When i click on "Sort Custom Titles", I got this error message: You do not have permission to access this area. /homepages/38/d19856222/htdocs/map-central/cgi-bin/ubb-cgi/cp.cgi, 853 » Use your browser's back button to return.

HFPhoenix,
I suspect you didn't upload the new template that comes with this hack. The sort is now done automatically and you shouldn't see that option at all. Re-upload cp_manage_custom_status.pl to your Templates directory and please report back.

Well, i got the newest version of this hack, deleted the old template files from my webserver and re-upload the new ones. But there is no change. The "Sort Custom Titles" Link is still availble. And the error messages are the same too as before

Okay. Time for further debugging.
1) What's the URL to your UBB so I may check out the problem (your profile eventually links to a vB).
2) What is the e-mail you used to register @ Qasic.NET? (PM me with this privately if you don't want it to be known to th public).

Hi,
It looks as if I'll need to examine your board privately to fix this. Can I get the FTP info to your board and an administrator's account there? You can either PM me or e-mail me the info. Thanks.

Problem solved (wrong files in the ZIP were the cause). Problem 1: This message will be gone by the time UBB 6.1 final rows around (it's debugging code put in by Infopop). It has no effect on the actual hack. Problem 2: Wrong template in the ZIP was the cause. ZIP files now have been uploaded. Thanks to Phoenix to letting me snoop around his FTP to find these problems and allow me to solve them. qasic

Hey qasic, I have a problem with Custom Status.
I am using it in UBB 6.1 PB 1.4 and when I activate it, it doesn't allow anyone to view topics, topics get forever to load and they finally return a server error.
I hacked it correctly, I have experienced this problem with 2 different UBBs.

Hypersonic, I suspect you installed this hack incorrectly. Not hacking this hack correctly can lead to very, very bad effects (i.e., infinite loops).

Yeah, it is quite weird, but it isn't the first time this happen to me, as I said before, it happened in two different UBBs (both were PB1.4). In the first one, it just got corrupted some day but this time it caused troubles since I installed it.

I will try installing it once again, but I am quite sure that I installed it correctly.
Could there be a conflict with the other hacks?

This hacks requires me to modify 4 files:
ubb_lib_posting.cgi cp.cgi cp_common.pl public_topic_page.pl
The problem should be in the first one because the control panel hacking shouldn't cause troubles into the topics and the public topic page is just a matter of adding an extra line.
As soon as I add the modified ubb_lib_posting and clear cache, most of my topics stop working. And then I am required to upload a clean ubb lib posting from the UBB zip to get everything to work again.
I know it is a quite weird problem but I am pretty sure that you are right about the infinite loop because when you click in any topic, it just stays like if it were loading and after a long time, it returns a server error.

Qasic- I had the same situation as hypersonic- I managed to isolate it down to if I had more than 9 custom names for users it locked up during thread views (18% cpu utilization for one call on a thread- and I am the sole user of a 1Ghz T-bird)... I'm going to redownload your update- double check my coding and see if the situation resolves itself... I'll get back to you asap...

Please do let me know how it goes. That custom names part was a coding error .. I attempted to optimize the code by removing too brackets thinking Perl's precedence operators would be from left to right but it looks as if some versions of Perl have direct algebraic logic so I put back those two brackets and everything should be fine now qasic

I just overwrote the core files included- and it eliminated the situation- I have some 37 titles in there and it works perfectly so far-- I still have that odd error at the FYI screen where it forwards (/home/user.../cp_custom_status.cgi, 172) , but never states what the error actually is- it isn't buried in a table on that screen or in a matching font color is it? Anyway-- on the mark of it stalling threads out-- you nailed that one without hassle...

Actually that means it worked just fine This FYI is the window when it successes, and it tells you the path because that's how this window works on beta versions of UBB (to debug)

wahooo.. I knew the FYI was the forwarding window- I didn't realize it was pulling variables as a standard thing... Everything works flawlessly on this end so far then...

Hey Qasic, I keep having a problem with the zip file itself. I download it, and try to unzip it, but it says there is 1 byte missing. Not sure if you could fix this, or what, but I thought you would like to know.

Qasic, great hack...AGAIN! I am, however having a small problem.
I had another custom rank hack installed, and removed it completely, so I don't think this would be the problem.
Moderators and Admins aren't showing up with ANY ranks. Not even the custom ones I set them as.
Thoughts?

