I made a new template file. I just need to upload it but like many things it is on the TODO list along with uploading the third gender mod. I intend to make a page where people can download files on how to modify the Advanced Guestbook to various ends such as Email Encryption, Third gender, Email as required field, Remove private message option, Increase input sizes, change the variable names, add Yahoo & MSN fields etc etc. Any othre modifications you can think of?

Your main problem is that you have embedded the guestbook into a CMS that doesn't handle modules the same way as PHP Nuke does. I will look into an alternate method for you when I get chance.

I have an idea but I need to look into it. Did you set module true in config.inc.php?

I need to know how you integrated the guestbook into your site.

The problem lies in the way you have integrated the guestbook into your site. You have HTML being sent to the visitor before the guestbook gets called and so it cannot send the header as the HTML has already been started.

There is a middle ground. Copy all the code you want to appear before the guestbook into header.php, remembering to keep the css and javascript there. And do the same for all the code after putting it into footer.php.

The comments are posting fine. I just made one which you should delete. The problem is that it is not returning you to the guestbook after commenting. I will look into it.

Thought I had that turned off, realize now it can't be through admin.

I didn't turn on email notification and when I finally checked it a year after installation I had a few. You can turn it off by removing the check box from the form.php template. I have actually made this an option in the updated version I am working on.

Sorry I should of changed this thread. The new script is at www.carbonize.co.uk/upgrade.zip I will edit my initial post.

I have had several people contact me about a post they have received on their guestbook. The post says

Erase this message and you will never see it again.

or something similar. This post is just alogical statement and is not a threat. If you delelte the post you will not see the post again as you have deleted it. It's is just a pathetic attempt at psychology to try and sto ppeople deleting the spam entry as it contains a link to their site.

I REPEAT IT IS FINE TO DELETE THIS POST!

Haven't got a clue to be honest as I have never used it as part of a CMS due to my hating CMS's. Anyway did you edit in admin/config.inc.php ? Change it to

This serves little purpose. Email harvesters just ignore robot.txt files. I would also like to point out that Xenu is actually a rather nice program for checking that all the links on your site are valid.
