Getting ready to install the ActiveUser MOD ... a bit apprehensive due to all the pitfalls I see some of you have had ... but will try anyway!
I recently downloaded the MOD, I believe it is labelled v4.0.07. I also have previously installed these MODs: FAQ, Smile Manager 3.3, Snitzy Chat, and HotKey.
My question: In the ActiveUser Read Me, it refers to Snitz v3.3.03. I have upgraded to v3.3.05. Do I need to do anything differently? Or, simply follow the directions as they are?
Thanks.

3.3.05 is esentually the same as 3.3.03
3.3.02 however, has some differences that will prevent the mod from functioning.

After attempting ActiveUsers 4 installation - two problems, that I am so far aware of:
- When attempting to close my forum, clicking on the "Close Forums" icon resulted in a return to my default page. This even though I could plainly see, when placing my mouse cursor over the icon, that the link went to "down.asp." EDITED: Doing some research on this site, I found another reference to this problem back late last year. SOLUTION: Log in as Administrator [which I did], THEN click on Admin Options & LOG IN AGAIN. Then, go back to your forum and close it down. I was able to do that. So, disregard Problem #1. I do need help still with #2! I have posted my complete "langMODS_Ls3kAU4.asp" file below, if that helps.
- After going on with the procedure anyway, I ended up with the following message when attempting to access my forum:
quote: Microsoft VBScript compilation error '800a03ea'
Syntax error
/messageboard/langMODS_Ls3kAU4.asp, line 46
case "1033" 'English ^
Next? I uploaded my backups, so all is well - except that I still can't close the forum - but what changes need I make?

langMODS_Ls3kAU4.asp:
quote: '## SNITZ FORUM 2000 MOD LANGUAGE FILE '## Mod Active Users 4.0 '## Author: Nathan Bales
select case strLangLCID ' case "1030" 'Danish %><!--INCLUDE FILE="LangMODS_Ls3kAU4_1030.asp" --><% case "1033" 'English %><!--#INCLUDE FILE="LangMODS_Ls3kAU4_1033.asp" --><% ' case "1036" 'French %><!--INCLUDE FILE="LangMODS_Ls3kAU4_1036.asp" --><% ' case "1037" 'Hebrew %><!--INCLUDE FILE="LangMODS_Ls3kAU4_1037.asp" --><% ' case "1041" 'Japanese %><!--INCLUDE FILE="LangMODS_Ls3kAU4_1041.asp" --><% ' case "1043" 'Dutch %><!--INCLUDE FILE="LangMODS_Ls3kAU4_1043.asp" --><% ' case "1046" 'Portuguese - Brazil %><!--INCLUDE FILE="LangMODS_Ls3kAU4_1046.asp" --><% ' case "1053" 'Sweedish %><!--INCLUDE FILE="LangMODS_Ls3kAU4_1053.asp" --><% ' case "2070" 'Portuguese - Portugal %><!--INCLUDE FILE="LangMODS_Ls3kAU4_2070.asp" --><% case else %><!--#INCLUDE FILE="LangMODS_Ls3kAU4_1033.asp" --><% end select %>
PS - I HAVE seen the thread at : http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=28986 Same problem, I think ... but I used the editor recommended in the MOD Read Me file. Anyway, see above.

If your only interested in English, then just delete that entire file except <!--#INCLUDE FILE="LangMODS_Ls3kAU4_1033.asp" --> and you should be good. =)

Done ... and with success! Took me a few tries; I have some trouble with the %> & ' thingies - but a little trial & error and it was working fine! Thank you ...
Now, it appears to have led to another little problem:
I have the FAQ Mod installed previously, and was writing up a FAQ on the Active User feature. All was OK until I hit the "Submit" button ...
quote: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80040e10'
[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver]COUNT field incorrect
/messageboard/admin_faq.asp, line 341
Here's the bottom portion of my admin_faq.asp file - line 341 in red:
quote: <a href="JavaScript:openWindow2('pop_icon_legend.asp')"><img src="icon_editor_smilie.gif" width="22" height="22" alt="Insert Smilie" border="0"></a> <% end if %><br></center> <% response.write("<table align=""center"" border=""0"">" & vbcrlf & _ "<tr><td><strong><font face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """ size=""" & strDefaultFontSize & """>Faq Question:</strong></td><td><input type=""text"" name=""fquestion"" maxlength=""100""></font></td></tr>" & _ "<tr><td valign=""top""><strong><font face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """ size=""" & strDefaultFontSize & """>Faq Answer:</strong></font></td><td valign=""top"">" & vbcrlf & _ "<textarea name=""Message"" cols=""35"" rows=""7""></textarea>" &vbcrlf & _ "</td></tr><tr><td colspan=2 align=""right""><input type=""submit"" value="" Submit ""><input type=""reset"" value="" Reset "">" & vbcrlf & _ "</table></form>") ELSE strFormQ = request.form("fquestion") strFormA = request.form("Message") strFormQ = ChkString(strFormQ,"title") strFormA = ChkString(strFormA,"message") strsql = "INSERT INTO " & strTablePrefix & "FAQ (F_FAQ_QUESTION, F_FAQ_ANSWER)" strsql = strsql & " VALUES ('" & strFormQ & "', '" & strFormA & "')" my_conn.execute(strsql) response.write("<p><center>Faq Entry Submitted, <a href=""admin_faq.asp"">Click Here</a> to return to Faq Admin</center><p>") end if %> </font> <% End Select %> <!--#INCLUDE file="inc_footer.asp" --> <% Else %> <% Response.Redirect "admin_login.asp" %> <% End IF %>
What's my next step? Then, I RETIRE Ha Ha!

OK ... but it was working fine before this. Should I move this question to a new topic?
I really don't mean to be a pain in the neck ... just trying to get my forum as I want it.
Rich
EDITED:
Just compared that file above to the original one in the FAQ Mod zip folder ... the lines look identical.
Anyone else ever have a problem with this

I would just replace that file with the one in the mod's zip folder.
Active Users makes no changes that would affect that file.

It didn't even take that, Nathan! After a clean boot of my system, I went back in and tried again. The FAQ MOD worked perfectly this time ... who knows? I should have tried that first!
Anyway, sorry to have asked what turned out to be a trivial, and stupid, question!
Thank you for a great MOD [the Active User] which I now have seamlessly integrated into my forum. All the MODs I have installed are great little add-ons to a great forum system [that being, of course, Snitz Forums] ... Thank you!