I take that back. The only ones that ARE working for the admins and mods, are the admin/mods override titles. The standard ones are NOT working. Neither are the custom user titles. Could this be something to do with the admin/mod overrides? Even though their blank could they be overriding the others?

I think your ubb_lib_posting.cgi is casuing errors, as well public_topic_page.pl was not hacked correctly too I think.

I'm having problems with members showing their titles. It will only show their standard titles. Maybe something with ubb_lib.cgi?

I rehacked ubb_lib_posting many times. I had the option set to custom titles only, when i got these errors. But when i set it too both(though i wasn't using the ranks), it worked. I don't know why though...

Either one you have not put in the correct paths or two you have not copies c*.cgi from the ZIP file to the place you want to store the custom status.

Muc I think you are in the wrong topic anyway, you could alway add a simple upload.cgi script that alway write usernuber.gif/jpeg would do the trick ans you would only have to edit wordlets
Do you believe in love at first sight, or should I walk by again?

Muc, use the Avatar mod, except do not install the mod on the CP where it puts in the Avatar menu.
I have it installed on a board I use. I just removed the CP part and they enter their image. It has to be hosted on the internet somewhere, but it does work.

As for the missing code, I created a .cgi program that will install it.
Unsure of the rules here for posting, but since qasic said it was OK I will once my servers come back up.

I got your email but I thought you were talking about another thing as you actually did In your version users can provide their own image by uploading it anywhere in the internet and then filling the location into the input area, but I was seeking for a mod which allows uploading a image into a special directory on my own server... argh, anyone knows how to ?

Just in case someone else wants it. This will use custom field 3 to allow a user enter their image and show on their profile. The image just has to be one the net somewhere. **** Important notice, if the server they host the picture is slow it can impact your server response time when view that persons post. Well here it is. public_display_name.pl Find $user_profile[18]
Replace with
public_topic_page.pl Find sub topic_row { if ($alt_color eq "$vars_style{AltColumnColor1}") { $alt_color = "$vars_style{AltColumnColor2}"; } else { $alt_color = "$vars_style{AltColumnColor1}"; } Add after { if (length($user_profile[18]) < 8) { $avatar = " "; } else { $avatar = " "; } } # Avatar Routine (Thanks to CC & Curioso) Find
Add after
$avatar
Hope this helps.

Well you could open 1 directory and allow anyone to ftp a file to it.
Of course that is a major security problem if someone uploads a virus.

I redownloaded the hack from qasic.net but the changes weren't made to the readme yet, so the profile still doesn't show custom ranks/status, even if I use your addition you posted in another thread.

It is working fine on 6.0.1.2 see my site . And to be honest, this is my first time at using any hacks. What problems are you getting?

An error has occured:
Label not found for "next THISPARTICULARLINEHide" at /web/sites/255/dreamcastdude/www.dcdojo.f2s.com/cgi-bin/ubb_lib_posting.cgi line 3.
Please inform the board administration of this error so that they may fix the problem. Thank you!
I get that when I go to my updated profile, do you know which file I messed up on?

Their seems to be a missprint in the Installation text file for UBB v6.1.0.3 For ubb_lib_posting.cgi: Text file says: FIND: # get custom title if (!$user_profile[31]) { $user_status = &CustomTitle($user_profile[8]); } else { $user_status = $user_profile[31]; } FIND: # if moderator- only list as mod if actually a mod in this forum if (($user_status eq "$vars_misc{ModeratorTitle}") && $Moderator) { if ($Moderator =~ /$this_user_number/) { $user_status = "$vars_misc{ModeratorTitle}"; } else { $user_status = "$vars_misc{MemberTitle}"; } } elsif(($user_status eq "$vars_misc{ModeratorTitle}") && !$Moderator) { $user_status = "$vars_misc{MemberTitle}"; } # end mod check In 6.1.0.3: # get custom title if (!$user_profile[31]) { $user_status = &CustomTitle($user_profile[8]); # if moderator- only list as mod if actually a mod in this forum if ($user_profile[8] eq "Moderator") { if ($Moderator && ($Moderator =~ /$this_user_number/)) { $user_status = "$vars_misc{ModeratorTitle}"; } else { $user_status = "$vars_misc{MemberTitle}"; } # end if } # end mod check } else { $user_status = $user_profile[31]; } # end if $u = $this_user_number + 0; # rid extra zeros from member no. $member_number = "$vars_wordlets{user_number_abbrev} $u"; unless (exists($rate_list{$u})) { ($overall_rating, $total_votes) = &get_rating($u); $rate_list{$u} = $overall_rating; } Looks like the install txt needs to be updated.

