Version 1.0.1 released! [March 25th, 18:30]
New: ~ Backup files: Now the script will backup files before editing them. You can disable this, and also change the extension of the backup file. (note: the folder in which the files reside must be writable) ~ CHMOD: The script will try to CHMOD files instead of just dying. The parent folder must be writable if you want the script to CHMOD files in it. ~ Another small fix there's not much to say about. Ok here's something I wrote yesterday, and today after testing it on serveral forums I can finally release it.  What is it? vbHacker is a script that automatically installs hacks for you. It takes a xxxxx.hack.php file and comes up with the install script for it. This means you only need vbhacker.php to sit in your admin folder, and just upload data files every time you want to install a new hack. How does one create hack files? To make these xxxxx.hack.php data files, please read the post about vbHackMaker: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...&postid=231705 The script does the following: ~ Hack files (only PHP have access to write that file) ~ Install new templates ~ Update existing templates ~ Run queries If anything fails, the script skips it. Then you are taken to a page that lists all the changes the script couldn't do, with instructions how to do them yourself. You also have the option to generate a plain text file with complete hacking instructions, in case you prefer that. The installer also checks for your vBulletin version, warning you if the versions mismatch. I took some screen shots earlier of the various steps. Hack chooser - This is the part where you see a list of all hacks you have and you can choose which one, and whether to install it or create a text file: http://www.vbulletin.org/vbhacker/1_chooser.gif For the next screen shots I chose the Quick Reply Box hack. Elements to install - There you can choose what parts of the hack you want to install. There are four main parts: File hacks, new templates, template edits and queries. This is good for upgrades if you only want to update the templates, and nothing else. http://www.vbulletin.org/vbhacker/2_quick_elements.gif Specific changes - A more specific step that allows you to select exactly what changes to what files/templates you want to make. Once again, this is helpful when upgrading. http://www.vbulletin.org/vbhacker/3_quick_config.gif Auto installer - The core of the script that actually installs the hack. This is how it looks like when it works fine: http://www.vbulletin.org/vbhacker/4_quick_auto_ok.gif And this is how it looks like when something went wrong (because I made it go wrong  ):http://www.vbulletin.org/vbhacker/5_quick_auto_bad.gif Manual mode - An optional step that you will only use if the auto installer had some problems. It just lists the changes you need to do yourself: http://www.vbulletin.org/vbhacker/6_quick_manual.gif Text file - If you want to generate a text file with the full instructions to install the hack: http://www.vbulletin.org/vbhacker/7_quick_text.gif The style for my Admin CP was done by kier. Well, hope you like what you see.  I will start releasing my hacks with this installer soon, so you can see it in action. A script that creates these data files will probably come soon, so everyone will be able to use this for their own hacks.Attached is the script, version 1.0.1. Just upload it to your /admin folder, and you're done. Whenever you need to install a new hack just go to /admin/vbhacker.php in your browser. Show Your Support

If a new file needs to be created, just attach it to your hack and the user can upload it.
Putting it in the hack file will only make it bigger, and I don't see the point in it anyway.

again these two files have helped me out real good,
thanks for that hard work and effort you put into making us nebie hackers life more easier, I have installed 4 hacks , after creating the xxx.hack.php file, it was a matter of seconds before each hack was installed, now I have to figure out how to get some hacks for 2.2.2 to work with 2.2.4,

Very nice hack, you have proven who is the master.
If the great master will allow one opinion it would to create backup before executing the hack in case of disaster, and this will allow you to add a feature wich will allow revert to the previous state.
