Hi Jay, sent you an email

edit forum_mod_list.tpl line 21 if ($moderator->pilotid == 1) {echo '&nbsp';} Change the 1 to the pilot number that you want as the permanent admin.

Go into the DB and find the table forum_moderators, the columns should be, id, pilot_id, mod_level 1 1 2 change the pilot_id column to whichever pilot you would like in that first row. If it is pilot #2 you would change it to id, pilot_id, mod_level 1 2 2

Looks like you got it under control.

Beta released here -> http://forum.phpvms.net/index.php?topic=1732.0

VAForum Beta 1.0 developed and tested using: php 5.3.0 phpVMS ver 819 ie8 *This addon will not work with the 700 version or beta's less than version 785 A simple forum board system that is contained within your phpVMS install. To Install: 1 - download attached package and unzip 2 - place the folders/files in your phpVMS install as they are structured in the package 3 - use the forum.sql file to create the new db tables using phpmyadmin or the like 4 - you are done! The system makes the pilot with id #1 in the db the main forum admin and can not be changed unless you do it through the db. There are four levels of user for the board: 1 - User - has rights to post messages 2 - Moderator - User permissions plus the ability to edit topics and posts 3 - Admin - User & Moderator permissions plus rights to create new boards and set user permissions. 4 - Banned - Can see boards but no posting permissions. To link to the forum index use -> <a href="<?php echo url('/Forum'); ?>">Forum</a> Moderator editing links are located within the topics and posts Admin board creation and user administration links are at the bottom of the forum index EDIT - *Do not delete the sample board before creating another one or just edit the sample board to fit your needs. Will be updating the code to avoid this in the next version. VAForum(lic).zip

good deal 8)

Did you upgrade from an old version or new install? There were some sql table changes for the folders and such going to 2.1 - Sounds like maybe that may be the issue. Check and make sure there are now two airmail related tables in the db. airmail and airmail_folders. Let me know what you find.

oh, sry... try just removing most of that line like this-> <li>

try changing this -> <li><?php echo $award->name ?>&nbsp to this -> <li><?php echo $award->name ?><br /><br />

Is anyone still interested in something like this? @flyzen - Could you send or attach what you have so far so we could complete the project?

I have not designed the db tables to match any other forum - you could do it with a lot of editing...

There is no real admin panel, all the user admin and board admin links are at the bottom of the forum index. They will only show for a board administrator. The sql file already has pilot #1 as the super admin. If you are not pilot #1 in the database you will need to change the pilot id in the forum_moderators table in the first line to your pilot id. You will also see all the topic and post moderation links when you are the admin or a moderator.

What happened? I hosted your virtual frontier for some time and then you had your own host? ???

The menu items on the release skin css are set to lowercase. You can take that line out of your css file and then they will be like you have them in the core_nav file.

I am looking for a couple of folks to help test a forum board I am working on that runs inside of phpVMS prior to the beta release. Would prefer folks with some php MVC and sql knowledge, and also running at least beta 785 or newer. Post a reply or pm me. Thanks!

Try just using www.yoursite.com/index.php/mail in the address bar and see what comes up. If mail comes up then it is the link in your menu, if nothing still comes up I am guessing a file in the wrong folder or a corrupted file when you uploaded. Try reloading all the files. Let me know how you make out.

Sorry, I am moving forward with the EXAMCenter and coding it to the new release of phpVMS. I really do not want to spend the time going backwards. You are more than welcome to change the script to fit your needs.

can you post or pm me the link to your page - it looks ok from here other than the widths only add up to 50%, which should still make the columns align

post your table code so we can see what you are doing, it will help us help you

a sample row might contain <tr> <td width="25%">do stuff</td> <td width="10%">do stuff</td> <td width="40%">do stuff</td> <td width="5%">do stuff</td> <td width="20%">do stuff</td> </tr> the table will then align all the columns to your preset widths. The total of all the "widths" = 100%

for example to set a column width in that file <td width="25%"><a href="<?php echo SITE_URL?>/index.php/profile/view/<?php echo $pilot->pilotid?>"> <?php echo PilotData::GetPilotCode($pilot->code, $pilot->pilotid)?></a> </td> notice the <td width="25%"> set a width for each column and make sure they add up to 100%

They are all on the production frontpage_main.tpl file for news <?php MainController::Run('News', 'ShowNewsFront', 5); ?> for pireps <?php MainController::Run('PIREPS', 'RecentFrontPage', 5); ?> for new pilots <?php MainController::Run('Pilots', 'RecentFrontPage', 5); ?>

The pilots table is located in the pilots_list.tpl file
