Good Morning EC

As you remember, I am running webv4 from my main website. I would like a way for the user to go from webv4 back to the main site after they are finished with synchronet.

Across the top on the header, you have the BBS Name, Home, Forum, Files, More.

What I would like is when they select Valhalla Home Services, that it go back to my main website. Is there a way you could make that selectable for those of us that are running webv4 from another site. Thanks for considering this

When you hover over Valhalla Home Services, you see bbs.valhallabbs/webv4/ where I would like it to be bbs.valhallabbs.com/

The home button is sufficent for the user to return the the webv4 page.

Done. After updating, add a setting to ctrl/modopts.ini -> [web]:

brand_link = /

Or instead of /, whatever URL you want that link to point to.

Works like a charm, thanks so much. I did notice one thing however, after the update, you can't view the files section. I don't think it's related, as it points to the correct area "http://bbs.valhallabbs.com/webv4/?page=002-files.xjs" but all you get is a blank page. I have not upgraded to 2.19, so nothing has changed on my end, and I have been keeping up with the updates on webv4.

Well, that's interesting. Someone else is having the same problem, but I am not experiencing it on my system.

When you say "keeping up with the updates on webv4", does that mean you're updating webv4 but maybe not updating the rest of your BBS at the same time?

DM recently made a change to webv4/lib/files.js which depends on a recent copy of exec/load/filebase.js. If you don't have the latest version of that latter file, this might break things for you.

(Same goes for John Willoughby if he's reading this, and sorry if I got the name wrong.)

I have noticed that files uploaded since the 3.19 upgrade that files received after that are not listed. I wonder if webv4 is using the <=3.18 filebase instead of the => 3.19 filebase?

Yes, that's the case. I'll turn my attention to updating the Files page in the next couple of weeks.

I sometimes forget to do that :( I try to keep up with it, but sometime I just forget.

DM recently made a change to webv4/lib/files.js which depends on a recent copy of exec/load/filebase.js. If you don't have the latest version of that latter file, this might break things for you.

I think that was it. I installed Binkit this weekend, and upgraded the js files it uses, one being filebase.js. I just checked the js files that filebase.js looks for, and I noticed I haden't updated filesize.js. Now that I have done that, webv4 is back working. While I was at it, I re downloaded files.js, auth.js. and request.js to to be sure I hit all areas fresh.

Everything is good now, Thanks

Yes, that's precisely what's happening. :-)
