General issues

LyubovL posted 1st of May 2008 in . 174 comments.
Hi all! We've noticed some very important questions which you wish to get answers to. Here are the answers in short.

1 We are working hard to ready the upgrade package from Dolphin 6.0005, and it's going to be released next week. Thanks for your patience.

2 For those whose Video Player license doesn't work, please contact us at sales@boonex.com and provide us with the license code. We will help you with this issue.

3 As you know, most parts of the Dolphin script have been re-written, and in most cases modifications, plugins, templates and other items available at Expertzzz for Dolphin 6.0. won't be compatible with the latest Dolphin version. So, be patient and allow some time for our professional experts to update their products. :)

4 The information on how to solve Orca's troubles with the language file can be found here at http://www.boonex.com/trac/cgi-bin/trac_orca.cgi/wiki/OrcaBeta2PostInstall

Good luck!

Thanks alot for the updates! I know we all really appreciate it when were kept closely in the loop with how things are coming along. Keep up the great work as always and Congrats on another awesome Dolphin release!!!

Thanks again,

Tom
Are there any Dolphin programming experts watching? I need some work performed for 6.1, specifically dealing with couples. While re-adding the couples features is a great welcome, it still has MAJOR issues I need solved.
r00t
And now what happens with the Dolphin ad-free licenses? Do the old ones work?
AndreyP
Your ad free licenses will work with the new Dolphin 6.1version just like with the older version.
Your free licenses from Unity will need to be regenerated, or you will always see the "connecting" notice.
annabel
Andrey, I had ad-free licences before but now they are changed into free ones. How do I get my ad-free ones again ?
annabel
Just check on my sites :

Version 6.0004 http://www.onderweg.be

Version 6.1 : http://www.onderweg.be/LEDEN

Both installed with same license numbers.

But when I download the ad-free version of 6.1 my Ray won't work.
annabel
Yes, I already noticed that I cannot use my dutch sql file anymore. I took me days of work to make the translation, now I can start all over again.

Also text on the pictures in the promo block cannot be translated anymore. They're not included in the lang file as before. This sucks ! Now I have two options : find picures myself and put dutch text on it or make changes with Photoshop, which also takes a lot of time.

I've only just begun to install the new version when I came to these 2 changes. see more Don't know what else has been changed. I hope not too much ....
anja46
Hi,
I have the same problem with the dutch sql file, but I asked Andrey P to make it fit for 6.1, I cannot give it to you because I bought it from expertzzz, but maby you can ask Andrey too.
edmond
good luck..i tried to remake my french translation but same problem..if u want contact me here to find together some trick or advice .the only way i fided wa to translate php only..the compil sql still buggy ..
annabel
The only trick is to start all over again. I really don't bother THAT much because now is the opportunity to translate everything correctly. And it's a good excercise for training my English language skills :-)

I'm halfway already, it goes faster then I thought.
hendrikfetishlad
Hi - a quick question - I read somewhere - but cannot find it anymore - that the RMS is new too and needs to be re-installed for the 6.1 version.

Is that true?

Thank you
Hendrik
sammie
still no comments on ip lookup or banning?
AndreyP
There is no IP lookup feature yet, but you can find banning by going to admin > profiles. This FAQ is for general issues and not for specific versions.

Bad bussiness tricks like this just brings down the company repo and bussiness in the long run.

Why does my download not include Classifieds or Blogs? The folders its pointing to do not exist and are not in my download?
robhoski
So far Dolphin has been performing perfectly for me. I hired the installs and the PHP programmers needed to do the work on my site. Cost about $400 total but well worth it. I had taken this dating site package and converted it's functionality into more of a search type site, so there was a lot of work to do on the programming level. My Dolphin site has no dating features left but still retains the social networking features. Perfect for what I needed built. In about a week it should be just the way see more I want it. After that will be the marketing campaign. My question is that I am using the unregistered version and would like to use the ad free version. Will I need to find a new way to host the media files if I buy the ad free license? I understand that Boonex hosts the media for the ad version but not the ad free version. All media is working fine right now so I hate to screw it up. I will ask my programmer too but thought I'd ask here as well.

