is it confirm that this will worjk on 2.2.9?

Hi erdem

1. Is it possible to make some categories accesible for administrator/moderator's only ?

2. I would like to have the posibility to upload files, instead of using the file url.. I dont want to store them in database, but as files..

great hack by the way

regards freesurfer

is it possible to edit the code and add an upload feature?

[jarvis]

Okay, love the hack.

Simple question... I cannot find the $catlist2bit template that is referenced. What I want to do is change the {categoryfontcolor} to a static color as this color does not show up very well on my first and secondalt row colors.

Am I clueless, or where is this template? Thanks!!

[jarvis]

Okay, I figured out my above question.

Next question. I see you have updated the zip file in the original post. What are the changes, and is there an upgrade routine that we should run to aply these changes?

Thanks! :nervous:

sorry but there arent any update routine ...
first of all change the files with the new files ...
and if you have an opportunity reinstall file archive system ...

Okay, thanks for the reply.

I will probably uninstall and then reinstall. Seeing as how I just installed and haven't poulated the databases yet, shouldn't be too bad.

Next question. Your update in the first post says to upload and access filesinstall.php? I do not see this in your updated zip file? :ermm:

Also, do you have a changelog as to updated/fixed features in v2.0?

Thanks again!

[erdem]

the zip file's dir skeleton is :

/filearchive
|- admin (dir)
|--> filesadmin.php *
|--> filesinstall.php *
|-> files.php (+)

-> upload these 2 (*) files ur forum admin dir ;
filesinstall.php for install and filesadmin.php for administration ...
delete filesinstall.php after install ...
-> upload files.php to forum main dir ...

i have no changelog ... but some @ my mind ;
-> special characters and bbcodes now accepted ...
-> error at error msg display fixed ...
-> admin panel fixed for new entries and edits ...
-> report file added ...
-> add file template and code fixed ...

For the advanced search, would it be possible to order the parks different ways? like by creator or category?

[chitown]

I cannot get it to parse the urls properly, it saves the file, creates the new thread the the url and vbcode is not correct shows the [url] instead of the clickable url
