Thats weird, can you PM me admin details and FTP details to just that folder (images/toplist/) so I can take a look at it?

Thanks

Since vB 3.6 Beta 1 is out now, I will release 1.0.8 soon and begin porting this hack to 3.6. School is almost over for the summer so I will have a lot more time to work on adding more features to this hack

Hey Everyone,

I have released version 1.0.8. Please see the first post for the changes. Many new features have been added, such as a feature that checks to see if the user added their In url to their site and if so it activates them either via a cronjob or they can do it by going to a url. This is an optional feature, it can be disabled in the settings. Please see the readme for instructions on how to install or upgrade this hack. Also, please let me know if you have any problems with this hack, I will try and fix them ASAP.

Thanks,

Derek

Upgrade was smooth as silk and new options are fantastic! Scrolling option on forum home is GREAT also. Hope not too server intensive though... I am sure my awesome host will let me know.
Great job Derek. Wish I could click Thank you or Install again.

I am trying to open the image.png with photshopCS and I get this error

Could not complete your request because the file format module could not parse the file.

WTF?

Let me know if you have any problems.

I am not seeing the marquee on my forum home and the code is not there either.

I have a few questions.

When i submit a site or someone else does why is site shown on the toplist on forumhome and the site is inactive. I think that is a bug.

Other thing how does that Check if code has been added to user's site work. Is there any button or something that will check that or??

And buttons dont work in admincp.

Mr.D · #**759** 06-08-2006, 05:24 AM

When i try to validate i get this error Could not find phrase 'error_toplist_site_pending_moderation'.

In admincp when i click Toplist sites and i want to edit it this message appears Sorry, you must select a Site ID to edit a site. Please go back and try again.

Nope, the scrolling option is not server intensive

You don't open that in CS, you have to open it in a program such as notepad or wordpad. It is a PHP file and not an image. If you want to change the background you can edit background.png I think the filename is.

It shouldn't be a bug, it was working fine for me. I'll take a look again and see.

Hmm, I thought I added that phrase. I might have accidentally selected a different product for it, I'll take a look. For your 2nd problem, make sure when you hover over the link it says something like &id=somenumber
