I'm just adding the following info to this thread in case someone else like me comes looking for at and it's unlikely to be an issue for most users of this hack.

IF you have this hack installed AND you are still using VB 3.0.x AND you are running mySQL 4.1.x ... database dumps (backups) will be corrupted because of a character set issue. I have just experienced this myself after changing hosts on the weekend and it's taken me most of the day to track down the problem. Signs of this problem are various "invalid argument for foreach ()" statements on any page that allows weather settings, the set location will no longer be configured, and the radio buttons for setting the display type (F or C) will be missing entirely.

Unfortunately it's an easy fix. You will need to fix up the data field in the userfield table under "display type" and field9 in the profilefield table. If you run into this issue and can't figure out how to repair it just drop me a PM and I'll try to give you a hand if I'm available.

This may have already been asked, but I did not see it in my reading.

Is there a 3.54 version available?

[d8tabyte]

It's ok, I know 5 posts above you would be far too much reading, so I'll help you.

No - it hasn't been ported yet, not until he finishes his bible hack.

A vBBible? Awesome! Any idea when that will be done? I would love to run it on my site.

Hopefully soon. After I get the script completed (have to do this in my spare time), I will port it to vbscript. Then I will need testers. Since I've gotten a bunch of PMs about it, I may post a thread in regards to how its coming along. I will make this into a product. I wanted to have this done last December, but it didn't happen.

[Holidazed]

Well, it has been a couple of months. any progress on the vBBible or the VB Weather?

[davidw]

Almost done with vBBible, working on the weather hack after.

[Holidazed]

Awesome. Does that mean, a week? A month?

[davidw]

hard to tell, because we've just opened up two new markets for cable internet in our state and I've had to devote a lot of time to that (about 1,000-10,000 possible subscribers) - however, I hear we may hire another tech support to alleviate the influx. More information is in the other thread I posted here.

I'm estimating the script will be finished in 1-2 weeks, as long as I can get some time on it.

And - I apologize on the delay.

[patrickstar]

just to clarify, is this weather hack ok to use for 3.5.4??

and how does it work, a seperate popup window with zip code input for users???

thanks.
