But wondered if i could have the default as 3 in place of 2?

Cheers for any help or advice

Look in vbookie.php, around line number 1360 for this code:

PHP Code:

    if ($vbulletin->GPC['vbookieeventoptions'] < 2)
    {
        $vbulletin->GPC['vbookieeventoptions'] = 2;
    } 


Change the 2 to 3 in both lines and you'll have it default to 3 outcomes instead of two.

For some reason all the mods on the forum seem to be able to settle bets despite "Can Post vBookie Events" = no. I have a seperate group for vbookies

What have I missed?!

ok I commented this out in product_vbookie.xml

// moderators can edit events
	//if (can_moderate($threadinfo['forumid']))
	//{
        //	$isbookmaker = true;
	//}

seems to be working

[wilburshere]

i would like to disable the private bet feature any ideas on how this can be done ?

I rebuilt the bitfields.
I did the template edit.

The only ones that can post an event are admins even though other usergroups are enabled. The event checkbox doesn't show up in the new thread for others.

Any suggestions?

Anyone?

to the right is a edit button...click it

in the middle of the edit page you will see: "Plugin PHP Code Use this field to enter the PHP code that you would like to be run."

replace what is in there with the following:

PHP Code:

if ($newpost['postvbookieevent']) 
{ 
    $vbulletin->url = 'vbookie.php?' . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . "t=$newpost[threadid]&vbookieeventoptions=$newpost[vbookieeventoptions]&do=newevent"; 
    eval(print_standard_redirect('redirect_postthanks_moderate', true, false));
} 


save and you are done


hope this helps.

I've looked to find the answer but can't seem to come up with it.

I am running vB 3.5.4 with vBookie installed. Will this work with 3.6.x when I upgrade?

[Fr4gZ]

Hi there I installed vbookie a week or so ago and everything was running smooth after I added the vb 3.6 patch. I'm currently using vb 3.6.4.

After a few days when anyone went to click the vbookie link it came up with a databse error. I wasn't sure if rebuilding the bit fields again wud work but I tried that too but that didnt help. Here's the error message:

http://www.fr4gz.co.uk/forum/vbookie.php?

I re-installed vbookie from scratch and it worked fine again until today. Please help.

P.S love the mod so I hope someone has some advice.

[CrossBones]

I just noticed this. Apparently this is how to fix it!

To fix this problem, the following plugin must be edited ;


vBookie: Redirect to vbookie.php when posting new Event

Replace the plugin code with this ;

PHP Code:

if ($newpost['postvbookieevent']) 
{ 
    $vbulletin->url = 'vbookie.php?' . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . "t=$newpost[threadid]&vbookieeventoptions=$newpost[vbookieeventoptions]&do=newevent"; 
    eval(print_standard_redirect('redirect_postthanks_moderate', true, false));
} 


Note: I'm not actually using vbookie atm so I can't comment on any other problems.

Where exactly do I replace the code? Any help is appreciated Thank You
