I just read a post concerning my site.

the correct link for my old site which has a ton of ubb intergration is

http://bartour.hypermart.net/

on the main page I call the following

• # members and posts
• featured member
• users random quote (profile field)
• ubb menu of forums
• active topics

other integration

multi search on homepage , can search whole, just db, just ubb or just memberlist

DiscussIt! Addon (never released because the code its nasty) if you look at my poll there is a DiscussIt! link that points to a forum thread. the subject of that thread is the poll question. the poll is in the thread so you can vote or see results while reading Thread is built automatically when i add a new poll

I also use discussit with Links and NewsPro. Every Listing in my links2 db has a discussit link.

I rewrote widgetz's review script for links2. now it uses ubb name and pass. reviews look like ubb including the users avatars and profile buttons.
see this example

I wound up starting over from scratch and never really finished building that site.


at my current ubb I'm working on a bunch of integration for the main site. (not built yet) have already redone most of the old stuff. plus some more

figured out how to use ubbfriend so I can use it on any page on the site.

figured out how to use who's online on every page on the site. (still testing, but shows user where every they are and a link to that page or thread)

I'm very busy building right now, so writing up more hacks isn't possible. I have a whole big site to rebuild and it takes a long time. epecially when I'm rewiting every mod I've made

Wanted to point it out as an example of what can be done.

And a damn fine example it is too.

Just a thought

Mutt -- Do you mind posting the code that you use to create the new message files for the UBB from another script?? I am guessing you create the files directly.

i build the new topic with a link. I'd like to build it automatically, but never tried.

when i add a poll it creates this link


most of that will make sence. the poll admin fill in the variables with poll info
$discussitnumber and $discussitname are variables i set for the number and coded name of the forum.

I've actually posted this before at scriptkeeper, somebody else posted it there before that.

let me try that againi build the new topic

Putting it in a URL works?? Hmmmm....I tried something similar to that to build it automatically i think. I ran a subroutine in newspro when ever a new topic was created. The topic stored the variables from news pro as the variables that the UBB needed, then I passed it to postings.cgi, but it did not work(because the UBB requires the referring address to be postings.cgi i believe.

I would show ya the code, but I can't seem to find the message that it was in(musta been deleted ...

You could remove the referrer resticting code, but that might be a bad thing. You could modifiy it to include the page you want to call it from.

Just a thought

Man, this looks good. Could you please post the code or send email it me at [email protected]. Thank you very much

Yo I nEEd that too

Please Join My UBB

I need the review script too!
Please, post the code if you can!

That code kicks *** . Please post the code.

I never really finished it. I'm redoing the site thought and that has to be done as well. might ditch widgetz's code all to gether thought. just make a ubb review for links out of my Discussit! mod. thats the plan anyway.

don't remove the posting restiction just change it. right now it restricts to your ubb cgi dir. i just changed it to my cgi dir. that way any script on my site is ok. originally changed it to my $MyHomePage but since that would include the upload dir, felt it could somehow be less secure.
