I will now need to go back according to this,
folders need to be chmodded 777, all files 666.
I did not change the custom folder but did all of the portal_box_php files to 777

re ran the permission check and all is fine now,

but if the php files are to be at 666 i will need to go back and redo them.

So permissions were changed on the server at some point.

Looks like you have it sorted now.

Yes they were, and this is how,
I moved the files with FTP to my pc and then reloaded them back on the server. the transfer must have auto changed them.

Forum Settings : Custom Inserts : Custom island insert.

Its a drop list so you can choose your custom island from a drop box.

OK I checked each one and all are good to go.
How this started was yesterday I put bad code in and got an error upon trying to save the file so i eminently reversed the back to good code and it saved.

Then I noticed that none of the custom were showing in between threads.

I can make them show anywhere else on the site just not between the post.

Ok Sundance

If there still not showing in the drop box.

1. Check permissions again via the control panel "Permissions Check"
2. Regardless if you allow certain groups to see or not see the ads they should still appear in the drop box your attempting show them.
3. I dont have <?php php?> tags in my custom island code.
4. when you get the islands to show in the drop box then think about who you want to show them too.
5. Modify the permissions for "View Ads" this is the section between 1st n second posts.

I'm over in the UK its 22:22 and i have a love life lol
I'm sure one of the others will guide you.

An After thought ?
Go to custom island 1
Take the code out and replace with

PHP Code
/* PHP CODE HERE, IF NECESSARY */

/* DO NOT CHANGE THE LINE BELOW */
$body = <<<EOF

Hello I am a Test

EOF;
/* DO NOT CHANGE THE LINE ABOVE */ 

6. Check your drop boxes again.

Thats it for now.
What ever it is, its an oversight and can be fixed with the attention to detail.
Its something stupid now.

I'm using chrome.
But do you have 20,00000 tabs open lol

close chrome and start with no tabs.


its happened to me in the past with firefox but don't open many tabs in IE so it just works.

When strange things happen close all tabs.

Mark,
just an FYI, the only window I had open in chrome was our site, and this site for the support, so I am guessing this UBB version was conflicting with our older version and took control or something like that. As soon as I closed chrome here it started to load on my side.

That was a fun one!

I put chrome to the test to see if the UBB was the causing it and found this,

I cleared all my cache/browsing in chrome and rebooted pc, upon re entering the site I can see the custom island, after I make one change to any of the islands they all go away. In IE not so, I can still see them just fine. Chrome, oh boy this is a new one for me.

Chrome has never given that much trouble as its my browser of choice.
But Since i had a crazy experience with Firefox a few years ago, it go me checking in other browsers, before i admit my self to the local nut house.

You may want to consider re-installing chrome or making sure your on the latest update.

Gald you got there in the end.

Let me back step a little bit.
First If you found that file permissions failed in the ubb control panel.
The very first item is to make sure they all are correct now.
And pass.
Second because you had bad file permissions I would open the ubb control panel and select the clear cache option, but don't submit yet.
Then use your ftp program and navigate to the cache folder(not custom builders)
and delete all the files except for the html files.
Then switch back to the ubb control panel and run the clear cache.
That will force all the cache files to be rebuilt as well as knowing that all of them were.
The cache folder holds all of your island scripts and if some are out of sync they won't update correctly after you make changes to them.
