I bet it's a real good mod, but i have PunBB 1.0 RC2 and it won't install. "Wrong PunBB version" sad

Re: Extended Forum Access Mod 1.0 by Cactuz

But i wonder if could just take that warning away? Or has anything important been changed in my version?

I had to modify the mod itself to look for 1.0.1 instead of only 1.0 in the punbb, then follow the included instructions almost as normally. (some lines were a bit of)

But the creator of this mod might take a look at the "Show new posts since last visit" option on forum front, since it will show all posts, even "locked" ones, only showing topic and creator, but thats to much anyway.

Re: Extended Forum Access Mod 1.0 by Cactuz

I fixed it by just uppgrade to new version, then in the script i just added ".1" after 1.0 and it worked..

But not in the end though, 'cause i used different mods and they must have mixed together somewhere in the docs post.php, viewtopic.php or viewforum.php

sad

So at the moment i can't use this..

YES! I fixed it.. Cactuz homepage had a newer version up, that one worked !

Though if i'm not logged in and tries to go in in a locked forum i get "No authorization blbal" but i also get an error at the top..

I just changed the php-file to look for version 1.0.1 instead of 1.0 so it would create the mysql-tables.. Then it's just rock and roll!

Re: Extended Forum Access Mod 1.0 by Cactuz

Cactuz,
How I can add user to locked user, if in your readme.txt don't have instructions to edit profile.php or I missed something?

Also, readme.txt have errors:
#---------[ 18. FIND (line 319) ]---------------------------------------------
#---------[ 20. FIND (line 319) ]---------------------------------------------

find line 319 twice in same file!!! :shock:

I have the same trouble!

Warning: array_key_exists(): The second argument should be either an array or an object in [skiped]

I think it's due to locked users list is empty!?

Cactuz,
I get it from your link http://punbb.org/contrib/mods/EFAM-1.0.zip

Very good idea in mod, but  it's not work as it must work and I'm very sad about it sad

First time when I saw description of your mod I think "Thaks God and Cactuz! I found what I need for PunBB and I don't need to search for another forum" after download, I read instructions and start to upgrade forum, but in result I receive only wasting of time.

If you find time to make working version of your mod it'll be great!!!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Re: Extended Forum Access Mod 1.0 by Cactuz

I've made it working with 1.1 on PunBB++, haven't made a new mod because there has been some discussion on makeing some kind of new standard.

Any chance of releasing it for the few people that really want to test/ use it. I had a bet with a friend saying i could make a private forum. But so far i couldnt do it. So this could save me. wink
