the vbay module?

But seriously, even though i think it has nothing to do with vbay, you should have made backups of your forum on a regular basis. You have to expect something to go wrong when installing 3rd party software.

So, why can't admins edit everything? Thats my only problem.

Another awesome feature would be turning off the shipping address etc as this will be for a freelance forum. It would be AWESOME if you could give my some info on when this will be released

If you are replying to me... You shoukld learn how to quote a message, it is easy and it prevents confusion!

I have backups! If you would have read my first complaint I clearly said that the vbay database error was related to a database that was not being used... It was on a database created for pp-classified program that I uninstalled long ago. How did that happen, beats me... it's your program and I am done with it!

If you think it is nothing, fine. This is a public forum and I am warning others. This program has potential, but too many serious issues you don't seem to think that is important... I'll seek another program... Have a good day!

I kind of figured i wouldnt need to quote you since your post is the one right above mine.

I find your reply funny, coming from a person who has probably not even looked at the code to the product.

I especially like the fact how it is 100% my product, and im the insolent one for thinking it isn't.

This product uses the vbulletin database class, meaning it will only edit the database specified in your vbulletin config file.

If something got screwed up, its your fault, not mine or this products.

Hello Blaine.
First off thanks for all your hard work!
I do have one issue. My images are not showing.
What information can I provide to help resolve this issue. and/or
What would I need to check?

Thanks

[Blaine0002]

I guess the first thing to check is, do you have GD installed on your server?

[Harley D]

GD? Sorry... Not sure what that is, Or how to check for it.

Graphic Dohicky?

[Blaine0002]

yes, lol,

Make a php file with the following contents

<?php
phpinfo();
?>

and run that file

Search for GD, see if your server has it activated.

Blaine...GREAT product! I can't wait for the next version. My site is ROCKIN' with vBay!

One suggestion...When you set a starting price the first bid always equals the starting price plus the first bid increment. EX: Starting price $20. Bid Increment: $10. The real fist bid is now $30 when it should be $20.

Keep up the excellent work!!!
