About JV Firesale Automator

[iberbiz]

HI, Alex Perez-Prat from Workwithoutboss Dot Com here,

I need a little help with "JV Firesale Automator" script, and I wonder that perhaps someone on the forum can help me.

Does anybody uses this software?

[Carter]

I've never heard of it - do you have a link?

[Carter]

Ooops, sorry - internet connection probs caused a double post... honest!

[iberbiz]

I have installed it
http://workwithoutboss.com/eternalgiveaway
and it is almost running OK, except the referral link..
I have followed the instructions but I can´t make the changes
in the .htaccess file.

The instructions says:
-------------------
Step 3: Editing the .htaccess file:

This is really simple. Open the file ".htaccess" in a text editor, and replace the words "this-scripts-directory" with what you provided as the value of
$scriptDir in Step 1. After that, just save the file.
------------------

In my .htaccess file I can´t see the words "this-scripts-directory". The only code I can see in this file is:

----------------
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^go/([0-9]+)/?$ /jv/parser.php?refid=$1
RewriteRule ^jv/go/([0-9]+)/?$ /jv/register.php?refid=$1&jv=yes
----------------------

I know that if I don´t configure the .htaccess file correctly my referral links will not work.

Can you help me on this, please?

[Carter]

Sorry, I have no idea how to fix that. You could start a new post over at the programming section. Good luck.

To me it looks like:

jv = "this-scripts-directory" - So replace "jv" with "eternalgiveaway".

I will be installing this script for the first time in the next 48 hours or so, so that would be my guess.

So what was the problem? How did you sort it?

You shouldn't make any changes to the .htaccess file for it to work, except when the sub-folder you've installed in isn't /jv/.
If you gave it a different name, just replace /jv/ with your own sub-folder's name.
That should do the trick. Think that is the same solution that you have posted.
