vB Easy Auction v1.1
by yoyoyoyo Don't let the length of this post fool you... this is actually very simple to setup... I just tend to get long-winded at times... WHAT YOU NEED: * vBulletin Software (for vBulletin integration - the perl files will work fine without vBulletin) * Web server account that has CGI capabilities, and will allow you to run executable cgi files. * Perl 5.6 or better installed on that web server. Contact your server administrator if you are unsure (most servers are running version 5.8.X, so this should not be a problem). If you do not have perl installed then read a little further below about perlsp. * Access to either Sendmail, BLAT, or Sockets mail. No mail can be sent without at least ONE of the above. If you are using either BLAT or Sockets mail (NT users usually), you will also need access to an SMTP mail server. Contact your server administrator to find out if you do. Note: the SMTP mail server needs to allow the user to send mail without requiring them to log into the server. OVERVIEW This will add auctions to your site quickly and easily. Simply edit the auction.pl file and admin.pl files to reflect your server's filepaths, etc., and then upload the files to your server. Create a template and make a couple edits to your vbulletin files to allow navigation to your auctions and that is it! The core of the auction is based on a HEAVILY modified version of EveryAuction Release Version 1.53, and can be further edited or modified to suit your needs, as long as you follow the GNU public license. SEE POST #1 OF THIS THREAD FOR INSTALL INFO, ETC. If members of your site are interested in participating in the auctions then they need to register for them also, since this is not integrated with the vBulletin database for security reasons (since people put actual contact info, etc. in their auction registrations).

If it is totally blank then you are missing the template and if that is the case then either you didn't actually save it, or you named it something other than auction If you see the header and footer, with A LOT of blank space or a "FILE NOT FOUND" error message inbetween (but no auction) then you need to make sure that the URL in the iframe reflects the URL to your auction.pl file. |

Here is an option for folks who don't have CGI access:
http://www.cgispy.com/scripts/auction.shtml They offer free hosting of their version of the EveryAuction script. It doesn't have all of the same features as the one I wrote, but it will work, as long as you don't mind their banner ad on your auction page. You also won't be able to change the style, etc. to match your forum, like you can with the version I wrote, but it will still be an auction. To use this simply change the URL in the iframe area of the template to match the auction that is hosted at cgispy.com. Then there is no need to worry about uploading the files, CHMOD'ing, etc., yet you can still integrate the auction in to your site. This is obviously much less desirable than keeping the script on your own server, but as a last resort for people who want to use this script, but don't have a server that allows them to use PERL executable scripts, I thought it was a good option. EDIT: I also just found this page: http://www.planetscream.com/auction/ simply click on "new page" to start creating your auction site. There are many other sites that offer free EveryAuction hosting... just search google for "free EveryAuction hosting" and you will find a few more. Hope this helps NOTE: I do not have any experience with any of these free hosts, nor do I endorse any links in this post. Just trying to help. |

If you really added your auction template then it should appear in the Style Manager, after you click on "Edit Templates" and you should see an extra template that you added near the top under "custom templates" that is called "auction" and it will be highlighted in red. If you do not see that template listed there then you did not add it. If you see it, make sure you spelled it correctly: auction If you spelled it correctly, make sure that the content of the template matches the template I posted earlier in this thread for you, but be sure to change the URL in the iframe area to match the URL to your auction.pl script. This hack is really very basic: it has a simple vbulletin powered php page that pulls in the content from a template. That template is an iframe that points to the URL of your auction.pl script. If you are seeing a blank page then something about your template is not correct. |

I only added the template to 2 of my skins and I have 5. Could this be the problem?
