hmmm...looks like I need to see if there are open list/quote tags and close them in the tease. This should be interesting.

Hey Sub, here's a quick beta of what i've done with your script (yeh i know it's still kinda lame/buggy) UGN Security Test Page

*cough* mine works with the Colorforums hack *cough*

http://www.alforadmin.com/ubb/index.php

I don't need color forums hack though, mines just for my main page's content...

Sub, i found another error :choff:...

before you say it's one of my mods to it a clean copy my modded copy .

My issue is this, it doens't always update and i'd hate to have to rebuild my forum statistics to get it to update all the time... We have like 20 posts from today and it's not showing any of them...

Did you do fetch the one with sort fix Gizzy? If not, I'll put the sort patch up here. If you did, then I'll need to look and see why it has gone insane.

sub, the clean.php is the one i just downloaded :x...

Aye Aye Aye....I'll have to see if I remembered the sort fix in the zip on my server. If I did...welllll..I've got a problem

lol, i can't wait to get it working ... spent a bit of time customizing it lol, it'll pull the site together a bit...

Doh!

I forgot to commit the sort fix to the released version. I had it on my production version.

I'll fix the zip.

Patch:

Replace with:

mmm, makes it work perfectly! Now to get the quotes fixed :x... thanks

i dont get

on my test forum it runs well:
http://www.greek-covers.de/ubbtest/ubbnews3.php?forum=1

(ubb 6.6.1 - apache server)

on my regular forum it just says
http://www.greek-forum.de/ubb/ubbnews2.php?forum=1

(ubb 6.6.1 - apache server)

it's the same software, the same script all the same but no work

why is that like this ?!

rebuild your forum stat files then try it, I had the same issue and it cleared it up quite quickly.

For anyone running this who wants to use smilies in their news, you can use the to point to your ubb directory in your page that you're including from. Be sure however that in that document that you're linking directly to any images/pages/css that you have in the document since it'll look for them in your ubb directory. This is of coarse if you don't want to use a php implode to display your news and just want to use a common include.

Sub, as a sugguestion, perhaps have it so that the location of images loaded through your script is passed through the script and pointed back to the ubb directory?

The script already can see the NonCGI directory path via the UBB's config.inc.php (Line 7: include("$varspath/vars_config.inc.php");) so it shouldn't take much to get the path to the images. I've been swamped with other development so I haven't had a chance to look at the known issues lately. I have injected some code in my dev version to try to squash the list/code/quote problems but I haven't even touched that in a couple weeks.

Another alternative is to drop the ubbnews.php into your UBB's noncgi directory.

Sub, if you use a php include it doesn't matter where it's placed, it'll call the paths from that location.

:bump: any hope on an update sub?

For those of you wondering how to customize the script's output, check here

I think the quote/list/code issue is mostly squashed. Let me beat up on my beta version a bit more. I finally had a few days to do some development.

ya know you're really going through too much trouble. All I did was change the layout so that the Read More, etc links were in the next cell. blockquote, lists, etc don't pass through that. So essentially the only reason to update the script is for html compliance
