### ABOUT ###

This is vB Easy Archive v2.4 - This script should work on all versions of vBulletin 2.2.x.

Credit goes to Xenon for originally creating this script and giving me permission to modify it and release it!

### REQUESTS ### 

In order to use this script, you MUST leave the small copyright information intact on the bottom of all pages. You may modify the size/color of it, but it must be visible and the links/names must remain untouched. Please respect this. Also, if you install this script, please remember to click the "Install" button beside it @ http://www.vbulletin.org !!!

### REQUIREMENTS ### 

vBullletin 2.2.X
Apache (sorry, only works on apache for now.)
Mod_mime installed (Visit http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?s=&postid=340904#post340904 for more info)

### KNOWN ERRORS ###

After you've installed the scripts, if you can see the front page of your archive, but get an error page when you click on any links then you don't have Mod_mime installed. To fix this, you will need to install mod_mime, or ask your host to do it. It's a FREE module. For more information, visit http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_mime.html

### INSTALLING ###

[Step 1] Create a directory INSIDE your forums folder (ex: /forums/archive) to store the files in. Name it anything you want (archive, history, ect.)

[Step 2] Open up config.php and edit the 3 variables inside it. Be sure not to include trailing slashes on any of the URL's.

[Step 3] Upload all 7 files (.htaccess, config.php, footer.php, forum, header.php, index.php and topic) in ASCII mode to the new directory you created in Step 1.

That's it! You should now beable to access your archive at http://www.yoursite.com/forums/archive (or whatever you named the directory)! Remember to submit it to google ( http://www.google.com/addurl.html ) and add a link to it on your forums page (to get spidered faster & better results!). Also, you can edit the header.php and footer.php templates to suit your needs and add styles, ect. If you have any problems/suggestions for this script, please visit the thread at http://www.vbulletin.org and post them!
