Here it is what is new in vbHL 4.2: 1. optimized the queries for large boards 2. added the backend.php file (XML feeder, so you can syndicate your news and forums) 3. made a new installer, easier to use Keep in mind that the new installer is all-in-one tool. It will let you install, uninstall, update the old threads that are not displayed correctly and also update your templates, if you upgraded your vBulletin version. Also the [high]XML feeder[/high] will let you syndicate the news and latest forum discussions to any RSS compliant tool. The most popular ones are Trillian and KlipFolio, but you can also import it in others. Check the TW.com Instructions Page to see how you can set it up. Upgrade to vbHome (lite) 4.2 (from 4.1) Do NOT start adding crazy stuff from old vBulletin header, footer, etc. It will not work. Instead check the code changes and edit them accordingly. Since vbHL 4.x changed completely related to the variables usage and templates code, you will need to uninstall the old version and re-install the new one. To do this, follow those steps: 1. Uninstall the current version script using [high]the OLD install[/high] file. 2. Delete all OLD files from your server. 3. Open the NEW readmefirst file and follow the instructions. In conclusion, upgrade asap. You don't have anymore the old file? The only version still available is v3.8.

Read more at the support forums. Copyright and Permissions - [high]ARE YOU READING THIS?[/high] 1. You [high]are NOT[/high] allowed to REMOVE or MODIFY the copyright text at the bottom of the page, or to ALTER in any way the URL links listed there. [high]First[/high], vbHome (lite) uses vBulletin functions, so it's part of it. If you must keep the Jelsoft copyright at the bottom of your vBulletin forums, then it should be present also in vbHome (lite) page(s). The only part you can remove from the copyright is the vBulletin and vbHome (lite) version, same like in your forums. If you paid the $600US fee to have the vBulletin copyright removed, then you have permission to remove also the vbHome (lite) text and link. [high]Second[/high], is the time I consumed on this script to provide you with a free, reliable and performant piece of software. If you use it, all I ask in return is to leave the links intact. Click here to see how it looks the copyright note at the bottom. 2. You [high]are NOT[/high] allowed to REDISTRIBUTE the contents of the .zip file. 3. You [high]are NOT[/high] allowed to post any parts of the code either here on the thread or somewhere else. Basically you follow the same rules as vBulletin does, if you are not allowed to post pieces of code from vBulletin, then the same rule apply to vbHome (lite). 4. You [high]are NOT[/high] allowed to COPY ANY PARTS of the code and use it for distribution. In other words, you can run the script for personal(web site) use only. No part of the code may be copied, altered in any way, then distributed in a different package. This includes removing any part of the code to be included in any other version or re-release. 5. You are allowed to add, remove or modify any part of the included code. [high]If you do NOT agree, please do not install this script.[/high] If you are not happy with the rules listed above, please feel free to install other similarly scripts that will add on your page 50-100 queries and crash your server. The code I made can cope very easy with a large amount of users online, in fact is optimized for large web sites. Installation Tips - [high]ARE YOU READING THIS?[/high] I have provided support to those that have had problems, that insisted that they did indeed read the help file, when in fact they did not, because when I went through the steps with them, they realized they missed something, ALWAYS. Support will only be given to those that have thoroughly read the [high]readmefirst.htm[/high] file included with the script. All of your questions are specifically answered in this file. If you continue to have problems, it's because: A. You did not read the included help file. When you read it, take the time to read every line of it, not just what you like. B. You edited the code incorrectly. Mixing the "BELOW ADD" with "REPLACE WITH" expressions is inadmissible, that's English, not Chinese. C. You were in a rush to install this and missed a step. Take a coffee or whatever you want and 30min of your free time and the script will install without a hinch. D. All of the above. If you want to display nice locations in your online.php file, like for example [high]Main Index[/high] and [high]Forum Main Index[/high], read more here. __________________________________________________ __ NOTE: As a thank you for using my script, please click on the INSTALL button. You will receive updates in your e-mail, whenever I add new features to it and it will let me evaluate better the quality of my hacks. Also post a reply with your comments. Your opinion is important to me. BEFORE YOU ASK A QUESTION, SEARCH THE THREAD OR THE SUPPORT FORUMS. [high]I will not answer anymore to any questions in this thread, that's why we have forums.[/high] CANNOT GET THE LATEST VERSION? CLEAR YOUR BROWSER TEMP FILES. [high]Why did you scrolled down without reading the copyright??[/high] Scroll up and read the copyright. Thanks. Important Update [high]Please update your footer link to the new web site:[/high] cpublisher.com The old link (teckwizards.com) has expired. Thank you. Show Your Support

