I just did a test with what is stated in the instructions

I also tried
http://www.yorkietalk.com/adv_index.php?page=links
and I don't get the center block with my info (which I put in index_links and uploaded to my server)
Any clue on what is wrong? Thanks for your help! I love my front page now!

ok people i need your help. i have vbadvanced set up and its been runnin smoothly -but recently it will not want to load - http://www.pcgamesonline.com/swg/ is the forums and then http://www.pcgamesonline.com/swg/adv_index.php is the homepage.
can anyone help with this?
Also anyone up for helping me getting a skin made.
fasteddie - Did you create a new template called index_links, or a new file (as you suggested above)? You should create a new template that contains the information you would like to display on that page.
Assault - I'm not sure what you mean... The vBa Homepage I'm running on both of my sites only has the latest threads sections...
MaDCaT75 - Those are in your main styles section. You just need to change the image paths and be sure they point to the full URL to the folders.
ChrisMJ - Did you receintly upgrade to a newer version of vBulletin? If so, upload the advindex_install.php file to your admincp directory, go to it in your browser, and then select the option to install only the templates.

Thanks for the help Tigga. I did figure out I needed to create a template instead of a file. :)
However, can you tell me how to get the blue header box and the text box for my text on this page?
http://www.yorkietalk.com/adv_index.php?page=intro
It should be put in a table with classes. Something like this...
<table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" class="tborder" width="100%">
<tr>
<td class="thead">Yorkie Information</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="alt1">Content Here</td>
</tr>
</table>

this question is a repost of mine from over on vbadvanced.com
*problem*
http://www.clubprotege.com/adv_index.php works excellently.
http://www.clubprotege.com/adv_index.php?styleid=13 does not.
the primary header image used is not consistent with the style,
try going to my second link above
then entering the forums.
the header is three images for the theme, but the page template is only missing one image, and even it's filename is wrong for that theme.
i found out what vBadvanced is calling for the image, under stylevars in the style manager, the "Title Image".. but the theme does'nt use that at all.
all image paths except the header have been have all been corrected.

that fixed it, thanks. don't know how i overlooked that.
I am trying to install this and am on step two and already confused. The instructions say:
"Open the templates.txt file which was included in the zip file. Make the changes to each template as specified there."
The way its written is like this is the most obvious thing in the world so maybe I am asking a stupid question, but what does that mean? There are no instructions in the template.txt file, just code. Where do I put that code? Talk to me like I'm a dummy...cause I am.
Thanks,

Thanks Nexvision, but that does not provide any more info than the Readme did. :)
Anyhow, the problem I was having is I did not know where to find the templates. I happened to see them when I clicked the wrong drop-down when selecting a style and got the job done. All is working now.
I would suggest changing the readme instructions to be more specific there, like noting where you find your templates.
So far, it looks like and awesome portal!

There is a setting in vB3 to ignore words in quotes for a minimum post limit, I'm sure someone that knows about the ins and outs of vB will be able to use that somehow.

Perfect! Is there a way I can make a small box called "Today's Events" and have today's events listed in there, like in a "Latest Threads" format? Not sure if it's supposed to do that automatically or not. Thank you!
I too would like to show events as you are suggesting. It should follow vB's option to display events up to X number of days ahead of time (upcoming) - perhaps up to X number of events as well.
This would probably be even more useful than the mini-calendar, as it would bring out the events by name.

So, what should this look like:

Your chdir should be something like /home/eajunkie/public_html/onlinesportsgames/forums
your URL should not go in there. The best way to find out is to ask your web host provider to provide you with that info.

Now, when a guest is is viewing the portal, they can see posts from sections that guests or even members are not allowed to see..? Is this a bug?
Also, how do I have it so when a member is on the portal, it shows a link in the navbar for forums, and when they are @ the forums it shows a link for home?

