Toplist

The toplist hack allows people to add their sites to your toplist and send traffic to your site, in return you will send traffic to them.

This toplist script is pretty simple but it does the work, it has a cheat protection where it doesn't allow one ip to vote more then once a day on a certain site. It is completly template driven and will blend in with your vb design.

The installation is simple and the zip file contains install.txt where you will find instructions.

please post bugs/comments/suggestions here.

Bug? Seems that if there are mutiple template sets, the templates are not created ... if anyone cares about this hack anymore....

Suggestion...

Modify it so that "Your Bulletin Board > Top List" links are at the top? That way users can click that instead of keep clicking "Back" to get back to the forum.

In Template toplist_menu

Before this:

<normalfont><a href=toplist.php?s=$session[sessionhash]>Toplist</a> | <a href=toplist.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=add>Add Site</a> | <a href=toplist.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=edit>Edit Site</a></normalfont>

Add this:

<table border="0" width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td width="100%" valign="top">
<img src="{ imagesfolder}/vb_bullet.gif" border="0" align="absmiddle"><normalfont><b><a href="index.php?s=$session[sessionhash]">$bbtitle</a> &gt; Top Sites</normalfont></b>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

Remove the space between { and imagesfolder.

Made all the templates by hand... works fine. Can't actually say that the possible bug I reported is correct, I removed all of the "experimental" templates, leaving only one, then reinstalled, it still didn't make the templates (yes, ran the queries again).

Go figure..

Could someone explain "Run the queries in toplist.sql" a little better, for a not-so-sql-literate person? Thank you

[mewgood]

go to phpmyadmin and run toplist.sql

anyone please?

Check to see if the install program made the templates as it's supposed to. It didn't on my site, I had to make them manually. You can do that by opening the install file, you'll see the templates there.

well i found that there is a problem if you got many diffrent template sets, cuz the install file only adds the toplist templates to the default template set, the rest you have to do by hand or change the mysql query.

can you please list in here, or please pm me about it? I don't get it..
