I installed it in my forum and noted that a post from a tarbed user appears in index.php as the last of that forum, but if you click in the link, it not works (surely not, the post is tarbed

)

( I really LOVE this MOD... I almost cannot wait for it

whoa! ths got way more responce than i expected! thanks for all the awesome responses!

I've been cleaning up my mod howto a bit... found a few more issues.

I'm also working on the tarb toggle for topics/posts... I kinda need some help. I'll be the first to admit, i'm no good at graphic design

, but i want to make this look as integrated as possbile with the subsilver skin. Would it be possible for someone to create 2 simple icons like the icon_delete.gif for posts, and topic_delete.gif for topics for the tarb toggle?

Karlg: first try looking here
http://www.forumimages.com/misc/mini_icons.html

if there isn't already anything, ask daz nicely in the forums
theres plenty of info on how to, but you need photoshop

well, thats what i was looking for
but when the tarbed user post a topic, is ther anyway the Last Post doesnt show the username, and the Topics and Posts doesnt change?

I have installed this, the only problem is that the user and admin don't see the post.

It never get's posted.

The message goes to be posted and then isn't.

Anyone?

Hey Guys
This is beta software, and we are all just testing it for them in the hope that it will one day be complete and stable. (bug squashing being a major step forward)

/me prods karlg with a stick

@Antony: did you run the SQL updates

Antony · Post by **Antony** » Sun Mar 30, 2003 9:40 pm

I did run the sql, I shall run it again to make sure.

fcosta · Post by **fcosta** » Sun Mar 30, 2003 9:40 pm

and i didn't understand what is to do in this part:

Code: Select all

# 
#-----[ OPEN ]------------------------------------------ 
# 
posting.php 

# 
#-----[ IN-LINE, FIND ]------------------------------------------ 
# 
# After this line: 
#submit_post($mode, $post_data, $return_message, $return_meta, $forum_id, $topic_id, $post_id, $poll_ 
#id, $topic_type, $bbcode_on, $html_on, $smilies_on, $attach_sig, $bbcode_uid, str_replace("\'", "''", $username), str_replace("\'", 
#"''", $subject), str_replace("\'", "''", $message), str_replace("\'", "''", $poll_title), $poll_options, $poll_length); 
if ( $error_msg == '' 

# 
#-----[ IN-LINE AFTER, ADD ]------------------------------------------ 
# 
&& $userdata['user_tarb'] != "1"

That piece of code appear twice, but I try one and I get the problem of no post is actually entered.

IF i put it the other then it gives a debug error.

This was a bug with the first patch.... so i've verified the patch works.... i did find one section of code missing. The edit above to posting.php is confusing... just make sure you put it in the right place.

Here's the missing edit to posting.php: i think this will fix your problems. If posting still isn't working, let me know. The're working on my testing board. I've tried to verify all the FINDs are unique.

Code: Select all

#
#-----[ IN-LINE, FIND ]------------------------------------------
#
# After this line:
#if ( $error_msg == '' )
#        {
if ( $mode != 'editpost' 

#
#-----[ IN-LINE AFTER, ADD ]------------------------------------------
# 
&& $userdata['user_tarb'] != "1"
