Well i decided to change my site and googletap the whole stuff..
On the testarea all seems to be working.
I started out with gt nextgen but that wasnt working with my CZmodules of telli.

But as its habracadabra to me so i need help with my downloads/webslinks block you see on my site..(block on top) and i could use a hand with the furums block i use....

Who is going to be that nice ?

Are you still using GT-Nextgen? If so there is a handy little tool at the GT-Nextgen site that can convert your blocks for you.

Hi curtis,

No for the hitwalker site im using googletap cause gt nextgen isnt compatible with the CZmodules block from telli im using.
But its a matter of what we prefer...

But allthough im not using gt i tried the block generator but it doesnt work.

For example...using the generator..
Normaly the link to a topic is...
modules . php ? name = Forums & file = viewtopic & p = 46#46
(posted it wide cause the forum here trashes it)

After converted its : ftopicp-46.html#46 , but that doesnt excist

I was hoping that would solve your issues for you. Sorry it was bum advice. I haven't really messed around with Googletap myself, but chose GT-NextGen instead, so I am afraid I am just no help at all. Laughing

Maybe one of the other folks here can help.

Well yeah that would be nice...i dont have that much problems only those 2 blocks...
I realy hope that i dont have to go to nukecops for any help on this...

Is it possible to review the rewrite rules and the url in and url out codes for the existing forums, weblinks and downloads then using that info modify your blocks accordingly? I am not sure how Googletap handles it for sure but in GT you can view these codes and using that info modify stuff to use it.

you want the 2 blocks ?
or also the googletap files curtis ?

Sure, send it to me on my site via attachment (please zip the files) or email it to me at webmaster [at] bbtonukemods [dot] com and I'll see if I can be of any help at all. Laughing

PM me the email address curtis ...
And the job is very urgent...
Why?...lol

Because I dont give myself that much time finishing cause im about to transfer my site from the well know /phpx/html/ directory back to the root like [ Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login! ] , thats realy needed.
But its not only the block i think...
The forum works more or less but when i go to a forum like...
forums.html?file=viewforum&f=4 it stays on the forum, i cant view the topic...
But didnt we had some geniuses here on the forum ?
Where are they ?

Anyway what email curtis ?

After I made my post I went looking for a solution to your CZModules and GT-NextGen incompatability issue and found this post at codezwiz that may help you.

Not sure if that is worth looking into or not.

I will PM you the email address momentarily

its send curtis..
well i tried gt but i already have a modified version og the modules file,telli did that cause it had a conflict with e-solution...
but i think googletap is maybe easier to extend.
i mean..you only have to add lines into the file header.php an htaccess.
and unlike gt i dont have to create a file...

Yeah I have heard a little about the original Googletap. Seems like quite a few prefer it. Not sure why I chose GT-NextGen (can't remember what made me decide) but since I use it I am a bit more familar there, however I will try my best to see if I can figure out something that helps.

Posted: Fri Nov 04, 2005 3:12 pm

Well just as I feared...they are close enough in design that it looks familar, but there are some differences in the way that they rewrite. Once again I think I may be useless... *LOL*

Did I understand you correctly to say that as it is, it isn't correctly rewriting the urls for the forums?

Posted: Fri Nov 04, 2005 3:16 pm

yes...,for some reason the urls are not correct....
the downloads act the same...
But naturaly as expected alll normal modules work perfectly..as far as i can tell...
To bad other admins aren't dropping in here on this topic,makes me as i try to help other as much as i can realy frustrated....

Posted: Fri Nov 04, 2005 3:27 pm

I wonder if you were to substitute some of the rewrites from NextGen...... LOL

I think the others usually start popping in by the late evening, and Raven has been sick lately. I am sure someone will pop in soon. I think TheosEleos has experience with the original Googletap, maybe he can help.

Well at this moment i can still go 2 ways,i just turned to gt again but weird this is,is that i dont have problems with the forum...that works....
Thing is curtis...my patience is like zero with this stuff...
And im waiting for solutions..and realy want to change to my root...
so im back to gt again...
So that was your territory ?

Posted: Fri Nov 04, 2005 3:50 pm

My territory? I don't understand what you mean, forgive me.

I have been using GT-NextGen for quite a while and am not sure of where all the two differ. I do know however that GT-NextGen has not been problematic in any way on the sites I use it on.

well for now this part of install and compatible or not is solved.,thanks to telli ..
