Wlill this work with 3.5? OR do I have to do some modification. If so what do I need to change to have it working?

[tuanluu]

thanks for the hack I will try to add to later

[tuanluu]

hmmmmmmm will this work vb 3.0.8???

Hi

Have installed and everything is now working fine, Thanks a lot!

But, I have a problem, The guestbook, does it not break into more pages when a user gets a certain amount of guestbookcomments? If it does not break, the profilepage will become enormous and very long.

is it possible to make it so only those on your buddy list can use guest book or view home page ?

Okay, I have this installed on 3.0.7, and everything seems to work fine....except. Once you go into edit webpage and put in your text, nothing shows up on the profile page. It looks exactly the same as before, without the webpage mod added. This has probably been asked before, but I tried to read through the 62 pages of this thread and couldn't do it. Anyone have this problem and possibly a solution? I have checked the permissions, and they are all set correctly.

This is crazy. lol What could be causing them to not be saved? They are in the usergroup manager, and I have done everything as outlined. Everything appears to work fine, but I can't change the user permissions and have them stay!

*****UPDATE*****

If anyone else runs into this problem, and you have cpanel, use the "repair" feature beside the database that houses your forums. I ran both the "repair" feature as well as the maintenance via the forums ACP, and that corrected the settings not staying. They now appear to be working. Thanks everyone.

//Rich Clicked install.

I have the same problem, I'm using phpMyadmin, I've run the repair, optimize and analyze features in phpMyadmin as well as in the forums admin control panel. I've run a search on the thread and I haven't found anyone else with the same problem besides you.

I've double checked the init.php file and all the settings seem to be correct. Just keep multiplying by two for every entry, right? That's what I did and everything should be working as best as I can tell, but it's not and I don't know why.

I just ran the "Fix Unique Indexes" on the forums ACP and it it let me set my permissions for admins. Then I tried to do other user groups and it wouldn't keep the settings I made, but it did work for all groups after I set it a few times in each group. Seems like its just more of a luck of the draw kind of thing for some reason. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. I finally got all my usergroup settings working right for this hack now and I ain't screwing with it anymore. Don't know how to fix this bug for sure, but I ain't gonna chance having to go through all that again, so I'm leaving it alone while the going is good.

Still a great hack though!

Seems like you just gotta keep trying it until it finally takes. Took me a while, but I finally got my settings the way I want them.

[JD210]

I still have the same problem of not seeing the webpage or guest book, even with all the permissions set.

[Warlord]

You checked to make sure the settings took after you made them? Also be sure you set them for every usergroup.

You could also change them manually in the database if you can find them (I couldn't find 'em though).

[tuanluu]

This step
!!IMPORTANT PART!! #2
Go into vBulletin Options > Guestbook / Webpage Preferences. Click "Update". THIS IS REQUIRED FOR THIS SCRIPT TO WORK!

I have not get pass this anyone plz help or any idea?

Yep, sure did, and the permissions are all there and correct for all usergroups and all the permissions have held. I can get in, create/edit a webpage, but it does not show up afterwards.
