You'll find some useful utility scripts within this post.

Upload to your main folder. It will allow you to check what ban an email matches.

nice, thanks for sharing it...installing now :)

Here is another one that comes in handly. I think Scott had posted this somewhere else already but here it is again. It is used to reset the cookie domain and rebuild the option cache. I have needed these a few times when copying a live board db over to a test site and they are on different domains. This alows you to easily reset the cookie to default and then go into admin control panel and set them to the new site domain.

I'm wondering if either of these Utilities are OK for use with the Gamma Ver? :confused:

I just used the script for resetting the cookies and my latest test gamma install and it worked fine.

I assume this can be set some how to check for IP bannings as well?
If so, how?
This is a nice util, but a IP banning would also be nice.
Also, I have a test user at my sit with user name Doh. I have banned this user, confirmed this user shows as banned in user group manager and yet, I type in user Doh in the utility and it states:
Doh is not banned

Is this utility meant only for emails? If so, it is a shame as this utility can come in handy for all banning checks.

Amazing utilities! Thanks all

Can we request scripts? If not sorry, but I'm in urgent need of one.

Could anyone make a script to change Member IDs?

[Steve Machol]

Best place to ask for this is at vbulletin.org.

This script was a huge saver... THANK YOU!

why have em all in 1 post? bit lame eh?

[Derek Fermstad]

is there some kind of patch to make vbulletin 3.0.3 work on php 5 with mysql 5?

I'm stuck and my download section doesn't seem to let me download a vbulletin version newer than 3.0.3.

I'm fine with either upgrading to a newer vbulletin or some sort of patch... just tell me where I can find either solution.

[Zachery]

You need to renew your license.

[Steve Machol]

There is no patch that can ever make 3.0.3 compatible with PHP 5 and MySQL 5.

ok how do you use this script I uploaded it to my forums folder and run it on my browser and it says: VB_AREA and THIS_SCRIPT must be defined to continue

[peterska2]

These scripts are for 3.0.x and will not work with later versions of vBulletin.

Well I already know that and you didn't answer my inquiry at all...And for the sake of sharing and in case you don't know the solution ...I just defined the script in global.php. Period.

All of these can be found in tools.php, theres no reason to use the attached files here.
