multihack dont work for me.....
can I get it in a .zip file ?

Ok it installs by multi with no errors. Problem is when you goto the forum settings and turn upload feature to on, submit change. Goto forum, it still states uploading not allowed in that forum. So I go back in CP look at forum settings and what is happening is the radio button for on/off is not taking. Niether on or off are selected. No matter how many times I pick an option, it doesnt take.

same problem here.

ok its working with a few forums but not with all. i think it only works with the newer forums i made.

btw, great hack. i need only one forum with file uploads anyway. thx for the hack.

hmmmm.. you are welcome but I'll look at this in the next couple days and see if I can find out what the problem is

AllenAyres your absolutely right, I'm sorry. I do thank you for this hack. Appreciation tends to be overlooked at times by others and myself.

Mental Note, "Must not forget the important things."

thanks goes out to Allen for this.

I got MH to finally work, but I am also seeing the 'not sticking' behavior.

Allen, I think that there is a reason for $RESERVED :rolleyes:

I can't really tell what's wrong, but I suggest you to move $in{upload} AFTER $RESERVED|^|, and change [18] everywhere to [19]...

I'm gonna make a Mod CP Addon version for it, do you mind if I post it Allen?

Fine with me

I tended to think it may be conflicting with reserved as well, but hadn't stopped to install it yet - we'll use the mod_cp version for the db upgrade.

Thank you so much.............
works fine, even in poll enabled forums

Mine worked until I tweaked the custom titles. The vars_misc.cgi get corrupt somehow... Maybe that will help the developers fix it...

Again, any non multihack formats of this out there?

You could also try the version I posted

hmmm everything seems to be working fine up until you hit "upload" then i get an internal server error. Any ideas?

Sounds like permission problems on your upload folder.

I think i have an answer to one of the problems.

If your using the LK version of this hack, the control panel section updates the vars_modifications.cgi file with the save to location BUT the upload.cgi code reads the save to location from the vars_misc.cgi.

I had this hack installed on my old 6.1.05 ubb so the vars_misc.cgi locations were carried over and i get an invalid folder error but if you havnt installed this before there will be no locations stored and I have no idea what error it will give...

Also theres a 5 on the end of the #!/usr/bin/perl line, on my ubb it wont do anything unless i remove it.

Anyway hope this helps (if i am right that is)

Forgot to ask, which is the best way to fix it, edit the mod or edit the upload.cgi?
