Hey,

I'm at my wits end here. I've been trying to get this to work for about 6 hours. I've combed through all the included files, and I still can't figure out what's wrong.

I enter the Control panel, select "Advanced UBBNews" and I get this error message:

Quote
code:
Code
Undefined subroutine &main::view_newssessions called at D:Inetpubwwwrootdevcgi-bincp.cgi line 480.
Line 480 in my cp.cgi =
code:
[qb]
Code
if (($ubb eq 'view_newssessions') && ($status eq 'Administrator')) {
	&RequireCode("$vars_config{CGIPath}/cp_ubbnews.cgi");
	&view_newssessions;
	exit(0);
}
[/qb]
Well, actually, that's lines 478-482

I've compared this block of code with several other blocks in the cp.cgi, also tracing back to the file called in &RequireCode statement. Everything looks right, just can't seem to all the subroutines from cp_ubbnews.cgi.

Oh, I'm on 6.3.0.1 with a bunch of mods - stats, chat, PM inbox, calendar, etc.

Make sure you uploaded cp_ubbnews.cgi, CHMODded 755, etc.

Oh shoot...

I was about to go off on a nasty spurt about seeing CHMOD in the code. Since I'm using IIS 5.0 on a W2k box.

But then I thought, hmmm... maybe I should check my file permissions.

Got it working.

Thanks LK.

Just in case anyone else is like me and not strong on php, the code above - when copied directly off the page - causes the opening php tag to run into the function call

Quote
code:
Code
 <?phpprint
just separate them
code:
[qb]
Code
 <?php print
[/qb]
and it works a charm.

Thanks guys wink

I'm depriving a village somewhere of an idiot.

Hmm...I'm testing this hack for a new site my team and I are building and so far I like what I see. I understand this is "Unmaintained" but I was wondering if anyone can resolve this problem I'm facing.

If I'm correct, UBBNews will grab the topic date/time when it's first posted, NOT by the replies. If so, I would assume that the posts would be listed in chronological order (e.g., 1/3/02, 1/2/02, 1/1/02). I listed the dates in descending order. Well on forums with replies it randomly selects the date/times of the posts.

Example:

Notice the dates...It's just in random fashion. It didn't reflect the new threads created in Oct nor list them by the dates they were posted. Any help will be much appreciated. Thks!

Is anyone still following this thread?
If so I just have one small problem with the
hack and was wondering if anyone has seen it before?

For some reason the Link for the Topic doesn't get set, it sets the link on the posters name just fine, it just doesn't link to the topic in the forum

Here is the test page
http://www.alienarmada.com/ubbnewstest.shtml

Thanks for any help!

Mike

ubbnews.cgi: Use of uninitialized value at ubbnews.cgi line 77.
that line is:

[/code]and this error:
  <blockquote><font class="small">quote:

Any idea for how to get rid of these errors?

I'm having an issue and I'm unsure if it's because it's intended to work the way it is or not.

I want to pull news from two forums which I can do simple enough. I simple edit the UBB News template and enter the forum numbers separated by a space like it says.

However, I find that it doesn't pull the posts based on chronological order. Instead it posts them from one forum first, then the next forum next.

Is this intended? Is there a way to make it so that it pulls posts based on the date instead?
