OK, all three sites above have the updated .zip file.
The default OUTBOX preference is set to "double" if the user doesn't already have the preference in their cookie.
I added some instructions around line #51 of pm_view.asp that shows how to change it to either "single" or "none" if you want to.

OK, set this up, made the changes to the pages listed in the pm_readme.txt file, everything looks good, shows up on the main page when a message comes in, but when I click to read, I get this error:
Microsoft VBScript compilation error '800a0400'
Expected statement
/forum/privateread.asp, line 44
<% if strDBNTUserName = "" Then
Any ideas?
Thanks, Paul

OK got the mod installed and all works - I can send and receive PM - however when I try to read them or even call up the options (Preferences) i get a 500 error. I can not view the sent messages in my outbox either.
Can someone point me in the direction of a fix???
Thanks!

Problem has been fixed. Just redownload the .zip file and extract the files again.
Sorry about that... |

When I added the default OUTBOX change this morning, I decided to replace the code that said "You must be logged in to view Private messages" with code to just redirect the user back to default.asp. I just copied and pasted the code to each file but 3 of them had an open <% above where I inserted the code so there was an open <% without a closing %> and that was causing the error you and nwduffer were getting. That's what I get for being in a hurry. |

Can't get the private mod to work, when I install it I get this msg:
Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80040e37'
The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot find the input table or query 'FORUM_PMCATEGORY'. Make sure it exists and that its name is spelled correctly.
/bangthat/forum/default.asp, line 83
What am I (or whatever else) doing wrong?

The only thing I can think of is maybe you forgot to insert the include file correctly.
It should look like this:
end if rs.MoveNext loop end if %> <!--#include file="privatemess.asp"--> <% if strShowStatistics = "1" then WriteStatistics end if %> </table> </td> </tr> <tr>
note the red highlighted tags. Is this how yours looks?
The only other thing is maybe your default.asp file got corrupted somehow.

Hey, I know how you feel...I ran out the door with a button on my shirt (gut-level) undone, and my business partner had to point it out to me at a lunch meeting. Thank goodness for t-shirts!
Thanks for the info, and your contributions.
Paul

If I wanted this to apper just right above my first forum where in default.asp would I put the include line? I tried a bit but keep messing it up somehow.
Matt If everything seems to be going your way, you have obviously overlooked something. |

Matthew,
the privatemess.asp file starts with a starting <tr> and ends with a closing </tr> so you will need to insert it right after a closing </tr> in default.asp. You didn't mention whether you wanted it above or below the table header on default.asp where it says Forum, Topics, Post, etc...
Try inserting it on line #139 of default.asp
133: if (mlev = 4 or mlev = 3) or (lcase(strNoCookies) = "1") then %> 134: <td align=center bgcolor="<% =strHeadCellColor %>"><% PostingOptions() %></td> 135: <% 136: end if 137: %> 138: </tr> 139: <!--#include file="privatemess.asp"--> 140: <% 141: if rs.EOF or rs.BOF then

Thanks Richard that worked. It made the announcement mod go away but thats ok I don't really use it.
I do have one more question. I'm trying to get my events calender to show up right below it. Is that possible? Seems like I would have to edit a private message asp file but not sure.