I figured it out. FIND: # get custom title if (!$user_profile[31]) { $user_status = &CustomTitle($user_profile[8]); # if moderator- only list as mod if actually a mod in this forum if ($user_profile[8] eq "Moderator") { if ($Moderator && ($Moderator =~ /$this_user_number/)) { $user_status = "$vars_misc{ModeratorTitle}"; } else { $user_status = "$vars_misc{MemberTitle}"; } # end if } # end mod check } else { $user_status = $user_profile[31]; } # end if $u = $this_user_number + 0; # rid extra zeros from member no. $member_number = "$vars_wordlets{user_number_abbrev} $u"; unless (exists($rate_list{$u})) { ($overall_rating, $total_votes) = &get_rating($u); $rate_list{$u} = $overall_rating; } REPLACE: # get custom title &RequireCode("$vars_config{CGIPath}/ubb_custom_status.cgi"); $user_status = &GetCustomRank($user_profile[7], $user_profile[8]); $custom_status = &GetCustomTitle($this_user_number); THEN ADD BELOW: # if moderator- only list as mod if actually a mod in this forum if (($user_profile[8] eq "Moderator") && $Moderator) { if ($Moderator =~ /$this_user_number/) { #$user_status = "$vars_misc{ModeratorTitle}"; } else { $user_status = &GetStandardRank($user_profile[7], $user_profile[8]); } } elsif(($user_profile[8] eq "Moderator") && !$Moderator) { $user_status = &GetStandardRank($user_profile[7], $user_profile[8]); } # end mod check # check to see if custom rank is overriden $user_status = &GetOverrideRank($user_status, $u, $user_profile[7]); I tried it on v.6.1.0.3. It works fine with no problems.

qasic Not sure this is a bug, but one of my members is having problems with my board regarding the rank hack. I gave her a custom rank and avator image. Problem is it does not show up for her account. Instead she gets the rank and avator icon for her post level, but here is the weird part. Anyone who posts above or below her reply gets her rank name & icon. I tried clearing cache, checked all hacked files, etc. Nothing changed. No script error messages are showing either. At a last effert, I had her start a new account and switch her rank level to that membership. Still same problem. It's like the poor girl been cursed. LOL Nobody is reporting this problem except her. Do you have any idea what can cause this? Anything will be helpfull. I'm out of ideas as it is.

excuse to inconvenience, but you would know how to tell me that happens, therefore I have this hack installed correctly at my forum, and I placed the stars of the hack " Stars/Status v6.0 for UBB6.1 " that happens that the stars the times not work other times. or be they are sometimes normal other times a moderator that was for being with a moderator star in it marries it is him with one of beginner and and so on. Please help me.

I am seeing a little bug as well, it seems to work fine except it doesn't print the rank/etc in the first post in a thread.. all other posts in that thread are properly ranked, including the member who started the thread, just not the first post. This is in 6.1.0.3

I noticed it too. When I add ranks for members in Custom Ranks Override, it fixes that and the icons links show. But it causes another bug. Anyone with the custom rank, shows the regular Custom Rank list instead and anyone that posted above or below them gets their rank stats. Weird bug.

AllenAyres, I did what you posted. But the avatars and ranks for my moderators are not showing at all. Only their rank text title.
Can you think of anything to fix that?

Yes i did Term,
see i have a test forum, i put the hack on it first, then if it works, i move it to my real one, on my test one, i am able to enter these things on CP, but when i moved the files over, it will not let me do things with it in CP.
Everything is the same, so i am confused..

Is there going to be a version of this hack where you can assign custom ranks and statuses to MegaMods..? Looks as though it can be done, but I don't know how..

I have a question -- is this hack the one that puts verbiage like Member under the names & the stars -- or is it one that is based on "rating" users?
Thanks for the clarification.

