I have forgotten my password for the admin area. I know the username but no the pw. How do I rest it or fix this? Thanks

My mistake - there is a field for the pw, but the user is never prompted for one. It just allows anyone to post comments. Again - Any ideas?

Mahalo!

Hello - When selecting the "comment password" setting for Advanced Guestbook, there is no area for me to enter a password, and the user is never prompted for a password.

I'm running AG 2.2

Any ideas ?

Thx - joe

Unfortunatly, it's really not that simpel to add another part to the form.
First, you have to add a field called i.e. band to the book_data-table in the gb-database.

Then you can start your experiment.

Good luck

there is no documentation. This guestbook is designed for someone that already knows how to install mysql databases and file permissions.

you best bet is to look through the forum.

you will find all the questions to your answers in here......just don't expect a quick reply to questions that you post though

I just simply added new fields to my guestbook. Of course they work

I added 3 fields. Yahoo IM, MSN IM and graduation year field

but using the homepage field is not wise, because it converts it to an src img link with the home page icon.

just add a new field and turn off the homepage link if you don't want to allow people to add home page links

if u gettin these errors try this:
do the CHMOD 755 or similer to all your files in your poll folder , well it worked for me and it got rid of the errors so if all else fails try it...

Took me a long time to figure this sucker out. If you get the problem about adding header make sure this is before 1st <html> tag:
<?php
/* Include this before your html code */
include "./poll_cookie.php"; (------this has to be the path to the actual cookie creating php script)
?>

and it has to be at very top no spaces at all before it

I had just 1 space before the <?php and it kept giving me a smimilar message to this:
Warning: Cannot add header information - headers already sent by (output started at /usr/home/warzoneonline/public_html/index.php:7) in /usr/home/warzoneonline/public_html/poll/poll_cookie.php on line 22

gotta get rid of that and it should work for you. My poll would work, it just gave the warning at top of page after a vote but if you closed the window and reopened the page it was fine. Its just when it writes the cookie i suppose. Well hope this info saves someone from a few hours of head banging that i had to go threw

might be possible.. I just use the texfile one and you dont have to worry about it :o . I'm still new to php so not sure how secure it is. Thats why i use all text file database scripts. And yes get rid of that install.php

Hi all,

Just wanting to know what is going wrong with my guestbook. I have changed the fields for guestbook entries. The one I am having issues with is what was formally the homepage url field. It has been changed to a normal text field so that uses can answer a question with text. What is happening is that when viewing the guestbook their entries don't show up. They only show up if the entry is in the form of a URL. It would seem as thought there is some form of filtering going on somewhere but I don't know where. Can anyone shed light on this for me please?

chmod stat.pl and log.pl to 755 in ur cgi-bin

Could any body help me please to find documentation step by step on "how to install the Advanced Guestbook"?
Being honest I'm a total beginer

and I need something more complete than what I found in readme.txt
Thank you!

look in templates : footer and you will find two lines of code with the link in: remove these two lines.

Hi there!
I tried to run the script of guestbook v1.5 and when I entered all the content and pressed the submit botton, it prompted me with the following error message:

Guestbook - Error
Cannot create ID file guest_id.txt in /var/www/book. Please check your base directory.

The system showed me part of the environment variables as follows:
HTTP_REFERER http://raymondip.no-ip.com:8080/book/addentry.html
REQUEST_URI /cgi-bin/guestbook.pl
SCRIPT_FILENAME /var/www/cgi-bin/guestbook.pl
SCRIPT_NAME /cgi-bin/guestbook.pl

I have put all files (chmod 644 in ascii) in directory "/book" in the directory of "/var/www/book" (chmod 644) and configured the following alias in my httpd.conf (Linux 9.0)
Alias /book "/var/www/book"

What did I miss?

Cheers.
