When installing this mod with EasyMOD on 2.0.6 I get :

"Critical Error

FIND FAILED: In file [admin/admin_forumauth.php] could not find:

// View Read Post
"

:cry:

Plain board but with hierarchy categories and flags MODs installed

when Installing this mod with easymod 1.0.6 I got no errors but after executing steps 1,2 and 3, (4 didn't apply to my situation)steps 2 and 3 remained on the list of easymod's uninstalled mods.

Otherwise they seemed to all execute perfectly, and I manually exectued the SQL Successfully using phpmyadmin. My ACP Now has a screen like this:

what do I do here? pardon my ignorance if this is the wrong forum for this. it seems appropriate. :)

MOD Data
MOD Title: Announces Suite - Part 1 (required for all setups) 3.0.2 MOD-announces-part1.txt


The very first part (And I do have Categories hierarchy installed, remember my newbie questions in that thread a day ago? ;) )

So the install died at line 515 or so - does that mean half the files were changed from part 1? Any way to at least undo and go back as was? Or even better get it to work? Thank ! ;)

in MOD-announces-part1.txt I see (from line 505):

#
0 => array(AUTH_ALL
#
#-----[ IN-LINE FIND ]----------------------------------------
#
, AUTH_REG, AUTH_REG),
#
#-----[ IN-LINE BEFORE, ADD ]---------------------------------
..... goes on



In admin_forumauth.php I dont see any references to view read post
etc at all.

This is running on Windows 2k if it makes a difference.

I do have a reference to the mods hierarcy installed in the admin_forumauth.php at the end :
//-- mod : categories hierarchy --------------------------------------------------------------------



//-- delete



// $switch_mode = append_sid("admin_forumauth.$phpEx?" . POST_FORUM_URL . "=" . $forum_id . "&adv=". $adv_mode);



//-- add



$switch_mode = append_sid("admin_forumauth.$phpEx?" . POST_FORUM_URL . "=f" . $forum_id . "&adv=". $adv_mode);



//-- fin mod : categories hierarchy ----------------------------------------------------------------



$switch_mode_text = ( empty($adv) ) ? $lang['Advanced_mode'] : $lang['Simple_mode'];

$u_switch_mode = '<a href="' . $switch_mode . '">' . $switch_mode_text . '</a>';



//-- mod : categories hierarchy --------------------------------------------------------------------

While I value your mods, I do think this new policy of allowing mods from established authors without thorough review is showing its effects...

:(

Feel free to join the team and to involve all of your times in the process of validation. Meanwhile, you can keep this kind of very rude comments to yourself, thanks.

Sorry for the perceived insult, Ptirhiik. I think you will see by this post here that I meant no disrespect; rather, I hold you in the highest regard. :oops:

There you are unrespectfull : towards myself, what I could accomodate with, and toward the mod team, what I can't :evil: . Also, if you have only a little involve in this validation process, you will have notice the issue encounter by this user is in any case a problem linked to the mod on a vanilia phpBB, which is perfectly installable, but on a phpBB already modified with categories hierarchy, and the "good" pack is only a split of the current one available on this topic to avoid this issue during installation. There, you are just a morron.

you are quite correct, I am unaware of the specific issues with the categories modification and this announcement suite. If that makes me a morron in your book, then I accept that.

As far as my post I referenced being disrespectful, I wrote it several times with specific mindset of it not bashing the mod team; I have nothing but respect for them and the time they put in. I was merely questioning a perceived changed in policy that I found troubling. There is no disrespect in asking a respectful question.

Thank you for your time and consideration, Ptirhiik. I do apologize for any perceived insult to you or the mod team, as that is not my intent in any way.
