Hello,

Not big of a problem but want to fix it as it was there before ...i think..

what i did...(big story)

as you might remember from previous topics i had the rewrite problem which resulted in showing categories into numbers instead of its name.

so i started editing the database directly.
for a long time all was going fine,but i still must have made a mistake somewhere...

things didnt looked to great so i decided to put back my completed version which i did local some time ago,but loosing a bunch of links that were submitted.

So i uploaded that database and pointed my config.php settings to the new database..
(the files and folders are never touched.)

so far so good..
but there are 2 weird things....

if i go to members/Integration Generator i just see a dropdown with zero content to choose from.
So the dropdown is very tiny.

Where did it go?

Second thing is the latest member..
That still show !
But im starting new with 0 members...
and i dont have a cache either...

Any clear answer with these 2 mystery's ?

That means there's nothing else in the database. Only 5.0's integration generator can use a different database. You can manually edit the file in 4.1 to say database.tablename but I can't guarantee it'll work, it's only tested and supported in 5.0.

so i started editing the database directly.

That's never a good idea. If you get numeric rewriting, either:
(a) you have characters in the name that aren't legal in URLs
(b) there's some sort of bug

If (a), you can set a special rewrite URL for the category by editing the category in 5.0+. If (b), request site inspection.

Second thing is the latest member..
That still show !


If you're using an old database, that's going to show until regeneration.

yes i see...figured the first question out....

as for the second...
the database is the fully regenerated one i finished some time ago....i started with that version...

it has no members at all,just me.....believe me..

so how can it show latest member that doesn't exist ?

There's always at least one member, you. The display normally only updates at the time someone registers or when a totals regeneration is performed, though.

Tested deleting a member and then regenerating totals, updates properly for me.

Well paul i do wanna believe you but what im seeing is impossible.
The backup database im using now is the one i created some time ago when i was busy importing everything all that time.
So the only member was indeed the admin.
So what i did was upload that database and pointed the config to the other database.
So you see paul....its impossible that it shows that member...

But...it gets funier,when i got a new member the "ghost member" disapeared...
So now i only see the true members..
Solved...but weird.