What about the issue with a guest or member seeing forums their usergroups do not have permission to see? The permissions are set correctly in Forum Manager too.
Tigga, could you add a custom user editable box, so it would be something like a signature, every user could enter whatever he wants (without HTML or with?) and it would show up in the predefined place? For exampe some counters or links, or telephones, whatever - what do you think? A custom user filled block, maybe even (in the future) an address DB, because, for example, I've made a SMS sending system over the world and would love to have not only my Buddy names inserted in the TO: field, but other people names as well, not they're phone numbers.

Hi guys, I have a problem I was wondering if you could help me with. I've tried to do it myself, but to no avail. Basically I want the news to show on my homepage inside an iframe - the way I want my design to work I can't really afford the space that it requires as is. In vB2 I used PluhNews to pull the news to a seperate page called news.php, included it in the iframe and removed the MyvBindex news template.
The way I thought about doing it is in the same way that you can create vBAdvanced powered pages, by using for example index.php?page=news - and this news page contains the newsbits. I tried hacking this in myself and failed, could you possible point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance - heh. :)
Should my vB be installed at my main page (index of public_html) in order for the portal to show up at my domain alone or should I install the forum in a sub directory in order for the portal to be my sites homepage?

It works fine, I just tried it on 2 boards. One was a clean install and the other was just upgraded from RC-4 to Gold. On the upgrade I had to re-upload the advindex_install.php file and run it again, I just chose the option to 'load templates' or something, it's the option that is mentioned when you are upgrading Vbulletin. Then I made the necesary edits to the files in the 'includes' folder.
Woking fine now.

So in the end we can't upgrade to VB gold?
I upgraded by vB 3 RC 4 to gold with absolutely no problems at all. Check it out at http://www.daniweb.com
Which steps (in which order) did u follow to not overwrite vbadvanced?
Thanks!
Which steps (in which order) did u follow to not overwrite vbadvanced?
Thanks!
Here's what I did;
1) Upgrade to Vb-3 Gold (upload all files and run upgrade script, as per instructions).
2) Depending on which templates that you revert when upgrading to Gold (you have a choice) you may have to make all the edit changes as per the Vbandvanced instuctions (calendar templates, some files in the 'includes folder etc). Check those now and edit as needed.
3) Important! Re-upload the 'advindex_install.php' to the admincp folder and run that script again (http://yoursite.com/forum/admincp/advindex_install.php) but after you give the admin login CHOOSE THE THIRD OPTION , it;s something like;
Click here to install ONLY the templates (useful after upgrading vBulletin) -->
This will make the necesary updates to the new VB-3 files and you shouldn't lose any of your VBadvanced hacks, because those are left untouched, they don't get overwritten by VB-3 files with a couple of exceptions like the Navbar template etc.
Pretty much just following the original instructions except not uploading the index.php file and choosing the third option when runniing that script.
Chas.
P.s. To answer Powerpig's question, if you run the script to re-install the tempaltes you will probably have to go back into the Vbadvanced options section of the admincp and enter your news forum ID number etc to get that to show up again on the index page. This is all in the instructions for a 'new' install, you can download the zip again if you don't have those instructions.
chas above is correct... Follow that and you won't go wrong..
However, when you are doing the file edits you will notice one change from RC4 to GOLD:
Instead of looking for:
Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.

Is this not the latest?
That couldn't be v1.1 if you were getting that error. That query was changed for v1.1 (IIRC) after vB3 Gamma was released and the filesize column was added to the customavatar table, and was no longer unique to the attachment table.

