What did you do to take care of that problem? I have the same issue; haven't been able to fix it...

Zach,

Man, my index.php is original, although I have quite a few hacks installed... when I upload index.php with the changes, I just get a blank page, even if I turn the hack off in the ACP settings. The only way to get the home page loading again is disabling the hack.

There's probably an interference with some other hack... where should I start looking?

Thx

right off the bat
- if you are sure the install is ok
- update your gallery to the current one @ photopost.

When was the last time you did an update ?

[Dennis B]

Zach,

Yes, the install looks good. I updated the gallery the day after VBAG was "move" to PP. Were there any changes since then?

Thx

Hello,

I am still running the vbadvanced gallery by Brian. I installed this yesterday on my 3.5.2 board and everything went fine. I run vbcmps as well so my forum index page was renamed. For the record, my site is HEAVILY modified. None of the modifications I have installed are causing a problem with this. (At least not yet. )

[Zachariah]

No no changes to the downloaded package yet.

- I am working with a heavy edited ver w/ many added bug fixes from the forums @ PP that was found and moved from advadvanced.

- I'll do a flat new install and see what I can come up with. This could take a little time. Don't have a lot of time @ moment.
