[akbora]

Notice! This mod doesn't work with Explorer 8.

[Matthew K.]

It does work with IE 8, however, when you click on the page it stops snowing.

[akbora]

No unfortunately I stopped snowing and it didin't snow at explorer 8

[bobbart]

Thanks for the mod. 
It works well however it does not seem to be working for IE Internet Explorer.  Works perfect in Firefox but nothing shows in IE

EDITED

This works fine in IE.  You just need to add the site to your Trusted Sites.

[henrik1782]

I have snow in both IE og Firefox...

[akbora]

Which one IE? this works with IE except IE 8. I explained it. Thanks.

This works firefox, Safari, Opera, IE all (except IE8) I tried no problem.

[sharks]

The permission problem is still not fixed. Members (other than admins) cannot turn off the snow in their profile.

[Casal]

Thanks for the mod but I need the language Spanish please.

Someone can help me?

[NanoSector]

Thanks for the mod but I need the language Spanish please.

Someone can help me?

Translate it?

That's what I did with SubAccounts when I needed Dutch

[winter1966]

I would like to start by saying thanks for the amount of work that people have put into this mod.  I am having some issues that I was hoping I might be able to get assistance with.

We run a small discussion forum currently using SMF version 1.1.12

A couple of the members had suggested this mod so I downloaded the Project_Snow_v1.0.tar.gz and the  Project_Snow_1.1.zip from the following page;

http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=2356


First I tried to install the Project_Snow_v1.0.tar.gz file through the SMF Admin Control panel under Admin-->Packages-->Download Packages. The .tz file uploaded fine but when I went to Install the mod I got the following error:

Install Actions
Installations actions for "Project Snow":
The package you are trying to download or install is either corrupt or not compatible with this version of SMF.

I figured that perhaps I uploaded the wrong package and that .tz upload was the package for the SMF verson 2 so I tried the zip file Project_Snow_1.1.zip and it uploaded fine.  At first glance seemed to install without any hitches.

Installing this package will perform the following actions:
   Type    Action    Description
1.    Execute Modification    ./Sources/Load.php    Test successful
2.    Execute Modification    ./Sources/ManagePermissions.php    Test successful
3.    Execute Modification    ./Sources/ModSettings.php    Test successful
4.    Execute Modification    ./Themes/default/Profile.template.php    Test successful
5.    Execute Modification    ./Themes/default/Settings.template.php    Test successful
6.    Execute Modification    ./Themes/default/languages/Help.english.php    Test successful
7.    Execute Modification    ./Themes/default/languages/Modifications.english.php    Test successful
8.    Extract File    ./Themes/default/snowstorm.js    
9.    Extract File    ./Themes/default/languages/Project-Snow.english.php    

Extracting
Extracting Package
The package was installed successfully. You should now be able to use whatever functionality it adds or changes; or not be able to use functionality it removes.

Presto, we have snow on our forums.


As I went to tweak the settings I realized that there was a problem, as there was nowhere in the  Admin Control Panel to adjust anything.  I scoured the entire ACP with no sign of any settings.  I searched these forums to see if I could locate where they should be.  When I went into the "Features and Options" where everyone seemed to suggest the adjustments would be it was simply not there at all.  All I had was Basic Features, Layout & Options, and Karma.  Not a mention nor any sign of the Project Snow mod. 

I went into the Permissions and looked around in there and there was no settings or user settings to turn Project Snow on or off.  There wasn't even that box with a blank description beside it as others have mentioned.

It was as if the mod installed and the snowstorm.js was running (snow was falling) but there were no control options, really wierd.

Anyway, after messing with it for an hour or so I figured maybe it was a bad install so I uninstalled the mod and the discussion forum went back to normal (no snow).  I tried to re-deploy the mod per chance the first time it didn't install properly and another issue arose.  It is snowing again on the board, however, I can't get to the "settings" to see if they work because now I get the following error when I click on "Features and Options"

Features & Options

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare manageprojectsnow() (previously declared in /home/*****/public_html/********/forum/Sources/ModSettings.php:373) in /home/****/public_html/*********/forum/Sources/ModSettings.php on line 452

If I uninstall the mod it uninstalls properly and the board goes back to normal, as well as the "Features and Options" returns to normal and no longer displays the error.  So my forums are fine if I don't have the mod installed.


I did some further poking around and it has been suggested that error was related to the modsettings.php file becoming corrupted because of a bad uninstall.  When I download and look at my modsettings.php file (even after completely uninstalling the package) I see a whole bunch of remaining code from the package.  I guess that is why I can not reinstall the mod.

I will try to attach the modsettings.php file to see if anyone could point to the offending code.  Perhaps we can edit the file to remove whatever seems to be causing the offense.

Remember, this is what the file looks like after the Project_Snow has been uninstalled.  I'm hoping to get the file back to pre-installation state so that I can try to deploy the package again.

Thanks for any help anyone might be able to offer.

I have saved the modsettings.php file as a .txt file for ease.

[busterone]

Look in your packages folder for a subfolder named backup. Within that folder you will find a file with a date- example- 2010-12-02_before_Project_Snow_1.tar.gz   
Download that file and uncompress it. Within that archive will be a backup copy of all the files that were edited by the mod installation. They will all be in their original state immediately BEFORE the mod installation.
You can then find the file you need and upload that file to replace the one that the forum is using now.

[winter1966]

Thanks for the idea. 

Unfortunately when i look in that backup folder the only file I see is index.php dated 2007.

[NanoSector]

Thanks for the idea. 

Unfortunately when i look in that backup folder the only file I see is index.php dated 2007.

...weird. You can't have a file that's older then the SMF version; all files are overwritten when upgrading/installing.

Upload the upgrade files.

[Matthew K.]

Edit: After looking into it, the file looks like it's in order. Would you please try uninstalling the mod and then reinstalling it? Make sure to use Version 1.1.

[winter1966]

Sorry for being a pain.....

Labradoodle;  That is the file AFTER I uninstall the mod, so somehow the Project_Snow mod left all of that behind on the uninstall.

I have already tried uninstalling & reinstalling the mod (several times now).  At a glance i seems to install fine, however, I get that error

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare manageprojectsnow() (previously declared in /home/*****/public_html/********/forum/Sources/ModSettings.php:373) in /home/****/public_html/*********/forum/Sources/ModSettings.php on line 452

when I try to click on "Features and Options" in the admin panel of SMF 1.1.12.


Yoshi;

What do you mean by "upload the upgrade files"   Which upgrade files?

and yes, the date on the index.php file in the /forum/packages/backups directory or folder is dated September 27, 2007 @ 12:00:00.  It is the only file in that folder.


I don't have any other mods installed.  If I can clean the modsettings.php file back to the way it was prior to the install of Project_Snow I can try to redeploy the mod.  Is the modsettings.php file a pretty generic file if you don't have any mods installed?  Maybe I can try replacing it with a clean file.

Can I just delete the modsettings.php file?  Will it rebuild itself upon another install of Project_Snow or will that really mess up the forum?

Go ahead and install Project Snow 1.1 then and then attach ModSettings.php and I will take care of it for you.

Ahh.... I get you.  You figure it might be different than the one that I previously attached after I uninstalled the mod.

Here is the file AFTER I install the mod (from about 5 mins ago).

Once again the php extension renamed to txt


{edit}

I see, there is 78 lines of duplicated code in the modsettings.php file after reinstalling the mod.  Lines 372 to 449 (starts on line 372 at // SMF Modders; Project Snow
function ManageProjectSnow($return_config = false)

and then the entire block of code is repeated again starting on line 451.

Now at least I see why I'm getting the error........