Dolphin is a Great Package

Hi robhoski
I will like to see your site. I am building a business website and trying to remove all dating features. i think i iwll have somethings to learn from your customization.

Problem with Ray A/V Chat.. 1st error undefined then invalid parameter Now It just says connecting, the boonex Ads are at the bottom but no chat room. Please Help

I have same problem. The others r ok. Orca ad is at the buttom still remaining. If you want add new item to classified you can't do it only one step. I have second lang problem. What is the reason I couldn't find it.
Mindriot
Emailes sales and still no license to view videos. Please take care of this soon.
frigger
don't hold your breath....I emailed them about the same issue three days ago and haven't heard a single thing. I'm going back to the old version. It is easier to modify and I KNOW it works.
frigger
I think this release should have been called RC3...not final. still too many bugs
Mindriot
Man, still no reply either. Talk about frustrating. I am just waiting on the license as the videos actually load. This is a major bummer. I agree this is more of a RC3 release.
way2n
whahaha! this is full of bullshit release!!! wtf is this? many problems! normal when u build a car u do it once and forever not 1000x betas and whatevers
jboyte
In the setup when I
Proceed to Plugins -> Orca from Admin panel

Aramis
Are xslt enabled at your server?
jboyte
Thanks! WHen I enables xslt in php that fixed it perfectly.
mikesta
Is that really true that all the adfree licenses are now having a backlink to boonex?

That means that the linkfree version will only be available when buying the Smart Pro Package??

Hope that this is only a bug otherwise I will have to look at other solutions, because I cant built a professional community with a link to a different homepage.
dBoon
Yes, I agree 110% ...that is essential...I dont think that Boonex would be so foolish as to have adfree not really be what its supposed to be...add free.
way2n
BIG PROBLEM!! WHEN U HAVE ADFREE VERSION U CANNOT DO ANYTHING WHEN U INSTALL THE WIDGET THEN U HAVE A PROBLEM U CANNOT RUN IT BECOUSE NO LICENSE!!
mikesta
If you have a contributor license you are able to run them, but always with that backlink to boonex. :(
jboyte
Install seems to have gone perfectly.
Admin log in and setup went perfectly.
BUT
When I Resister as a member. (I did modify some of the requirement) Everything appears to go perfectly and it says that I joined successfully. BUT when I try to login it creates an ERROR message box saying:
-----------------------------------------
Profile error. Please try again.

Thanks for any and all advice!

Everything I try to do on 6.1 tells me this:

You have manually removed BoonEx footers without paying for the right to. Please, go to BoonEx.com and order the ad free licenses to be able to use your site without BoonEx footers. They will be automatically removed as soon as you register your ad free licenses. Please, put the __boonex_footers__ key back into Dolphin template.

I have the ad-free versions! Can someone please tell me how to get rid of these!!! If I need to regenerate my licenses see more how do I go about doing that?
Thanks
AndreyP
If you have ad-free version just register your version (if you register Dolphin - dolphin element disappear from here, after register all widgets of Ray - ray icon disappear, orca same )
so you don`t need to change HTML files, it all automatically now
So seems that you change it manually (possible delete this key)
so our protection works here ;)

I am trying to log into ray through admin, but nothing is happening. Anyone knows the problem that can help? Thanks!

MAJOR ERROR !!

I built a whole new language file and put it on the server.

As soon as I change something in the builders section of admin panel, my language file vanishes and turns back to English. Even though the standard language is set to Dutch, I can't switch it anymore until I redo the changes.

This is one big problem !!
AndreyP
Describe way how you create new language file? during admin?
annabel
Dutch language file is a copy of the english version.
I'm creating it in admin panel as it is described in the docs.
Everything works fine until I change something in admin panel. Then the Dutch lang file is overwritten with the English.
I have to upload my Dutch version again to make everything work.
AndreyP
After creating file in admin as 'copy' of english (default) and changing key strings via admin (that it reflect to database) - this is your way?

PS. Way when you edit directly in compiled file like 'langs\lang-en.php' is WRONG. remember it. You should work using database.
lreyes
I want to charge women to join, but allow men to join for free. How do I do that?

