Switching sites from a backup

[DJDarknez]

OK, got that all sorted out. Now I just have to revert everything back to stock form and get rid of extraneous tables and templates. Thanks!

[DJDarknez]

OK, that did work. I was able to get to tools.php and change the cookie domain. The old 3.7.3 files I had must have gotten corrupted somehow. The latest version I was able to download was 3.6.8, which...

[DJDarknez]

Right, sorry, that would help.

Upon trying to log in to the AdminCP: it will accept the UID and PW, but will send me right back to the ACP login screen. Trying to get to tools.php (when...

[DJDarknez]

edit: and now it stopped working. rats.

edit2: ok, now it's working again. can't get into admincp or tools.php though.

[DJDarknez]

Also a blank page. Possible to change via phpmyadmin?

Edit: I just realized I'm on 3.7.3, not 3.8.

[DJDarknez]

Ah ha! I thought I had read that Blank Pages doc thoroughly, but not enough. It seems to be a hook problem.

On to the next problem. I can sort of log in. I enter my UID and PW, it accepts...

[DJDarknez]

For all I know, this isn't even possible, but I'm giving it a shot.

A few years ago I shut down my 3.8 site just because I was bored with it. Well, I decided I'm bored again and I want to...

[DJDarknez]

Well, everyone look at the dumbass (me)

I was entering in the license number when it should have been the customer number

[DJDarknez]

Trying to install 3.6.8, but it won't go past the step where I enter the license number. I click "next step" but all it does it reload the page.

I know the license (owned) is...

You guys realize that the staff at vBulletin are not your personal programmers, right? Calling things a "MUST HAVE" vs. making it a request is a little cheeky.

[DJDarknez]

How about an option that you can add in a width value for the quote tag? For instance, with tables, it's "td width=x", could the same thing somehow be done with the quote box? Sometimes, if...

[DJDarknez]

Awwwwwwwwwwww. Oh well, I tried

[DJDarknez]

Not neccesarily be default. What I had in mind is that they should be a fluid width, but dependent on the widest avatar (or name).

For instance, in the attachement, posts 1 and 4 have a...

[DJDarknez]

Yes and no. What I had envisioned is more dependant on the avatar width than the overall postbit width. I'll have to get Photoshop re-installed, I just put a fresh install of Winders on my machine.

[DJDarknez]

I had the same thought going, but more for the avatars. Of course, you can change the size of the avatars that users can have. So...

So, let's say that you've got it set for 200x200. ...

[DJDarknez]

Check your new users carefully. Especially if your running a hack or two. I had a new user pop up, and upon checking this user info, he had somehow weaseled himself into the Administrators usergroup....

[DJDarknez]

Hard to abuse a law that doesn't exist....

[DJDarknez]

I'm trying to picture Evanston as a "borough" ( can't use off-site smilies)

[DJDarknez]

324 1/3rd

[DJDarknez]

Major PITA! I've done it twice thus far. Fortunately I've got a fairly small site, that makes things easier.