Try pressing 'Refresh'. It should be in the Primary Settings tab to set up the vars option (the thing you need to validate the hack basically otherwise the UBB won't work). Then once you have done that, there should be another option in the Maintenance tab to configure your ranks. Good luck . [ 12-14-2001 01:19 PM: Message edited by: Oblivion Knight ]

I had tried the refresh button. I cant find anything under the primary settings to change. Nothing appears in maintanance to do the ranks either. Once the files were uploaded I did not see any change or crashes or problems of any kind. It kinda felt like I hadn't done anything. All the permisions seem ok as well. The cp.cgi works fine but I will check the locations of the files I uploaded. Any other ideas ? Succorso

When I installed this, I got a weird error. Everything seemedto be "delayed" one post. The first person wouldn't have a title. The second would, but it would be the title that the first person was supposed to have, and so on...

I've installed hack v1.1 pb on my ubb 6.1.0.3 (of course with correction to the installation instruction from this thread). "Custom Titles" works just fine but "Custom Ranks" are not shown. Look like others have same problem. Did someone succeed?

I've been getting alot of IM's lately on AIM asking how did I get the custom ranks working on my board. Well here's a fix for you people running 6.1.0.3 that I found to work better and my board runs perfectly. You can view it at http://www.ultanime.net/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi Anyways here's the link to the fix I did. http://www.ultanime.net/temp/ubb/custom_fix_v6103.txt Hope this helps people with 6.1.0.3.

That solves the problem for the moderators not showing their rank, but it starts the same problem again for the members with custom ranks.

Ok after a little tweeking and beta testing, I think I may have solved the problem. The second part of the script is in the wrong location since 6.1.0.3 rewriten it to another location. That is what is causing these minor errors. It's now working on my board, but I wanna see if it works for you guys as well. This should fix and make both the moderator and member custom status work together and make them stop screwing with each other LOL. Here is my installing for ubb_lib_posting.cgi Custom Status Fix for ubb_lib_posting.cgi NOTE: This fix is for v6.1.0.3 only. Other versions do so at your own risk.

Ah, now I get it. In UBB 6.1.0.3 they threw in some extra code in the middle of the first block we had to find in ubb_lib_posting.cgi! Thanks a lot M_E_W and Terminator_X. It works perfectly at my board now.

Thanks guys. Hack works fine now. But I have another stupid question. Is it possible to get rid of "Member #xx" line while using Custom Ranks and Titles? Well, as far as I understand it's possible with simple commenting out [code][/code] But I'm not a hacker so I'm wondering is it safe?

Just remove $member_number from public_topic_page.pl
You will probably want to remove the BR tag under it as well to eliminate the extra gap.

Use Stars/Status 6.0 hack if you want stars and more custom titles/ranks.

I am NOT using 6.1.0.3 But the ranks for Admins and Mods don't get displayed. Normal users do get the correct rank. I don't have any settings listed for the Custom Admin/Mod Rank Database or the Override Rank Database.Only for the Custom Rank Database. So something keeping the ranks away from me and my mods ) I didn't think I could use te updated code for 6.1.0.3 cause it looks so different. Any idea's? (or perhaps a modified update like the one for 6.1.0.3?) btw I am using 6.1.0.1 pb 1.4 (can't update yet)

Did you delete the part in ubb_lib_posting.cgi that only lists the Status as a Mod if they are a mod in that forum?

No I didn't.
Does that affect the rankings? I thought that part would only control the status of the mod.
But the mod isn't the only one, admins don't get ranked either. Perhaps the code only allows rankings for those in the corresponding fields. That would mean that the selection between the "standard" and "Custom Admin/Mod Rank Database" isn't configured properly.
So even when the Custom Admin/Mod Rank Database fields are empty it still uses those for the ranks for admins and mods.
or the validation for those fields is not good and it thinks they are configured.

Before that line you should have a &RequireCode("$vars_config{CGIPath}/ubb_custom_status.cgi");

You need that code, it's not part of the mod check. It goes under where the mod check code used to be...

Hagar,
1) This hack requires UBB 6.1.0.3 release to work. 2) I've upped a new ZIP file to my site which should be compatible with 6.1.0.3 without MEW's modificaitons.
LMK if you have problems.

Ahh OK. And Hagar, are you sure you added the code I posted where the mod check code used to be? I'm sure it matters where it's placed. (Not that sure..)

