VB-O-GRAM ....... Site Promotional Tool

And you thought that greeting cards had died ....... think again! ... lmao

This hack will add a not-so-unique feature to you community in the form of a great promotional tool

It can display both normal images and flash files (.swf)

1 file edit
1 template edit
2 new db table

This hack uses and includes a copy of the [HIS] Hack Installer System (Build 3)
released by Link14716 and can be found here --> https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=71542

The admin area here is basicly a copy of the vB Jukebox.
You can upload all your images and flash files from your browser

I have not included any permissions so both your members and guests can send -O-GRAMS to promote your site

in the pic you will see that i called mine Trafix-O-GRAM .... however in the admin options you can call it whatever you like

ahhh what the hell here is the demo .... go look for yourself ..... but you cant register as it is a dev forum but i think it should be fine your your testing. i only have the one flash file and i have used some crappy images to test with. http://srv01.orpbus.com/~admin152/up...ain&imageid=12

I will reserve the first few posts to add links at a later stage to member flash file contributions

OOOPS .... nearly forgot .... Please click INSTALL

UPDATE ... fixed install quirie

Got full wysiwyg set. Added phrase helped, thanks. But still cannot type message in gram. Can type message in gram response though. Truly bizarre.

got to go. Thai GF pissed. LOL

PS: Spelling error "receiver" in email subject line.

Got any suggestions as to how to upload these swf files?? I tried to upload your waterfall swf, and it won't depict, though it does show in the list.

It's uploaded, I can view it in the ADMINCP area, but it won't show in the forum.

[trafix]

ok did you try uploading it with your ftp?

[docvader]

I uploaded it via the admincp area. works great. I can view it in the admincp area too. but it won't show in the gram area of the forum.

Hmmmm.

It's slowly coming together. I guess I had a really faulty install. Must be something else missing. Maybe a complete deinstall, and reinstall, is in order? how would I deinstall it though? Unless there's an easier way to fix this.

[trafix]

hmmm, dont do that yet .... i will have a look

[docvader]

I'd hate to deinstall him:

Thanks.

[trafix]

ok .... edit your waterfall ... you must have the dimentions entered into the db

the waterfall is 300 wide and 400 hight ... that will fix it

Maybe I need to have some more coffee before I try this?

Me thinx I am being ignored here.......

Run the installer. Do the edits and template edits. Create the images folder.

THEN, go into Vboptions, the gram part, and make sure you identify the name of the folder that you created, which is chmod 777, and, is within the forum directory.

Hope it works better for you than it did for me, LOL. But it's a great hack.

It also seems that you have to input dimensions for your images, for them to show in the gram box.

OH, your swf files need to be smaller than your upper limit attachment size.

Trafix, still don't have message ability in the gram.

Thanks, Doc -

If it helps any, I tested your link. Sent an email & it went through flawlessly - as unregistered, but it worked as advertised.