I have also setup my Paypal business account and configured dolphin admin for payments and membership levels. Where does the page appear that provides subscription and payment options to the user?
ubuntuwu
i already paid buy license for dolphin and ray ... i should have rights to remove all the link or banner off..but the latest ray3.5 have link to boonex on every ray player left top..that's not right!!

why should i paid to buy a program that still have link to boonex? u r very smart and we are fool to pay money to promo boonex!!

if i don't care about that why should i buy lincese?

i just use free version can do it!!

please take the banner off on ray and left top link!! ..or i want my money see more back!!

Whats the point in releasing an upgrade for a piece of software if you dont release any documentation on how to do an upgrade. I am quite new to these Boonex products and frankly I am a little disappointed. Don't get me wrong I think the software is perfect for what I need but the support is probably the worst I have come across. The installation documentation is hard to follow and not very user friendly, the support sites are a nightmare to navigate so even if there was upgrade documentaton I see more couldnt find it, need I go on!

If anyone knows how to upgrade to 6.1 please enlighten me before I scrap Dolphin completely.
MichelSwiss
As far as I know, upgrade package to 6.1 is not available for now... Wait a few more days ;-)

To use friendly permalinks you should enable mod_rewrite at your server, in other way you should disable permalinks in admin

Dear Madam/Sir,

two days ago I installed one of your programs, which is called Dolphin 6.1 Free + Ray Suite 3.5 + Orca. Then I got the free licence, with this I run Ray Suite 3.5. However, the video player on the homepage does not work properly. Although I registered all the compenents in the administration page, the video player shows a failure of „this widget is not registered“. Other than the video player other features on the homepage are working properly. Could you help me in getting see more rid of this failure?

Thank you very much indeed.

Sincerely

david gul

How to upgrade members membership type manually?This feature was available in 6.0 through admin panel but now it is not there.
MichelSwiss
Was looking for this essential feature too :-)
Cannot find it...

Hi Everyone,
Yes the Upgrade Level function is very important. I can only hope we will see it reinstated sometime soon in v6.1....

I am not sure why the Dev at Boonex removed such an major administration function.

Also After setting up different Levels and Manually changing Members directly in the Database works on the Members side. But on the Admin Side it shows all Members as STANDARD no Matter what Level.. This makes it very difficult and time consuming when Switching to Dolphin 6.1

I see more would think the Admin Panel should get the Level from the DB as the Members side does to reflect the Level of that Member.

How can I fix this.

Thanks
Beef

All my RAY 3.5 widgets with 6.1 just continue to say LOADING.

THANKS for the HELP!
LightWolf
What i did was go here http://www.boonex.com/products/ray/download/ and download Free Ray Suite 3.5. I replaced my rays folder with this and just followed the easy install instructions. Took 10 seconds :-) So if you have dolphin 6.1 free and have same issues with video player,follow what i did and then smile!!
jboyte
Thank you Lightwolf,
replacing the ray file in 6.1 with the Ray 3.5 file and redoing the install fixed it.

OK I have the ads-free version, but I still have all the Boonex links on my pages! Can someone PLEASE tell me why I have these links? Am I suppose to install the license code in the scripting somewhere as well? Its already in the admin settings panel so why do I still have these links?

Thanks,
Tom
mikesta
Since the new version, the links are still in after adding link free codes.
Dont know if that is just a bug of the new version or if the paid licenses from now on are always with links, meaning contributing or buying licenses would be sensless. :(

Oh man....

The promo block worked perfectly before. Now frequently one of the photos appears off in the corner with 3/4 of the block empty. If you refresh the browser it fixes it but man, that looks really bad.

It used to resize my photos too, now it doesn't. So I resized them. That "Join the Community" part was good but now it's gone....and I have to put some writing on the photos. Geeze, why can't people leave well enough alone.

I am probably very stupid - but I cannot find out how to "regenerate" my RAY widgets licenses. I bought the smartpro package - but it wont take that license anymore.

Does anyone know how to regenerate these licenses? All I can see is that I need to pay for them again ...

