Advanced Warning System (Beta Version)

Advanced Warning System


IF YOU ARE RUNNING vB 3.6, THERE IS A NEW THREAD FOR THIS HACK UNDER THAT VERSION. vB 3.6 USERS GO HERE:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=124477


This is a direct port of the Advanced Warning System, as it was implemented in vB 3.0.x. This port has all the features of AWS version 3.4.16, except the Notes.

For a complete description of AWS capabilities, please refer to the following thread:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?p=574374

The vB 3.5 compliant version of AWS includes:

1 Product XML (17 Plugins, 107 Phrases, 26 Templates, 43 Settings)
1 ACP Navigation XML
1 PHP Functions File
3 Images
2 PHP Frontend Files
1 PHP Admin CP File
1 PHP Mod CP File
3 PHP Cronjob Files

This port would not be possible, without the help of KirbyDE, to whom I am greatful. KirbyDE will also be responsible for supporting you here, with questions related to this particular release. Also, this port would not have been possible, without the help of Juan P hernandez, who offered me a free test system, in which the porting was performed.

The hack has been tested and it is believed to be bug-free, however since this is a major hack, I release it today (September 9th 2005) as beta.

I hope you all enjoy it.

If you found a Bug, please report it at http://bugs.kirbydemos.ath.cx

This helps to keep issues organized, which can't be guaranteed if it's only posted in the Thread.
Thank you.

P.S.1: After you install the hack per the instructions, please update your installation with the separate files listed. They are newer files not included in the zip.

P.S.2: If you want to use the Notes feature, as it existed in AWS 3.4.16, please install AWS per the instructions in the zip file, and THEN follow the instructions included in the warn_notes_update_instructions.txt.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Please keep in mind that this hack is not supported. What this means is that I have no obligation to support it. The reason for that, is because I have no access to a vB 3.5 system any more, so I can't work on this hack any more. Andreas (or KirbyDE) who undertook the support of this version of the AWS hack in the beginning, is obviously too busy to support it. So you are on your own, at least as far as the interaction with vB is concerned. If you have an issue with the hack files themselves, I'll do my best to solve it, but without a test environment, it is not easy. So users of vB 3.5 beware!

P.S. May 31st 2006: The zip file uploaded today, should contain all the debugging done by Delphi, so it should be fine as it is. You do not need the other files listed at the right, only the zip. Download it and follow the instructions in it, for installing the hack. I leave the other files there, just in case some one needs them, they will be deleted later.

Might be a good idea to change that

Thanks a bunch, Kirby.

I ran into another area with 'caused_ban', but was able to figure out how to add that from the product.

Tested the system after, and the test warning went through.

I don't know what version of AWS for 3.0.0 I was running, but clearly I was missing some columns.

Now I'm wondering if I'm missing others and just don't know it yet. Will have to watch it as the mods start using it.

When does this appear?

[EdQ]

I get an error when I send a PM

/forums/includes/class_dm_pm.php(523) : eval()'s code on line 96

Also users could not view their PM's

"this page can not be displayed."

This fixed worked for me

Doh, I did a search and that post didn't come up.

Well I cannot uninstall it completely. I wanted to start over.

The AWS is still in the AdminCP.

I get this error when trying to reinstall.

plugin.php (1192) : eval ()'d code on line 12

[thecool]

okay, i got this work before (when i using 1.0) i disabled it because it messed with my user options as well as my pms.

reinstalled it today (uploaded all the appropriate files, etc), but it doesn't show up anywhere on the actual board itself. I see it in the admin control panel, but i don't have the same warn this user options i had before on the actual board itself.


QUESTION? where there any changes made in the readme for the templates?

thanks

i'd done them from before in 1.0 did they change. (God it was a tedious update), i changed a few and scanned through the rest of them to make sure they changed.

in a nutshell. i'd changed them in 1.0
scanned for the changes in my templates in 1.03, they all looked the same.

where they different?
