Do you not see the orange XML button at the top? That's the backend xml.

That's because I was leaving that up to each admin. Not everyone wants the same info passed. You just need to take backend.php and modify it for your use. For a head-start, here is mine

Raven...Using your block for a start my links are all messed up as well but they look nothing like dirtbags... Here is an example of what comes up when I click on the xml link in the collapsing forums block:
[ Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login! ] en-us [ Only registered users can see links on this board!

They are all scrunched together...??? and the page looks nothing like an rss/xml page should. Help ? lol Embarassed

Also most of those links and numbers are bad...no such posting number...where do I edit to fix the number or what is shown in the xml, once it actually looks like a real xml file? worship

XML text is showing up properly now...server time delay probably...however those links are bad...no such postings exist such as [ Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login! ]

What'd I do wrong ? lol

The correct link for the topic number above is actually: [ Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login! ]

GT Issue??? as in google tap ? I have no idea what that is and don't think I have it. I do have a google websearch block and the google ads block...but that's it.

Are you certain that you have the absolute latest version of that block? Look inside the block script and see if "Version 2.3.0" is at the top... Also, are you sure yourself or someone else hasn't modified the code? You might want to try replacing it with a freshly downloaded 2.3.0 version from this site here.

Yes I have the latest version of the block I downloaded it from Ravens site here. No I have not edited the block except to take out the image and link for the xml temporarily until fixed. I still have original file saved.

From the top of the block php file
Code:


# Support: http://ravenphpscripts.com                                  #
# Hosting: http://ravenwebhosting.com                                  #
# Version: 2.3.1   

# Version 2.3.1                                                        #
# 02/13/2006  : Modified default empty $skipTopPostersUserNames="''"   #
#             : due to certain releases of MySQL behavior.             #
#             : Added setting ($showTickerMessage) to control ticker

Well, I have downloaded the script and everything there looks fine. So, your site definitely has some form of GoogleTap installed. Had you installed this site yourself or did someone else do this for you?

I went to go check out the site, but I am being blocked here at work... sorry!

I installed the site myself but do not "Host" it.

I Never installed any Google Tap what so ever as I have heard nothing but problems relating to it.

The only way I could have any google tap installed is if it came with a module or block I have installed on the site.

How do I check to see if a google tap is installed with another block or module?

I will run a database search later to see if it comes up with anything regarding a Google Tap.

I couldnt find anything relating to googletap but the site is so slow I gave up.
What version is your forum? It looks quite old if the footer is correct.

Site doesn't load slow for me...Anyway my version is

I am not sure howevery why it states both phpbb stand alone and BBtoNuke...are they the same thing ? Names always bug me LOL


P.S. The Host is working on the server right now...that is why you had a slow site load problem.

No offence but you really need to get your forum up to date and patched.
There has been at least one change in the way that sessions are handled since your version came out and updating your forum may actually fix the issue you have without any further problems.

PostPosted: Wed Jun 28, 2006 11:17 am Reply with quote

According to what I am seeing I am up to date... (?)

Can you give me a link to where to get an Upgrade and patches ?

I will check NukeCops in the mean time.

Thanks!

P.S.
I am considering changing my site over to Raven's Nuke...I currently have my "PHPNuke" installed in a separate folder not in "root" of site...Can I safely install Raven's Nuke into the Root of my site without affecting how my site currently appears until I get all installed and moved over ?

May sound like a dumb Q but need to know. LOL

PostPosted: Wed Jun 28, 2006 11:52 am Reply with quote

Yes you can safely install Raven Nuke so long as it is an different directory or the site root provided your host will allow you more than one mySQL database.
Depending on which version of nuke you are surrently using, you should be able to move the data without too much hassle.
BBtoNuke is the forums you should looking at NOT the phpBB stand alone forum. For clarification, BBtoNuke is phpBB Forum modified to work with nuke.

If you could clarify the nuke version you have, that might give us some indication of which BBtoNuke forum version may be installed (in case the footer message is inaccurate) - that is of course if you have not done any updates since it was originally installed.

Well you shouldnt have much problem moving data to Raven Nuke if you wanted to go that route.
I will have to download the block and try it as I'm out of idea's at this stage unless the block is 'tapped'.

I downloaded it yesterday and took a look because I was concerned it was hard-coded on the links... I couldn't see it, but maybe I missed one somewhere when I was looking at it.

Sorry, pdoobepd, I tried to check your site too to see if it was running GT'd, but after several minutes, it still had not come up to the main home page. Maybe it was just at that point in time.
