Check the newthread.php code, that's why you cannot post a new article properly.
Make sure you use a good php editor.

Techie]I know i should have read all the articles and etc. But theres 222 pages to this hack so i'll just ask it here. Does this work with vb beta 6? because i would really like to install it on a site with beta 6. Help is appreciated :)

here's my newthread.php file.

what's wrong with it? i edited it per the directions
if someone can fix it, and email to admin@cablemirc.com, i'd be much obliged
thanks!

(if for some reason the attachment did'nt work)

Will there be a version for vB 3.x ?

i'd even be happy that if someone running 2.3.2 can show THIER (working and edited) newthread.php

actually, that was'nt it. the "forum id" was assumed to be the "forum order id" that i used when i set up the forums in the CP.. hovering over the actual link for the Web Site News forum, i found it's "true" forumid. it works now.

Can someone now answer will there ever be a release for vb3.x ? Or will this work with vb 3.x?

from what i understand, there will be no version for vb 3.x
all the features of vbhome (lite) will become part of cpublisher (lite), the free version of his upcoming stand alone product.

teck... i really like vbhome (lite). i'd love support for editing the page layout, and would be interested in the full version. if i bought it so late in the game, are you going to offer a decent discount for current vbhome customers? is there still a support forum somewhere for vbHome? where do i buy a full version with support?

It will be available at cpublisher.com, when ready. Discounts are planned only for HiveMail users, so far.
We need to contact Jelsoft also and ask them if they would like to associate with our team.

when will the cpublisher.com site be up and running

Installed it today on a test server on v2.3.2 ..all is VERY well :) ..thanks TECK...have the following question if its cool:

- I have added a few menu/nav buttons in the CP header code of the forum, how do i mirror these for the vBHome index page ?

- How do i configure the colours etc for the vBHome index page/header and footer areas ? I have read TECK say its in the cp.css file but i cant change the text colour ...

- If i have a picture in an article post, is there a way to have the image aligned left, and have the text continue to the right of it....or do we have to have an image, and then lots of vacant horizontal space and then the text ?

Thats about it for now :) Cant wait for cpublisher, but guess ill have to :p

Cheers

Paul

You can add them to the 'home_header' template in the Home Page Templates group

Colors are all defined in the home_headinclude template in the same group as above. You'd have to hunt down the class you're trying to edit and make the changes there

If you have html enabled you should be able to add align="left" to your img code. The text will wrap around it then. Add a hspace="10" or vpsace="10" to seperate the text and image a bit. If you're not using html, you might have to create a new vbcode that does this for you...

Thanks a lot mate!!! Great stuff!! ... i have enabled HTML in the source forum that i am using with vBHome, what exact syntax do i need to use to get an imagine aligned left, and the relevant text aligned right, also, how do i let vBHome know that it needs to use HTML ?? (do i need to ??)...

Cheers again for your help

Paul

OK, update, i have my source forum working beautifully with HTML, how do i get vBHome to mirror the same HTML format ?? I have enabled HTML in the Admin CP for the source forum, how do i enable it for vBHome ...any clues ??

Cheers

Paul

Hey everyone. I'm having one hell of a problem getting my 'login' to work with this hack.

Whenever I try to login from my homepage, it takes me to my forum homepage. When I return to my homepage, it always says 'Welcome, Visitor.' and never displays login information.

Can anyone help me with this problem? I've tried for days and nothing's worked.

I run VB 2.3.2 and installed this hack (version 4.2) clean (not an upgrade).

Thanks a ton!!

new wishlist item ;)

Is it possible to have vbhome support 'sticky threads' ?? ie: if i make a post sticky, will it stay at the top of the order on the vbhome page ??

