Advanced Warning System (Beta Version) · **Released**: 09-08-2005

Advanced Warning System

IF YOU ARE RUNNING vB 3.6, THERE IS A NEW THREAD FOR THIS HACK UNDER THAT VERSION. vB 3.6 USERS GO HERE:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=124477

This is a direct port of the Advanced Warning System, as it was implemented in vB 3.0.x. This port has all the features of AWS version 3.4.16, except the Notes.

For a complete description of AWS capabilities, please refer to the following thread:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?p=574374

The vB 3.5 compliant version of AWS includes:

1 Product XML (17 Plugins, 107 Phrases, 26 Templates, 43 Settings)
1 ACP Navigation XML
1 PHP Functions File
3 Images
2 PHP Frontend Files
1 PHP Admin CP File
1 PHP Mod CP File
3 PHP Cronjob Files

This port would not be possible, without the help of KirbyDE, to whom I am greatful. KirbyDE will also be responsible for supporting you here, with questions related to this particular release. Also, this port would not have been possible, without the help of Juan P hernandez, who offered me a free test system, in which the porting was performed.

The hack has been tested and it is believed to be bug-free, however since this is a major hack, I release it today (September 9th 2005) as beta.

I hope you all enjoy it.

History (Productversion)
3.5.b
Initial Version

3.5.b1
Fixed a typo that caused Errors in User Datamanager.
Fixed a wrong object reference in functions_warning.php

3.5.b2
Fixed a Bug that caused PHP Error Messages.
Fixed a Typo in the Install Code that causes mySQL Errors.
Updated the Template Edit instructions to be (hopefully) compatible with RC3

3.5.b3
Fixed User not showing up in automatic warning PMs
Fixed 2 missing Phrases
Fixed Hidden Warner being Used for Automatic Warnings
Fixed "View x's Warnings" Button in Usermanager not working

3.5.b4
Removed one unsued Phrase, added one missing Phrase
Fixed a Typo that caused PHP Errors when sending PMs
Fixed a Typo that caused PHP Errors upon Installation
Changed Product ID for Admin CP Navigation XML from vbulletin to aws, so it won't show up any longer if AWS is uninstalled/disabled.

A bug was found which didn't allow you to delete an entered Warning Type. Bug fixed in the current distribution file.

If you found a Bug, please report it at http://bugs.kirbydemos.ath.cx

This helps to keep issues organized, which can't be guaranteed if it's only posted in the Thread.
Thank you.

P.S.1: After you install the hack per the instructions, please update your installation with the separate files listed. They are newer files not included in the zip.

P.S.2: If you want to use the Notes feature, as it existed in AWS 3.4.16, please install AWS per the instructions in the zip file, and THEN follow the instructions included in the warn_notes_update_instructions.txt.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Please keep in mind that this hack is not supported. What this means is that I have no obligation to support it. The reason for that, is because I have no access to a vB 3.5 system any more, so I can't work on this hack any more. Andreas (or KirbyDE) who undertook the support of this version of the AWS hack in the beginning, is obviously too busy to support it. So you are on your own, at least as far as the interaction with vB is concerned. If you have an issue with the hack files themselves, I'll do my best to solve it, but without a test environment, it is not easy. So users of vB 3.5 beware!

P.S. May 31st 2006: The zip file uploaded today, should contain all the debugging done by Delphi, so it should be fine as it is. You do not need the other files listed at the right, only the zip. Download it and follow the instructions in it, for installing the hack. I leave the other files there, just in case some one needs them, they will be deleted later.

i would like to know how to fixed it?

TruthElixirX · #**253** 10-02-2005, 01:36 AM

k. I'll post the instructions. I garuntee nothing as I haven't had a chance to test this out, I mean I havent' seen any errors yet but any chance to throughly test it has not been made. Also you do this with no support.

Open up warnings.php and find (Line 23 for me.):

Code:

function SendPM($message,$title,$to,$from)

and change it to

Code:

function SendPM2($message,$title,$to,$from)

then find(line 86 for me):

Code:

function RunError($message)

and change it to:

Code:

function RunError2($message)

I have noticed no errors btu have not extensively looked. I'll look through the whole thing tomorrow and make sure but as of now I can warn a user and everything works. so yeah...Quizes should work after that.

Or..., just make the call to the Warning functions file conditional..

Change your global_start plugin to

PHP Code:


			
if (THIS_SCRIPT != "quiz") {

require_once(DIR . '/includes/functions_warning.php');

DEVDEBUG('AutomaticWarner' . $vbulletin->options['warn_automatic_warner']);}

*shakes head at ideas of code editing*

DS MrSinister · #**255** 10-02-2005, 03:11 AM

thank you sir kall

hydrostatic · #**256** 10-02-2005, 04:56 AM

Kall, that won't work because when you try to warn other people, there's an error.

Really?

All that code should do is make it so the code runs on all pages BUT quiz.

hydrostatic · #**258** 10-02-2005, 05:17 AM

I think it's just me, so ignore me

I have RPG Inferno installed and apparently, this hack "double conflicts" with the most popular hack on my board.

I'm pretty sure this would work if you didn't use RPG Inferno.

That would never happen if every author would prefix his functions, var's and tables/columns, with a hack specific prefix. (Like i always do

)

Andreas · #**260** 10-02-2005, 07:13 AM

I never do that cause prefixes are hard to remember

Anyway, even with prefixes it could happen - just the chance would be much lower.

Marco van Herwaarden · #**261** 10-02-2005, 07:16 AM

Well since 3.5 i always use my Product-Id as prefix. Chance of duplicates are almost 0 then, and if the other hack was a product using the same choice of prefix, you wouldn't even be able to load them both.
