Any ideas anyone? logician?

Awesome hack, I have 2 questions though!

1. I have created my own footer, and have assigned my HTML page to it, and put $footer in my HTML, but it shows my default forum footer, instead of the custom one I created for these pages.

2. Is there a way to force a certain style to the custom pages?

Thanks :D

I'm getting errors with editors.php - whenever I (or an assigned editor, non-admin) goes to edit one of the pages, they can view the HTML code and can make the appropriate change but as soon as they press update they go to editors.php and receive a no permission error.

This is not something I can confirm when I test it in my enviroment. It sounds like you have a clashing hack issue. I appreciate if you can check if there is a clash with another hack. Please turn off all other hacks, let only webtemplates installed and test it out if this still happens. If this fixes, then you can enable other pluggins one by one until you find the culprit.

Logician, just done that with every plugin + product and it still didn't work. Could it be because I run 3.5.1? That's the best I can think of to be honest.

Or because I never un-installed/removed the old version of webtemplates before I upgraded from 3.0.x?

Ah ha, template revert = fixed. Cheers all.

What would you recommend using to create a home page that can integrate with all this other stuff?

you created your footer as a "webtemplate footer", not a regular footer template right? Also you made sure you set your webtemplate to use that footer in edit webtemplate page?

So, if one doesn't want to use any of a template's layout, they don't have to? They can use their own layout with the only vB-related thing being the link & of course the code?

Also, does it have pagination & a feature where people can make comments? The comments thing isn't really a big deal, as I can just make posts for that if there isn't one.

yes

no

What would you recommend using to create a home page that can integrate with all this other stuff?

Maybe you can use vbadvanced which is a good hack. Or check my FAQ about using webtemplates as site main page.

Good to know. I think I'll just use this instead of integrating a CMS.

very cool hack man, just made this here

Hey Everyone this is a great hack.. Can we you all share what you are using this for and the code? I would like to get more use for this hack and would like to see what everyone else is doing?

Hey Logician, I noticed that there was a spot to upload(import) templates via xmls. Is there a list of posted .xmls for templates avail anywhere?

I designed that structure so that people can share their webtemplate/webqueries with eachother easily. So it would make sense only if hack users post their own webtemplate designs. However unfortunately people don't use it.

Thanks for the quick reply. Oh, that sux. This is such a powerful hack and no one shares eh? darn

NickOr - which template was it man

Could someone help me with a web query?

I created a new profile field that asks a question (field8) and I need to see all the answers to that question on one page sorted by usergroup (usergroupid: 10)

First off, many thanks indeed for the hack!
Second, I will be implementing sa project soon within it, and when I have it all finished, I will learn how to make the .xml then post it in a new thread here, so your feature of sharing .xml's will get some input at last.

SELECT f.field8, u.username, u.usergroupid, u.userid
FROM user u
LEFT JOIN userfield f ON u.userid = f.userid
WHERE usergroupid =10

Yay, can't wait :banana:

Thanks! I put that in the Query box and in the Query Result Row area I put:

$WQfield[field8]

And in my webtemplate I put the call to that new webquery I created:

$WQ_newquery

But the field8 doesn't show up when I view the page. Any suggestions?

Defined that webquery in that webtemplate? (Edit Webtemplate, mark "WebQueries Used in This Page")

Yep, the box next to that webquery is checked.

Was I supposed to edit the query code you posted in any way?

Cant get it to install.. "Logician's webtemplates" never shows in the ACP. I see Logician's webtemplate settings, under VB options, but there is no export/import option to it to complet the install. I reloaded cpnav_webtemplates also no luck there either..

Little bit of help anyone??

I'm sorry if this has already been answered but I was not able to find it.
Is it possible to use webtemplates as a CMS and have it display pages?

for example if I want to compose a product review and it was 12 pages long
is there a way to use webtemplates to display page 1, 2 3 4 etc?

There is no automatic way, sorry! If you want to do it, you have to do it manually (ie split review into 12 different WTs and link eachother at the bottom of all).

I didn't see this message before. Is it you who emailed me and I replied? If not, do you still need help?

Yes I am the one that emailed, Still can't get it to work.. Deleted the whole thing re-downloaded and re-uploaded.. Loaded the file cpnav_webtemplates as ASCII.. Cant access the webtemplates ACP, If I try to go to it manualy I get this message:

Warning: main(./global.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /data/10/0/30/39/845854/user/866665/htdocs/forum/upload/forum/admincp/wt_wt.php on line 31

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required './global.php' (include_path='.:/usr/services/vux/lib/php') in /data/10/0/30/39/845854/user/866665/htdocs/forum/upload/forum/admincp/wt_wt.php on line 31

I don't see this file under /includes/

require_once(DIR .'/includes/adminfunctions_template.php');

And this is line 31..

require_once('./global.php');

If you are sure you applied installation instructions correctly and determined to have the hack, PM me FTP access to your server and vb admin cp access and let me install it for you.

I'm positive there is nothing wrong with the hack.

Does your board load fine? That file (adminfunctions_template.php) is a part of default vbulletin installation. If you don't see it, there is definetely something wrong with your vb installation.

Never mind I got it.. I had uploded the forum folder as it's own folder, instead of unpacking it into the appropriate areas... Sorry I am new to this stuff..

Appriceate all of the help :)

I'm kind of curious - does anyone use this like a wiki?

Wow great hack!

And does 'Who's Online' reconize the locations?

yes it does

Perfect!
Thx.

I have a question about this mod.

I am creating a new set of forums on my site and these forums will contain "articles" to which no one can reply. I want to have these "forum ids" contain a postbit that has a different look than my standard "threads and posts" since people cannot reply to these posts.

will this mod allow me to create custom pages to contain the content of these threads and posts (one post per thread).

thanks in advance.

How do I change the style in your hack?
I tried some stuff, but it aint working. I want to change the template style and background pic.:confused:
