PHP Code:

Invalid SQL:
SELECT userid FROM user
    WHERE userid=1 AND (usergroupid= OR FIND_IN_SET('', membergroupids));

MySQL Error  : You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'OR FIND_IN_SET('', membergroupids))' at line 2

Before to install it I want to ask if I can I use it because my forum is located at root so: www.mysite.com not in www.mysite.com/forums..

Yes you can. Just read carefully the readme.txt file as you need to modify 2 lines for HTML editor to work fine in root directory.

This is a great news portal which I've just installed. Good work.

I do have a question however, how do we make it use the vBulletin headers and footers? I think it's using the correct header, but the footer is lacking a lot of customisation that I've made to the template, and I would like to be able to use it.

Thank you

Is this the correct way to put in the paths?


In the vbnews.php:

Where is the testvb and forum entered? Are they entered before or after the public_html?

// Path to your vB installation with slash at the end
$vbpath = '/home/testvb/public_html/forum/';

Not clear on what/where to put in here either.

// Path to $vbnewsname file with slash at the end
$vbnewspath = '/home/testvb/forum/public_html/';

Since this in on a test server what do I enter a testvb after the site URL?

// URL to $vbnewsname file with slash at the end
$vbnewsurl = 'http://www.blahblahXXXXX/testvb/';

I don't think I changed the filename.

// vbNews file name in case that you changed it
$vbnewsname = 'vbnews.php';

Thank you.

If you don't add any code in vbNews->Options for Heade and Footer, the mod will use vB's default Header and Footer. But found in some installations that this dosen't works for footer, so you need to make a modification to templates.

Find:

<if condition="!empty($myfooter)">
  $myfooter
<else />
  $footer
</if>

Replace with:

$footer

Awesome support as usual mary :down: You seem to ignore the questions that require a little more help than 're-upload the files'

And that is the reason I wont be using any more of your hacks paid or otherwise. You are seemingly more interested in changing your own website with the wind than supporting anything you make even when people have paid for that support I myself stopped using vbphotovote because it was impossible to get an answer out of you and promised upgrades never arrived.

I'm so happy for it. Actually I don't like rude people to use my free mods. I'm working for free but for people with understanding, something missing of you. Good luck.
