Update 14/07/2008 in cron file
I noticed that some code instructions fail to work properly depending on the PhP version been used.
If you are running the v 1.35 TOTW on a weekly basis and if for some reason, your cron file failed to work and create a new nomination thread on Sunday 13, July 2008, please use the attachment "updated-cron-14-07-2008.zip". The following instructions are given in there.
1. Upload this file in the corresponding folder on your server (yoursite/yourforum/includes/cron/)
2. Run it manually to close the previous week poll. ACP -> Scheduled Task Manager -> Nominate Weekly Or Monthly Topic Mod -> Run
3. Open this file once more and search for these lines
Code:
// Delete this after having run the cron once.
$createNewThread = 1;
// End deletion
4. Delete that part and save the file
5. Re-upload the saved file in the corresponding folder on your server (yoursite/yourforum/includes/cron/)

Did you run the cron file manually to have the "Nomination Thread" created?
As for the display "August" or "July", I gave a reply in a previous post and added an option in the product whereby you can select to have displayed "August" or "July" in the poll title.
