Hello Mike,
I'm installing tutorials and need translate to my language - portuguesebr. Where I translate the link in navbar?
Translating php/lang don't change this link.
All the best

The nav bar text is stored in that lang_tutorials.php file, it's the text to the right of the line in that file that starts with this code:

'tutorials'

You're installing this on your Windows localhost? Make sure the permissions on the cache folder alllows Everyone to write to it.

[Dee]

Hi Mike

Yes Windows ... Security for cache and all folders and files under cache set to Full Control for Everyone ...

[Michael]

That's odd, and you tried re-running the installer after verifying those permissions? I don't have any experience installing my mods on localhost, unfortunately.

[Dee]

Yes .. I did re-run the installer with "Everyone - Full Control" permissions and still with the same error ... I have the Universal Mod and Board Panel installed ok ... Just tutorials is having a problem ...

Not a big deal ... was setting up everything locally to test the 2.2 skins before I upgrade ... I'll keep playing with it until I get it or break everything ...

[Michael]

Weird that the Board Panel would have worked but that this wouldn't, they're both just adding new skin templates and re-caching. This one would need to create a new file, but with Full Control it should be able to. Check the permissions for all the groups, do any of them have permissions that might prevent new files from being created in this directory?

[Dee]

Hi Mike

Removed all groups and the only group is "Everyone" which is a "Built in security principals" group and it is set to Full control .. Still no go ....

I'm really missing something here ...

[Michael]

Sorry, Dee, I wish I knew what to tell you, but I have never installed any of my mods on my own PC, I would have thought this would have worked.

[Dee]

No problem Mike .. If I don't figure it out its not a big deal .. I know this mod works on my server just was going to test the new skins locally before I upgrade ..

[Michael]

In theory, yes it could, but you'd have to change a lot in the language files (easy enough) and the PHP files (harder, but not necessarily necessary unless you'd be running both mods side by side) to make it work properly.

[Michael]

If you do decide to and need some help with the conversion of it to a recipes system, just let me know.

[Dee]

Oh...I'd only need it as a recipe system, not tutorials. And of course I wouldn't even use the current system.

Thanks...I'll consider this one the next time $40 is burning a hole in my pocket.

Brian I am using the tutorials as resource centre. My forum is about african grey parrots so I have renamed it to Grey Toolkit and the categories created are related to the care of a grey parrot. I can easily see you use this system as a recipe system ..

Michael,

Any chance of getting THIS updated for 2.2.x?? Thanks!!

[Michael]

I'm pretty sure it's exactly the same, with the exception of the code you have to find in the member_bar skin template (ipb. is now $this->ipsclass->).
