Upgraded code from v2.2.2 to v2.2.4
Hi.
As many discussed here, I'm out now with the awaited upgrade hack from VBulletin v2.2.2 to the lastest available release. First of all, thanks to PPN for the idea and his last good job. But I did it myself as I need it now and somewhere else was said it shouldn't be released before a week ... (see here) Hwr. I wouldn't be faster than anybody; simply I did it for my needs and just tried to publish here... :rambo: Note: the 2.2.3(b/c) was a very 'strange' and dynamic release. The newer and lastest 2.2.4 seems much more 'stable' as the last four days never changed. Hwr. please be always updated following vBulletin 2 Bug Reports and vBulletin 2 Troubleshooting and Problems... This procedure should only replace the 'upload from scratch' part in updating VBulletin. You shall apply the same the upgradeXX.php and replace templates. Hopefull, ASAP, I'll write down a similar text for template upgrades from 2.2.2 Exactly, versions reported here are: - VBulletin v2.2.2 of Feb 4, 2002 - VBulletin v2.2.4 of Mar 12, 2002 Please pay attention because, each new release, within next 2-3 days some files are often modified. So, be sure you have downloaded from http://www.vbulletin.com/members the very lastest release. Ok. Let me know any problem or addon you could find. Thanks |
cool :) will update l8er ... THX for your work!
Flogge |
]too late... allready updated myself ;)
nice work anyway! |
Already did it with Araxis Merge last night, but well done! :)
|
nice
finally someon make it. |
was waiting for it..;) Thx for sharing! :)
|
Too late... ;) Sorry.
But as said elsewhere, first somebody - me too - prepared the code for 2.2.3, later for 2.2.3b and VB developers said should be better to wait for at least a week. Meanwhile 2.2.4 raised and now the week is expired... :) That's all. Bye P.S. I would use a tag: teach people to fish instead of giving them fishes... |
Nice work Jawelin, thanks.
|
Just one smiley to describe it all... :D
|
Great work. Someone should stick this for sometime IMO.
|
I have a questio about upgrating and all. Do i just use this hack and i'm set? or do i do this hack first, then use the upgrade files? Or do i use the upgrade files and use the hack?? nice hack tho nonetheless!
|
Use the hack, then run upgrade16.php and upgrade17.php to update your templates. You can download these from vbulletin.com
|
what if there's a whole bunch of things that i can't find with this hack? Cause i have way too many hacks myself? Should i not upgrade at all? Or should i just re-install with the 2.2.4 version and backup the database so my posts aren't lost? ahhhhh ..nooooooo!!!!
|
Download a file comparison utility like Araxis Merge, and just use it to copy hacks over. It is actually faster than manually doing it.
If you just install 2.2.4 (ie. upload the files and run install) you will lose all your hacks. |
exactly, that's my pint. Araxis Merge costs moeny I believe so that kinda sux. I don't think hacks for 2.2.4 will be much different than 2.2.2 so i won't both upgrading now since all my hacks will be screwed. I'll wait for 3.0.0 or something and i'll switch completely and start hacking over agaain. thx anyway!
|
yeah, thanks for this. :)
i already upgraded myself, but i was interested to check the changes out here regardless. |
What templates are modified by the upgrade files?
|
i only ran upgrade17.php....did i screw something up? can i just run upgrade16.php and then upgrade17.php again? What Do I Do?
|
Your text file also doesn't include line breaks for me - anyone else?

Oh by the way, the line breaks are in your file, it was a problem my end. Thanks for the info. :)

any one? |
isn't the only thing this upgrade fixes is a problem with guest posting?
If you don't allow you guests to post, then is shouldn't be a problem right? |
After using this hack to do the upgrade, my "New Post" button has completely disappeared, and the "Edit Reason" field has stopped working.
Would anyone have any ideas as to what's happened? |
Just a little upgrade.
As usual, in the very next days after a release, something changes. Well. Now (first on yesterday's release) on VB 2.2.4 was changed memberlist.php. I could suggest you to re-download the 2.2.4 version and entirely upload that file to your forumhome directory or, apply this new change on your 2.2.4 version: In memberlist.php, replace PHP Code:
PHP Code:
Hope this could be useful... again. Bye :knockedout: |

You can put it into your TEMP dir... :cool: It's a .txt file to edit and follow instructions, not a .php script to run... :knockedout: P.S.: this is needed ONLY if you have an hacked board... of course. Otherwise use the normal upgradeXX.phps .... :knockedout: |
As promised, here is the complete (small... ;)) TEMPLATE list affected by the upgrade v2.2.2 -> v2.2.4 process.
These are all the (default) templates automatically updated by the upgradeXX.php procedure. But if you have customized any of them, you won't get the custom version updated, only the default one. So, you shall upgrade yourself all custom templates with the following scheme (I used the same notation of the php code). Hope it helps. Thanks |
Thanks for the great hack, I've got everything working, except when I post something new, it gives me this error.
Database error in vBulletin 2.2.4: Invalid SQL: SELECT title FROM thread WHERE threadid= mysql error: You have an error in your SQL syntax near '' at line 1 mysql error number: 1064 Date: Wednesday 27th of March 2002 05:10:14 PM Script: http://www.federationstudios.net/for.../newthread.php Referer: http://www.federationstudios.net/for...ead&forumid=23 Any ideas? |
Nevermind, it had to do with a DB editing line that I forgot to reapply my donations hack to.
|
Any idea why my un-edited templates are no longer shown in the edit template script?
