WoW Itemstats

[happycs]

what do i need to do to fix this?

[DarkCloud14]

Err you've uninstalled Itemstats before ?!?
However open Admin.php in <yourboard>/Sources and goto the
end of file there should be the function cleanupwowitems()
you should see it twice.. delete one of the functions...

Have you ever considered adding a WOWprofile option to this?

Something like the myspace/web field where you could put in your profileID from alakhazaam and it would do the little icon below your post/click to open in a new window thing?

The MOD is running great, althought I ran into some uberbroken stuff when I did the upgrade from 1.06 to 1.1RC2.  There were some keys in the DB that had to be removed by hand for a re-installation to work.  I'd reccomend to anyone doing the upgrade to uninstall first.

[DarkCloud14]

If you update to a new version or something I can only recommend always to uninstall Itemstats at the moment.
I'll add a installation check in the next version so you can upgrade from a previous version and hopefully don't have
to uninstall Itemstats anymore when an update is out.

Oh and I really don't know at the moment what you mean wit the myspace/web field at the moment ... I'll take a look at it..

[iivel]

You know how when you put your website address, YIM information, MSN Messenger info, etc ... into your profile it puts little mini-icons under your nick?  I thought it would be cool if it would be possible to have a field to put your hxxp:wow.alakazhaam.com [nonactive] profile ID in a box & accomplish the same thing - a mini-icon that when you clicks it opens up the profile in a new window.

[DarkCloud14]

Ahhh now I know what you're talking about. Maybe I'll
add something like that in a future release or so

demo anyone?

I have it running at Raven Flight.

There's only one public post - the rest are in the private guild areas I think.  But you can see what it does at least.

you can also test it on my site: www.darkcloud14.de

Hi

we are using SMF 1.1 RC 2 and Itemsats 1.23 with a shared Databse to our EQDKP System.

We have some problem when we 'add' a new item that isn't in the database - only items from the database can be used in our forum. Know anyone how i can fix it? Or is it a problem with the shared database? Because when i add an item via the eqdkp board i can use it too in the forum (like green crap items from WoW ^^).

I hope u can help me

[DarkCloud14]

pls take a look at this topic:
http://darkcloud14.de/forum/index.php?topic=16.0

[happycs]

have you happen to take a look at the mod quering the database on the boards instead of just the posts? I love the mod, but the board is to slow with that error.

[DarkCloud14]

Sorry happycs I tried to understand myself why they index/parse every message of the board you've entered.
I asked that question in the support forum but nobody could answer me that question.

That's one of the major points I'll get fixed somehow before I'll release a new version.

But until now I can't help you Sorry

You need to add the following lines to the page where you want to show the items:

Code Select Expand

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript" src="http://<yourboardurl>/Themes/default/itemstats/overlib/overlib.js"><!-- overLIB (c) Erik Bosrup --></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://<yourboardurl>/Themes/default/itemstats/templates/itemstats.css" />

Tried that and still get:
No Database Selected
File: /xxx/xxx/public_html/rf-fov/community/Sources/itemstats/includes/itemcache.php
Line: 27

Hmm I'm sorry but I really can't help you here. It's what I told Digital-Wraith. He said that it solved his problem.
I really can't tell you what else he did... I think it's better to ask Digital so he can tell you what else you've to do.
And then you post here in the topic how you can get it to work ?!?
Or I ask him for you and make it public ... I never tried the SSI functions .... Sorry

DarkCloud14 (or any coders that are feeling helpful?) - could you check into this again?  I tried sending Digital-Wraith a PM but have gotten no answer after almost a week.

I just installed this mod for SMF 1.0.6 and am happy to report that everything seems to be working OK, for the most part.

I've noticed that http://wow.allakhazam.com/ doesn't seem to let you search for types of random items, such as "Abyssal Mail Handguards of Striking" or "Engraved Helm of the Monkey" or anything "of the Type", whereas thottbot happily displays the information when you search for a specific subtype of an item.

I tried to modify the addon to get it to pull from Thottbot without much success.  Is this a known issue with Allakhazam or should it be able to search for [wowitem]Engraved Helm of the Monkey[/wowitem] or other such items and have it work?

Thanks in advance!

This is officially the best mod ever, IMO.

Oh yeah....Best Mod Ever!!

I've noticed recently that quite a few items are showing up as grey, i.e. not available on allahkzam. An example would be Truefaith Vestments which does exist on Allakhzam but still displays as grey text.

The items are spelled correctly and I'm using the newest version of itemstats.

Any ideas?

Had some problems setting up itemstats, but the biggest was the one where
MySQL would give an error along the lines of :
"The used table type doesn't support FULLTEXT indexes" and complained about line 27 in itemcache.php

I found (thanks to google ) that if you insert in itemcache.php on line 27
FULLTEXT KEY `item_html` (`item_html`))TYPE = MyISAM", __FILE__, __LINE__);
it should work.

Fixed my error atleast... thought I'd let you guys know, in case someone else stumbles
across that annoying error.

OK that's because I'm using just the first item allakhazams search found and check if it's the same
the user entered. In that case allakhazams search found 2 items first one is the pattern and second
one is Truefaith Vestments. I'll fix that in the next version but at the moment I'm a bit busy...

@Punkkari: Thanks thats also a problem I'll fix in the next version. The problem is that your MySQL
is configured so that it'll create the database as InnoDB instead MyISAM db...

That error was already posted in my forum www.darkcloud14.de

Couple of problems that I noticed, and didn't see answered (but I skimmed, so don't hurt me if this is a repeat):


First, if you're getting the "duplicate entry, enableWowItemStats" or whatever error, it's most likely due to the fact that you had it installed before on the same DB, and now when it's trying to install, the DB is already there. Fix for this on the author's end would be to make it drop any db entries that it has to make before it creates them.

On the user's end, until that happens, you can delete the two itemstats entries in the smf_settings table of your DB. Should do the trick.


Also, I noticed that when I tried the .zip version, it hosed my admin page, because it added two identical sections to the end of my /sources/admin.php (though, this might have been due to the partial install, thanks to the existing Db entries.)

I tried a few times, after restoring the files, but to no avail. Sure, I really could just edit admin.php, but I wanted a clean install (and wanted SMF to actually show that it was installed), so I went back and re-uploaded the original files that this mod edits, then downloaded the .tar.gz, in case there was a difference. With fresh files, and no itemstats entries in my DB, I installed the tar.gz version of the mod via the packages interface. Install was a success on the first try. Worked like a charm, no errors, and I can still get into my admin control panel.

Sooo, I may have screwed things up along the way somewhere, but there could be a problem with the .zip version.

Hope this helped someone!
