Fellas, I am in a world of hurt here. I am taking a class on VB and personally I hate it. I have a project to do that has to do with using constants, functions and sub procedures. It is due by tonight (Tuesday) at 11:59 pm EST If there is anyone at all who knows VB and would not mind helping me out, I would REALLLLLLLY appreciate it. The project is all over the net, but the code to me is useless because I do not know if it is right or wrong and if I do not name my buttons and such exactly like they did, the code will not work anyhow. I am in a real bind here and rarely to never ask for help doing my school work. Taking this course on VB made me realise something REAL fast. I am never going to use it for anything in life. Simply enough, I can not stand VB. I have nothing but respect for those that do like it and are good at it. Ray

Oh yeah I expect some issues with betas. I just no sooner noticed I had a few issues I come back and you released a few more betas. lol I went months with out upgrading and the moment I do, you push and push some more. Way to keep me on my toes there Nabeel. All in all though, thanks for the hard work. Please do know that it is very much appreciated.

Yeah it actually works out really well. The way I am going to work it is, the hub managers will need to run at least 2 promos per month normally for two weeks at a time. Like fly this set of flights and receive double pay or something of the such. They will post it specifically in the promotions forum as well as their divisions forum. I did test it and it worked out pretty good.

Hi all. I read a while back that someone has on their site a live ACARS stats on their home page much like the newest pilot banner on top of the home page. I have searched and searched and can not find it. I think with old age setting in on me my search skills are starting to slip on me. To be exact, what this code did was give a list of everyone who is actively doing an ACARS flight on the VA website. Not Vatsim or IVAO or anything, it was just who is connected to your site via an acars device. Thanks for helping me in the right direction. And feel free to give me a virtual slap for slacking on the search skills.

I had the priep issue on v 950 and reported it. I have not upgraded to any of the most recent ones. I think I will wait and see. Also since I upgraded to the 950 from 943, some of the template files get jacked up when I click links. It is like the page that opens is not following any css file at all. They are all white with the site info. I should go and make a quick list of those problem pages.

Yeah Simpilot products are great. I wanted to get a pilot center and Tour module and the old lady was fine with it. BUT, yeah she tossed in a but..... I had a choice between spending money on the VA website, or continue buying stuff for making home brew. I chose the home brew. I can enjoy many home brews while flying the old simulator. But yeah, do look Simpilot up. His work is top notch!

Well I went ahead and edited each and every one of them while I was at it so I did not forget.

Well now I feel like a dork. I was really thinking it was in the registration tpl files. Derr! Thanks. I appreciate the eye opener.

Ironically enough, I did use the search feature and found this thread. I want to edit my template as well. There is a typo in it that needs fixed. And I have searched my files until I was blue in the face and can not find registration_accepted.tpl

Another advantage of them actually going in to the core folder as Simpilot has pointed out is, when airlines switch Templates from time to time to change the look for a bit, there only has to be one screenshots folder. If you have limited disc space on your hosting package it might kind of suck to have 3 or 4 or 5 template folders with the same exact screenshots folder in each one. BUT the way I said to do it is the only way to make it not error. I can see how that would be confusing a bit to a new user, but none the less, it is an easy fix.

How I do mine is I create the event, but in the description of the event, I place a link to a forum post where I put all the details of the event. Keeps the news posts slimmer on the home page if you still use the regular news module.

Ahh then that would be the long awaited answer to that problem with this skin then.

Ok I'll give that a try and see what happens. Thanks!

