Members Choice voting hack - V2 with usergroup permissions

I have eventually got around to porting and releasing this hack on vborg for vb 3.0.5

1 file edit
3 template edit
3 new db table

This hack uses and includes a copy of the [HIS] Hack Installer System (Build 3)
released by Link14716 and can be found here --> https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=71542


This is similar to the earlier version however i have mane some changes including the ability to run more that one polling booth at a time

The member who nominates another can give reason for nominating the person.
and then the nominee can add an acceptance speech.
Avatars are also displayed for both nominee and nominator.

A Tutorial for manual install can be found here https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=76050

UPDATE V1.1

missing phrases added
changed wrong phrase call in template
fixed db quirie to add the table prefix


UPDATE V1.2

Changed phrasegroup id due to conflict with another hack

Update V2
1. Booth auto close.
2. Add option for nominate to be able to vote for the person they nominated
3. Add option to deny admin from nomination.
4. Added usergroup permissions for
-- Who can vote
-- Who can nominate
-- who can remove nominees
-- who can see votes.
5) fixed some phrases
If you are upgrading please be sure to remove the "1" folder before starting the install of v2

Hmm with the number of hacks around nowadays, this with the phraseid's just must give problems. Only quick solution i see for this is when all people who want to release a hack here, first in 1 thread "registrate" the id's they are gonna use.

I have decided to change the phrasegroup id for this hack ..... i have to go to work now so i cant do it until i get home ....

[trafix]

Ok I have changed the phrase id that the members choice hack uses so there should not be any further conflict with the geekarticles hack ......

For existing users in the next update i will provide you with a small script that you well need to run before you do your update .... this will change the phrasidno to the new one .... however if you want to install the geekarticles hack in the mean time please let me know and i will do the script for you

got any update mcyates? .... did you manage to sort out the mess?

My appologies for your situation .... however it was bound to happen sooner or later when coders pluck numbers out of the sky for phraseid no's .

Thanks

Otherwise, seems to be working fine. Happy to test things for you.

I'm getting the same problem, I did edit/save a phrase as sometimes that clears up phrases not showing up... but, not in this case.

I love this mod by the way.

hmm, i think i know where your comming from .... go to the phrase manager and select global control panel ... find one of the phrases for the members choice and select edit .... your dont need to edit any details but just click on save ... then check the admin for the other phrases, there could be some issue where the phrases arnt seen by the site and just by editing a phrase forces the vb software to re do them all

just a thought

when installing it comes up with this error:

Warning: main(../upgrade_queries.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /index.php on line 49

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required '../upgrade_queries.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /usr/home/yates238/public_html/install/hacks/Members Choice/1/index.php on line 49

@mcyates
This means it has already been installed before.
