Enable Debugmode just for your PC

Ok, so i can release at least one vb3 hack already, some more will follow once vb.org is upgraded and i find more time.

This hack is to enable Debugmode just for your PC, ignoring which account you use, so you can even browse with debug mode while you are logged out.

If you have a static IP, this hack is very small, but if you have dynamic IP's like myself it's a bit more complicated as it works with cookies

The Hack has been tested a long time on vb3G, i think it will work on RC1 as well, tests will follow

enjoy

Wrong! Next answer, please.

Im guessing/hoping he meant not to release the install instructions

Either way, Your the admin Xenon so i thought it is in my best interest not to argue with you

[Boofo]

Without the install instructions, there is no hack.

Quick! Apologize to him before he figures out what's going on.

Hmm, it seems i have some problems with this on RC4

Hmm, i cannot confirm that, it works flawless for me using RC4

make sure there is no char before the opening <?php in the named file

maybe you've installed another hack which starts output before the cookie is sent

[high]* ChuanSE is a hack-mess

i don't really find what is wrong

is there another way to enable debug mode?

[Xenon]

with a static ip, yes

and i think Stadler has released a similar mod here as well

but you may try to reinstall it from the scratch, maybe it was just a little mistake.
If it doesn't work, i may have to investigate further

Forgive me for sounding like a compleet newbie, but can someone shed some light on what the debugger will do/ show and how to add uncached template to the cache?
I couldn't find anything in the documents and on vb.com a search for uncached gave me a post saying to look at vb.org.

After installing the sidebar hack i get 1 uncached post (i use erwin's microstat's hack, which told me about the uncached template). How can solve that?

[Xenon]

the debugger is just there do give you more informations about your board (like the ammount of queries/running time or used templates and of course which of the used templates are uncached)

and to answer the offtopic thing: to precache an uncached template, you have to add it's name to the template cache array which is defined at the very beginning of each vb file

Cool!

Well the 1 line static ip that Chen posted worked fine for me but i rather have a cookie (specially for my dyn ip co-admin).

But i can't seem to turn the debug on. Whenever i click the Toggle Debugmode i get a message saying "Debug cookie set". But it's not there.....
When i click it again i get the same message, but it it was really set the first time i should get the deleted cookie message, so it's not setting the debug mode.

In this code:

PHP Code:

require_once('./global.php');
if ($_COOKIE['bbadmindebugcookie'] == 'enabled')
{
    vbsetcookie('admindebugcookie', '', 0);
    echo 'Debug cookie deleted';
}
else
{
    vbsetcookie('admindebugcookie', 'enabled', 1);
    echo 'Debug cookie set';
}
?> 


Why is it called bbadmindebugcookie first and then admindebugcookie later? (not that changing all to bbadmindebugcookie matters/helps anything)

oh and in vb3 gold this line isn't there:

PHP Code:

if ($index !== false) 


instead it's:

PHP Code:

if ($index == 0 AND $index !== false) 


dunno if that matters any?