Cheers again

Paul

unable to have users post replies/comments
they are able to go through the motions, and it adds to thier post count, but nothing shows in the news forums. only admins and moderators have been able to reply, even when i set "registered" users to be able to post and reply, etc etc in forum permission settings.

using vbulletin 2.3.2, thanks.

okay, figured that one out.. helps if the forum isn't moderated. :P


this one's the PIMA now... the template header has a miscoded URL that's not duplicated elsewhere in the script.... or something..

http://www.clubprotege.com/index.php...

obvoiusly, as you can see, it's all up and running...
in the source code for the page, you find

}
.bgheader {
background-image: url('http://www.clubprotege.com/forum//forum/images/menu_background.gif');
text-align: left;
vertical-align: top;
}

I OBVIOUSLY botched a replacement somewhere...
i know i set forums home as http://www.clubprotege.com/forum/
i know i set imagehome as /forum/images/
hence the problem.

but where do i got to fix both of these? i looked in replacements, but when i change /forum/images/ to just /images i lose the buttons.... i suppose it's a conflict between the two. any guesses?

Will this work for 2.2.6

Hey, ?? where is the download file? sorry to bother you beacuse lm newbie to this site.

I have installed a vBhome, When l visit my home page. The vBhome are working well but the only problem is some images are not working... i.e

http://www.x-sector.net/{imageshome}/top_calendar.gif

Like this.

Oh yeah, I just changed the code {imageshome} to forums/images, then when l visit my homepage... the images still not working.. I check the images links, they still has a {imageshome} formats. Why is that?

and where is the Articles Indexer option?

I searched the thread, yet i cannot find an answer to this error:

Database error in vbHome 2.3.2:

Hey, it worked.. i had sorted the problem out, it look pretty cool. Goob job man :)

can i just hire some one to do this?

To install it ?
Email me on info@vBulletin.nl to explain what you want.

Can someone please give me a detailed example on how to make forums appear on the home page with pictures, like for advertisement or how to re-arrange the home page to my liking...I can't seem to figure this one out...I know this is a stupid question, but I do need some explaination on how to set up the portal...

Thanks

well, i got an only problem:
the articals do display in the home page, BUT they show nothing. There is no words in those articals :( , yet i set 6000 per one.
what do i do, masters ?

i get this error

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/whitey/public_html/index.php:2) in /home/whitey/public_html/forums/admin/functions.php on line 1714

on my main page www.pittspeed.com

Its there add-on for polls - I want to display random polls, and if the user has rated, those, which he has not seen,

And is there a possibility to add my own blocks to the left side? Maybe some instructions for doing that?

I have installed a few hacks but I am fairly new to vbulletin.

Can anyone explain this part a bit clearer for me.

Open vBulletin Admin Control Panel and a new {imageshome} replacement variable to your full website URL, like that:
Replacements > Add

and enter the following information:REPLACEMENT SET
(your choice here)
CODE TO FIND
{imageshome}
CODE TO INSERT
forum/images

Change the code to insert to match your forum location. Save the replacement variable.

The rest I understand but this has lost me completely, sorry!

well, do this, buddy:
login to your adminCP--> look at the left side, roll down to the end--> what out the "Replacements"--> chose add in "Add | Modify | Add Set " -->"Code to find" type in {imageshome--->"CODE TO INSERT" type in forum/images .
Type wisely the url of your beloved board.
Clearer ?

for a price can anyone install this for me e-mail blockboy@huhbrah.com

what ? a price ?
i dont think this is too hard for everyone to install like that :(
just follow the instruction in the readme html file, it should be ok

Ok i've been looking all over this forum but havent found the answer to this:

from the manual: "First, click on vBulletin Options link. You will see a new group created by the installer, called vbHome Page"

I did two reinstalls on a fresh vb 2.3.2 setup and the option just aint showing in my admin menu?

Any ideas?

It's called "Front Page" ...
And everything works ok.

I'll install it for you for 100,000 bucks!
*looks around* what? I need the money. :rolleyes:

It's way easy to install, but if you insist I'd do it for you. But I do need the money. ^^;; No no no, not that 100,000 bucks. :p YOu tell me and I'd think about it. lol

About the vbhome. I have the journal hack installed, can we insert something that states the top 5 (or more) journal entries? Thanks in advance.

www.x-sector.net

Hopes that helps...It did for me!
