Thanks, I would gladly pay someone to do the ugprade job for me.
Maybe you (some paypal money)

I'm too scared of messing my forum.
Here is a link to the forum

 I'm a bit concerned that accepting such an offer might be taking from SMF...you see SMF offers Charter Membership and as part of that you'd get a special support forum and one on one help as well as an installation done for you.

http://www.simplemachines.org/charter/

I try to provide some support here by way of giving back to SMF so the last thing I'd want to do is to take away some vital revenue from it...I hope you see what I mean.

The process I described might sound daunting but it's really easy enough and if you do it via the test forum route you can take your time and have no risk to your main forum while you do it.

Thanks for your kind offer though.

ragots

I'll follow the test forum route and let you know.

Thanks

TrueSatan

Given that it's very off topic as regards this particular mod perhaps you'd like to let me know how you get on via PM?

ragots

Ok, I will contact you via PM and let you know.
One last thing. I've looked everywhere on how to change the width of the standalone version of my forum.
http://love.mixbeat.com/hype/smf/index.php

I've tried everything, I would like the standalone version to be centered and 775px width. I don't know where to change that.
In style.css ? Where ?

Thanks in advance.

TrueSatan

Have a look in style.css (working on that for the SMF default theme for this example)...find:

/* The main body of the entire forum. */
body
{
background-color: white;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
}


...change to

/* The main body of the entire forum. */
body
{
background-color: white;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
        width: 775px;
}


BTW...this Q & A is off topic so let's not keep doing it...more appropriate to General English Support I'd say.

Please ignore my last post.

I have now installed the mod.

I have a problem.

You can type in tags when you start a new topic but when when admin tries to add new tags to an already existing post you get this message :

No topic selected.

TrueSatan

You would do best to go to:

ACP>Packages>Options

Set the Installation Options to those appropriate to your hosting then in Cleanup Permissions make all files writeable.

Check via ftp (not sure what systems cpanel provides regarding ftp) that your files are set to CHMOD 777 or 775 depending on your host configuration.

This should resolve the problem you had...you should follow this process whenever you install or uninstall any mod or theme though when not doing so you can use Cleanup Permissions to "tighten" your CHMOD settings.

Once you've done the above try the automatic installation again.

glennk

Hi sorry about this,

I somehow managed it ( a filepath was wrong)

Please ignore my last post.

I have now installed the mod.

I do have a problem now though.

You can type in tags when you start a new topic but when when admin tries to add new tags to an already existing post you get this message :

No topic selected.

TrueSatan

I think this might still be a CHMOD issue...try the method I gave above to make all files writeable.

glennk

ok I checked in spanel and the folder for this mod is 777

I am still getting the error

No topic selected.

TrueSatan

Your reply leaves the situation very unclear. I am asking you to use the method I described above to make all the files in your forum writeable...have you done so? This mod has no "folder" and it edits a number of files (in four different directories) as well as adding four new ones (3 different directories.)

Hi True satan,

Sorry for any confusion. A little confused myself really

I have done what you say.  The first time you do it it asks for a password then when you put the password in and press "change file permisions" the screen reloads - no errors show etc, but there is no message to say if the operation was successful or not ?

I am unable to chack chmod via my ftp as it doesnt have the function. This is what cpanel shows for plugins

   Up one level      
   backups      777
   Create New File      
   3D_Art_avatars_1.1.zip   97 k   0777
   Googlebot_v2_0_3_only_smf1.1.x.zip   9 k   0777
   MemberAwards_1-0-2.zip   18 k   0777
   Tags.zip   10 k   0777
   ad_mod_1-1-x_v2-3.zip   17 k   0777
   cbi-1.zip   1 k   0777
   enhanced_qr-1.1.tar.gz   5 k   0777
   index.php   0 k   0777
   installed.list   0 k   0777
   prettyurls-base_0_7.tar.gz   10 k   0777
   thesimpsonsavatars.zip   312 k   0777
   yt_bbc_xhtml_1.0.zip   2 k   0777

Is there any other way to sort this out please ?

TrueSatan

@ glennk

You are obviously looking at the packages directory but from what you've reported it does appear that everything is CHMOD 777 so it's looking likely that the rest of your forum is the same and thus that the Installation Options did its job properly.

I would wonder if this problem might be due to your use of the prettyurls mod...would you mind, please, uninstalling that and then trying this mod again?

glennk

#134
Ok, uninstalled pretty urls and all is well with the tagging mod now, but unfortunately I cant get the pretty urls mod to go back in now and am getting this error

An Error Has Occurred!
Hacking attempt...

:'(

TrueSatan

#135
The mods appear to conflict (at least in your configuration) you would probably be best not to add PrettyURL's again if you want to use this mod. The modification the PrettyURL's developer suggested to you may work but it untested...you would be best IMHO to choose either this mod or PrettyURL's not both.

And where do i delete tags from topics that are deleted ?


I have the same question. 
I created a new topic with a new tag. I deleted that topic,
but the tag related to it stil shows.
How do I delete that tag ?
