UBB.Developers Forums UBB.classic V6 MultiHack Mods [6.0x] Country Flag Hack 1.0

does anyone else get a problem that whenever you modify your profile you have to choose your flag every time? can it be done so it is like the avatar hack, where unless you change it, it stays where it was?

I had that problem too. But the flag was showing. I added the Code Buttons hack right after that and now I show a broken flag everytime.
the reason that I get the broken images is because for some reasons the image is displaying as http://www.myurl.net/exchange/flags...tes.gifhttp://www.myurl.net/excha nge/fl ags/United_States.gifhttp://www.myurl.net/exchange/flags/United_States.gif" alt="myurl.com is from Miami">


I disabled it from my cp and now instead of a dropdown box it shows a text box with the following line in there: http://www.myurl.net/exchange/flags...ifhttp://www.myurl.net/exchange/f lags/A ngola.gifhttp://www.myurl.net/exchange/flags/United_States.gifhttp://www.myurl.net/exchange/flags/United_States.gifhttp://www.myurl.net/exchange/flags/United_States.gif

myurl being my actual url.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
the problem seem to happen when you try to change a flag. The you get two or more URL back to back

Everyone who installed this mod might be intrested in this

nice work spawn

Glad you like it

Thank you! It worked for me. And I had move the flag after "From:" at below. It look more better. Just check the $Author_extra at the ubb_lib_posting.cgi (I forgot the name) and of course, remove both
at the flag cgi file.

Hi all,

Any way to make the Flag a required registration field?

Hi.

This is my first reply.

I try to install my first hack, the flags of Jigga-Master version 0.9b
but in setting flags show me that I don't have permision for to go inside.
Are there a posible problem with the license, I paid the individual for one year $125.oo
I have ubb version 6.04b

Another point in the instructions one file have the name cp_manage_flags.pl but, the file have this name cp_manage_flag.pl thera are one s in that.

Thanks.

i got a problem

the flags directory is http://www.gobblespot.com/ubb/flags

in the setup where it say...
Flags Path
Give the full path to your flags directory (e.g., /usr/www/ubb/flags)

i put in all the possible paths i can think of but when i go to flags setup, no flags are shown why??

Jigga or someone PLEASE HELP

im getting

Unable to open /httpdocs/ubb/flags/country.gif file for writing.
(this happend to all combinations of the actual path that i put in)

PLEASE HELP

I'm sorry if it sounds stupid for you guys, but isn't it possible to automise?
I mean to really hack a visitor's IP and make an automated choice of flags based on that?

flags setup? Not sure what that is. If you have everything right and no flags are showing, then try...


In the "registration settings" in cp.

1) Go to Primary Settings -> Flag Settings.

Look at the custom field and note the number.

2) Go to Primary Settings -> Registration Settings.

Under "Custom Registration Fields" make sure you have the custom field number turned on for the number you noted in #1.

thanks for this great hack

Can anyone figure out how to make the Country flag a required registration field and make it stick when you edit your profile? I would be most appreciated!

nice hack
my members love it

I don't know why but it say to me

You do not have permission to access this area.
» Use your browser's back button to return.

If I chose Flags Settings or Manage Flags from the control panel

Any one can help with this problem????

By the way i useing 6.04f

Alright Alright...
Everyone who was having the problem with the Flags Manager.. Here is instructions!

1. Get Flags Hack installed.
2. Go to Control Panel
3. Go to Primary Settings >> Flag Settings
4. Enter the path to your flag directory(if you do not know it contact your ISP or give me ftp access so I can find out).
5. You can not use your Flag Manager.


I hope to work on this hack some and get it ready for the finished forum.

Known Issues:
*Have to re-select flag in profile.*

why is the download in the beginning offline
i really would like 2 download this mod. anyway
can someone mail it 2 [email protected]

that would also be very cool

Does anybody have a copy of the Country Hack zip file that I can d/l or that they can e-mail me? It would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I think I have it. Lemme find it and I'll upload it for you.

yes, where can we get it.. i noticed that the files from the 411 site are all bad

Hi,

can anyone send me this hack, because the downloadlink doesn't work!

Or is there an other link???

d-talk

The link is gone, I don't think I have this hack on my comp...

I'm running 6.1, and was told this hack would work, so I added in everything, but came across a problem.. CP.CGI will not load for me, when I enter the code, per the readme...

FIND:

} #end set_cats

AFTER PUT:

if (($ubb eq 'vars_flags') && ($status eq 'Administrator')) {
require "$vars_config{CGIPath}/flags_control.pl";
&FlagsSettings; exit;
} #end vars_flags

if (($ubb eq 'set_vars_flags') && ($status eq 'Administrator')) {
require "$vars_config{CGIPath}/flags_control.pl";
&SetFlagsSettings; exit;
} #end set_vars_flags

if (($ubb eq 'manage_flag') && ($status eq 'Administrator')) {
require "$vars_config{CGIPath}/flags_control.pl";
&FlagManage; exit;
} #end manage_flag

if (($ubb eq 'do_m_flag') && ($status eq 'Administrator')) {
require "$vars_config{CGIPath}/flags_control.pl";
&DoFlagManage; exit;
} #end do_m_flag

if (($ubb eq 'do_upload_flag') && ($status eq 'Administrator')) {
require "$vars_config{CGIPath}/flags_control.pl";
&UploadFlag; exit;
} #end do_upload_flag

Yet if I take that out, the control panel will load for me.. And I can see the other entries, under the control panel for the flags and what not, but of course, can't get access to those sections.. Does anyone know if it's the code, me, or what could be done to get this to work? I can't figure out what is wrong here, plus I'd love to use this hack on my board... Any help?

The link is dead

And I'm actually using a 6.1 board, does it work on it

yup! The other UBB board I work on has it an thats 6.1!
I lost the zip file though cuz i want to install it on 6.2! (although it will need a slight modification for 6.2)
need the link someone!! PPLEEEASSE! theres a big kiss in it for ya!

I've found this link
http://neo-forums.netfirms.com/flagshack.zip

Does anybody have a copy of this?

Thank you

I've got modifications all the way back to 5.46 on this computer (lots more on another, but I gotta go to my dad's business to check it out ) but I don't have this one.... I'll look on the other pv next time I'm there tho, maybe a miracle will happen
