viPortfolio 1.2.6 Beta Release

======= =======
viPortfolio Version 1.2.6
======= =======

This is our first hack. And not our last. We have spent a lot of time polishing it for stability and interface. Thanks for the patience and support so far.
We have installed and tested in vBulletin 2.2.6. For those with older versions, please post your results.

Installation Instructions:

Extract the viPortfolio-1.2.6.zip file which will create a viPortfolio
subdirectory. Upload the directory to your root Web server directory where your forum code is located. From a Web browser run: http://{yourserver}/viPortfolio/install.php and follow the steps.

.: Remove the viPortfolio subdirectory after installation :.

We would appreciate any feedback regarding this hack. Interface, changes for future versions and so on. We will offer support for this hack - we will not be responsible for errors - as always, BACK UP YOUR data base.

We have spent a lot of time on this and all we ask is that our copyright notice remain in tact at the bottom of portfolio pages. Thanks!

Along with viPortfolio we are making use of a new install.php version 1.2.6. The install.php has not had the amount of testing that viPortfolio has. With that said we are looking for your assistance in notifying VisibleImpact.com of any error messages or difficulties you may have with the install.

*** Updated installer ****
I have totaly rewritten the installer to take out all the flash and make it a simple step by step install. Atleast I hope that is what it is It is definately worth trying.

Apok,
Did the new install give the same errors? I seen one or two places in the install program that were possible bug hideouts until I crushed them. I am hoping all you get is a bunch of debuggin messages and a have a nice day message

Inquiring minds want to know .

Getting closer. I only got this error:

Notice [1024] Could not copy file /home/apok/public_html/forums/viPortfolio/viIcons/blank.jpg to /home/apok/public_html/forums/images/viIcons/blank.jpg

Warning message on line 712 of file /home/apok/public_html/forums/viPortfolio/install.php , PHP 4.2.1 (Linux)


viIcons/blank.jpg to /home/apok/public_html/forums/images/viIcons/blank.jpg

I then went to the Control Panel...and the box w/ the link for Edit Portfolio is all black (can't see the link). And when you click it, you get a page not found error.

You get this error when you try to edit your portfolio via your profile:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected $ in /home/apok/public_html/forums/member.php on line 1490

There weren't any other errors that were displayed during the install. And I installed the Paperclip and Profile hack via vbhack

I have some workarounds for you. These fixes are here but in the full download. If you were to get the 1.2.3 version those errors would be gone.

first workaround:
edit member.php

go to the very bottom of the file you should see this:
// parse this next line with eval:
$sendtoname=$destuserinfo[username];
eval("standardredirect(\"".gettemplate("redirect_s entemail")."\",\"usercp.php?s=$session[sessionhash]\");");
}
?>

You are supposed to have another } above the ?>. Insert the } on the line before the ?> so that you have:

// parse this next line with eval:
$sendtoname=$destuserinfo[username];
eval("standardredirect(\"".gettemplate("redirect_s entemail")."\",\"usercp.php?s=$session[sessionhash]\");");
}
}
?>

About your link in the control panel being black.

I am going to have to look into that a little further. Can you get the link that menu choice points to? I think if you float over the link you should be able to see were it points to. If you have to type it I don't need the ?s=1235098274350943 stuff. mine points to http://{mysite}/dev1/admin/options.php?t=0#settinggroup36

that is after I took out the session information, ?s= stuff

We need to give a Humungous thank you to Dark_Wizard. He took one look at my code and new I should be applying at burgerking come monday.

Thanks for the eagles eyes Dark_Wizard, that was a great catch on figuring out what was wrong!

[Apok2002]

Uninstalling, and will do a clean install of the latest version. We're gonna get this damnit! lol

If it gives probs w/ the usercp again, I'll post it. It was definately the usercpnav template. Also, the black box appeared again in the member profile where Posts were. You couldn't see how many posts there were. I'll make a screen shot if it happens again.

*crosses fingers*....

[Apok2002]

ack! It went back to the first error above:

Creating tables...




The script reported errors in the installation of the tables. Only continue if you are sure that they are not serious.

The errors were:

Error number: 1064

Error description: You have an error in your SQL syntax near '; ' at line 1

Here is the full sql query:

It's the semicolon error again. I can use the install.php update that you posted earlier..but I was under the impression that it was included in this .zip file. I'll wait for your response before I proceed.

[Apok2002]

Installed 1.2.5 fine...but....when I try to access anyone's profile...I get this error:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected $ in /home/apok/public_html/forums/member.php on line 1490

I also get that above error, for the 1st 4 options in the the User CP.

The Edit Portfolio link returns w/ a Page not Found error. This is the url it tries to go to:

http://www.ez-company.net/forums/viPortfolio.php?action=edit

(aslo, the black box appears again, I'll post a screen shot)

The black box aslo appears in the Member list where the Posts column appears.

And the columns are incorrect in the member list (screen shot coming).

Also, the viPortfolio.php file was never installed, I manually uploaded it.

EDIT
After I uploaded the viPortfolio.php file, I was able to edit the Portfolio via the darkened link in the UserCP. This was the ONLY change however. All of the other mentioned bugs are still there.

[Apok2002]

Here is the memberlist. See how the catagories are all misaligned? Also, the last column is blackened...how do I fix?

memberlist.JPG removed...

Below is the UserCP. The first 4 options don't work (they give you the error mentioned above). Also, the last column is darkened. I have 3 themes to select from on my site...however, since I can't access the Options, I can't select a different theme to see what they look like.

usercp.JPG removed....

EDIT

I removed the pics since I changed servers. If you want them back up Teddy so you can reference what I'm talking about I can upload them and link them to the new server, np.

[Apok2002]

Making some progress though. Earlier I had thought that all the options in the UserCP didn't work. I was wrong. The last 4 do work. Including Edit Portfolio (the darkened box).

Here is a ss of it. How do we get rid of all the Q's?

portfolio.JPG removed... (see above post)


EDIT

Also just noticed, that the viPortfolio Settings in the AdminCP do not show. The link for them is there...but when you click on it...it takes you down the page where they SHOULD be...but there is nothing there except the catagory name "viPortfolio Settings" followed by the Save Changes and Reset buttons.

[TeddyBare69]

I am looking into these issues. I should have some fixes as early as monday.