anyway i disable this login since i will be using vbulletin navbar.
by the way I notice in my vbulletin navbar, yours shows as Ero Web Services instead of Home, how did you change it? I tried searching in phrase manager but can't find a right one...
Hey All
Well looks like there may still be one bug, read all thru the post, didn't see a comment on it, just downloaded the file yesterday, had no issues installing it.
vb 3.0 RC 2
Seems that on refreshing the buddy list is adding dupes to your buddy list, on inital navigation to the front page, the buddy list displays the names only once.
After a refresh it begins to add duplicate listings of ppl in your buddy list.
Has anybody seen this yet or is it just me?
I got this problem too! Using vb 3 GOLD.
snakes1100 - The buddylist problem is something I haven't heard of before... Does it display the duplicate names on the online users part as well (assuming you have that enabled)? They both use the same query and method to display things, so I would *think* that if there was an issue that it would be present there too. Have any of your other members mentioned the problem? Can you post here or PM me with a link to your site so I can have a look?
Hi Tigga,
Here's the screen shot (sorry no image photoshop in my office so I paste it on WORDS) of my homepage with the duplicated buddy list :
here's another one :
http://www.geocities.com/bloodcoolsg/buddy.txt
Hi there,
I just upgraded a vb2.3.4 which was running VBPORTAL to VBUlletin 3.0 GOLD.
I've then installed VBAdvanced from scratch and it's working ok EXCEPT that it only displays the very first "NEWS" thread *TITE* (not even the contents of it) of the NEWS forum, not the last xx as I told it...
Can I still fix this??
Hmmmm seems it autosolved once i turned forums back on ;)
Cool! ;)
Well I don’t know where to go anymore I have posted on vb.org earlier this week and got one reply and it wasn’t much help but I thank him for the effort… but the problem is when I log in, the home page doesn’t change to reflect that I am logged in, but, when I try and register, it notice that I am logged in. How do I fix this?
Any help would be greatly appreciated

how about just disabled the login used by vbadvance ? Since there is already login function on the navbar... its rather redundant and confusing to have two login on the same page. Probably u can wait till this have been solved by Tigga. Meanwhile disable it and use vbulletin navbar login. :ermm:

okies i fixed it. If you read my findings earlier, what I assume is correct.
replace your login crumb with mine :
Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------
I only added $session[sessionhash] to the value parameter
<input name="s" type="hidden" value="$session[sessionhash]" />
which was previously
<input name="s" type="hidden" value="" />
I guess after login, as there is no sessionhash, the homepage cannot recognise you being logon.

Also my forums are on a subdomain... will vbadvanced support that?

I have read all the threads here and saw the problem I am having once, but the member solved it himself and never really explained what was wrong..
I have installed the portal with my 3.0 Gold version - install went great with no errors...problem is now when I go to the page www.rustysoptraders.com/adv_index.php all I get is a blank screen. I will rename the adv_index.php to index.php when the problem is resolved. I have verified that the path to the forums directory is correct.
I have noticed that when I vew the source (online) of adv_index.php all I see is:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML><HEAD>
<META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=windows-1252"></HEAD>

Now I know the file I am uploading contains more then this - Im a total novice here...should I be seeing the rest of this file when I view source online?
Im really stumped here.

Here is a suggestion. Why not have a separate navbar for the vBadvanced homepage. I know what you all are going to say. Why not modify the one the way you want it. The reason you can not do this is because if you do then you have to keep into account that it will be the same navbar that is in the forums and where ever the end users goes. The reason I would like to have a separate one is because there are some things that I want in my homepage navbar that I do not want in the forums. For example I don’t want the items above the actual drop downs. I don’t need the folder name and the Welcome stats/login box. That is already included in the vBadvanced homepage. But I would like this displayed in the forums because some users login through the forums and the folder option is nice to have in the forums. But you can not change one because they are the same navbar called up for both.

I managed to install the addition, "I think"
problems or mis-understandings are as follows
1. On my home page now I have all the features that are talked about. However the News posts that I want to show are simply not coming up. See thumb attached.
2. Finally what should I have done with the old index.php file? Do I simply change the adv_index.php to index.php and that is it? I ask this one because clicking forums anywhere leads to the home page where if someone were to click forums then I would think it should go to the forums listings.
Sorry if this is a little unclear.

