But i found one big problem!! When i post an announcement in a private forum other people can read them! You don't have to log-in you just have to know the link of the announcement.
Is it possible to make the announcement follow the settings of the forum? When the forum is private so is the announcement?
You have run the dbs file more then once. This don't have to be a problem. The mod should work.
Right, well I'm sure I did only run it once. Even though, it simply didn't work, even though it says the table is there on the forum, it simply isn't as I had a look using SQL Query Analyzer and the table is simply not there... it failed to add it, so i'm adding it manually... and then seeing if the mod will work...
I think you have a problem with date/time when the announcement is supposed to start. It closes down i guess because the current date/time is prior to the set start date/time. I had the exact same problem but fixed it by choosing an earlier start date (e.g. 1 day) than the default date/time. In my case I believe this is because there is a 6 hour time difference between local time (i.e. that on my computer clock in europe) and server time in US . I'm just guessing on this, though. This might be why Lim could not get it to work first and then suddenly it worked
Maybe the mod uses server time and not time adjusted with the strTimeAdjust parameter from table config_new? just a thought... maybe the author of this script could check on this
