I have made some modifications to the hack by Stasik, which is located here.
New features:

Edit display order from the list of questions/groups
Got the display code into templates and out of misc.php
Removed some extra queries
Added support for vB Code and fixed support for smilies
Various small cosmetic/coding fixes

The base hack is © 2001 by Stasik.
Portions, including the installer, are © 2001 Kevin Schumacher.
Portions of the installer were created by Bane.
The hack and its' installer may not be redistributed, edited or not, without this copyright notice attached.

For version: 2.0.3

Files needed: faq_install.php, faq.php

Files to edit: admin/index.php, root/misc.php

Templates to edit: None.

Instructions: Upload and run faq_install.php from your admin directory. Follow the on-screen directions.

Upgrading from Stasik's hack: Upload and run faq_install.php from your admin directory and choose the option to upgrade from v2 of the hack.

Upgrading from a previous version of *this* hack (e.g. from this thread): Upload and run faq_install.php from your admin directory and choose the option to upgrade from "v3, v31, or v32" of the hack.

Works like a charm on 2.2.5

FleaBag · #**154** 05-23-2002, 12:15 AM

Oh dear, wonder what I'm doing wrong then. I'll have to take another look later this morning.

geniuscrew · #**155** 05-23-2002, 12:17 AM

Maybe I can help GF - what's the problem?

FleaBag · #**156** 05-23-2002, 12:18 AM

I couldn't find the code I was looking for in misc.php, I didn't spend that long on it, admittedly, as I didn't have much time. Did you run into any problems?

geniuscrew · #**157** 05-23-2002, 12:25 AM

If you open it using Wordpad search for FAQ - now replace the code that is between

// ############################### start faq ###############################

and

// ############################### Popup Smilies for vbCode ################

The only problem i had was with the parsing of HTML - but that's fixed now

FleaBag · #**158** 05-23-2002, 11:17 AM

OK, maybe this is just me but the code in admin/index.php isn't there either, so for anyone else - this is what I did.

Find...

PHP Code:


			
makenavselect("User Titles");

// ***

Below that, add...

PHP Code:


			
makenavoption("Add Group","faq.php?action=addfaq","|");

makenavoption("Edit Group","faq.php?action=modify","<br>");

makenavoption("Add Question","faq.php?&action=addquestion");

makenavselect("FAQ Maintenance");

// ***

...and that should have your CP sorted.

Seems to be running fine on 2.2.5, thanks for the tip geniuscrew and thanks for the hack tubedogg.

how did you fix that?? I don't know how to fix it

geniuscrew · #**160** 05-24-2002, 12:02 AM

Firstly do EXACTLY what it tells you in the instructions - don't run any queries mentioned in this thread or change bbparsecode2 to bbparsecode

simple replace this

Code:

$entries=$DB_site->query("SELECT entryid,title,text FROM faqentries WHERE faqid='$page' ORDER BY showorder");

with

Code:

$entries=$DB_site->query("SELECT * FROM faqentries WHERE faqid='$page' ORDER BY showorder");

(in misc.php)

That's what fixed mine

Hope that helped!

@ GamerForums - you're welcome

Glad i could help

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
