I upgraded from version 1 but I have some issues... (screen shot attached)

1) the mod did not update the page..so it still shows no language clickboxes to choose the languages (yes I did allow overwrite of product)

2) and the bismillah part shows BELOW the surah instead of at the top, plus its not getting translated but showing some ??? symbols there (but only for Bismillah, the rest seems fine but very very small writing)

3) also the Arabic has become very small (the arabic writing)...(yes I did change the language to UTF)

have no clue whats going on..I installed it 2 times with same results.

Any idea how to do?

It seems you manually edit the quran templates; you need to revert them to make the new templates' changes take effect.

bro, do you mean when you run the file you don't get this message?

If you are seeing this message then it means that the content was successfully inserted in the database!

Please elaborate on what you mean, thanks.

eid mubarak

hey bro any chance of developing a "random verse" module for vbadvanced ? If not would it be possible to get the PHP code to generate random verses with english translation? That way I could try and see if I can get someone to make the mod over at vbadvanced.com

^Can you run this query for me in your admin control panel and let me know if you get any result:

SELECT ayat_en3 FROM table name WHERE chpNo = 1

Replace the "table name" with your table name; it should be xquran where x = TABLE_PREFIX.