VBadvanced takes over your default forumstyle...
BUT... the styles are different from vB 2 to vB3.
You will need to redefine your style settings when you upgrade from 2.x to 3.0
That will ask more time then installing the vbadvanced page ;)

Thanks for reply , but is it possible edit adv_index template or php file, add [bburl] to the image path?Because there is no problems for forum pages (not vbadvance index page), the image page only missing "/forum/"
Thanks
Ok, i fixed my problem, why some images cannot display properly or the image path missing "/forum/"
Here is the solution:
Edit the Images path in FULL URL such as "http://www.domain.com/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif" ...etc
There has 3 place to edit it
1. Style Manager -> Click GO to edit templates-> "Image Paths"
2. Post icons under Admin CP
3. Smilies under Admin CP
Thants all !!!

So is there any thoughts of multi-installs ?
IE: install to sub folders in a site each install with different settings: news forum, poll, ect. I was thinking of a portal system for many subjects all pulling data from 1 forum install.
$site / articles
$site / gallery
$site / subject whatever
Each install with its own "settings" and homepage.

Question from a man who wants to eat his cake and have it too.
VB3 Gold.
I would like to make VBA my home.
I have vague ideas of PHP, so I try not to mess up my script's code.
Can you tell me how much an installation of VBA will change my VB code?
And in future, would I have to do anything unusual to upgrade VB now that VBA would be a part of it?
Really, how much does VBA change the default VB?
Thanks.

sola, anytime you install a hack, you should keep the .txt file that came with it, and ALWAYS comment the code out that your are replacing, and comment the sections of code you add. when you comment, come up with a search term so that you can easily find all file mods.
for instance, when you install vbadvanced, and it tells you to edit a .php file, and says find this: and replace with this:
instead of replacing, simply comment it out using // HACK VBADVANCED REMOVE
and before your added code put // HACK VBADVANCED START and at the end put // HACK VBADVANCED END
do the same for template mods, and now anytime you want to remove a hack, just refer to the txt file that you saved from the hack, go into each modified file and search for your string, and uncomment out what needs to be uncommented.
as far as how much vbadvanced changes your forums, id say basically not at all. its more of an addition rather than a major change. following the instructions step by step carefully resulted in a very easy installation IMO, witht he only minor bug being a clear.gif issue they have already resolved i think, and a missed image path name.
when you upgrade vb, its basically a amtter of doing the upgrade,t hen reapplying the vbadvanced changes that were effected. when i changed from rc4 to vb3gold, i did the vb3gold install, then went back into the vbadvanced install and had the news issue fixed in 15 minutes. i am not a coder, but i do pay attention to detail, and i can follow if statements and the logic behind the code, and their wording and layout seemed very easy to me.
Also, the VBAdvanced homepage as well as this thread ahd all of the instructions on how to do this within a day of vb3gold being released.

First off, I must say, this is an EXCELLENT HACK! Thank you very much!!
If I can make one suggestion, it would be to NOT make the actual code replacements in an HTML read me. The reason being is that web browers on some platforms add small "invisible garbarge" characters when they are displayed. Thus, cutting pasting from a browser and not from a TXT read me is probably what is making some people not hack their php files correctly.
Again, this is a minor suggestion, and I want to thank you for the time in setting up this hack. I love it!

yea thats a good question i am just trying to figure out what i do when i install this mod how are people supposed to view the forums if i have to overwrite the index.php for the forum with the one for the portal. b/c people cant view the whole forum then.
^^^ you dont over-write the FORUMS index.php... VBA goes in your PUBLIC_HTML directory...
the FORUMS should be like: /public_html/forums/ so your forums will show up as http:// yoursite.com/forums
so now if you have the VBA in the public html directory you just install it - then delete you old INDEX.HTM file... then it comes up nicely...

i still need to know how to get content into these custom blocks!!!

Most people put their forums into a directory called /forums or /community or into another folder, if youve plraced vBulletin into your root diretory.
Step one rename your current index.php to forums.php
Step 2 rename adv_index.php to index.php
Step 3 AdminCP > vBulletin Options > Forums Home Page Options > Script Name for Forum Home Page > change to whatever you originaly named index.php to with out the .php
so if you changed it to forums, it now read forums in that box