I don't know if this came up before because I can't read all 107 posts.
Setup went well, easy as pie, but this Database Invalid SQL: SELECT COUNT(*) AS threads, SUM(IF(forumid<>, 1, 0)) AS threads, SUM(IF(forumid=, 1, 0)) AS headlines FROM thread WHERE lastpost>1035159939 mysql FROM thread WHERE l' at line 2 mysql Date: Sunday 20th of October 2002 11:10:59 PM Script: http://www.mysite.com/forum/forum/index.php Referer: |

TECK, I'm glad you're around. Hopefully you can help me out.
I first installed this on a test board. Had a little problem, as you can see by my previous post. Resolved the problem simply by rewriting the path and uploading the index.php once again. But now installing on my regular board brings another There seems to have been a slight problem with the THE PLACE database. Please try again by pressing the refresh button in your browser. This doesn't tell me much. I suspect the problem might be with my path. Here's what I did in the index.php file: chdir('/home/mysite/public_html/forum'); Uploaded index.php to my public_html directory. Presumably www.mysite.com/index.php should bring it up, right? I have no idea because I'm very dumb about these things. |

Dear Readers,
first of all I want to thank Teck a lot for this awesome Hack. The potential of it nearly seems unlimited, and I got lots of ideas how to design and tweak it, but I got some serious problems with the install, as I'm morely some Web Designer than a Hacker, and my Knowlegde of DB and Server Structure isn't that good. I ask you for your help and apologize for any Inconveniance I make to you: Some general Things: vB Home Lite url is http://gslallianz.de my Forums are at the sub-Domain http://foren.gslallianz.de (if you want, take a look at them, they're about 1 Months old ) Here is what I did during Installation Process: Step 1: I made a copy of http://foren.gslallianz.de/admin/template.php and added PHP Code:
Step 2: Made a copy of http://foren.gslallianz.de/member.php and replaced the passages as told by you. Step 3: Made a copy of http://foren.gslallianz.de/newthread.php and replaced the passages as told by you. Step 4: Opened vBHL index.php and edited the passage. As I did not know what to fill in there, I copied info.php on the domain and the subdomain, and it told me the following: gslallianz.de: /www/htdocs/thesaint/info.php foren.gslallianz.de: /www/htdocs/cea/info.php I tried out filling in PHP Code:
PHP Code:
Step 6: Changed Imagesfolder to http://foren.gslallianz.de/images and deleted $bburl/ in front of https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/images (no spaces) in the templates bbcode and standarterror Step 7: Edited all Smilies Step 8: Edited the Avatars Step 9: Renamed Moderators to Journalists Step 10: Created the new Forum Step 11: copied index.php to http://gslallianz.de copied printarticle.php and newthread.php to http://gslallianz.de/forum copied template.php to http://gslallianz.de/forum/admin copied the images to http://gslallianz.de/forum/images Then I wanted to coll up http://gslallianz.de/forum/admin/vbhlinstall.php but all I get is blank pages everywhere. I have no Idea how to solve this Problem, so I told you as detailed as I can, what I did, and hope you can help me. I apologize for my english, but as I'm from Germany I got some difficulties to describe these Problems. Sincerely, TheSaint-AeD |
