[6.2x] Modification Wordlets

Hi folks,

Modification Wordlets has been ported to UBB 6.2.x. Available for download @ http://www.qasic.net

qasic

Thank you sooo much ive been waiting for this. Will try when i get home

What's the difference between this and the one everybody is using now?

~Jon

well the one everyone is using now was most likely the 6.1x version modified to work. So peple figured it would be best to have someone update it for the n00bs (like me and others) and here we are

ive put the file in the cgi bin and chmod to 777 and this is what i get

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request

yet the board and everything else work great. Any ideas?

Did you follow install instructions?

I believe you have edit a few files(i.e. ulimatebb.cgi, vars_wordlets.cgi some other files)

Check to make sure you did everything.

bleh forgot to look at that. I'll try that later and do it manually.

lol looks like that's solved.

I have a clean install of 6.2.1 (not in my sig). I have updated the ultimatebb.cgi cp.cgi cp_common.pl and created and uploaded the vars_wordlets_mods.cgi. I have chmod as appropriate.

Whenever I run this, I get:

quote:
ERROR: /www/orn/cgi-bin (UBB CGI directory) is write protected. Please CHMOD this directory to 777 or give the IUSR_INET account on WinNT/2K Change access to this directory!

It is not the permissions!

I am running Red Hat 7.1 and Apache if it matters. Perl is V5+something.

Help?

Ok, I have a Modifications Wordlets selection in my Wordlets tab in the Control Panel. It has a text-entry-looking box above the mod_wordlets with the text set_wordlets.

What does this mean?

I have already selected Update Modification Wordlets.

Just a note folks that the auto install file (the ultimatebb_mod_wordlets_install.cgi file) is NOT SUPPORTED. You use it at your own risk.

qasic

oh thats why it wouldnt work

thx for telling me hehe

umm i have a question

quote:
################
cp.cgi
################

# find:

wordlets_date wordlets_pntf

# replace with:

wordlets_date wordlets_pntf wordlets_mods

I cant find wordlets_date wordlets_pntf is it a typo? or is something messed up for me lol
i can find wordlets_date but no wordlets_pntf

Well lemme know plz

you should find it in this line.

Code

[/code]change it so it looks like this.

[code]

quote:
# grab other required files
foreach my $file (qw(display misc email time search pm registration pntf poll template_match wordlets wordlets_cp wordlets_err wordlets_img wordlets_date wordlets_mods)) {

I just added wordlets_mods to then end and i got that. If that correct because that is the only line i see like that.

That would do the trick. Are you sure you're using a UBB 6.2.x? 6.2.x would have the pntf thingee.

qasic

Is this still a beta mod? It appears complete to me.

The hack is stable. I haven't done a thorough code review of it thus it hasn't reach a 'COMPLETE' status yet.

qasic

When I go to my CP and try to view the Mod Wordlests it says Action Not Promited :S how do If fix that?

Nohtermind I just rehacked the CP_Wordlests and everything was A=O-K Thanks Anyways Peps!

Qasic,
I need help! I used your auto-install and pretty much everything works great...HOWEVER

When I install other hacks that require vars_wordlets_mods to be added, it doesn't "see" the new wordlets and it seems to break the ability of ubb to use vars_wordlets_mods.

Do you have any suggestions? I keep thinking it's the hack code that isn't complete. (Like I should be adding something to another file to prompt vars_wordlets_mods to update)

My understanding is that since I've installed your original vars_wordlets_mods thingee, I should be able to upload a new vars_wordlets_mods file and the cp should then allow me to update the wordlets within that modified file. It works for some hacks, yet not for others. I've successfully installed the statistics, authority & hit hacks that require vars_wordlets_mods to be updated. Yet struggling with others....because vars_wordlets_mods won't update through the control panel.

Thanks ahead of time!

Helen

Hi, Helen

When certain hacks require Modification Wordlets, they usually ask you to add certain wordets to vars_wordlets_mods.cgi. You can't add them via cp.cgi. You need to modify vars_wordlets_mods.cgi directly, save it, and then re-upload. Then your wordlets will appear.

qasic

Qasic,
I do exactly that...but, it doesn't update the wordlets. (yes I clear the cache)
http://www.dimhorizon.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi

Same problem as Josh... no pntf... the line ends with wordlets_date... so I just added the wordlets_mods to the end. And yes, I have UBB 6.2.0.

I don't know if that is what is causing my problem or not... I keep getting a Syntax error on line 43 near %; of my cp_wordlets.cgi ... I've checked it all and matched it against the instructions... cleared... rehacked TWICE... any advice on this?

I don't see a problem any more. Can you be more specific?

Rehack again after taking a break. I'm pretty sure the instructions are correct

You may want to post the code around the error to see if I may see the problem.

qasic

I took a break as you recommended... and now I feel like a blond... and I SWEAR I'm not!... I had downloaded the wrong file from your link, qasic... got the right one now... trying it out... will let you know how it turns out... can we say... DUH!!!...

It WORKED!!...

*edit*... I just figured out what happened... I was trying to install the Thinking Clock... in that file is a link to download the Mods Wordlets hack... THAT link is the wrong one... may need to update that link to the correct version of Mods Wordlets for 6.2.0

You may want to inform the author of the Thinking Clock hack to update the URL then
