I just got Vb 2.0. It's pretty ace, indeed.

One problem I noticed: annoucements keep duplicating.

Sometimes it shows up 3 times... sometimes 4 or 5... it's always that same annoucement. Perhaps it all has to do with some feature I overlooked.

On a side note, the AIM links in user posts are empty. What did I do wrong when I uncommented them in the templates?

There has been a fix for this posted. It will most likely be in the next version.

I asked this before so here it is:

In annoucements.php,

WHere



SELECT


Change to



SELECT DISTINCT

What do you mean they're empty? It's not linked to anything?

The AIM links have no value. They appear under the users posts who have AIM, but if you hover over the link in IE, you'll see that they are blank (no value inside the code).

AIM by hand...

aim:goim?screenname=$userinfo[aim]&message=Hello

Not sure where you'd add this; i.e. I don't know where it gets the link from, but that'd be the code, unless you wanna do a pop-up window, which I think is built in somewhere. ;)

Hope this helps :)