I am still having the same problem with Orca not showing the dolphin header and footer, it is only showing the code in firefox. Does anyone know how to solve this as I hoped the new version would take care of this problem.
I am trying to find a business directory listing module to integrate into dolphin. We only have 2 types of members businesses and standard users, thus we need to have a different kind of registration form that categorizes the user as a business and adds the profile to the directory listing. Also the profile registration fields need to be more business oriented (i.e. a field for, hours of operation, description, map links, contact info., urls, etc...). Can anyone help me out with a link or some see more advice?
uxmenet
I paid for the unlimited license of Dolphin, and I'm still stuck with a link back to boonex.com (I already applied the license code to the software). I also paid for some Ray Suite modules and now I'm stuck with a linkback at the footer that I can't seem to remove. This was not the deal, link removal usually means that there should not be a link back to your site. I don't even want Orca and some of the Ray Suite modules on my site and somehow I'm stuck with them. I need to get all sorts of link see more backs to your site OFF my site. How do I do that? Thanks.

Hello,
I run my own server and have tried to change the File upload size for Music and Videos From the Admin... it shows the change but, no one can upload a music/video file. I have changed the upload size in my PHP Config so the Server will accept a very large file. But Dolphin gives ERROR that Cannot upload file larger then 2MB.

How can I change this...

Thanks,

Go to Ray Admin again and recheck sizes again
raid159
Woo Hoo...NEW DOLPHIN!!!!!!

same problems

I can't upload music or videos. I couldn't do it with 6.00005 either. I've enabled all the widgets. I use Host for Web. I've looked at every possible thing I can think of but nothing works. If I upload a file less than 2 mb it just says "Approved" but then nothing happens. You can't play the file and it doesn't save anywhere. If you try to upload a file more than 2 mb it says "Your file should not be more than 2mb" even though the see more default setting is 10 mb.

What can I do? The website is www.spectacularsingles.com.

Thanks
esteem
Use this host ,guarantee to work well with dolphin and you wont be facing all the upload problem .
http://www.hostupon.com/cgi-bin/affiliates/clickthru.cgi?id=slashz
raid159
Ok, so HostforWeb said that the 2 Megabyte barrier is on their side and they changed that to 10 megabytes. Great. Now, about music not being saved they wrote this:

"The upload script is sending data to the server but for some reason the media files are not getting saved. I've double checked your file/directory permissions and they match Boonex's instructions.

I'd recommend contacting Boonex directly as this issue appears to be in the Dolphin script itself."

Any ideas anyone?
raid159
Amazing, I got one music file to upload. And it saved. And I can play it.

I don't know what I did...I was playing around in the admin panel at the time.

I tried to do a second one but it won't work. The problem is the upload won't save....the permissions are right...what could it be?
uxmenet
Boonex is going to lose their #1 spot if they don't start replying to these questions...
raid159
#1 spot? Does anyone actually have a functioning site with actual users?
esteem
They will surely reply back to all technical questions, give them some time though but one question they wont reply back is about the widgets having backlink to boonex.com at the top of every ray widgets and also their banner in the help section of their widgets.
MichelSwiss
They are very nice people there, working for us, and I'm sure of that they will answer to any questions... Just let them some time...
esteem
yeah the technical side are all nice and very helpfull peopld but the marketing side isnt helpfull.
uxmenet
Why won't they reply to the question about backlinks? How can I know if I'm allowed to get a professional to remove those links??? I don't think they're helpful at all, they are cowards for not even trying to explain anything to us. The only time they're quick with response is when it comes to pre-sales questions. I'm going to give them some time to explain this to misunderstanding. But if they decide to ignore me (and other people asking the same question as me), I'm sorry but I'm going to have see more to make sure others don't ever get cheated this way. I spent about $200 in licenses! Surely I have every right to know what it is I paid for.

Hi all
I have 6.1 installed and so far I have two issues. First is the "Invite a Friend" feature says it has been sent but never arrives (could also be my host). Would love to know if I can setup my own mail server to use with the script. (advice on that anyone would be fantastic). My second issue, and this might be me being blind, but in the admin panel (6.1) how do you change the membership levels for certain members? It used to be edit the member (6.05) and you would see it at the top, see more not anymore. Someone please steer me in the right direction.

Greetings Fellow Lab Rats,

After six months of constant frustration, $1000 in losses to crooked programmers, and a total of $2500 invested in this venture we are no closer to having our website online than ever before. Now it's back to square one with version 6.1. We are facing the loss of all of our modifications and Judging by the problems and unimpressive comments about the new releases one can't help but be discouraged.

