		setting_add('Comments Per Page', 'The number of comments to display on each page.', 'commentsperpage', '10', '10', '', '20');
		setting_add('Comment Character Limit', 'The maximum character length of a user\'s comment.', 'commentlimit', '500', '500', '', '30');
		setting_add('Articles Per Page', 'The number of articles to display on each page.', 'articlesperpage', '10', '10', '', '40');
		setting_add('Article Attachment Limit', 'The maximum number of files which can be attached to an article.', 'maxarticleattachments', '10', '10', '', '50');		
		setting_add('Thumbnails Per Row', 'The number of "thumbnails", or media items to display per row.', 'artthumbsperrow', '4', '4', '', '60');
		setting_add('Featured Article Preview Length', 'The number of characters to display before the preview text is truncated.', 'featuredlength', '550', '550', '', '70');

but when i run it it says..

#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'setting_add('v3 Articles Introduction', 'This introduction text

I am trying to run it so it goes into the Setting table.. any help would be apperciated.

setting_add(); is a function, its not raw sql, you need to just run the script it came with.

[Osterling]

the script it came with doesn't seem to have ran it.. so i wanted to just run the query myself..

[Osterling]

Can anyone tell me how to ether run a queery to set this up, or how to add it through vbulletin if that makes sense

What you posted is not SQL, it is a collection of functions that will build SQL and excute it. Without knowing what these functions are doing no one will be able to help you.

Where did you get this code from (the vB articles hack?).

Yes.. but for some reason this did not install it fully.. since those are the things that would show up on the vboption > v3 article page, but it doesn't. So what I need to do is figure out a way to set it up... So I am so confused, and no one seems to be able to help me on figuring out why that didn't install it for me..

help please

Here is the full install part

// Add v3 Article settings
	if ($_REQUEST['caction'] == 2)
	{
		
		$DB_site->query("INSERT INTO " . TABLE_PREFIX . "settinggroup (grouptitle, displayorder, volatile) VALUES ('v3_articles', '2000', '0')");
		$DB_site->query("INSERT INTO " . TABLE_PREFIX . "phrase (phraseid, languageid, varname, text, phrasetypeid) VALUES (NULL, '0',  'settinggroup_v3_articles', 'v3 Articles', '5000')");
		
		setting_add('v3 Articles Introduction', 'This introduction text will appear at the top of the main v3 Articles page. Use it to describe the purpose of the Articles section.', 'articleintroduction', '', '', 'textarea', '1');
		setting_add('Comments Per Page', 'The number of comments to display on each page.', 'commentsperpage', '10', '10', '', '20');
		setting_add('Comment Character Limit', 'The maximum character length of a user\'s comment.', 'commentlimit', '500', '500', '', '30');
		setting_add('Articles Per Page', 'The number of articles to display on each page.', 'articlesperpage', '10', '10', '', '40');
		setting_add('Article Attachment Limit', 'The maximum number of files which can be attached to an article.', 'maxarticleattachments', '10', '10', '', '50');		
		setting_add('Thumbnails Per Row', 'The number of "thumbnails", or media items to display per row.', 'artthumbsperrow', '4', '4', '', '60');
		setting_add('Featured Article Preview Length', 'The number of characters to display before the preview text is truncated.', 'featuredlength', '550', '550', '', '70');

Can anyone either put this into a query so I can run it, or tell me how to add these settings through admincp.. please
