integration

[succo]

ok, i've been using vba for a while, and something like 2 weeks ago upgraded to 3.0, because i liked too much the 'locations' stuff :)

so, just to be clear and to the topic, can anyone confirm that both integration methods work? i mean that acp integration works, but file edits still work as they did before?

shouldn't it be like that, i couldn't understand why the photoplog pages (outside forum dir, so impossible to integrate with the files integration stuff, and without 'THIS_SCRIPT', so impossible to integrate with this_script integration stuff) are still vba-wrapped
again, it's much better this way, would anyone ever need any 'conditional' inclusion (i do, and Brian helped me with that)

btw, a little suggestion... wouldn't it be better if the 'modules enabled' stuff read the adv_portal template, to put the locations in the right place, just to be more 'immediate' :)

thanks for the great work, again and again!

I assume by the file edits you mean adding some code like this to the file?
define('VBA_PORTAL', true);
define('VBA_PAGE', 'page_name_here');
If so, then yes, that method should still work as well.

btw, a little suggestion... wouldn't it be better if the 'modules enabled' stuff read the adv_portal template, to put the locations in the right place, just to be more 'immediate' :)
Unfortunately I don't think there's going to be a good way to do that with all of the conditions and other code that people may add to the template to style it.

just to report: integration with forums doesn't work well with vbSEO installed. (VBA 3.0, VBSEO 3.0, VB 3.6.7)

Can you elaborate a little?

Brian, I'm having the same problem mentioned by eden, I've already contacted vbseo support, they're working on it, I've uninstalled vbseo temporarily... so this is the issue basically: I have a module integrated with my forum (/forums/index.php) page, and when I installed vbseo that module suddenly disappeared (actually the whole integration with vba was gone), the strange thing is, the integration does still work for other parts of the forum like showthread for instance, but index.php does nothing :(, any ideas on how to fix this?

[Brian]

Sorry, but I really don't have a clue what would cause that, and with their source code being encrypted, that means that they're usually the only ones that can solve problems like that.
There are 2 things I can suggest trying though...
1). If you used the filename integration method, try going back and entering 'index' in the 'THIS_SCRIPT Integration Method' section instead, follow through to complete the integration, and see if that helps.
2). If you're not already running v3.0 RC2 of the CMPS, try upgrading.

Actually they've just fixed the problem for me, This is what they did:

I've modified vBa CMPS's "init_startup" plugin code:
Found:
case 'index.php':
ADDED BELOW:
case '':
and that worked.

personally I don't know what that does exactly, but I do know it works for me.

That's really not going to be a good solution at all as that plugin will just be overwritten the next time you save your integration settings. Instead of that, try using the 'THIS_SCRIPT Integration Method' instead and just enter 'index' in the space provided.