Our advice to everyone is don't get involved with Boonex unless you see more have unlimited time to burn waiting for them to get it right and don't spend a dime on modifications by these so called Expertzz who operate in obscurity with no accountability unless you can afford to throw your money away.

Are they nice people? -Yes! - and will they eventually get it right? - Maybe! They are already ripe for class action lawsuits which may bring them down before they can produce a finished product and presently they aren't doing anything to protect themselves. When you place your own interests above those of your programmers and clients you are destined for failure.

I personally like Andrey and I wish them the best. I hope they make it. I think everyone involved realizes how great this could be if it were properly managed. But for now it is impossible to take them seriously.

Once again, I mean no harm! - Juker

i am having issues all over the place and still have yet to find a single fix for any of them:

1) cannot edit user levels ( hear that its being fixed)
2) the only ray module that is working correctly is mp3 player, all other fail to upload and/or connect at all.
3) affiliate support is not intuitive in anyway and no explanation is given for anything there.
4) when i upload a new banner ad, it changes the name of the ad to something like "08.jpeg" instead of keeping the original name, see more and when i try to delet a banner ad, it just reinstalls it when i log out.
5) when a new member signs up, it sends them an activation email and once they click the link it tells them they are active but then dolphin keeps telling them they arent active and i have to manually go through the admin panel to ativate them even though i have it set to activate them in settings.
6) Orca doesnt work if you dont have url_fOpen allowed, which my host doesnt for security reasons and there isnt a work around anywhere that i can find.
7) admin polls are being saved but not diplaying where on the main page, even though its set to display them.

there are more but i have to find my list and consult with my interns on their findings. My boss is telling me he loves the software and wants to spend the $'s on all of the licenses, but in good conscience i cant allow it until someone fixes some serious issues.
uxmenet
The polls were working for me, but the orca plugin wasn't (page is full of code). Some modules got messed up a few hours after I installed the software (e.g. quick search).

I think Dolphin could be absolutely perfect for a business portal, but unfortunately the developers have so tightly integrated the dating functions that they have made it extremely difficult to use it for this purpose. I was hugely disappointed that this wasn't addressed in 6.1. Could anyone give me instructions on how to remove the couples, sex and age from the product? I have been trying at Expertzzz with no luck.
MichelSwiss
Don't you know ???... Originally Dolphin was a dating site script !!!
Developers are doing an incredible work to make this script more and more flexible to fit any use.

April 20 to support@boonex.com and quotes@boonex.com
asking for support and nobody is responding, even though
on this same blog I was told to send email to support.

Artur, who was helping me, is not responding either.

I purchased the SmartPro pack and also paid around $800
extra to import my users into Dolphin .. so I am not a freebie
(not that there is anything wrong with that see more either).

I would like to know HOW can I reach support, other than
sending emails to support@boonex.com or quotes@boonex.com.

I have the follwing issues:

- The $800 import is incomplete. 1/2 of the people is showing
"Spain" as the country (the default value) when they are obviously
from some other country.

- Links on comments are not working.

- I would like to upgrade to new version.

I believe that the SmartPro package included support, and that I
am still entitled for another upgrade (2 upgrades included, right?)

I am sorry to spill the beans right here but it is a little insane
that I am being ignored, specially after paying so much money.

I hope this posting work as I am getting a little desperate.

I agree with you. I just don't understand why the support can't just reply, especially to paid members. Members who didn't pay for anything will of course not complain much because they had nothing to lose.

Yeah, the solution is...don't pay.

you know what I'd like to see...no more features. enough already.

Just make me something that works please. I'd pay money if I could be guaranteed a site that works.

Hey Richard, nice site. Did you have to do anything to get music working or did it just work? Who is your hosting company?

Has anybody tested Dolphin in a Web Cluster enviroment? Is Dolphin able to handle 34.000 Users online? SQL Perfomance?

