Kiwi Biker upgrade to vB4 Suite.

Over 6 hours. That's gotta be the longest an upgrade has taken.

This upgrade is a work in progress, as there is still much to do. I have modified the code for my Trader, Calendar, Event Attendance, Image Browser & Censor mods to work with the new software, but have still to do the following:

Quote Notification
avatar/profile pic censoring
Profile Rep Stats
Fallen Bikers page
JavaChat Integration
Force Style for Selected Users or Groups
PM Reply to all
Flame Warrior

Mods awaiting an update
Advanced Forum Statistics
Social Group Calendars
v3 Arcade
vBTubePRO
KB Spy
Wiki single login

The old Dark Zone style is not compatible with the new version. As soon as I find a dark style I like, I will add it to the site.

All your images from Blogs, Social Groups, Albums and Posts are now in a central pool which is controlled via an enhanced attachment uploading window. You may need to enable it your settings.

Image censoring has also changed. Now all iffy images need to be in a folder called "pr0n". You can have as many pr0n folders as you like anywhere in the folder tree. Again you may need to enable enhanced attachment uploading in your settings. So yes, you will now need to go through all your images and drag & drop all the naughty ones into a pr0n folder.

Until I've sorted the Wiki single login, you will need to login to the Wiki seperatly using your KB login name. New Wiki accounts have also been disabled. If you have content to add to the Wiki and don't have a login, let me know.

It will be several weeks before I've finished coding and sorting the new look.

Anything not working as it should, let me know here.

Reputation - on the former site ongoing blings appeared below my page of Subscriptions. Now they have disappeared but where to? I did find a reference to User CP in the FAQ section but I don't have a User CP button. I assume this means User Settings.

Settings - top right of page.

The middle click under the wheel usually does the same thing.

Or CTRL+LEFT CLICK. I prefer middle click though.

good luck

EDIT: ok, must've captured the wrong page..... the buttons "next close last" were all wrong...

EDIT: actually, they ARE wrong

motorbyclist - 12th January 2010, 21:24
ok, got it again, this time it even says "vote now"

every picture had a different random selection of buttons.... probably a typo in some related code somewhere...

I have noticed that when I log on to KB at work the little green arrow that shows you have posted in a particular thread does not show on all threads that I have posted in. As soon as I log in at home it does....

Could it be something to do with the IT set up at work? Im not worried about it just interested in why?

When I first click the star to give bling, I get a "Line 14: Member not found" error popping up.

(I have my I.E. set to NOT hide JavaScript errors).

A second click on the star works fine and the bling appears to work.

Spank,
Something else I came accross is when the calender is first viewed the tabs to choose year, month, week or day view aren't seen untill I click either the forward or back a week arrow, then it becomes vissable.

Any chance the year, month, week or day tabs can be their from the first view?
Cheers

I need to remove those arrows from the initial view. vB software has a default calendar which is the one that gets viewed when first entering the calendar. I have modified it to show events from all calendar first, make users pick which calendar they want before adding an event. The mod for this version needs some more work.

spankme, would it be possible to reinstate the calendar entry for february 13-14 for BFTP social group, or at least send it to me as a PM?
it's quite comprehensive and i can't remember all the details that were in it and we need this asap.

cheers and thanks for all your work

Ok cannot get the search to work for me so going to ask, Is KB Spy coming back or is it back already and I can not find? Please do tell.

Opera still keeps crashing on me when I open the settings page (only sometimes, bout 50%), sometimes a couple of time in a row too. Anyone else having this problem? any idea on what I can do to fix it? I'm using the latest version of Opera so cant just update.
