Locking a category vB 5.6.4

[dbahn]

Thanks much! That was easy once you pointed me in the right direction.

I had to upgrade from a vb 3 version to vb5, and paid for the installation, which was WAY beyond me. While I don't really like the newer version it generally works for my limited needs. One thing I'd...

Thanks. I'm going to need to do a little bookwork to upgrade without screwing it up. Got a good tutorial to use????

I am not able to post links or hyperlink text on replies on my site (woodenpropeller.com/forumvb). I recently had a series of "internal server error" messages and my webhost suggestied upgraded...

So I still can't figure this out. I've tried different email addresses, and I've re-allowed registration then had my wife register. That shows up on the "Users awaiting email confirmation"...

Good question. I'm a self-taught rookie at most computer related tasks, so when the the last version of php was no longer supported by my webhost I paid the service fee to have the newer version installed....

I've gotten so tired of spambots on my small, informational forum (3.8.9 beta 3), that I'm trying to just do away with user registration altogether. (There has been a HUGE increase in fake registrations...

[dbahn]

Is there a way to do this by phone? My site has been down for weeks now since the upgrade, and every exchange of information is a 48 hour process through the ticket system. When I try to work on it...

My webhost no longer supported php 5.2, so I had to upgrade vBulletin to 3.8.9. To avoid problems I couldn't solve, I paid for the professional installation, and was told that the forum should be fine...

[dbahn]

I'd like to send a mass mailing to all registered users on my forum that have posted at least once since registering. I have a number of members who registered via bots when it was a phpBB forum and...

Well, if you don't mind entering a username and password, the site is the Purpleboard, and you can use:

username: Alton Bay Guest

If you can figure it...

As a user on another vBulletin site, I've noticed that the viewpost icon on quoted posts within a thread doesn't link back to that post. On the main page, however, it links normally to the last post...
