Thanks to Bane there has been a complete reworking of the installation/instructions for this hack. It is now up to date for 2.0.3 and the installer runs exactly like the vB install/upgrade scripts do.

There is no demo as I don't currently use stars on my board.

For version: 2.0.3

Files needed: stars.php

Files to edit: newthread.php, newreply.php, admin/misc.php, admin/index.php, admin/usergroup.php, register.php and possibly stars.php

Templates to edit: postbit

Instructions: Upload install_starshack.php and stars.php to your admin directory. Go to example.com/admin/install_starshack.php and login, then follow the on-screen instructions.

Upgrade information: If you have previously installed the stars hack, make sure you choose the "upgrade" option on the screen mentioned in the instructions. If you have previously installed this version (using install_starshack.php), you MUST STILL use the upgrade option even if you are reinstalling or you will get database errors.

Please DO NOT contact me via AIM, ICQ, PM, or email about this hack. Post your question/problem here and I will try to help you.

Feedback appreciated.

Considering nowhere in my instructions do I have you do anything with anything relating to userfield, that has nothing to do with my hack...

I was thinking the same thing to but what do you think is wrong with it? Also, whats with the usergroup.php parsing out on line 240 something or another...

I have no hack in the register page btw, so cant seem to figure it out, works before I put this hack ... hmm

T-Dogg, cool hack as usual, but I have a few problemos.

When installing, it says there are (4) changes to be made to the postbit template, yet there is only one change documented. I think this is just a minor type in the file.

Also, I have run through the install process. The stars show up great!

But......, something happened during the install and now I have lost all of the "profile" link buttons which appear under each post.

Any ideas?

Well I tried the update with no luck. Such a simple thing and it didn't work. I don't know PHP very much more of a script kiddie but, it must be getting an error because of somewhere else in the script. Maybe it doubles like that somewhere else I'll do my best to look but I can't make any promises.

Below is the error message I keep getting sent. I installed the script as informed from before now I have used the update.txt and this is the error I get. Also again when members sign up they get an error then refresh and it says that user name is already taken. It no loger doubles in mySQL but I get in error instead. Someone please help me this is causing a lot of trouble.

Database error in vBulletin: Invalid SQL: INSERT INTO userfield (userid,field5,field4,field3,field2) VALUES (,'','','','')
mysql error: You have an error in your SQL syntax near ''','','','')' at line 1

Lubi,

Why not start freash? Uninstall everything, or better yet do a fresh install since the forum isn't up yet.

It appears you have installed several hacks at once, and got something wrong in the process. This will allow your users to sign-up and login. Next, install a test forum to practice hacking on, and test each hack seperately until you are confident about it.

I got ya, I have installed alot of hacks but this hack is the problem. I put in my saved copy of register.php edited it with the update and I still recieve the same error. I am thinking of reinstalling the forum and all my hacks when phpportals3.0 comes out and i can try that out first on my existing forum. Just a fix for this would still be nice.

thanks though.
