So you want a customised version of WWF for which you have no coding skills to achieve?  The major downside of this is that when/if a new version of WWF comes out you will probably have to redo all this again ... and again be at the whim of someone else helping. 

My personal recommendation is either learn some ASP programming skills or stick with the "vanilla" version of WWF.

Just my 2c ... no offence intended.

Well, the rude response from Maddog is no surprise...pretty much par for the course.  I've watched him flame people for quite some time.  Pretty petty person...whatever.  I don't use his mods and won't. 

kiwi, the only question I've tried to phrase is that although I know SOME asp, not nearly as much as others.  The part of the code in question is pretty deep...for even, yes, imagine that, a novice.  Simply put, I'm not certain how much of the code to cut paste.  That was my question, looking for guidance.

I'm fine, just weary of reading your continuous slams on people who, god forbid, download the product, register it and want to tweak it. 

Sorry we all can not be as brilliant as you.

Yea .. I guess we all have bad days.

From reading most of the posts here you will also see that the large body of people who "want" customisation have little to no HTML coding skills let along basic ASP.  Pesonally that is a dangerous area, for it suggests a large body of people want all the fruit, but have no skills to achieve that.

Such a situation will result in

  • They apply a MOD which achieves result A
  • They then want MOD B which when applied, resets MOD A. 
  • This will carry on infinitum adn made worse when a new version is released which resets them all

All the above is very easy to say when you are in a position where you can modify WFF to the nth degree to fit your own requirements.  BUt for some, and maybe MadDog is one, there can easily be a resentment to those who only/always want things for free ie free hosting, free coding support, free MODs ... especially when this is what we do to make a living.

Just my 2c and sorry if I cause offence.

Kiwi

I've paid for my software and in the other applications I've purchased, paid developers for enhancements.  This isnt a matter of me begging for something for nothing.  I'm doing the same others have done...ask if its possible, some say Yes...but wont say how.

Now if you want to show me the code snippet i need to cut/paste, then great!  If you want to defend Mad Dog..its falling on deaf ears.  He made the effort to be a jerk, regardless. 

If frustrating Borg's customers makes you all happy inside, well yay you
