Hi, this is my first vB hack so please be patient

This allows you to use a board as a link (UB2k users know this feature). When you set a board as a link every user who joins the board will be redirected to this url

See it in action: http://foren.letzplay.de (german) the last boards are redirections.

This hack has been tested on vB 2.0.1 and vB 2.0.3 but other users have it running on 2.2.1, too.

Please post questions, inspirations and problems in this thread (not per email or pm). Thank you.

New version 1.1a fixed online

Just fixed that one bug in the install description. No need to upgrade if version 1.1a is already running

New version 1.1a online

I didn't get it to work with 2.2.1. I did the file changes as mentioned and also the tables exist. I also can create the forums. However, I put them in a category. The category is displayed. But the forums under the category, which have external links not. I checked the permissions and they are ok. I have no idea what I have done wrong. It used to work in 2.2.0...

Are you sure you created the templates?

orca · #24 11-18-2001, 11:55 AM

oops, that could be it. I guess those were created by the script? I will have a look at it again. It sure could be that. Didn't remember that, though. Thanks for the reply

orca · #25 11-18-2001, 12:00 PM

That was it. Thank you

It was my first hack, I don't think there was anything created automatically

Works!

But ... i'm afraid the bug Thomas talked about is still there.

So i did like Thomas told and changed the little thingi with the linktarget-variable ... and now it works fantasticly. Thank you ... i needed that!

(I didn't need to create templates ... and I used extlink11a.zip, especially info.deutsch.txt)

I had to make the same correction as posted on page 1:

,'".addslashes($link)."','$linktarget'

I uploaded the three files and I got a parser error. I reuploaded the originals for now, so my boards are still working, but I have the hacked versions too.

What's wrong? I did everything right.

v1.1 of the hack
v 2.21 of vBulletin

To allow members only to be able to click on external link. This way, you could have other non vb sections on site restricted to members only.

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