Sounds like you might need to update your member files/ post history, etc... did you clkear your cache? this is a pretty straight forward mod to install.

I cleared everything and rebuild evreything ..

is it the problem for letting Unregistered users to post and reply?

I can't tell what version you are runnig since you have removed the copyright notice. Please add it back before we give you assistance.... thanks.

6.00 Gold

You can't get assistance here unless your copyright is put back in... thanks for understanding, but you are violating the license agreement and could cause problems for ubbdev if we assist those who do.

oops...
let me put it back..

Hack works Great ..it's working perfectly on my forums ..thanks Guys

It says to edit PUBLIC_FORUM_PAGE.PL and PUBLIC_TOPIC_PAGE.PL but cannot find any such files - Am I looking in the wrong place???

[ March 18, 2001: Message edited by: SpearsLover ]

those are in your templates folder, and are in lowercase there...

thanks q_ware, let me know when you are ready...

you're welcome planet, tho slurpee, qasic, and leshrac did most all the work.

Got the cause of the bug.

If an unregistered user reply the msgs, the forum will die.

PS, I'm still finding all the places to re-add the copyright... >_< (I deleted too much)

all the more reason to make everyone register... they don't have to wait for a password if you don't have email verification turned on, but it's always a good idea to have them register...

Works great for me ^^^^^^^^^^^

Gotta love this easy modding UBB6 code

Hello, I have a question.

How can I modify the main page, that the link goes to the last post, not only to the last answered topic?

such like this hack

i have a problem all i have checked if i did copy it good in al the 3 files

but still this error

Content-type: text/html
Software error:
Illegal division by zero at D:/webserver/wwwroot/~test/cgi-bin/ubb_forum.cgi line 337.

For help, please send mail to this site's webmaster, giving this error message and the time and date of the error.

can somebody tell me?
i know it's not a error from me ( hehe i hope )

I just released this hack, it is located here:

http://www.ubbdev.com/ubbcgi/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=20&t=000152

I have only installed this once, so I can't say for sure that it is 100% bug-free, but it installs very straight-forward, there's nothing difficult about it at all. This one is explicitly for ubb 6 gold, so if you are running on beta, it's gonna be different in some places and is unsupported.

You might check to make sure you haven't copied over a } or sometrhing, or left one out... it is most likely an install problem.

Could it be because of the corrupted zip file that infopop released in the "first few hours"?

worth a shot

works like a charm! made some minor cosmetic changes.. but it's the hack that I've missed the most.. Thank you thank you thank you!!

hey KodoSan can you point me how you have put all the info in one line ?
i was playing with this today & i havent figured it out,i droped the idea after 10 min

Search the instructions for
and delete it

Or if you want the exact code, its in ubb_forum.cgi in the following code you added in:

$last_post_username = qq!
$vars_wordlets{last_reply_by}: <A HREF="$vars_config{CGIURL}/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=$in{f}&t=$one$page_num#$last_post[1]">$last_post_username</A>!;

Only other change I would suggest, although cosmetic, is to modify the words "Last Reply by" to only "by" in vars_wordlets.cgi. Since the column already says Last post, its redundant and makes forums really wide and double up on smaller monitors.

Mine reads:

03-21-2001 00:52 by: Username

rather than

03-21-2001 00:52 Last post by: Username

thx Tim for the Tip & keep up the good work with 3dfiles
edited my post to say that it worked great & its exactly what i wanted

[ March 21, 2001: Message edited by: Abyss ]

I noticed that the "Pages: 1 2 etc" are located below the subject in this forum. How did you achieve that?

I suppose it's only a
tag, but where does it go?

oh sure. leave it to TIM to steal my glory..lol. It's back to tweaking the boards eh bubba!!!

I just wanted to say a quick "thank you" to the author of this hack. It was my single most favorite hack from UBB5.x, and now that I've got it in 6.0, I'm happy.

Kudos!

Yes, thank you. This works wonderfully.

... could you plz make an update for UBB 6.01 ?

To update for 6.01 just change the first step in the instructions to:





I think, I haven't tested yet but it seems to be the only difference

EDIT > This works fine on my board

I've split the code a bit to make it easier to read the rest of the posts in this thread, both blocks should be single lines, don't ya just love the way UBB6 does that

Grr, Ben. How about some carriage returns in that code block?

didnt work right for me in 6.01. last username came up fine, but right above the each members name was some code, I forgot what it said. I know I should have wrote it down!

example:

I'll look into this ASAP.

Content-type: text/html
Software error:
Illegal division by zero at D:/webserver/wwwroot/~test/cgi-bin/ubb_forum.cgi line 338.

same error with the correct zipper ( without crc ) v 6.0 No beta,so hmm what is the problem?

I am seeing a bug that was in the version for v5 as well. Say you have your threads limited to 25 posts per page. With this mod installed, whenever you get to 24, it links to the next page (that isn't there) instead of the correct one. This happens when the thread gets to 49, 74, 99, etc.

Allen, I found that problem too and fixed it.

If you replace this:



With this:


Problem solved!

Can somebody update the primary hack files and install stuff with the latest fixes, thanks.

slurpee could you copy and paste it in a text file when i grab the solution i cant paste it in the cgi because then it come's out strange and not correct.

thnx.
Wizkid

I'll have this updated on the website tonight.

PsxBasement, the quick and dirty way would be to save the HTML. Open up in your favorite HTML editor. Copy and paste from there (it always works for me ) for proper formatting.
