I'm using 3.7.3 and just did a new install of this hack.

Would you like a screenshot to see what it's doing or are you already familiar with what I'm describing?

[s]Screenshot would be helpful please. I've tested it on my forum and it works fine with me (In IE7 and Firefox). Whats the user's name? Has it worked at all?[/s] Did you upload tmnt_getuser.php -> \ ? <- If you haven't uploaded this file then you get the error you described.

When I try and add a member, I have two boxes, one for ID one for username. When I enter a name and click fetch, I get this,

I learned that the only way to bypass and add a member is if I enter both their username and go hunting down their userID.

How do I resolve this issue?

[s]As i said above I dont get this problem. Whats the user's name? Has it worked at all? [/s]Did you upload tmnt_getuser.php -> \ ? <- If you haven't uploaded this file then you get the error you described.

1) Tournament creator doesn't see an actual bracket. He/She just sees it in a list form. They are in the correct order so you can still figure out the bracket by going down the line and pairing them up, but this is extremely annoying if it is a large tournament.

The layout for tournament moderators has been fixed in latest version. (Screenshot)

Yes that file was uploaded to my forum root directory. I reuploaded it again just to make sure it wasnt corrupted. Still having the same issue.

Try replacing attached file with your current tournament.php

[WNxWakko]

Uploaded file. still not working.

[harlita]

For the sake of page loading and space I'll just link the screenshots rather than img tagging them.

BananaLive - here you'll see the correct files are uploaded to the correct locations:
tmnt_getuser.php
tmnt_selectuser.php
clientscript.js


And here you'll see what happens when I try to enter the Username:
Adding Username - as you can see, it resolves the name having successfully found the member in the username field itself..
Note: I've tried it both ways, by ignoring the offered username in the dropdown, and by selecting the username in the drop down.

But once I click "Fetch UserID" you'll see it automatically populates the UserID field with the HTML output that Wakko and I are both seeing.

This happens in both IE 7 and FF 3 on two different computers (etc etc etc).

Any ideas on what is going wrong?

I'm running 3.7.3 Patch Level 1 VBulletin and the problem seems to be only with the UserID Fetch, as it works perfectly fine if I manually input both the UserID and the Username.


Edit - just saw your post with the file attachment, I will try that really quick as well. Thanks so much for supporting your mod, by the way. It's one of the things that makes this community freaking awesome!

[WNxWakko]

I found something interesting.

I decided to put tmnt_getuser.php into my webroot which is one directory up from my forum root directory and I got a different error in your id box shown below.

<br /><b>Warning</b>: require_once(global.php) [<a href='function.require-once'>function.require-once</a>]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in <b>/warriornation.net/httpdocs/tmnt_getuser.php</b> on line <b>2</b><br /><br /><b>Fatal error</b>: require_once() [<a href='function.require'>function.require</a>]: Failed opening required 'global.php' (include_path='.:.:') in <b>/warriornation.net/httpdocs/tmnt_getuser.php</b> on line <b>2</b><br />

This leads me to believe that your script is looking at my webroot instead of forum root. If I take the file back out of my webroot, the error returns to the original message I pasted in an above thread.

Thx! And thanks for adding live demo, this is just what I'm looking for. I'll install this as soon as I get this one last thing right...


Do you mean I'll have to create a new template with that code, or just add all that to my style settings -> custom css ?

And could someone with a bit of skills add this code to the *.xml file? If it's not too much of work... I have many styles and it would take some time to add this to every style. The *.xml would put it to every style automatically...