DJSpellBound,
Have you tried re-hacking ubb_lib_posting.cgi with the new readme.txt instructions?

umm, I have a different problem. Custom Status/Rank Variable Settings wont save the settings. I've reuploaded the file several times and CHMOD it right, but it wont save! Thus it wont show up the titles for users when they post.

So if I'm guessing correctly .. you go to manage your custom status, you enter in some titles, and then you press save. No errors occur when you save. When you go back to manage them, the titles you had saved previously don't appear. Is this correct? If so, give me the full server path to cstatus.cgi and crank.cgi.

I go to Primary Settings >> Custom Rank/Title Settings. There I set up the file paths and all the other fields and click Save Variables. Then I go back to see if it saved but it doesnt save. When I go to Manage Ranks/Titles, I set the ranks and it saves, but they dont show up when people post. URL: http://forum.invoid.net/cgi-bin/crank.cgi and the other one is in the same dir

Hi v0id,
I've fixed up Jimbo on your site. There were two problems:
1) Your cp_custom_status.cgi was v0.0004. UBB 6.1.0.3 requires a cp_custom_status.cgi which is v1.1.
2) You had the star hack installed. I've commented it out inside public_topic_page.pl since that functionality can be incorporated directly into Jimbo's hack.
With the upcoming release of WOL into 6.2, I'm gradually dropping my support for WOL. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Well the hack I did myself for ubb_lib_posting.cgi works fine for me. I never had any problems all this time. I do use v6.1.0.3. I doubt it works for older 6.1x versions.

Hi all,
Has anyone successfully got stars running with Jimbos? I have Jimbos up and running and its awsome (Thanks!) but I really want to get stars of some form incorporated so as ppl get to new levels they also increase their stars.
If anyone has had success, please let me know maybe how?
Thanks for any input
Rainner

Sure no problem. Let me give you a sample example. Let's say your current rank set is the following: 0|!!|Newbie 10|!!|Level 1 20|!!|Level 2 30|!!|Level 3 For newbies, let's give them 0 stars, level 1 - 1 start, level 2 - 2 stars, etc. Since we can use HTML inside the rank names (Newbie, Level 1, Level 2, Level 3), let's just put somg tags 0|!!|Newbie 10|!!|Level 1 20|!!|Level 2 30|!!|Level 3 (of course Level 2 could have a rank statement like this: 20|!!|Level 2
as well) With the above rank set, you've achieved what the stars hack as done! Questions? qaisc

I'm having problems with this hack. I installed it using the multihack and everything went fine, uploaded the files cmod them and then set it up with my own ranking system. Once i cleared the cache and checked the board all the previous ranks (set by ubb) had gone and there was nothing in its place . Can anyone help? my boards 6.1.0.3 and the other hacks i've installed are Preview post, Signature hack, Smiliemod and Stats hack.

I believe you can use this version on 6.2 without any problems. I haven't tried this out myself though (I'll try to do that this Saturday).

Hi... I´m trying to get my moderators to show up in every forum...
I installed this hack with the jimbo install file.
******* open ubb_lib_postings.cgi and find :
$user_status = &GetStandardRank($user_profile[7], $user_profile[8]) unless ($vars_custom_status{status} eq "titles") || ($vars_custom_status{status} eq "off");
I cant find those lines, but I find these instead
$user_status = &GetStandardRank($user_profile[7], $user_profile[8]); } # end if ************
thats the only line starting with $user_status = &GetStandardRank($user_profile[7
I´m running version 6.1.0.3

Hey, I'm running UBB 6.1.0.3 and I'm having a problem that didn't exist when I used your hack for UBB6x. Whenever I try to get into the two Control Panel sections it says that I do not have permission to access those areas. What's wrong?

Rodney, (I think) you should add this GetStatusRank thing, not find it. Sax, rehack cp.cgi.

Is their going to be a release to support v6.2.0? I tried using the v6.1.x version, but too many lines are changed in the new v6.2.0.

I've tried a few times to install this hack, and every time I've got an error message saying 'internal server error' when I try to open the control panel. I've checked and it's seems to be something to do with the modified version of cp.cgi, but I don't know why it does this. Any ideas whats wrong? I followed the instructions as closely as I could.

OK, Seems that the specific UBB that I use required some changes. The changes were placed in a file NOT POSTED... everyone commented on em, but they never got actually POSTED here. Now the user in question has moved on (and away from UBB) so the "fix" is gone
