Same deal here. Should I go back to 1.1? Jigga-Master said that was a bug-free version... Or Jigga, do you know how to fix that problem?

The only way I've found to fix it at all is to upload a "clean" ubb_lib.pl, but then the hack doesn't work. frown

Oh yeah, how do I use Headlines? I want to display the top 5 or 6 headlines on the site homepage... but I didn't find instructions for the SSI pull (I guess that's how it's done?)...

[EDIT] Nevermind, I figured it out! [/EDIT]

this was last attempt
no success
instruction has active_topics.pl twice, could there be a file missing or something


/noncgi dir/Templates/ public_active_topics_headlines.pl (chmod 755)
/noncgi dir/Templates/ public_active_topics.pl (chmod 755)
/noncgi dir/Templates/ cp_vars_active_topics.pl (chmod 755)
/variables dir/ vars_active_topics.cgi (chmod 777)
/variables dir/ vars_wordlets_active_topics.cgi (chmod 777)
/cgi dir/ ubb_active_topics.pl (chmod 755)
/cgi dir/ active_topics_control.pl (chmod 755)
/cgi dir/ ubb_active_topics.pl (chmod 755)

Kool stuff, can we get this to work first.
Please mark as beta.

Your sig image below is 45k. That's WAY over the accepted norm I believe. You might want to cut it down, or use another. smile

heya jigga!

i apologize if this is the annoying back asswards questions asked a million times, but... will this hack provide a list of, say, the 5 most recent topics on an intro page, which then can be lead into your ubb?

or, are the 5 threads listed on ultimatebb.cgi itself? like, say, below the listing of forums

personally, id prefer the latter (i had my v5 set up like that, tho saw many more others choose the first style).

and (again, sorry) if this is NOT the kinda hack im lookin for... any plans on an addition fer it?

thanks fer the help

Here's what I did, Dze...


That was for Headlines display, which you can see it working on my homepage, BlizzardRealms.com , in the Latest Threads table up at the top. I changed mine around a little bit, so it only displays the topic title without the forum name, to save space in the table. smile

I'm currently using this hack with SSI and it works great!

But did the original post in this topic say it could be used without SSI?

If so, how? confused

Thanks for the reply and terrific hack, Jigga-Master, but I think I'm missing something.

I have installed the hack and it works great from the SSI call ( )
But I do not understand how to use it without SSI (Sorry for being so dense).

Previously you stated
Code
quote:</font><HR>go into your cp...and into the active topic settings!<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
and in mine I see:
<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, Arial">code:

but nowhere do I see how to implement this into my webpages.

Thanks again for the terrific hack!

A little bit confuse here, you said "just upload the following 3 files" and those files are:

ubb_active_topics.
active_topics_control.pl
ubb_active_topics.pl

isn't it suppose to be 2?

Sorry, Jigga-Master. I understand now.

I was under the impression I would be able to use the active topics to display a list of active topics on my other webpages (like my index page) without SSI.

It works just fine with SSI, but I was thinking of how I could implement this in other areas (like on my users start page, for example, each user would have a list of active topics on their start up page, etc.)

Anyway, thanks for the wonderful hack!

I see that you are using:
Code
code:

Can this call be used (or a similar call) to get the text of the message? (I would like to modify mine so it also display the first 25 characters or so of the post).

Jigga-Master how did you make the [my profile | regester | search ect..]

Part of your site did you edit every template file to make it look that way?

I'm just wondering because it looks really good and I wanted to do something simalar to that with my board.
