UBB.Developers Forums UBB.classic V6 MultiHack Mods [6.0x] Last User Name to Reply in Forum [ Finished ]

Hi all,

I fixed the legendary not registred user bug. The bug was caused by the fact that the hack tries to get the user number for the names, but what would happen if you try to get the user number for a unregistred user: Error. So I have made a check if the user exists ans only if there is a registred user I'll get the number and the link to the user profile, otherwhise I only would write the name. This bugfix also solves the problem with older threads for not longer existing user.

Here comes the code:


Regards,

Ok I installed the Hack on ubb 6.0 and it all works fine...

But I cant get into my Control Panel now..

It gives me this error..

thanks for this hack

Version 2.03 released on my website. Incorporates stk's code for people who are not registered

I am having a problem with the hack. It just displays : username. I added require "$vars_config VariablesPath}/vars_wordlets_mods.cgi"; un ultimatebb.cgi but it doesn't help. what now?

anyone? Please help an idiot.

Have you installed the Mod Wordlet module?

qasic

What do you mean by "installed"? I put the line require "$vars_config{VariablesPath}/vars_wordlets_mods.cgi"; from the earlier post into my ULTIMATEBB.CGI, but is gave me an error trying to read the file. (I am a complete UBB newbie). The error is:

"Error including required files:
Make sure these files exist, permissions are set properly, and paths are set correctly.".

I placed the new "require" immediately after the one for VARS_WORDLETS_DATE.CGI".

I placed "vars_wordlets_mods.cgi" into the VARIABLES directory beforehand, but no joy.

Any ideas? I KNOW I'll need the CGI above for other additions to the UBB system. Thaks in advance.

If that's the case (getting that error), that means that vars_wordlets_mods.cgi is incorrect somehow. Can you paste vars_wordlets_mods.cgi inside this thread and I'll find the bug for you

qasic

Here it is...

%vars_wordlets_mods = (
last_reply_by => "Last reply by"
);
1;

Thanks a million!

Very Nice Hack

Works Like A Charm

So, what did I mess up? It seems like everyone here knows MUCH more than I do. (sigh...)

You missed the comma after Last Reply By",

Check your mail. And next time, please be patient. We all do have lives you know

qasic

Thanks dude. One more question, how do I get that file into my CP? I don't see any ability to edit it there.

(BTW, my problem was that I didn't have the file in the CGI-BIN directory, as well as a missing comma.)

He's fixed that last problem

qasic

installed - worked - thats the way I like it

Ubb 6.04bg + some other Hacks

maybe someone can help me... i've installed this hack, but when i enter any forum it gives me always this error:

Software error:
syntax error at /hosting/gcgsm/public_html/cgi/ubb_forum.cgi line 77, near "@user_profile)"


what could be wrong?
Thank you.

nevermind, i've fixed it

how i can get the last reply by line to be next to the time and date of the posting, insted of underneath?

Does anyone have this up on 6.04e?

It's sure working on 6.04f...

Hi, I'm a complete newbe !

I tried to do that splenid hack, but it required me to alter : vars_wordlets_mods.cgi !!

I can't find that file... Where is it ?


Thanks.
Greetz,

Get the Mod Wordlet Module availble on DPK's website or on my website: http://www.qasic.com/

When i goto access the control panel i get an error with the vars_wordlet_mod file with the last_reply_by line

nm, i fixed that problem. but whenever i try to update/change my modification wordlets i get this error:

Unable to open wordlets file for writing: vars_wordlets_mods.cgi at /home/ejiboco/public_html/ubb/cgi-bin/cp_wordlets.cgi line 158.

sounds like you need to set the permissions on that file.

I have it running on my 6.05 board, but have a slight problem. It shows last reply by [username] but when I click a username, it just goes to the beginning of the post instead of the post of the user.

Any ideas?

Thanks

excuse me...but I HAVE A BIG PROBLEM!!!!...ive tried installing this hack 5 times already, and ive been getting this...my board is v6.04f...

PLEASE HELP ME..thanks

ive been waiting for soooo loongg...can someone please help? thanks in advanced..im really anxious to install the script..but i cant since i have that error...thanks again

i will give this a try.
Thanks for the hack and keep up the good work

iam still having that problem with the script..can someone please help me? iam trying to install it on ubb v6.04f ...thanks in advanced

the error i get is this:

Okay, I feel like a cretin, but ... I don't *have* public_forum_page.pl or public_topic_page.pl.

I just upgraded from v5.45 (yeah, I know) to v6.05, and there are NO .pl files at all ... everything is .cgi. There are also NO "public_" files ... everything is cp_, ubb_, or vars.

I just got the new board up & running, and this is the first mod I'm putting in. I had an analogous mod for the old board, and all my users want it back!

Thanks in advance for any help ...

This hack worked perfect.

freakomatic - look under your noncgi directory, there should be a subdirectory called templates. That is where all the public_ files will be located.

Yeah, I just found it and came back to post on my incompetence ... but ya beat me to it.

Jeez, imagine my embarassment ...

edit/ nevermind

I found a bug with using the last name user script and was wondering if there was any way around it.
Seems if you have a private section for like mods and admins it doesn`t work.
Works fine on the others as long as it`s not private. How to get around that?

I cant seem to get the ultimatebb_mod_wordlets_install.cgi to run, keep getting an 500 internal error..

Bare in mind, this is my first hack.. what am I doing wrong?

This isn't quite working properly for me

Thanks.

Addition:

I guess it's worth adding that i couldn;t get to the vars_wordlets_mods.cgi dl page, so I just put "Last post by:" into the source directly... I don't suppose this is the cause however, since the same problem existed before I added that text into the code.
