:)

Thanks!

I always update the 1st post with the most recent version number, it's right at the bottom.

sv1cec,

in your upgradetolatestversion.txt instructions are two database querys

1) this query updates the AWS version number (obviously)
2) that query will add a column in the warning_options table called textbutoption

i'm not sure since i see other querys here are that all database querys whe need to run to upgrade to the latest version ? i don't use that other system i always used your AWS i'm on 3.1.2 and no we cannot stop butter you with questions but when it's working i'll send you some coffee lol :D

edit

my links in the memberinfo info template disapperd ??

my links in the postbit template are gone to :S

Did you copy the pictures to your web server? If you select the text option, do your links re-appear?

Oh, I wrote in the instructions that there is a new option, which controls the appearance of those links, didn't I? Go into your Warning System Options and check the option before the last. If you haven't set this, then your links will disappear.

- Upload new files

- Download all new mods
- Re-add all mods/check through


I don't have to use upgrade on the mods? just do it as new install?

You got me puzzled here, in the beginning, I though you were upgrading AWS from 3.0.3 to 3.1.3. You are going to upgrade vB from 3.0.3 to the latest, right?

Well, I got some news for you. Don't re-install your hacks. Get Beyond Compare or a similar program and just copy the modifications you have done in the 3.0.3 files to the 3.0.6 version files. Took me about 1 hour to do all of them, and I have about 20 hacks installed in my system.

One thing that will not work after the upgrade, is the Message Tag. For some wierd reason, every time I upgrade the vB software, the Message Tag option disappears. It' s easy to re-install it though, just run the last query from the installation script, which inserts a row in the setting table.

But the installationprocedure was no picknick, a lot of messing around in the code :) , and I'm no newbie...it would be great to have a more simple installation. Anyway, thanks for the help.

Well, I wish I knew a better way to do the file and the template updates, but I do not. You see, I am way past my programming days here, at 47. I just do this, because I use this hack in my own site, so I thought I could share the mods I did for myself, with the rest of you. Someone could create a hack which would make the file editing and the templates editing easier, that would be the hack of the year, not of the month, but definitely this is not going to be me.

Sorry :-(

Get Beyond Compare or a similar program?

Where can I get that?....

(message tag whats the start of the SQL start with)

Also if I was not using that and went through all the mods because I really want to update a few to newer versions do I just re-install the mods after the upgrade of vb to 3.0.6 or do I have to upgrade each mod .. with the updates from the different version numbers to the latest version

www.scootersoftware.com

The query for the message tag is this:

PHP Code:

INSERT INTO `".TABLE_PREFIX."setting` (varnamegrouptitlevaluedefaultvalueoptioncodedisplayorderadvancedvolatileVALUES ('messagetag''address''''''''35''0''1'

I've set the volatile to 1, which normally means that vB is not touching this setting when upgrading, still every time I upgrade, this setting is gone. I've posted a bug report, but so far no answer.

Upgrading your vB should better be done off line, or on a test server. You should download the latest vB (that can be a very frequent operation these days), and upload it to your server. Run the upgrade script, so that your forum works with the latest release. Then, start applying your hacks, one by one. Install one and test it. Then move to the next. Always keep a backup of the latest working version of your files and of your database.
