Hi joking down, I was totally impressed by the way you solved the search engine problem...sounds like you really know your stuff. There is one more hack that I think is great, but has always been left out of the database, because it doesnt work exactly...its the Interest Indicator Icon Hack. Its a great idea...every time you post in a thread, a small dot appears in a folder icon in the form listing, which really helps you track on what threads u have posted in. Although it seems to work after you have hacked it - the cookies never quite work out again, as you constanly have "new threads" in the forum listings. Its a pity....maybe you could have a look at the code? Its not in the database as I have said, but i have got a copy of it - InterestIndicator.zip Or if anyone else could have a go at it......

Just replace the parenthesis with another character, and simply state that chatacter X should really be Character Z, in the code below.

Nope, Im afraid it does not work at all, its back to the problem I had before...and this time the Indicators dont even show up (as you can see from the pic above, I have posted in some of those threads, and some should have "closedib.gif"). Grrr, this hack is such a bugger! Any ideas whats happening wrong now joking-down?

in PrefsSubmit the cookie is set without the domain and the variable for profilenumber is wrong (the HTML-Code show: [/code]...
if modifybio the cookie is set without the domain. the ProfileNumber is not set there.
why the ProfileNumber is not saved on post i don't know... <img src="confused.gif" border="0" alt="" />
can you add in forumdisplay before the line </pre></div></div><br>[code] now you can see the data of the cookie "ProfileNumber"...

when you save your profile (search for Member Profile Modification Confirmation in ubbmisc.cgi) there is no domain in the cookie. you don't save the profilenumber in the cookie there.

Ok, you still deserve a raise, award and a brandnew sportscar. However, I also get a 500-error when using your modifications in forumdisplay.cgi
I'm checking them out now...

Hi CT. Your code is worong somewhere (obviously ) so the hack you polaced, has got a type error. Theres no 2 ways about it. JD helps me out, I gave him the files, and I had made an error somewhere....now my indicator works Its a good hack.....JD might be a bit too busy now though.....I could send you my files, although you couldnt use them, you could isolate the hacks and see where u are going wrong....
