Major Additions - vBulletin 3.0.3 Journal System 1.0

I am closing my forum very soon and I don't this hack to go to waste.

This hack is like Ryangel's but is fixed up significantly.

All is explained in the readme file.

A demo here.

It's definitely a blank page. I am still a n00b with vB but I am getting better.

But I got the journal to show up. I still need to modify some stuff but at least I can browse directly to it now.

Have you installed this one Paul? I was checking out the other 'bane' version that is similar but the phrases and all the other things that needed to be added were kind of overwhelming, so I went with this one.

Actually yes i have installed this and i find it works quite well and is pretty simple.

how do I add templates from the XML File? I am a N00B too

Easiest way - install the style as another one that users cannot use. Go into its templates and copy over the journal templates theirs not that many of them.

ok, i am not a coder but i think the issue may be that it does not see my vb3 user table. it is looking for .user but mine is .vb3_user

So do i go into journal php and change any "user" to "vb3_user" ? thanks!

sross · 09-15-2004, 12:49 AM

ok well, tried playing with the journal.php but am clueless. no idea where or how to make it use "vb3_user" table instead of "user" table

sross · 09-15-2004, 02:05 AM

no worries, i changed my db tables to remove the vb3_ the journal is working now

ok, well I have it up and running and although this port is lacking some functionality it's still great for a basic system. I have 2 main bugs bothering me and not sure if anyone here can help.

1. if a user does not have an avatar i get the red-x for them, i am not sure how to make this show nothing or show a blank image? here is that code:

Quote:

<div align="center">
<a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$journalid"><img align="absbottom" src="$avatarurl" alt="<phrase 1="$post[username]">$vbphrase[xs_avatar]</phrase>" border="0" /></a>
</div>

2. the edit and delete buttons show on each post even if the user doesn't have access. when a user without access clicks edit or delete they can not edit or delete, they just get a white page. Is there anyway to make that redirect or tell them they do not have access? Thanks!

sross · 09-16-2004, 04:47 AM

no prob, i paid a coder to sort it all out, not sure what he did but it works fine

memobug · 09-16-2004, 06:29 AM

Since there is only one file, I'd bet the relevant changes would be in journal.php if you'd care to share it!

Regards,

Matt
