Upload/download What's New module into CMPS

[LenBackus]

I got it over there but when I placed it on a page and went to that page I got a fatal error.

But I am making great progress!

[Brian]

What exactly was the error?

Pretty silly of me not to include this in the post.

Fatal error: Call to undefined function fetch_entrybit_fields() in /home/lbackus/public_html/longrangehunting/forums/modules/dyna_newrand.php on line 67

Did you also upload the plugins that were attached in the thread with that module?

[LenBackus]

No, where are they and what are they called? In the upload dialog box I see no provision for that. How do I do it, where do I put them.

First attachment there. Just download the file and then upload it through the 'Download / Upload Plugins' link in your Admin CP.

[LenBackus]

New error message after uploading the file called:
plugins_cmps_dynamics_module.xml

which is the first one as you mentioned.

Warning: in_array() [function.in-array]: Wrong datatype for second argument in /includes/vba_dyna_functions.php on line 1278


Just above you talk about only downloading one of the two attachments. I had not previously uploaded the other one. (Only the Dynamics-included one) Did you think I had? I uploaded the one that came with Dynamics. I now know you may have thought I already knew of the existence of this one when you answered above.

If this is the problem, do I need to first delete the Dynamics-included one before I upload the one in the thread you refer to above?

[Brian]

Yes, you will need to delete the module that you added using the dyna_newrand.php file and use the module from the thread I linked you to instead.

I am back from vacation. I am still struggling with this. I deleted the file mentioned. I put the whatsnew.module file (from the other thread) into the forums/modules folder and then got an error message:

Warning: in_array() [function.in-array]: Wrong datatype for second argument in /includes/vba_dyna_functions.php on line 1278


Please tell me again in detail which files go where. I am not sure of the file names and the names of the folders where they belong. Same thing with the name and location of the file I am supposed to remove. Sorry for being so needy.

[Brian]

It sounds like you didn't upload the 'cmps_dynamics_module_plugins.xml' file that's attached with that thread.

[LenBackus]

There's several ways to upload and also places to upload to. Where and how please.Database error in vBulletin 3.6.8:

The instructions are located in the thread where you downloaded the module from.

Now, go to the 'Download Upload Plugins' link in your Admin CP. Note that if you have installed a previous version of this module, you will need to delete the following plugins before proceeding:
vBa Dynamics CMPS Module (globalize $vba_dyna class)
vBa Dynamics CMPS Module (load $vba_dyna class)
vBa Dynamics CMPS Module (Special Templates)

Upload the 'cmps_dynamics_module_plugins.xml' file that you just downloaded from this thread.

[LenBackus]

Thanks, I did that just now. I get the same error.

[Brian]

I'm not really sure how you would get that erorr if the plugins were uploaded, but if you would like to submit a support ticket I'll be glad to take a look at things for you.
