When do you anticipate being able to include compatibility with 1.1.5?

but i have a question: on ie (with the mod set at 500) i get a bunch of words in the pop up, but on ff i only get maybe a good sentence.. is this how it is supposed to work??  8)

It's a Firefox bug. Read reply #161 in this topic for an explanation and a possible solution.

snork13 will probably update the mod, but meanwhile you can try adding ;version_emulate=1.1.4 to the Package Manager URL. The link should be something like:
http://www.yourforum.com/index.php?action=packages;version_emulate=1.1.4
Then try to install the mod.

Tried it, and it installs successfully, however, mod does not work. also, in the admin, i get this:

Are you using English-utf8 or another language? If so, add these:

$txt['hoverLength_desc'] = 'Length of the message preview on hover';
$txt['hoverCharacters'] = 'characters';

at the bottom of Themes/default/languages/Modifications.english.php or Themes/default/languages/Admin.<your_language>.php, but before the ?> tag.

Excellent, thanks... That solved the problem in admin (Have plenty of this kind of problem with other mods.. drives me insane).

Unfortunately, I still have no preview on mouse over...

any ideas? what other info do you need from me?

sevenworth

btw, you asked if i was using english-utf8 or another language... I'm using english-utf8. do i have any alternatives? particularly ones that would aviod this exact issue with other mods...?

use english
(no utf-8)

will that help in preventing mods from installing incorrectly (on the admin section)? I want to try and avoid having blank options all over the show...

I have set the forum to english. actually have no idea why is was on utf8 to begin with. what is the difference? what is utf8?

Also read the UTF-8 Readme.

1) Did you install SMF via Fantastico or some other third-party software? Nothing wrong with it (Fantastico has permission to do that), but there could be some differences in the way SMF is set up, including UTF-8 support.

2) In SMF Admin > Forum Maintenance, do you see "Convert the database and data to UTF-8" or do you see "Convert HTML entities to UTF-8 characters"?

1. Installed by Fantastico, yes.

2. I see:

QuoteConvert HTML-entities to UTF-8 characters

but I have never used it because i was unsure what it does.

Thanks.

I don't know why (very seldom) i decide to ask someone a question when its far easier and quicker to google or wiki it.

With version 1.1.5:
The package you are trying to download or install is either corrupt or not compatible with this version of SMF.

I am trying to install this mod manually on the Aero79 theme (smf 1.1.5). The XML file is telling me to make changes in Recent.template.php which doesnt exist on this particular theme.

What now?

Kindred

did you run the automatic install?

Normally, for mods: run the auto-install (this will install it into the sources and default theme., then do manual installation on any file which failed the auto-install test or any files in alternate themes.
If a template files does not exist in a theme, then the system uses the default theme version of that file.
