Can BBtoNuke 2.0.11 be installed in Nuke 6.5?

So according to Chatserv's download page for BBtoNuke 2.0.11, "Nuke 7.x and BbtoNuke 2.0.10 are required"

Here's the thing. I'm running a modified (bug-fixed) 6.5 with 2.0.10. Are the changes from .10 to .11 so dramatic that I really need Nuke 7.x?

If I don't hear anything in the next few hours I'll try updating my 6.5 anyway and report back any problems.

I don't believe it is. Just remember to remove the "update_points" statements as they do not work in 6.x

Uh yeah, wow. I hadn't seen that before. What's "update_points" do? Is it just those lines I'd have to remove or is it part of something bigger/more substantial?

I notice the DB structure is modified with this update.. I assume it's not something dependent on a >Nuke 6.5 system.

Other than creating a new bbconfirm table, I don't believe there are changes to the Nuke tables themselves. update_points() is used in phpNuke 7.x to award points to users in user groups - Just search for "update_points" and remove any line that uses it.

I'm running BBtoNuke 2.0.11 on my PHP-Nuke 6.5 powered web site. Seems to work fine!

All I did was remove the 2 lines in 'functions_post.php' that contain 'update_points', plus I retained 'user_id = 1' for 'Anonymous' in the sql db instead of '-1'.

Awesome..

looks like the latest version of 2.0.11 (updated dec 6), he made anonymous 1 anyway... at least, it was unchanged on my version... here are his notes

Looks like it's working for me w/6.5 too Smile

Cool!

Heh! That '-1' will get you every time. I've gotten into the habit of automatically looking for it, whenever I'm working with phpBB.

I don't know if they fixed it yet, but here's another bug... Wink

In '/modules/Forums/profile.php', around line 108

Replace:

Code:

redirect(append_sid("login.$phpEx?redirect=profile.$phpEx&mode=editprofile", true));

With:

Code:

$header_location = ( @preg_match("/Microsoft|WebSTAR|Xitami/", $_SERVER["SERVER_SOFTWARE"]) ) ? "Refresh: 0; URL=" : "Location: ";
header($header_location . append_sid("login.$phpEx?redirect=profile.$phpEx&mode=editprofile", true));
exit;

This prevents guests (or members that aren't logged in) from getting a '404' error when clicking the ''Profile' link in the forums. After you make this change, clicking 'Profile' will take them to the login screen, if they aren't logged in already.

Weird. I was just making the change when I decided to what the bug loooked like. I logged out of my nuke site, then hit "Profile" and it went straight to the account log in screen.

The code looked like this (like 108):

Code:

redirect(append_sid("login.$phpEx?redirect=profile.$phpEx&mode=editprofile", true));

looks the same. Maybe a fix was made somewhere else (?)

Hrm...

They probably fixed it then. I'll download the newest version tonight and see if it works for me too. Wink

Doh! I see what I did...

I typed 'Private Messages' in the post[s] above, instead of 'Profile'. You get a '404' when you click the 'Profile' link, and you're not logged in, not 'Private Messages'. 'PM' works fine - goes to the 'login' screen, like it should...

Sorry about that! I was working on 'breadcrumb' code, all yesterday, and my brain was fried... Cool

Anyway, I'll check out the new version tonight...