Houston, we have a problem! Using this code below <?php if(count($pireps) > 0) { foreach ($pireps as $pirep) { $pilotinfo = PilotData::getPilotData($pirep->pilotid); $pilotid = PilotData::getPilotCode($pilotinfo->code, $pilotinfo->pilotid); if($pirep->accepted == '0') $status = '<font color="#0000ff">PENDING</font>'; if($pirep->accepted == '1') $status = '<font color="#00ff00">APPROVED</font>'; else $status = '<font color="#FF0000">REJECTED</font>'; echo '<tr>'; echo '<td><a href="'.SITE_URL.'/index.php/pireps/viewreport/'.$pirep->pirepid.'">'.$pirep->code.$pirep->flightnum.'</a></td>'; echo '<td>'.$pirep->depicao.'</td>'; echo '<td>'.$pirep->arricao.'</td>'; echo '<td>'.$pirep->flighttime.'</td>'; echo '<td>'.$pilotid.' '.$pilotinfo->firstname.' '.$pilotinfo->lastname.'</td>'; echo '<td>'.$status.'</td>'; echo '</tr>'; } } else { echo '<tr><td>There are no recent flights!</td></tr>'; } ?> When a PIREP is submitted it should say pending. For one reason or the other, it is being marked as rejected. If I go in to the admin panel and approve it, it gets marked approved. I can not get it to mark a flight as pending. Thoughts? Concerns? Ideas? Thanks in advance. Ray P.S. This is not all the code that I use for this table. This is just the problem child of it all. I am sure it is simple fix and right under my nose.

Yeah the new plan is a new pilot has 7 days to file his or her first pirep. If nothing is filed within that time, they are deleted. I figure if they make an effort to register then something caught there attention. If they are not feeling the same after registering and do not fly within one week and file with an approved ACARS device, then TOOTLES! Not much of a plan but it keeps a pilots list cleaner looking.

Ahh right on that's cool. I think the original thought behind the transfer charge in Simpilot's module was to give the pilots something to spend their virtual pay on. I'll have to check your module out on a test install I have. It sounds promising so far.

Ok now I have an actual moment that is not blonde related. Sent in a pirep, went to edit the pirep in the admin panel and I get this: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_LNUMBER, expecting ',' or ';' in /home/xxxxxx/public_html/xxxxxx/admin/templates/pirep_edit.tpl on line 127 Here is the line in question <tr><td colspan="2" style="border: none;"><h4>Finances</h4></td></tr>

Yep. Fake registrations really suck. I call them VA whores. They basically go around signing up to VAs so they can go and brag to their buddies about how many VAs they belong to. I got a plan up my sleeve for these guys.

I am willing to bet the screenshots folder went to your core templates folder and not the skins /yourtemplate/folder I had the exact smae problem. Once I moved the screenshots folder from the core to my skin folder all was well. So it should be like root/lib/skins/crystal/screenshots if it is in root/core/templates/screenshots it will give that error. At least it did for me.

Ok guys. I know this one has been rehashed again and again and yet again and many people including me have struck out with fixing this issue.....Until just now. I started removing stuff from the header of my layout.tpl file and putting stuff back in until I no longer got the "No Route Passed" error. Here is what I removed. <!-- jQuery - the core --> <script src="<?php echo SITE_URL?>/lib/skins/brilliancev1/js/jquery.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <script src="<?php echo SITE_URL?>/lib/skins/brilliancev1/js/jquery-1.3.2.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script> Ironically enough, so far everything on site works just fine without it. How is this possible? I know The default Crystal skin does not use it so I figured what the hell and gave it a try and now no more error. I am curious if anyone can shed some light on this one for me. Ray

And why might I be getting this every time I upload a avatar? Is it attempting to tell me my file size was wrong? The name was too long or too short? It was the wrong file type? I think rather then get this error, it should go to an error handling page of some type or give the pilot a reason for the error so he/she knows what to do or what not to do.

DOH!!!!! The one and only place I forgot to look. Thanks for the reminder. After a year and half or so you would figure I would have known that lol. I been digging in waaaaay too many files the last couple days. Maybe time for a break.

Where at can I find the controls for avatar size? I think 80x80 is ok but is a bit restrictive. I was wanting to up the anty a little bit. And then I will get in the tpl file and warn pilots before they upload that it can only be what ever size I choose as max settings. Thanks in advance either way. Ray

Nice! Thanks that worked out pretty good. +1

Oh snap! I forgot I posted this. I suppose I need to work on it to. Thanks for the reply. I appreciate it!
