Does this install mods or something? I can't tell how it would. It seems like it's just a listing service...

That is basically what it is, althought it contains links to setup and/or admin scripts, this way it is easier to write mods without having to change as much snitz code than would otherwise be necesary. It just makes things a little easier to integrate, and helps you keep track of ehat mods you have installed.

Hi animedj,
I think the concept for this mod is great. I hope mods writer will follow the convention provided in this mod commander when they're designing new mods. Although I haven't seen people creating .mod files or adding .txt readme to thier mods yet.
Here are my comments about this mod.
In readme.asp I needed to take out <!--#INCLUDE FILE="../config.asp" --> because since this file is in a sub directory, the database connection string becomes wrong when using server.mappath and the server-side include stated. What result is the config.asp will think their is a database error and redirect to setup.asp which is not good. Simple fix was just to remove that config.asp include in readme.asp.
Also ModCMD.txt says this: <BLOCKQUOTE id=quote><font size=1 face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote> Mod Commander for Snitz Forums 2000 V3.0 Final by Johann Reyes bugs, suggestions, etc to webmaster@animedj.com ver 1.05 - october 30, 2000 <hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote></font id=quote><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" size=2 id=quote>
Isn't it version 1.1 now? Furthermore, I tried this mod on snitz 3.1 sr2 fresh install and it worked fine.
Keep the mods coming <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>.

Hi animedj,
I just tried to install your outofservice mod to see how it works with this mod and I see an overall problem with installing mods in a "mods" directory and using server.mappath in my connection. Config.asp will redirect the down.asp page in the outofservice mod to setup.asp because the connection string is wrong.
I can only think of using absolute path for my database or either introduce a new variable into config.asp to fix this base href problem. Any ideas or help on this?

ahh...kind of understand now your problem... it is your database in the webdirectory like for example cgi-bin?? if it is so you might be using an absolute path for you connection, you are using a relative path.. so you might want to use something like this :
strConnString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & Server.MapPath("/cgi-bin/mySnitzDatabase.mdb")
notice that I don't use any dot for the path.. if you use it like this, doesn't matter from what directory the config.asp file is called, it'll always know that the database it's under root/cgi-bin
Hope this helps

I have used it for a couple of my mods, it obviously depends on the mod, if it is only a few code changes to the forum code then I don't bother, although I suppose just releasing an empty mod file with the instructions may be helpful.

yes that's ok ;) thanks animedj & HuwR
that's begining to get a really nice look :) now
i'm currently working on a specific poll on the left side (i found one that allready exist (pollmentor) .. i think i can start with that basis, but i'd like it to be more integrated inside the snitz looking ... that makes a lot of change in the code ... but that poll has some nice ideas

WOW THAT's NICE !!! |
