Group Rank Hack Install problem!

Wondering why that MOD you have won't install correctly? Let's take a look

Group Rank Hack - **Now installs thanks to Nightrider**

Post by Ornette »

Blimey!

I followed this thread from start to finish now, and am ecstatic to confirm that Group Rank Hack 1.0.3 works correctly with phpBB 2.0.23 (*link - EM file here: viewtopic.php?p=166835)


The last time I tried, I followed the posts from Tue Dec 05, 2006 9:05 am to
Wed Dec 06, 2006 8:14 am
where by I got completely thrown at that step by the suggested alteration.

Anyhow, this time I read right through to the end, and lo - Nightrider's posted EM script for this at
Thu Jan 18, 2007 8:04 am has just installed perfectly!


20 pages of IM style banter... And large sections of it, all mostly from within one week, completely off topic!!


Well, what can I say! but:

Ahh I could point out that your EM verision of Attachment MOD hasn't worked properly, but that probably deserves another thread. ;)

your lines says

Code: Select all

112      $rank_is_not_special = (// BEGIN Group Rank Hack
113      $sql = "SELECT group_id, group_name
But it should be

Code: Select all

112      $rank_is_not_special = (
113              // BEGIN Group Rank Hack
114             $sql = "SELECT group_id, group_name
And so on .... you pasted the lines right after the ( but you should have started on a new line ;)
