There seems to be a 5000 character limit on articles. Does anyone know if this is adjustable?

I get this error during installation;

What exactly do I need to delete / drop from my database for a clean installation?

i have had a go at doing this myself but couldnt find what i had to remove in article.php. basically if you go to http://forum.pesinsight.com/article.php?a=1.... i want to get rid of the catagory background image (in the row with the article title)... because as you can see it messes it up. but i dont want to have to change my forum style because its fine elsewhere. so if i just wanted to remove it from the articles? how would i? i managed to get rid of the avatar myself but couldnt do the bg.

i also would like a hack to show the latest articles on non-vb page, maybe the last 10 (like you can do with the latest threads hack on non-vb page). i would be willing to pay a small amount if someone could do this.

Same problem here...

Hello,

I´m waiting for a Bugfixed Version for vB 3.0.3 , Hack removed

To many Probs :disappointed: :disappointed: :disappointed:

Greets

Ditto.

when I go to forum/article.php

I get a blank page :(

why is that?

oh yea I'm running 3.0.0

any chances that the problem is there? what should I do now?

make sure the templates have been added to each style

Can anyone tell me what I would need to change to show the date the article was submitted on the article list?

I've managed to do this by directly editing the database, but it's a pain - you have to edit the article table (change the category number), and also the category table (change things like last article, last comment, number of articles, etc.)

I agree, it would be great to be able to move the articles through the system itself.

Any chance of an update to vb3?

Like the hack, but so many bugs :(

i don't have time to...read all the topic, but i have a quick question.

How can i move an article ?

Sure, reading the entire topic is a bit much - but raising your gaze a couple of inches to the post above the one before yours isn't. ;)

Just installed on vb 3.03 but i am getting the following mysql error:

Database error in vBulletin 3.0.3:

Invalid SQL: SELECT * FROM article
WHERE categoryid=2 AND (articleuserid=1 OR open IN (0,1)) ORDER BY dateline DESC LIMIT 0,
mysql error: You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 2

mysql error number: 1064

Referer: http://www.weirdpixels.co.uk/forum/article.php

This happens when i click on a Category or sub Category
any ideas of what could be causing this?

everything is ok now, managed to figure out what was cauing the mysql error
Great hack, *clicks install

I am also waiting for the 3.0.3 SQL DB fix :)

I figured it out, I had to go to vB3 Articles menu in the main vbulletin settings and hit save :p

How would I go about making more than 1 situation of a articles board. For example, I want an articles board and a reviews board that are separate.. any ideas?

To clarify on my previous post, I want to make two different instances of this same hack. One for articles, the other for reviews, and possibly more in the future for other sections of my site. My question is this: How would I go about running two instances of this hack on my site with one vbulletin? I have tried changin all the "article" variable names to "review" but still ran into some trouble with duplicate database entries. I'm planning on creating different tables for the differetn instances. So which variables names need to be changed so that database entries and settings will not conflict? Please help John. Thanks.

Is it possible to hide the ARTICLES from the main forum....

I would like to create a entertainment section and query these articles based on the article type...

any suggestions.... is it possible?

Great Hack, thank you!

One Question:
Is there a way to import Threads from a whole section into an articlecategory?
Its surley hard to modify...

Can the system take more than 4 image attachments per article ?
If so, can anyone provide a screenie how they will be displayed ?

Much appreciated, thanks :D

Can not edit comment... :disappointed:

I have just installed this hack as it is perfect for my articles & interviews database for my Sandra Bullock community. Although I have a little problem with the attachments. I can view an attached image, but the thumbnail does not display. I have PHP 4.3.7 as ISAPI on Win 2003 Std installed and GD2 enabled in vB options and the thumbs of vB threads work, the thumb of vB articles don't work :( what could be the problem here? (have vB 3.0.3)

How can I let other administrators (not super administrators) to access the control panel?
I need someone to mondorate the catgolary for me. Thanks.

No, the attachments thumnails do not work with 3.0.3. The problem was brought up weeks ago, but still nothing has been fixed.

i think it might be better to hard code an image for the thumbs (until its fixed) that way you will get an image and name and they can click the image to see it ?

i will look at the hack see what i can do :)

I was considering just finding the template for displaying the thumbnails and having it produce a just a text link instead. Please let us know if you find anything!

I'm getting that same error now after upgrading to VBulletin 3.0.3 ... this was working fine in 3.0.1

Any help would be great!

Thanks!

how search the artides?

i also have a can't edit problem:

ok i found my answer in a SQL error in the script? back in post 114 and this worked for me.

just have to figure out why thumbnails don't show as an image. thumbnails on the forum work fine.

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=114

I've been wondering that too.

Is this hack still being supported?

It isnt being supported.. the author also ignores me on MSN.

Insert this HTML anywhere in a template within the default forums directory

To use it outside of the forums directory, hard code the bold text above.

How do you delete an individual article ?

I've just run into another problem. WHen you click the username of the person who posted the article. Instead of being taken to THEIR profile, I'm being taken to my own.

Seems to be an issue on your end, JaJ. That doesn't happen on my site...
