Add-On Releases - vBulletin-Glossary

What is vBulletin-Glossary:

A professional glossary with features like :

• crosslinking
• attachments in entries using vBullstin attachment system
• searchable by using the vBulletin standard search
• edit-history just like in wikipedia
• synonyms to combine crosslinkings to other words
• optional entryfields for more details of entry
• vb-SEO compatible
• etc.

Installation:

- Upload all files in 'upload' to your server

- set 777-permission for the following directories:

• /vbglossar
• /vbglossar/backup
• /vbglossar/temp

- Import 'product-vbglossar.xml' in AdminCP as Add-On.

Right after the import of the productfile, go and set the usergroups. Afterwards edit the setting in AdminCP (Settings and Crosslinking). Now go to 'manage categories' and create the wanted cats.

Now the glossary should be configured and ready to use.

Updates from previous versions:

Follow the instruction of a new installation, also check the file permissions. After importing the product (overwrite: yes), check the grouprights and the settings of the glossary as there are some new features. In case the entries won't show up, please rebuild the datastore in the tools-section of the glossarin in admincp.

Template Modification:

Edit template 'search.css' and check for the following text

/* as post */

Please include the following code above this:

.threadinfo.glossaryentry a.threadstatus
{
background-image:url({vb:stylevar imgdir_searchresults}/search_results_glossaryentry.png);
background-position: 11px 6px;
}

General:

This addon has been developed by the follwing people (a-z): Andreas, Captainslater, G?rome, Surviver and me. We spent every free minute for this project (coding, translation, tests, etc). Also MrD and Ragtek have tested during the time when this addon got developed.

In directory '/tools' you might find a usefull Script by G?rome. User of vBCMS will find a module for their portal in directory 'vbcms' which shows a random entry of the glossary.

• 1.0.0 PL 1 - Fixed Version by G?rome, users can't write unwnated entries anymore.

• 1.0.3 - fixed more small bugs and added new functions (create threads for discussions, more options for crosslinking, better options for mods/admins, etc).

• 1.1.0 - added more main-features (synonyms can be used now, optional use of entryfields within categories, PDF-functions included, vB-SEO kompatible, TOC-list, etc)

Here's my issue: I'm the owner of the boards, but my own account is unable to add any entries. I constantly get:

Warning: require_once([path]/includes/functions_wysiwyg.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in [path]/vbglossar.php on line 2235

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/home/XXXXXX/public_html/includes/functions_wysiwyg.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/XXXXXX/public_html/vbglossar.php on line 2235

However, noticing one of my other staff members successfully posted, I created a test account. I enabled posting for this account. Afterwards, I did a test post and it worked with no issues. What's wrong with this?

Did that. Still broken. As long as I don't add attachments its fine.

Anyone figure out how to add a cell-padding to the popup? I can change the background color but that's about it.

Has anyone been able to upload any images in any of their entries. I tried to upload a picture 18kb size and it gives a red dot that says undefined when you hover over it.

I also experienced this error when clicking manage attachments:
Fatal error: Access level to vB_Attachment_Store_vBGlossary_GlossaryEntry::fetc h_associated_contentinfo() must be protected (as in class vB_Attachment_Store) or weaker in /home/marin49/public_html/packages/vbglossary/attach/glossaryentry.php on line 368

[alaska_av8r]

never mind I am going to un-install it

[Vossi]

Use Version 2.0.6 in and everything is fine

For example. One word is Lacquer

But if I link from a post its this.
http://www.scalemotorcars.com/forum/...n/tag/lacquer/

Anyone know where I went wrong?

Im actually still having this problem. The URL's are adding the TAG into it rather then use the full URL.

Any ideal how to fix it? Thanks...

Vossi the version 2.0.6 does not work for me. My members cannot PM.
I am using vB ver 4.1.4 and this is the error that it is giving when you attempt to PM

Fatal error: Access level to vB_Attachment_Store_vBGlossary_GlossaryEntry::fetc h_associated_contentinfo() must be protected (as in class vB_Attachment_Store) or weaker in /home/marin49/public_html/packages/vbglossary/attach/glossaryentry.php on line 368

[Vossi]

Use 2.0.5 which is for vB 4.0.x - 4.1.4

Use 2.0.6 which is for vB 4.1.5 and higher
