All translations stopped working - all threads are blank when a flag is clicked

Ok. It would appear to me this is probably why: My adminfunctions_options.php does not have save_settings because I am on vBulletin 3.6.8. vBulletin 3.8.x would have it.

vBET worked for me before when I was on vBET 3.4.1 which does not use save_settings.

Now that I upgraded to vBET 3.5.2 and I am running into the problem with save_settings.

So what do you think we should do?

[r.dziadusz]

Updating vBulletin to latest version (3.8.7) would solve it

[myandy99]

My vBulletin is highly customized and integrated with other software. Upgrading vBulletin is not an option.

Is there any other way to make vBET work for me?

[vBET]

Yes. You need to made code changes and change calling of save_settings to other function/code which will save the setting. vBulletin 3.6 is not officially supported, but we can do it official in next release (one if checking does function exists). So we will check how in this old version vBulletin saves settings and we will give you hints about code changes. Until then - just please disable vBET.

[vBET]

This is NOT TESTED solution. Please check it and confirm does it help. If yes then we will include it in next release. We cannot test because we do not support officially so old version of vBulletin and we do not have testing forum for this one.

Quick fix:
1. Open file /includes/vbenterprisetranslator_class_translator.php
2. Find:

save_settings(array ('vbet_provider_availability_'.$provider => $availability));

3. Replace by:

if (function_exists('save_settings')) {
save_settings(array ('vbet_provider_availability_'.$provider => $availability));	
} else {
global $vbulletin;
$vbulletin->db->query_write("
UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "setting
SET value = '" . $vbulletin->db->escape_string($availability) . "'
WHERE varname = '" . $vbulletin->db->escape_string('vbet_provider_availability_'.$provider) . "'
");
build_options();
}

Thanks. With the change the error is gone but it does not translate anymore. Whatever language flag I click it still displays English

[vBET]

It is not because of the change. This is because you reach your limits in translation providers.

Ok, in which case I will just wait for Google or Microsoft miraculously become available again? Or purchase Google Translate API 2?

[r.dziadusz]

vBET will automaticaly checked which API is available in every 10 minutes, and switch it on, also if you are sure you didn't reach your limits - f.e. you've translated only one page and nobody else was on forum you could write to microsoft - mtcont@microsoft.com, maybe it appears becouse of Microsoft internal error, but most probably you've just normaly reached your limits
Also please note that vBET supports Google (paid) translation v2 API and tests new api: Apertium (click for more info)
