Forum Home Enhancements - SponsorIt

Due to the pricing and yearly fee of vBulletin I am no longer creating mods for vBulletin, instead I have stepped out of the shadow of vBulletin to create my own stand alone mods. I wish to thank everyone who downloaded and installed my mods but as of now with not being able to afford hosting and vBulletin, I decided to drop vBulletin so hopes of me returning would only happen if my newest venture brings me a nice profit.

Thank you all again
Steve

It was v1.3 that I installed and the errors I was getting seem to be the same as everyone else was reporting, so I think there's something else wrong.

As far as the News Forum negative effects, it's a simple mod based upon the Joomla java code and this mod:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=139529

The News Reader mod is ONLY reading from one forum which doesn't have anything to do with the TFW implementation.

Whatever the TFW mod is doing, it's definitely interacting badly with the News Reader mod, creating an error message:

Warning: Attempt to assign property of non-object in /modules/mod_fpslideshow.php on line 281

That line is attempting to read attachments in posts and it works fine unless TFW is turned ON, then the error starts. To be honest, I really don't want to spend a lot of time figuring it out, as it's not a religious experience.

The News Reader mod is excellent for our forums and works fine now, so it's easier for me to find some kind of a sponsor mod (or commercial add-on) that does what TFW does.

Thanks for the feedback... appreciate it... :up:

Everyone please be patient, I do need to sleep, I do have to work.

Yes I run this mod on my test site, I don't understand where the problem could be coming from when I have been running it fine. I will double check that I included the right xml file.

With regards to your news reader mod, I will attempt to modify my code to work with that mod. I will have to get ahold of it and install it so that I can properly test it.

If you click install then you will know when I have released the fix for this. I am gonna try to get it done before I head to work or as soon as I get off tonight.

Testing new version now.

I got this message when trying to change option in usergroup

MySQL Error : Unknown column 'nbmsgshowchatbox' in 'field list'
Error Number : 1054

Please help.

That is from another mod, check to make sure your chatbox is fully installed.

That means when your installed your chatbox it didn't add that column for the usergroup permission of your chat. I suggest you uninstall it or check where you downloaded that mod to make sure there is not an update.

[Mythotical]

I have released the updated version. If you had errors please download the new version and overwrite your existing product install.

Tonight I will be working on a work around for the news mod issue.

Still have problem with custom style. WOL put it below WOL
Forum put it on top of WOL but it broke the style
Navbar did not display.

[principino1984]

Could you please make one version that doesn't have to DROP the table? Cause with the first version you uploaded and that I installed it didn't create anyt table..so anytime I try to overwrite the old one i get this DB error:

Database error in vBulletin 3.6.7:

Invalid SQL:
ALTER TABLE `vb_tfw_sponsors` DROP `image_type`;;

MySQL Error  : Table 'Sql76565_3.vb_tfw_sponsors' doesn't exist
Error Number : 1146
Date         : Monday, July 23rd 2007 @ 10:04:40 PM

Or, at least let me know what can I do to uninstall the 1.2 version i've on.

I'll appreciate it.

thanks a lot
Marco

edit: nevermind.. .i solved it creating a table called vb_tfw_sponsors by myself and it let me uninstal then....

[Mythotical]

Its the fact that its not creating the table. That was the only problem. Glad you got it fixed though.

Quantnet.org: I will take a look at it tonight.
