FAQ:
What Does It Do? it enables your members to apply to be a mod, cuts down on all the asking and stuff

That It? basically

What about the cool back end? ooh yeah, so anyway it will email on the 14th day to either let em know they've been shortlisted or to try again at a later date

How will it know? mod ratings innit, if their under 7 their outta there

Anything else? nah i guess it starts a thread in your mod forum to tell your mods to rate em

How does it know what forum and who's the threadster? you tell em via the admincp options (where the rest of the vboptions are) theirs a handy little group for the MAF and i don't mean 2+2

Ok so that's gotta be it now? nope

What else does it do? it logs it all in the admincp schedules tasks and sends you a copy of the email

Damn who taught you all that? various folks, special thanks to Dean, Marco, OBK and Zero Tolerance who helped me on this specific hack though.

Ok so what's the install like? swift the long thing is the upload

Ok rumour is it needs to run a cron, what's a cron? :squint: it's the automated do-dad in the admincp

How do i set it up? it's so straight forward you could close your eyes and do it, the file you're cronning is called "maf-cron.php" and i recommend running it at 12.30 (that means leave the rest as stars)

Ok so if their an installer? there is indeed thanks to Link and his magical HIS

Well now that's sorted can i install it? please do!

How can i help you become cooler? click install and let's see if i can become hack of the month innit

Bye now? yes go :ermm:

So you heard their was an upgrade and you're wondering just what you have to do right? simply reupload all the files (not including your cron if you wanna be special and then just run the installer, if that gives you trouble just click overrite original settings, all it's gonna do it reinstall the phrases, reinstall the templates and tell you the two file mods to remake.

So you heard their was an upgrade this time around? simply reupload all the files (if you wanna pretend to be uber 1337 just upload the admincp file and the cron folder file)

the last of the file edits are contained in the installer you have to finish that.

sketch42 · #**326** 07-10-2005, 08:29 AM

how do i run this cron thing.. i followed the instructions edited all the files... including the maf_cron.php and admin and modcp index.php fixed all the settings in the vboptions but i still cant figure out where to go to run this cron daily.. i dont see any options for it

***Edit*** forget that i figured it out its in schedueled tasks

ok but i have another problem i made one app and i got 2 threads after i ran the cron
also theres no information in the thread as wgere to go to rate the applicants

***Edit2*** lol. forget that too i found it...

but is it possible for the thread to be created as the applicants name in the description or something like that??
and i still have that 2 thread problem

Thanks

Xray

well these are the queries i could find that are in the databse

Code:

<?php

// The query should probably be enclosed by '
// Be sure you include TABLE_PREFIX
// Replace 'build' with either 'new', 'uninstall', or the build number the query is meant to upgrade FROM.

$query['uninstall'][] = 'DROP TABLE `maf_application`;';
$query['uninstall'][] = 'DROP TABLE `maf_ratings`;';
?>

there may be more but its late so i didnt finish looking

also if you want this is the contents of the uninstaller

PHP Code:


			
<?php

you should be able to copy and paste that into a new file and call it uninstall.php and run it. although i dont see how it would make a difference since i just copied it and it crashed on you before but hey worth a try
