I'll pass this on to peple who know this stuff better than I. Hopefully I will have an answer for you in a day.

The size reserved in the SQL field for the webpage is 70 so I'd suggest a maxsize of 65.

Could be that your password has been changed. You will need to look in your MySQL database to see what the username and password are set as. Or you could use my reset script to restore them to the defaults.

Out of interest why don't you sign in to post seeing how you are a member?

As I requested in the other thread you posted this in, could you please supply a link to the guestbook in question.

I to just logged in to http://woodystaverntexas.hostasaurus.com/guestbook/admin.php using the default username and password. If you stil canot login then the problem must lie with your computer, possibly a firewall or anti virus problem.

Paul what is the link to your guestbook so I can test it?

What SQL version is your host running? It should make no difference as the SQL queries are a simple and standard format that will not be changed.

I was refering to getting email notifications but there being no new entry in the guestbook. As to the maximum size you can allow in the Homepage text box I will need to look at the install file to see how big the SQL entry is for it.

1 - Edit the template form.php and change the maxlength in

2 - Check your private messages.

Think I will rewrite the update script from scratch.

Yeah but I like the colour scheme. better than white. I tested it on my sites guestbook and it worked fine. Hopefully this should help those that need to reset the password and username.

no feedback

I'll possibly look at rewriting it to let you inout the new username and password but only if the others feel this would be needed.

Ok I've rewritten my script for resetting your Advanced guestbooks password. Simply download -------------------------- and extract the reset.php file. Upload this file to your guestbooks directory. Visit the reset.php file in your web browser (ie goto www.YOURDOMAIN.com/guestbook/reset.php ) and input your MySQL password. You can find the password in your admin/config.inc.php file. then click submit. Remember to delete the file once you are done.

I have written a better reset script and it is available from http://carbonize.co.uk/Lazarus/Forum/index.php?topic=8.0

Sorry yeah the index.htmlpage is only in there to prevent people getting a directory listing. I mean you need to check the .php files in templates and check to see if any are missing. As I said, if you haven't editted the templates you could simply download the script again and upload the template files from it.

Well if you didn't edit them simply upload a new copy by downloading the script again. If your index pages have become blank it sounds like somebody accessed your server or the server got hit by a worm. What other scripts are you running and are they upto date ?
