Again replacing 394 with the number of characters to show for non-sticky news.
perfect! thanks

Unfortunately, some of us are not very knowledgable on the process. Can you or someone else please take just a few minutes of your time to list all of the correct queries to run to uninstall this hack. You say you are working on an uninstaller, then you must have these queries available. Please share them! :nervous:

As I've said before and uninstaller will be done after the final of vB3/vBindex 3, I will not be releasing an uninstaller or working out the queries to remove the 8 different versions of vBindex a user could have untill then, I simply don't have the time. None of the vBindex edits effect how vB runs or cause problems for upgrades hence this isn't a priority now.

Make sure you have set all the options correctly in the ACP and saved them if you still get the error post the entire contents of the email in [code] tags here.

There are 2 things I need help with...

1. My smilies do not work in the Shoutbox and I have changed the path in the database to the full path of the image.

2. How can I make the width of the vbindex portion of the main page the same width as the nav bar?

1. They can't be the correct path if they don't show. Make sure its a full URL like http://www.mysite.com/forum/images/smilies/smile1.gif

2. Edit the VBINDEX template to suit your needs.

When I right click the properties of the image placeholder in the shoutbox, it does not show the same path as what I changed it to in the database. I have checked all that I know.

Also if it was wrong, then they would not work in the forums, and they do.

The path that the placeholder shows is:

http://www.mysite.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif

And the path that is in the smilies manager is:

http://www.mysite.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Also NTLDR, do you think you can set me up as Licensed over at Coreforums?

Seems vB isn't updating the smilies properly, create a file with the following content:

PHP Code:
<?php

require_once('./global.php');
require_once(
'./includes/adminfunctions.php');

build_image_cache('smilie');

?>
That should rebuild the smilies and update the correctly. Once you have confirmed your email I can mark you as licenced.

That worked perfectly. It might not have been VBulletin. I used that script in this thread to manualy update the database with the path and that may have been the cause. I have 50 smilies and thought that may have been quicker than going through one by one.

Thanks for everything.

You have to be very careful with that script - it will make the changes that YOU ASK FOR.
