[Re- Release of the Mood Hack Version 2.03]

Seems like a fitting version for the mood hack. After the work, and re-tooling that has went in to it, i could not be more pleased.
For those who have already installed it, the only file that will not need to be reinstalled, is the vbmoodinstall.php file. (tables)

We will not support this hack, if you had previously added the mood hack, downloaded this new hack version, and tried to get the old mood hack working by making a few changes here and there based off the new information provided. No matter what, it all must be replaced except your tables from the vbmoodinstall.php file.

I know..it is going to take time..however, the new version is what we are supporting, and nothing else.
Everything needs to be replaced, which should be rather simple, considering you already have it done, and know where everything is at.

The instructions are in a step by step format. There are extra text files included, that will help you modify your mood5 template.
All modifications to the script are pointed out in the mood hack step one text file.
Be sure to read those instructions, otherwise you will not know that we changed the star format from a needed upload to your smilies area, to a direct hard code to the image in the functions.php file.
There are other things just like this new change...so please read everything!!

We had this working, rite out of the box, on two different servers, and one of those was baldbouncers, so I know, that we got it rite this time.

For those who are now just downloading the mood hack for the first time, follow the directions to the "T" and you should have a trouble free hack, rite out of the box.

Ok, here we go:

I sure hope I am posting this in the right place. I have followed everythign to the "T".. when I go run the install. I get this..

The requested URL /cp.css was not found on this server.

Any idea on how to fix this?
Thanks in advance.

you have the install file in the wrong area of your files. you have to have the install file, in your vb root directory. The style sheet it is looking for, is your vb style sheet.

I followed the directions, but need to know where to enter info for the mood - per the modifications.txt file it's automaticly linked to my smiley file (which is I've got a fairly extensive smiley collection that I didn't want to reload) but I'm not seeing how to set this up as 'joe member'.

Does this come from the control panel? I'm just not seeing where/how this is activated from a member perspective... I followed through the steps and I'm not seeing an option on how to change moods/set up moods.

Maybe the next release i will add it, because it would be pretty simple, but my feelings for releasing anything here free of charge anymore is slowly dwindling due to the sudden resurgance of BS towards free released hacks in general.

for one, you need to name your smilies, to the code you want to represent the dropdown "mood" or "reason" etc. so, if there is a smiliey in your smiliey collection on your board, that lets say...represents pissed off (which i am currently)
and you have added "pissed off" for a mood, than your code should look like this

<OPTION VALUE=":<">Pissed Off</OPTION>

the smiliey "code" is in between the " "

These changes, are made in the mood5 template...

secondly, in the instructions, there is a description, of adding a link to connect to the mood.php file. That is how all members enter their information.

Third, there is no member options. The mood hack is either on, or not installed. The only option, is a option that most choose, that just displays the java button for the mood.
The only thing that shows in the post bit area, is the mood button, and not the text for (mood: reason: etc..). That way, if a user does no enter information into the mood, you wont have blank spaces in your post bit area, behind the text that describes the mood, reason...etc...just the button....people have to click on the button, to see the mood of any user, who has posted in a particular thread.

and last but not least...please...read the instructions...this was all covered in there. all of it.
