Forum Home Enhancements - [AJAX] SmnLikQuick v2.0 - Advanced Announcements Block

Description:
SmnLikQuick v2.0 adds an advanced announcement block (Title and Content) to your vBulletin powered pages that is easily managed via AdminCP. This new version (based on the AJAX Tabs Content Script (v 2.0) written by Dynamic Drive), utilizes Ajax to display multiple announcements in one container when the title (tab) is clicked on. It also has the ability (and utilizes this ability upon install) to rotate between tabs (announcements) in a "slideshow" type manner until a user explicitly clicks on a tab (see screenshots provided).

See Post #02 for log.
See Post #98 for Upgrade Instructions.
See Post #99 for Multiple Styles Fix

Wicked and just what i am looking for.

One problem i have is in IE if a member clicks one of the tabs it opens a page with just a white background and the announcement, works fine in other browsers.

Also in opera the tabs stay the same whichever annoncement is showing.

Hi,
in my admincp now i have this error:

Warning: mysql_query() [function.mysql-query]: Access denied for user 'user'@'localhost' (using password: NO) in [path]/admincp/smnlikquick.php on line 50

Warning: mysql_query() [function.mysql-query]: A link to the server could not be established in [path]/admincp/smnlikquick.php on line 50

Warning: mysql_result(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in [path]/admincp/smnlikquick.php on line 51

I'm using 3.81 version, why this error?

[Sworm]

I think that it is a MYsql5 bug.

	$announcements = mysql_query("SELECT count(*) FROM `" . TABLE_PREFIX . "smnlikquick`");
	$announcement = (mysql_result($announcements, 0, 0));

I have installed it on mysql 4 and work without problems.

Not there's solutions? My forum work like a charm on a litespeed board, and i never see any DB errors with noone of mod that i have installed.

[Sworm]

Nothing,
i have created a new user in mysql that have all privileges , but the warning is still in the admincp.

It is a no good hack.

Uninstalled

I've seen this run on PHP 5 just fine... (With 1 minor bug we fixed). The error is saying that the user is being denied access...

[Sworm]

I have created a new user from my cpanel with ALL privileges, my forum running without problem on a litespeed board,
i'm using 10-14 others hack without problems , i don't think that i have a denied access in my db.

Strange thing is that I created 3 announcements and they show up, and run like they should, but it is only when I need to manage the announcements is where there error shows up.

There is a smnlikquick table listed in the database, and the three messages are there as well, so there is some point were the program can access the database, and it seems that the manage portion is the one having the issues. Is there anything that I can do?

Thanks in advance

P.S. The only way that I could get this program to run, is put in an annoucement and all is fine with the display, and the message on the CMPS screen. I have two messages there and it works that way, but if I need to delete an old message, I have to go to mysql home page and remove it from the table..... Strange one!

I have the same problem, i think that's it a bug of the mod, that not support mysqli....
if the database can't be connected, all the forum/other mod will be out, but the only mod that not work is this.
I have uninstall it because i can't lose time to add the announcements manually.

Thanks