Please respond - thank you,

so it's true that this has a call home feature?
Steve
Of cause it has "callbacks" its a FREE script and who would begrudge Boonex adding their advertising to a FREE script?? its common business practice to do so... and very good marketing ploy if i dont say so myself :)... on the point of Boonex not getting back to its users... i have been in the Boonex Unity community and involved in the BETA testing for quite some time and they do respond quite frequently.. patience is a virtue ;) and as you can appreciate their are litterally thousands see more of people installing and using this script... some good with websites and scripts/some not so good...give the staff at Boonex the oportunity to answer your questions and im sure they will...i know everyone thinks their needs are important... but their a thousands of people doing the same
Chill out guys and im sure all problems will be sorted out

I want to do a fresh install of the Dolphin script so that i don't have any of the problems i was facing in the 6.005 version.
Can i then backup the database through the Dolphin system and use it so as not to loose my users and their data?
annabel
Same question here.

Which tables of the old database (6.0005) do I need to export and import again in the 6.1 version ?

This because I have Dutch language file (and strings) and I do not want to import them in the new installed database.

But of course I need profiles, messages, vkisses, etc. from the old database.
Steve
I doubt "backing up your Database" would be enough if you do a full install of the New Script.. i think you will find you need to reupload all your Media files your members have uploaded .... and im not sure the older Database will work with the New Script

see moreMichaelSwiss - yes, of course I know that Dolphin was originally a dating script, but it has some features that would be excellent for business if it wasn't such a nightmare to remove the dating portions. Does anyone know how to remove that "couples" stuff from the registration- as well as the sex and age- usually inappropriate and in some places even illegal for business. I really wish they had made this an option in the control panel. Any help on how to remove it would be appreciated.
MichelSwiss
Hello CALTRADE :-)

I'm still using 6.0002,5 haevily moded :-)
But as far as I can see in the Admin demo, you have control on fields like sex, couple, ... and on most of blocks on most of pages too ???
If some fields you don't need still appear, it is ever possible to edit a bit the core script ;-)
ydrargyros
Steve i am aware of that,
i am just wondering if there will be a compatibility between the 6.005 and 6.1 backup system!
What's the reason of backing up through Dolphin's backup system if there is no use of it????????????????????
ydrargyros
As well as for my bug reporting...the photo rotation in the profiles is extra cool...unless one has only one photo! Then it gets kinda jerky!

I have been testing the new free version of dolphin 6.1 on our test sever and have been having a couple of problem. The first is the video player not working and I have sent an email off about this as instructed in Item 2, but I am also having problems with the clasifieds search results. The link that it returns in the search results box is faulty. (e.g. http://(domainname)/(dolphin)//(dolphin)/classifieds.php?ShowAdvertisementID=1). Two extra slashes and dolphins subdirectory name are being added see more in to the URL string so that it returns a 404 error due to it pointing to the wrong location for the classifieds.php page.
The correct string should be like this (e.g. http://(domainname)/(dolphin)/classifieds.php?ShowAdvertisementID=1).
Where would I need to go to correct this problem?
ravel
Got things working from last post. Does anyone have a fix for "this widget is not registered" when trying to view videos?

Licenses all say installed and working. Thank you in advance.
LightWolf
What i did was go here http://www.boonex.com/products/ray/download/ and download Free Ray Suite 3.5. I replaced my rays folder with this and just followed the easy install instructions. Took 10 seconds :-) So if you have dolphin 6.1 free and have same issues with video player,follow what i did and then smile!!
jakewood
Hi all, I have been installing PHP scripts for some time now and this is one of the most complex installations I have done so far.
Can I just install the Dolphin product without the rest, then add as I go along?
The only download links I see are for the Dolphin+Ray+Orca package. Where can I find the individual package downloads?
ydrargyros
You can find dolphin with the other scripts as a bundle but also Orca and Ray as standalones in www.boonex.com
raid159
It's actually not that bad an install. You just upload everything, set all the permissions, the cron jobs, the paths and then delete the install directory and you are done.

It's fixing the problems after that that's the challenge. I' can't upload music or videos. They won't save. I don't understand why.

This error keeps on happening to my sites after brand new installation of 6.1 version of Dophin!

Since a few days now, I'm getting error messages on my site everytime a new user wants to create a profile.

