Version 1.0.1 released! [March 25th, 18:30]
New: ~ Backup files: Now the script will backup files before editing them. You can disable this, and also change the extension of the backup file. (note: the folder in which the files reside must be writable) ~ CHMOD: The script will try to CHMOD files instead of just dying. The parent folder must be writable if you want the script to CHMOD files in it. ~ Another small fix there's not much to say about. Ok here's something I wrote yesterday, and today after testing it on serveral forums I can finally release it.  What is it? vbHacker is a script that automatically installs hacks for you. It takes a xxxxx.hack.php file and comes up with the install script for it. This means you only need vbhacker.php to sit in your admin folder, and just upload data files every time you want to install a new hack. How does one create hack files? To make these xxxxx.hack.php data files, please read the post about vbHackMaker: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...&postid=231705 The script does the following: ~ Hack files (only PHP have access to write that file) ~ Install new templates ~ Update existing templates ~ Run queries If anything fails, the script skips it. Then you are taken to a page that lists all the changes the script couldn't do, with instructions how to do them yourself. You also have the option to generate a plain text file with complete hacking instructions, in case you prefer that. The installer also checks for your vBulletin version, warning you if the versions mismatch. I took some screen shots earlier of the various steps. Hack chooser - This is the part where you see a list of all hacks you have and you can choose which one, and whether to install it or create a text file: http://www.vbulletin.org/vbhacker/1_chooser.gif For the next screen shots I chose the Quick Reply Box hack. Elements to install - There you can choose what parts of the hack you want to install. There are four main parts: File hacks, new templates, template edits and queries. This is good for upgrades if you only want to update the templates, and nothing else. http://www.vbulletin.org/vbhacker/2_quick_elements.gif Specific changes - A more specific step that allows you to select exactly what changes to what files/templates you want to make. Once again, this is helpful when upgrading. http://www.vbulletin.org/vbhacker/3_quick_config.gif Auto installer - The core of the script that actually installs the hack. This is how it looks like when it works fine: http://www.vbulletin.org/vbhacker/4_quick_auto_ok.gif And this is how it looks like when something went wrong (because I made it go wrong  ):http://www.vbulletin.org/vbhacker/5_quick_auto_bad.gif Manual mode - An optional step that you will only use if the auto installer had some problems. It just lists the changes you need to do yourself: http://www.vbulletin.org/vbhacker/6_quick_manual.gif Text file - If you want to generate a text file with the full instructions to install the hack: http://www.vbulletin.org/vbhacker/7_quick_text.gif The style for my Admin CP was done by kier. Well, hope you like what you see.  I will start releasing my hacks with this installer soon, so you can see it in action. A script that creates these data files will probably come soon, so everyone will be able to use this for their own hacks.Attached is the script, version 1.0.1. Just upload it to your /admin folder, and you're done. Whenever you need to install a new hack just go to /admin/vbhacker.php in your browser. Show Your Support

Nice and useful upgrade, and within a day from the request !!! So I'm here to renew mine, if possible (or simply if you can give me an hint to do it myself if you don't want to include it out-of-the-box). Just asked if possible to have an html/txt output of the changes (the complete list) the script is going to apply, instead of checking later comparing the original and changed files, templates & DB. I.e., as said in Post #67, an intellectable version of the encapsulated *.hack.php. I just went out from the upgradeXX.php scripts and got crazy to findout all updates, so wouldn't replicate that effort installing each new hack... I'd like to understand what's happening. Another question: do you think it could be possible to put the vbhacker.php and all *.hack.php scripts in a stand-alone directory under the forum/admin/ ? Also the backupped files could be put in forum/admin/vbhacks/backup, for instance. This for clean reasons and this way a full hack history would be kept on the server... Thank you very much. Bye

You can see a text version of the hack right in the beginning, just select "Generate text file" in that radio button.
And I'll think about having everything in its own folder.

I have just tried to make a hack in this program (v1.01), and then convert it to a text file again, but it misses my mysql query... Can you check if this is an error on my part or perhaps an error in your program?
In the attached 31KB zip file there are 4 files: usersthreadviews.as.it.should.be.txt - This is how I wrote my hack myself, and is not automated. usersthreadviews.by.vbhacker.txt - This is the text file vbhacker made of it. usersthreadviews.hack.php - This is the encoded hack file. vbhacker.screen.gif - A screenshot of me entering data, so you can check if I made errors in there.

Issvar: That's a problem with the textfile function in vbhacker.php, I forgot to parse queries there. Fixed that, uploaded the new file to the first post.
