I don't know what i'm doing wrong

In line 56 i copy - host/ user and passwd exactly how is in confglobal and no works!

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user 'nobody'@'localhost' (using password: NO) in /home/xxxxxxx/public_html/v22/forums/news.php on line 56
mysql_connect(): Access denied for user 'nobody'@'localhost' (using password: NO)

tks in advance

[NuclearGeneral]

You don't copy your MySQL Host, Username, and Password into the script. It gets its information from your forums conf_global.php file.
You change the path to you forum by change this line:
(Do NOT add a trailing slash.)

CODE

$cfg['forum_path']  = "./forums";

And this line MUST stay the same:

CODE

require_once( $cfg['forum_path'] . "/conf_global.php" );

[barroca]

Tks
I will try now

Is there anyway to make this Parse BBcode ?

I use a youtube bbcode on my site and some of my news has a video in it. On the front of the site it says LINK so its not parsing it and doing what it should.


How hard would this be to add ?


And yes i understand this is an old topic

This is an auto-reply to your post: Because your post was unclear or a lack of information was provided, we ask that you double check your installation and ensure first of all that all files and folders have been properly uploaded to the remote site and have followed the correct directory structure. Secondly go over all of your file edits to ensure there are no errors. Thirdly it's advised you read our Modification Installation FAQ which answers common questions and shows common errors. Last but not least,  check to ensure you are installing the correct version for your board.

Once you've done all of the above and you still have issues then post here again, being specific and as detailed as possible.

Hi, sorry for not trying to help anyone out on their problems with this mod.

Shortly after I designed this mod and posted it on several IPB mod sites, I lost access to the internet for a year, then finally got the internet put in my name 3 weeks ago.

But anywho... I've been noticing people having some issues with this news script. I'll describe how I have this script setup to work the way it was made too work.

First of all, I do believe I stated in the post that this mod is to be intended as a PHP Include.

-----------------------------------------------------------

***See, I "DID" state that in the first post!!***

Second of all, here is how I have it setup:

1.) I have the news.php file inside my ./forums/ directory.
2.) I use a PHP Include Code:

<?PHP INCLUDE("forums/news.php")?>

The designed layout of the news script is based on my sites layout.

	/* EDIT THE DISPLAY DESIGN BELOW - CAREFUL (BEGIN) */
$sTemplate = <<<EOT
<table width="100%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1" border="0" class="forumline">
  <tr>
	<th class="thTop" height="20"><A NAME="<!-- TOPIC -->" title="<!-- TITLE -->"><FONT class="topic_title"><!-- TITLE --></FONT></a></th>
  </tr>
  <tr>
	<td class="row1" align="left" width="100%">
	  <span class="gensmall">
	  Posted on <B><!-- TIME --></B> by <a href="<!-- FORUM -->/index.php?showuser=<!-- USER -->" target="_blank" title="Click Here For <!-- AUTHOR -->'s Profile!"><B><!-- AUTHOR --></B></a>
<HR size="1" class="hr" />
	  <div align="left"><!-- POST --></div>
	  </span>
<HR size="1" class="hr" />
	  <span class="gensmall">
<div align="right">
<a href="<!-- FORUM -->/index.php?showtopic=<!-- TOPIC -->" title="View This Topic" target="_blank">&raquo; View Topic &laquo;</a> [<!-- REPLIES -->] | <a href="<!-- FORUM -->/index.php?act=post&amp;do=reply_post&amp;f=6&amp;t=<!-- TOPIC -->" title="Add A Reply To: <!-- TITLE -->" target="_blank">&raquo; Reply To This Topic &laquo;</a> | <a href="<!-- FORUM -->/index.php?showtopic=<!-- TOPIC -->&amp;view=getlastpost" title="Click For Last Post Made!" target="_blank">&raquo; <IMG src="<!-- FORUM -->/style_images/1/lastpost.gif" alt="Click For Last Post Made!" valign="top" border="0" /> &laquo;</a> | <A HREF="java script:scroll(0,0);" title="Top Of Page">&raquo; Top &laquo;</A>
</div>
<HR size="1" class="hr" />
	  </span>
	</td>
  </tr>
</table>
<BR />
EOT;

	/* EDIT THE DISPLAY DESIGN BELOW - CAREFUL (END) */

***NOTE: DO NOT REMOVE "$sTemplate = <<<EOT" OR "EOT;" CODES. IT IS THE BASE OF THE HTML CODING FOR THE NEWS SCRIPT!!!***

The code you see above can be edited "Completely" to your liking and is found the same way inside the news.php file when you download the script.

There is also a section in the readme file that explains which tags to which task.

If you need help installing my script, I will install it for you for "FREE" seeing as I wasn't here to help you when you needed it lol.

Now then, if you continue to have troubles with this mod, please don't hesitate to send me an "email" to nucleargeneral[at]live[dot].com or webmaster[at]tiberiumstudios[dot]net. But please do not send me SPAM emails.

NOTE: The currently uploaded file works correctly the was it was intended to. If you are trying to use it in a different way, then yes you will get some error messages. But I strongly suggest you use it in the intended way as I stated the first time.

Thanks,
         NuclearGeneral