Warning: fopen(/home/onderweg/public_html/cache/user68.php) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/onderweg/public_html/inc/profiles.inc.php on line 748

I'm still using version 6.0005

What is the reason for this ?
LeonidS
Hello!

Cache folder must have 777 permissions - this is most possible reason of your problem.

Charisma
Ok Please Help!
I am trying to get my predefined fields to show up on the Profile View... but they are not... they show up perfectly on the Join Form, but not on the profile view.
For Example... NickName & City Show fine
but Sex and Country do not, as they are Predefined.

How can I get this to work properly please. I have reinstalled a number of times, it appears to be a software glitch.

Has anyone solved this problem??
AndreyP

your post in blog
Just wait a update (in several hours)

after everything i've read here and on expertzzz i'm not going to upgrade any of my sites. it seems like each version actually gets worse for errors and bugs, and to make it worse i read at the top that most of the dolphin script has been rewritten and NONE of the 6.0 mods will work and we have to wait for the all expensive mods to be released by boonex/expertzzz programmers.
why change everything so we all have to re-learn the dolphin script. that may be ok if you're some big company or you actually see more make money from your dolphin site but for people like me who do it as a hobby at my own cost, it makes me want to walk away from all future dolphin releases.
martin8558
you know what I agree im tyring to do something special wit my site and they came out with this new version that does not work for all comunity site like im trying to do my moto is if its not broke dont fix it before you come out with a new product it should be error proof because cost users time and money so im going back to the old dolphin

I have a problem with dolphin 6.1..when i create a new group category,it allows me to create just one. I try to create another and i get a red bar on a white page saying error. This also happens when i try to install scripting for profile layouts using a mod i bought from Simion called (CSS-HTML Profiles v2 With a little kick.) I can get this mod to install all right,but wont allow any data to be injected into the database it seems. Once i paste the profile layout code and hit save i get that same see more white page with red bar saying data base error. I have done a few clean installs and same problem each time. This seems to be my only issues so far,all seems to work great!...Any ideas?
faisalzafar
I have installed the new version of dolphin 6.1 free version for the testing purpose. I have two issues and that wana resolve before i purchase this script.

1- IM Chat is not working, when i click on any online user to IM Chat now then my message give to him and other user accepted but on both windows the message displayed that the other user is not accepted as he accepted then automatically msg delivered. Why this happends? is there any restriction of Free version or any thing else?

2- i wana see more banner management on the whole site, i see in the admin panel under Tools section that there is link of Banners but when i clicked on it then it will only displayed the text base banners but i want to display image base banner. I have also observed that in the Affilate Manage Section there is also banners section but i can't see its effect if any banner uploaded? is this is disable due to that reason it not working. please brief me in explain what i can do with both issues.

Many Thanks

Upgrade to 6.1.1 and now the website isn't great with Mac Safari or Flock.

I can't believe an upgrade also reset any work that I have done since the install.

E.G. My search page goes to a default one.
The CSS changed my whole website
The Join page is all different,
The database errors on my fields that I created on the old version.

This may have been a new install. Other software update that I have done on other software doesn't effect the website just improves it.

Ow well,
mondrus
Yeah guys, I'm pretty unhappy. Had 6.05 working good and like an idiot upgraded. So now I have the 404 error, I dont' want to turn off the permalinks, and mod_rewrite is on and running. So now what?
sammie
still now reply to the chat admin/moderator issue.
how can you run a chat room, one for adults of all things, and not have the ability to kick out the perverts that join solely to sexually harass your female member?

if you cant protect your female members from sexual harassment, you'll end up with Dolphin being the perfect gay guy site, as no woman in her right mind would join a site that allows her to be sexually harassed and abuse in a public chat room while staff site by and do nothing about see more it.
what can the staff do? NOTHING, AS THE ADMIN HAS NO POWERS EITHER,
isacologne
The best way to a clean site is, reinstall all this boonex-shit and wait for a working script or use other scripts from the market. I wait now some days for support but there is'nt one person, that can help. I think, i will unsubscribe from here and search apps by others.
DosDawg

I did not do the upgrade at all, waiting to get all bugs fixed and noticed that my Ray Widgets are not longer registered. I did not change anything in the backend and this happened after the upgrade release.
