UBB.Developers Forums UBB.classic V6 MultiHack Mods [6.0x] Smilie Mod v1.1 (final release for 6.0 boards) [ Finished ]

Yep done that ive installed tons of hacks before and not had problems like this, believe me ive checked and checked, everthing is spot on.

Well if everything is in place then it should be working and you shouldn't have any problems *heh*. There must be somthing you missed or somthing. BTW your using 6.01 right? Or if not what version?

*EDIT*
One other thing did you remember to do the things from both
mod_wordlet_install.txt
&
smilemod_install.txt?

There is a bug with in the "Instant Graemlins", it's 15x15 even though it's actually 15x22pixels.

LK.

Edit: I found out how to fix it (in templatespublic_common.pl).

M_E_W Yeh i did everything in both instuctions..

for some reason it is not adding it to the Instant Graemlin list , but everything else is working fine

Well then I don't know what to say, you must've did something wrong in the instructions. Another thing you might've done wrong is when you are searching for a certain part of a code somtimes there are more than one that are the same so you have to make sure you get it under the right one. BTW as long as you are having no other problems besides smiles maybe just wait till v0.4 comes out which should be soon I'm guessing and maybe that will fix your problem you are having.

Sorry I couldn't help you get everything working .

Did you remember to follow both of the instruction files and not just one?

yes, i did all of it

Did you remember to chmod all the files right?

Also the smilies should be in a directory called 'smilies' in your noncgi directory.


Ie: http://site.com/noncgi/smilies/smile.gif

Have a url so I can see your board and a guest account?

Just so you know, the caret symbol will not work for smilies (ie. something like ^_^ or ~_^ won't work).

Question: Do you have any plans on releasing a smilie legend? If not, I believe I'll begin to write my own which I may or may not release here.

a legend will be in the popup which will be released in v0.4 either tonight or tomorrow.

I am on an NT server i cannot chmod it here is the url http://www.m2sc.com/cgi-bin/rubb601/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi

telling me as administrator i dont have the rights to access it in the cp?

it does not appear that you have the mod entirely installed on your ubb. on the post topic page the smilies are not how the mod is done. looks like you missed a step or two.

yeah my fault
got it now thanks

what steps might i have missed, but i just went and checked and i added everything to it

working now I feel stupid i uploaded the backup file instaed of the hacked one :rolleyes:

Thanks DPK it was the smiles directory not created, why didnt anyone else state that. huh.
Im pretting sure theres no mension of it in the instructions, but im really tierd and overworked lately, so i could have missed it, thanks DPK, and you've done a grand job, welldone!!!!

qasic: mind if i add this into the hack? i'll credit you. nice work too btw.


[ March 24, 2001: Message edited by: DPK ]

Hey why not

That's what I like about UBBDev ... open community.

q

P.S. I've updated the instructions so that they'll be correct. smilielist.cgi now has an exit at the end to comply with SafePerl.

[ March 24, 2001: Message edited by: qasic ]

Could this be taken a step farther? Could it scan the directory for all gifs and then create a new field for them so they can be named?

That would make adding smilies trivial.

Amy

I cant see the smilie thing under Primary settings

Nevermiend I fixed it

Works perfectly with UBB v6.01 - thanks ... one of the mods I've been waiting for.

this mod works great. it's really saved me allot of time having to edit the files etc... great job, keep it up

New Version Released. See top of thread.

Small bug in the zip fixed. Since I dont think anyone has downloaded the new version yet, it doesnt matter.

P.S. DPK, Smilie Mod v0.4 working fine on my test board!

[ March 25, 2001: Message edited by: qasic ]

thanx qasic

The upgrade for this hack works great DPK! I haven't found any bugs yet with the hack, but if I find any I'll post them right away. Keep up the good work ^^;.

~ M_E_W

New version released. See top of thread.

DPK, after upgrading non stop from your versions, at v.05 I have come upon this error, even though I went back and triple checked what I did:
Software error:
Execution of ultimatebb.cgi aborted due to compilation errors.
For help, please send mail to the webmaster (Your Webmaster), giving this error message and the time and date of the error.
http://esforum.cjb.net

Take a look at it... If you could

Hmm ... did you fix the require file to require "$vars_config{VariablesPath}/vars_wordlets_mods.cgi"; ?

q

P.S. v0.5 working fine on my own test board!

I have an error to report with 0.5. When you go to your wordlets then go to modifications wordlets it won't let me access it. Whats wrong?

Yeah, qasic, I did

Mew: Make sure your cp_common.pl menu is right. If you are linking to the old wordlet file, you will receive that error.


Everyone who is upgrading and installing v0.5 must do/read the instructions also in mod_wordlet_install.txt VERY carefully.

*fixed* I forgot a couple lines of code >_<.

Any more suggestions or ideas for this mod? I've about run out of them.

How about autodetect and install? A button that once clicked, scans the smilie directory, finds new smilies, and automatically creates records for them w/ a description of filename and mnemonic for them to be :filename: ??
