MANY THANKS and Congrats Andy :D

[Andy Rixon]

Your welcome, and thank you :D

[Kadim Dostlar]

Thanks for letting us use this wonderful application for free :)

I'm wondering can we add more tabs for ,iAbout pages ?

I may need 2 or 3 extra tabs for giving informatin about my site ;)

It'll be great if we can add content to extra tabs from my apps screen. But if it's so hard, i can add content to extra tabs from templates screen with html codes by manuel.

Thanks.

[Kadim Dostlar]

Andy, can you just say is it possible or not

When I click on the Administrators tab I get a data base error:

If you are seeing this page, it means there was a problem communicating with our database. Sometimes this error is temporary and will go away when you refresh the page. Sometimes the error will need to be fixed by an administrator before the site will become accessible again. You can try to refresh the page by clicking here


Has this been fixed yet to allow BBcode? I know in you previous version you said you were going to fix that issue for the next.

There appears to be an error with the database.

This can only be done manually, and would be difficult as the code will need to be alered big time.

Have you upgraded from another version, if so, please read Step 3 in the Upgrading.html file that came with the download package.

For some reason BBcode only works within the Administrators tab.

Can you say which templates and/or files i need to edit ?

I want to take a shot

[Andy Rixon]

Sorry, but I would not allow anyone making edits to my code, if you wish, I could do this, but I will charge a small fee of £5 GBP via PayPal which I think is faily reasonable.

PM me fore more information.

(If you wish to pay via credit/debit card, this can be arranged sepperatly to PayPal)

Does it work with ipb 3.0.5?

[Andy Rixon]

Yes, it does :D

[Damelaz]

nice app but uhm andy you will or may hate me for this :rolleyes:

to make the bbcode work you need to edit 2 files and change html bbcode to 1 insteed of 0


but andy listen he when they dowload your app/addon they may make some change to fit what they want BUT they may not change or remove the copyright code or resell it but they may change everthing else

[Andy Rixon]

I don't allow any changes to any of the code, and if they do, they are violating my terms.

[Andy Rixon]

Development for iAbout ULTRA for IP.Board 3.0.x have been discontinued, I will be consantrating on IP.Board 3.1.x
Should a security issue be found, please PM me and I will package it up and add it to this topic.

what i found was a fix for it to work with in the Iabout tab on the front end of the app
and well its not 2 files but only 1
a small fix to get the html/bbcode to work

still a nice app looking forward for the ipb 3.1 version

regards JamNet

Even if part of your mod doesn't work?

Yes, unless they want to PM with details on how to fix it (specially bbcode fixes) so i can do the fix and then release a fix.

[Chris Ticehurst]

It is strange for a coder to go abit crazy about someone trying to help by changing their code. Is it a Ego thing or what? My suggesttion is to fix the bbcode issue ASAP - it's terrible to see such a basic thing done wrong. Another idea is maybe including a Hall of Fame tab for special members.

And....how do you add information about the Admins? I haven't seen anything to change it.

[Andy Rixon]

AdminCP -> My Apps -> iAbout ULTRA -> Admin Bios (on lefthand side).

Its not an Ego thing.... but ok, to please everyone, BBcode is a weakness for me, and always have been... so if someone would like to edit my code (should only need to change aboutus.php file in modules_public folder) to fix the BBcode issue, go a head and fix it and PM me the edited file. (If a template bit edit is needed, include instructions for that).

I do appreciate the help, and the main reasons is that I have not had time to look into the bbcode issue much.

Thank you.

A very nice mod, Andy but I too would like to know how to add text to the Admin area.

Also, the admin folder appears, at least in part, to be hard-coded into the mod. I get a missing graphic in the News section because it references /admin when my admin folder has been renamed.

=:~)

[Andy Rixon]

When the app was first developed, I over looked the fact that admin folders can be renamed, I shall look into this.
