Terms of Service Violation

[livingingc]

I was testing the pet output and its saying "Terms of service violation" on myspace. Apparantly, the code isnt allowed there. Is there a way around this?

You could try adding the following code to a .htaccess file in your public_html folder (Change pets to the location of your installation):

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /pets/

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^pets/get/([0-9]+).gif$ /pets/get.php?id=$1 [L]

Then you would have to edit the bbcode generator in manage.php so that the new URLs for the images are reflected. The code above will hopefully trick MySpace into seeing the dynamic images as static ones, thus hopefully solving the problem.

i figured it out, i forgot to change the path at the rewriterule part at the bottom. Wow. imm glad thats fixed.

Ok, in the file manage.php find:

PHP Code:

<img src=\"http://www.".$dname."".$spath."/get.php?id=".$cid."\"> 


I think you will need to change to:

PHP Code:

<img src=\"http://www.".$dname."".$spath."/get/".$id.".gif\"> 


That is assuming you installed the .htaccess file correctly, then that should work. Also, change .gif to the extension of your image files if different.

Alright, thanks. It works fine now.

[BMR777]

If you have any other issues please let me know. :)

Johnathon is the lead developer on the next release as he has taken over the Adoptables Script development for me. He has made public a list of new features in this thread.

i haven't got this mod to work yet, but don't have the time to work on it right now.

I did want to poing out that you will also want to change the script on the adopt.php or new people will be getting the old code when they first adopt.

[agnyz]

in this part of the code.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /pets/

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^pets/get/([0-9]+).gif$ /pets/get.php?id=$1 [L]

does the .gif$ need to be changed to .jpg$ if using jpgs?

I assume it does but you know what they say about assuming.[hr]
Ok I just don't get it.

This is a simple mod and should be easy to do but I just can't make it work.

I checked livingingc program and i can see it does work. Btw livingingc you do need to change the adopt.php page when i firts adopted it is giving me the old code.

when i add this <img src="http://www.".$dname."".$spath."/get/".$id.".jpg\">

I get this
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/agnyz/public_html/pettest/manage.php on line 118

so i tested it using a copy of the script that i didn't alter any and i still get the same error message.

When I first installed this program I noticed the same thing with myspace and came up with the same mod back then but was getting that error message so I used a work around just to show a static logo image for the site on myspace.

When I seen this post I thought perhaps it was the .htaccess file that was making it not work, but that isn't the case.

The short of it is, when I apply this mod I get the above mentioned error message.

Could it be something with my hosting?[hr]
i should add that I am getting this error when I click on the link to get the codes for the html.
