Snitz forum: 3.04.05
Davio's private message: ver. 1.0

I've installed everything (i believe) and the forum works still. But i don't have anything for private messages in admin options. I do have a private messages at the top right after members and right before search. When i click it i go to my forum url.

I'm not sure what info or files to post so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

ok, so while reading more into previous threads i compared my config.asp file to the changes i should have made.

All i did was move the couple of lines that i needed to add to the config file after the poll mod and site integration mod additions.

Now i have the private message link in the admin page, but its right above where is says "Administrative Functions" and its in black?

alright, since i havn't gotten much response to this i decided to start over with a different PM Mod, Private messaging for speedball.

and i still am having a problem...

in the inc_header file i changed this:

' DEM --> End of Code added to show subscriptions if they exist
Response.Write " |" & vbNewline & _
" <a href=""members.asp""" & dWStatus("Current members of these forums...") & " tabindex=""-1""><acronym title=""Current members of these forums..."">Members</acronym></a>" & vbNewline & _
" |" & vbNewline


to this:

' DEM --> End of Code added to show subscriptions if they exist
Response.Write " |" & vbNewline & _
" <a href=""" & strForumURL & "members.asp"" tabindex=""-1""><acronym title=""Current members of these forums...") & " tabindex=""-1""><acronym title=""Current members of these forums..."">Members</acronym></a>" & vbNewline & _
" |" & vbNewline

' DEM --> End of Code added to show subscriptions if they exist
Response.Write " | " & _
"<a href=""" & strForumURL & "members.asp"" tabindex=""-1""><acronym title=""Current members of these forums..."">Members</acronym></a>" & _
" | " & vbNewline
If strPMStatus = "1" then
Response.Write "<a href=""" & strForumURL & "pm_view.asp"" tabindex=""-1""><acronym title=""Check Your Private Messages..."">Private Messages"
if pmcount > 0 then Response.Write "(<b>" & pmcount & "</b>)"
Response.' DEM --> End of Code added to show subscriptions if they exist
Response.Write " | " & _
"<a href=""" & strForumURL & "members.asp"" tabindex=""-1""><acronym title=""Current members of these forums..."">Members</acronym></a>" & _
" | " & _Write "</acronym></a>" & _
" |" & vbNewline
end if
Response.Write "<a href=""search.asp"


like the read me said to do.

i got this error in my browser:

Microsoft VBScript compilation error '800a0401'

Expected end of statement

/testforums/1103/forum/inc_header.asp, line 582

" <a href=""" & strForumURL & "members.asp"" tabindex=""-1""><acronym title=""Current members of these forums...") & " tabindex=""-1""><acronym title=""Current members of these forums..."">Members</acronym></a>" & vbNewline & _
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------^


so i thought, i'll take that parenthisis (sp) out after the "Current members of these forums..."), not sure if thats what i need to do, but it gave me another error that i played with but to no avail.

heres what i got after i removed the ")":

Microsoft VBScript compilation error '800a03f2'

Expected identifier

/testforums/1103/forum/inc_header.asp, line 592

Response.' DEM --> End of Code added to show subscriptions if they exist
---------^


i don't unerstand why this has been so difficult for me, but i REALLY need help, anyone?

thanks for at least reading this..

This line :


 Response.' DEM --> End of Code added to show subscriptions if they exist

Is plain wrong ...

it should be something like :


 Response.XXXXXX
' DEM --> End of Code added to show subscriptions if they exist


You need to find out what XXXXXX should be, but it will probably start with Write and then something after that.

I wouldn't try the speedball version of the mod unless you're running the Speedball version of the forums.

Could the problem in the first post be because you didn't make the required changes to admin_home.asp ? Its a simple link added the the list of stuff on the main admin page.

perhaps that is why i have many more problems?

i did make the changes to the admin_home.asp when i was working with that mod, i remember checking that.

now i have active users 4.0 installed as well by Nathan Bales, not sure if that changes anything?

i did get my problem that lazer pointed out fixed tho:

for my forum version i have found that when asked to replace:

' DEM --> End of Code added to show subscriptions if they exist
Response.Write " |" & vbNewline & _
" <a href=""members.asp""" & dWStatus("Current members of these forums...") & " tabindex=""-1""><acronym title=""Current members of these forums..."">Members</acronym></a>" & vbNewline & _
" |" & vbNewline


instead of replacing it with what the readme says to i have rewritten it to look like this:

' DEM --> End of Code added to show subscriptions if they exist
Response.Write " |" & vbNewline & _
" <a href=""members.asp""" & dWStatus("Current members of these forums...") & " tabindex=""-1""><acronym title=""Current members of these forums..."">Members</acronym></a>" & vbNewline & _
" |" & vbNewline

' DEM --> End of Code added to show subscriptions if they exist
If strPMStatus = "1" then
Response.Write " <a href=""pm_view.asp""" & dWStatus("Check Your Private Messages...") & " tabindex=""-1""><acronym title=""Check Your Private Messages..."">Private Messages</acronym></a>"
if pmcount > 0 then Response.Write "(<b>" & pmcount & "</b>)"

end if
Response.Write " |" & vbNewline & _
" <a href=""search.asp"


its not perfect i'm sure since i hardly know much about this, but it does seem to work so far.

now if i can make the problems that i have work, then i don't see why it would matter that i'm using the speedball version.

First problem to this point:

at my home directory (i think thats what its called?) below my active users table, is a non looking like table that has:

Private Messages
Inbox
klub - You have 0 new private message.

second problem (probably related to the first tho):

if i'm in anything that has to do with the PM's like my inbox, outbox, PM options, etc. there is no visual table, everything is just layout out on my background color.

not sure how i can explain this so i made a dummy member so if you want you could check it out at my site.

laser:

in another topic you directed me to your V8Central forum. What version forum are you running and what PM mod did you use? Obviously it worked just fine for you, i'm just curious why this is so difficult for me.
