well... i am not familiar with the slash mod as a separate mod, but it should be in the DBS file. see if you find any instances of
[CREATE]
MODS

in the DBS file

I have read the set up file about 20 times and I still dont get it. It says to:

As always you need to unzip the files in the forum directory, with paths enabled

But how do you get the paths enabled?

I guess I am still at square one still. I have uploaded all the files
but as in my first post I cant run the admin mod setup. Does anybody know of a detailed setup file? Am I the only one with this problem?

I did but I'm sorry the best I can hope for is to follow instuctions. I dont know the code. I would like to learn when I get more time.

I'm not sure where to look for

[CREATE]
MODS
in the DBS file

This DBS file I have are :

dbs_language.dbs
dbs_mods_new.dbs
dbs_slash_mod.dbs

But I cant edit them to see if there is "Create Mods" in them

Sorry for being such a newbie

i don't blame noone here. i just asked a question.

when you right click the dbs file named dbs_mods_new.dbs and open it with notepad you should be able to look inside it.

tell me if there are these lines:
[CREATE]
MODS

Yes it reads:

MOD Table - New Installation
[CREATE]
MODS

M_NAME#varchar(50)##
M_CODE#varchar(50)##
M_VALUE#MEMO##
[END]



Do I have to change these?

Funinbc,

I have found an old copy of the Slash Mod (both 3.0 alpha and 3.10) and see you need to run the file mods_new.dbs or dbs_mods_new.dbs (depending on the version) first. You then need to run the update, slash_mod.dbs or dbs_slash_mod.dbs (again depending on the version). I have listed the contents of both files here for you.

First file: mods_new.dbs

MOD Table - New Installation
[CREATE]
MODS

M_NAME#varchar(50)##
M_CODE#varchar(50)##
M_VALUE#MEMO##
[END]

Second file: slash_mod.dbs

Slash Mod ver3.00 SR1
[ALTER]
MODS
ALTER#M_NAME#varchar(50)###
ALTER#M_CODE#varchar(50)###
ALTER#M_VALUE#MEMO###
[END]
[DELETE]
MODS
M_NAME = 'slash'
[END]
[INSERT]
MODS
(M_NAME,M_CODE,M_VALUE)#('slash','config','enx01050002000')
[END]

I just tried them and they worked on an old system, so give em a go and they should be right.

I have the file but like in my first post I get errors when I run it. I would realy like this mod but there is not really good instructions. I can't figure out what I am doing wrong. I have up loaded the files and ran them. I think it has something to do with the FORUM_MODS but I cant figure it out. Can anyone offer some more suggestions? Thanks in advance

Funinbc,

Do you have the following fields in your FORUM_MODS table in your database?



It is just these fields are required for the Slash Mod to work. If not, I suggest you add them to your DB. Also when you uploaded your files to your site, did you include the admin_mod_dbsetup.asp file and use that? It is I remember a while ago someone saying that you need to use the one that came with it.

All else fails, you may need to remove all the DB entries for the Slash mod and re-run the dbs files.

Ok I have found the two files and have ran them. I then put the
<!-- #INCLUDE VIRTUAL="/forums/config.asp" -->
<!-- #INCLUDE VIRTUAL="/forums/inc_functions.asp" -->
<!-- #INCLUDE VIRTUAL="/forums/slash.asp" -->

at the top of the page and <%= slash() %> where I what the post to apear.

It still does not work. It says that it can not find my config.asp. I checked and I do have a config.asp in this directory

What am I missing??

Funinbc,

You actually need to add them like this;

<!-- #INCLUDE VIRTUAL="/forum/config.asp" -->
<!-- #INCLUDE VIRTUAL="/forum/inc_functions.asp" -->
<!-- #INCLUDE VIRTUAL="/forum/slash.asp" -->

You will notice that there is no s in the forums part...

This is the error I get when I run the MOD setup:

Updating Forum Values..
DELETE FROM FORUM_MODS WHERE M_NAME = 'slash'
13 | Type mismatch

When I go to: slash_admin.asp, I get the form buy I noticed the Language element has no selectible options. Also, when I submit the form I get this error "Couldn't load the config for SlashMod"

I then look at my DB and I do not see the list of items ClassicMotorcycling listed. What do I do?
