can i say that theres is know way im goin to hunt through 84 pages

and i DID read the first page.

Also no one said that you had to answer them all personally NTLDR

so plz dont be so rude, a lot of folk can barely install hacks

I have folk ask me to install phpbb ones all the time

But anyway this is getting away from the point at hand.

Everyone chill

Then I DON'T want your questions in this thread, its quite simple, the terms for support are clear on the first post.

The above post wasn't directed at any user in particular.

wow, people get so pissed for no reason..I guess you are having a bad day or something but get over whatever it is...and on that note...I could care less about someone +++++ing about not reading 84 posts...screw a bunch of that.

anyway, the instructions should be more detailed and explain how to set the news to get it to actually show the post and not just a blank space...yes I installed it 2 times now the exact way it should be...but oh well...
so back to the point at hand, the hack is really awesome but my problem still persists...no news content on main page...just shows the post title and all that but no preview of content...

if anyone knows, let me know.
thanks

The instructions say to goto the "Update Counters" link, and select the "postids" one...

YAY!!!!

Chris M · #**1257** 12-19-2002, 12:06 AM

This is my first post in this thread. Been running vBindex now for months. I installed it myself using this thread as a reference. Yes, I've had all the problems/questions, Blank Pages, How to edit templates, where to put new templates and how to name and recall them, etc. And not once have I ever had to post a question... All I did was search this thread and was smart enough to keep checking the first post and I found all my answers. This thread wouldn't be 84 pages if everyone would just read/search the thread to make sure that your problem/question is NOT a duplicate.

NTLDR has done a great job... if you don't like it, don't use it, it wasn't meant for you then.

So, my first post is not a problem or a question but rather a big Thank You to NTLDR.

Now for my plug

What a pitty. Like I said I don't want you to post in thread thread, go find support else where, if you can't be bothered to follow my terms for support then your not welcome to use this hack nor welcome to get support on it.
