Hello all.
This is a very old Mod that I still use on my site. I have tried to reach the original author but have had no luck. It appears this will not function anymore (for me to admin) because of the changes in the code since Oct 2000 when this was published. It has survived all my upgrades and still reaches in and displays data on my main page at http://www.anotherwin95.com. I however, can not get into admin mode to change any variables.
My reason for posting this is to ask if anyone can take this mod and bring it up to speed with the current Snitz Code? I have no skills in the ASP arena beyond modding the code as instructed so need the help of all you folks to get this working again.
The zip file is located at http://www.anotherwin95.com/slash.zip
If this is not appropriate to do (posting someone elses code) then please just let me know and I will take it down.
Thanks. |

could you give me a link where i can see for myself? maybe you could even email me a login so i can set some options on the admin pages?
if not, then i understand, but it will be very hard to speed up this coding issue... |

Crash,
I removed the pages after I saw they did not work - I do not have a test forum unfortunately. So currently it is down and not being used. Thanks for the try though. |

well, it will be very hard to solve your problem then, as you can't tell me how you link to those slash pages...
if you want to give it another try, let me know. |

It may be similar - this script will place your choice of 3 or 5 of the most recently made posts on your main page of the site (outside the forum folder). For an example check out my sites main page (not the forum).

i too still use this mod on my site. i upgraded it a little - now using GetRows to get the data from the database which speeds up that mod...
anyway, this mod's one of my favourites! |

Wow... that's a really old mod.. sorry.. but let me see if my memory works.. specially since I drop ASP coding and took JAVA programming.. the problem might be tat some change took in the authentication schema so if the admin page shows you only a blank page you need to replace this line in slash_admin.asp: [beware that this would allow to anyone to use this page, so after you do your changes, I recommend to put it the way it was]
set my_Conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
my_Conn.Open strConnString
mLev = cint(ChkUser2(Request.Cookies(strCookieURL & "User")("Name"), Request.Cookies(strCookieURL & "User")("Pword")))
for:
set my_Conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
my_Conn.Open strConnString
mLev = 4
I hope that helps |

Glad to see you around, animedj!
I have a few of your older MODs, but couldn't locate you to say thanks for the help!
Have a happy new year!

Animedj,
That works perfectly. Now I am able to update the numbers on the main page. Still works like a champ!
