Hi~
i just installed this GREAT mod, everything seem fine except...
on the end of a topic view.. this error message:
Microsoft VBScript runtime ERROR '800a000d'
Type mismatch: 'getNewsFlashTopicBar'
/doramoon/forum/topic.asp, line1020
coz i have the Poll MOD installed already, so when i edit the topic.asp, i'm REALLY not sure i replace the code in right place...
could someone also the same problem tell me how to edit this file correctly? thx.
and about the plentiful functions of this MOD, i think it should take me some more time to get it.... 
thank vesse creating this great work !

Sorry bout the bug, a bit of an oversite in the readme files (now corrected). Here is the section of nfreadme.txt that was missing, this refers to editing topic.asp:
After this line:
<!--#INCLUDE FILE="inc_moderation.asp" -->
Add this line:
<!--#include file="inc_newsflash_topicbar.asp"-->
That should get the MOD working fine, sorry!

thx, vesse. now this problem is solved. :-P
but in actually, i can't understand what the function getNewsFlashTopicBar meaning on earth?
it just show how many unread news alerts about the "TOPIC POSTER", not about the "Topic Viewer" or "USER". right !?
and a little new problems found :
1. when i log out (i.e. not member login), the defaul.asp page seem no more load correctly.
the error message indicate something like "BOF or EOF is true....." in inc_function.asp.
2. the edited footer in alert message, seem not show correctly for me.
always the "Invalid use of Null: 'Replace' " error in inc_function.asp occurred,
then i must change the line201 in newsflash.asp to show it.
" " & FormatStr(ChkString(rsNF("N_EDITED"), "message")) & vbcrlf & _
to
" " & FormatStr(ChkString(rsNF("N_EDITED"), "display")) & vbcrlf & _
but still have some problem with this.
btw, i must say it's maybe just my own problem.. coz i have a heavily modified inc_function.asp file..... not really the bug of this FlashNews MOD.

The getNewsFlashTopicBar function calculates the number of unread Alerts for the poster of the topic and the poster's of any replies to that topic.
The problem with changing the chkString call type to display is that forum code will not be processed and displayed correctly. I can't seem to find the source of the replace error you were getting.
The logout bug occurs when you have set NewsFlash View to everyone. The source of the problem is actually in a forum function and not one of the NewsFlash functions. You can fix this problem by editing the following line in the function getMemberID:
Change:
getMemberID = rsGetMemberID("MEMBER_ID")
To:
if not rsGetMemberID.eof then
getMemberID = rsGetMemberID("MEMBER_ID")
else
getMemberID = "0"
end if

Ok i think i solved this problem :
What i did is i pasted the lines between Forumtype and ForumID
around line 81.
It now seems to work , only now i wonder how to get the the newsflash table in the forum in stead off floating above it ??
well you never know i might figure it out and post it. |
