A Well Organized Postbit_Legacy

[zendiver]

I keep getting PM's asking about my postbit_legacy template and everyone keeps telling me I should post it. So here it is.

First of all, you will need to install Cyricx's User Info Collapsable Postbit in Legacy (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=94092). Once you have installed the product and get to the step of editing the postbit_legacy template, this is where this one would take over.

(NOTE: I have NOT put this to use in the postbit template, ONLY the postbit_legacy template. If you try it in your postbit, then let someone know that it works)

(ALSO NOTE: I have PhotoPost Pro and Jason's iTrader installed and shown in my users information. If you don't have them installed and have something else you want to show in your members information, just replace that bit of information or add yours to the area that you want it to show up in. Everyones postbit information varies, so adjust your information in the appropriate categories outlined below. See attached screenshots of what mine looks like.)

This is installed on ver 3.5.2.

In your postbit_legacy template:

FIND:

<if condition="$show['avatar']">
<div class="smallfont">
&nbsp;<br /><a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]"><img src="$post[avatarurl]" alt="<phrase 1="$post[username]">$vbphrase[xs_avatar]</phrase>" border="0" /></a>
</div>
</if>


PUT THIS BELOW IT: (you will see why in a second)

<!-- ******************************************** -->


NOW FIND:

</td>
<if condition="$show['moderated']">
<td class="alt2" id="td_post_$post[postid]">
<else />
<td class="alt1" id="td_post_$post[postid]">
</if>


ADD ABOVE IT:

<!-- ******************************************** -->


Now replace everything between these:

<!-- ******************************************** -->


WITH THIS:


<div class="smallfont">
&nbsp;<br />
<!-- START COLLAPSABLE POSTBIT BEGINNING-->
<if condition="THIS_SCRIPT=='showthread' OR THIS_SCRIPT=='showpost'">
<table class="tborder" cellspacing="1" border="0" width="100%">

</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
<tbody id="collapseobj_postbit_legacy_userinfo$post[postcount]" style="$vbcollapse[collapseobj_postbit_legacy_userinfo]"><tr><td class="alt2">
</if>
<!-- / END COLLAPSABLE POSTBIT BEGINNING-->

<!-- START PROFILE LEGEND -->

huuuuuu very nice ;)

[eXaulz]

Not really my taste, but it's a great idea.

[utw-Mephisto]

Lol ... one week ago I did it myself which took me bloody hours to get it work :)

[Yorixz]

I really like the idea, I'm just wondering if it's possible to make it standard that everything is collapsed, that would be really welcome.

[Cyricx]

Damn that's nice bro :)

[Corriewf]

Yeah, would remove this:

<div>iTrader: <b><a href="itrader.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]">$post[itrader_total]</a></b></div></if>
<if condition="$post['photos']"><div>Photos: <strong>$post[photos]</strong> <a href="$vbpoptions[bbdir]/gallery/showgallery.php?cat=500&ppuser=$post[userid]"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/lastpost.gif" alt="Users Photo Gallery" border="0" /></a></if>
</div>

[zendiver]

Corri, the reason I went ahead and left that in there is that there are quite a few people that have them both installed and have asked for it. Also, it gives them an idea of where they can go to replace with what they are using. Just trying to help. I didn't find this to be a big deal as I was just trying to keep my site a bit more organized, but there have been quite a few people that have commented on it and hounding me to post it....so I did. :)

Cyricx - thank you. Just trying to add more organization to yours.

A lot of people dont use photopost and some people woudlnt see that code to remove. ect ect.... Good stuff though.

[Yorixz]

I still hope someone can tell me how to make it collapsed by default ;)

[Rich]

Hello,

Just so you know, your instructions are being saved in a PHP file and this may confuse people. They may think they need to upload that file in order for this to work. I would suggest making that a txt file or an html file. :D

Good point. File has been exchanged to a .txt file.

[zendiver]

Yorixz, I will look into it and talk with Cyricx to see what he thinks, but I don't want to go and start modifying his hack. You may get better luck asking this in his forum. The link is posted in the original post.

[Yorixz]

Ok, thanks. I'll do so tomorrow.

[zendiver]

OK Yorixz, here ya go:

For those that are looking to have them collapsed as their default:

FIND

<tbody id="collapseobj_postbit_legacy_userinfo$post[postcount]" style="$vbcollapse[collapseobj_postbit_legacy_userinfo]><tr><td class="alt2">

REPLACE WITH:
<tbody id="collapseobj_postbit_legacy_userinfo$post[postcount]" style="$vbcollapse[collapseobj_postbit_legacy_userinfo]; display:none"><tr><td class="alt2">

[Yorixz]

I love you, thanks!

[Floris]

Nice stuff dude, thank you for sharing :)

[King Kovifor]

May I suggest $post[username] isntead of $post[musername]? There won't be a mark up.

[ShinJi87]

very nice ! Thanks

[Xplorer4x4]

Thanks Zendiver. ;)

[zendiver]

May I suggest $post[username] isntead of $post[musername]? There won't be a mark up.
KK, I used the $post[musername] for the markup of the color schemes of our members. I felt that it give it more value and it stands out more for our users to even more differentiate between who is who. Using only the $post[username] just blends in with everything and everyone else. It's your own preference.

[puertoblack2003]

hello like you're hack and installed it but there were previous hacks that i had installed and wanted to add to your but have no luck in doing it not a coder and maybe you can help so i can complete it..

will show you samples of before and after:

http://img334.imageshack.us/img334/5104/sample16dr.gif (http://www.puertotech.com) sample # 1 before your hack http://img334.imageshack.us/img334/3489/sample2new3en.gif (http://www.puertotech.com) sample#2 after your hack i will add template, can't figure out how to add it

thanks for your help :rolleyes:

[zendiver]

I am glad that it I could help and it was what you were wanting.

Anyone?

[brvheart]

I installed, but afterwards, all the post were now on the left between users sigs and the new postbit area....any help here please?

[Xplorer4x4]

I dont understand, but undo the template edits. You went wrong some where.

[brvheart]

I will redo it tomorrow then take a screenshot and post it...I already un-did the template mods....everything is back to normal now....I am not sure how you screw up replace everything between here
<!-- ******************************************** -->and here
<!-- ******************************************** -->

but I guess I did....

Edit: I better stop for the night...careless mistake on my part....had the bottom line after the shown code instead of before it :-/

[Xplorer4x4]

LOL happens to all of us zombies at soem point in time. ;)

[argash]

For some reason when i click the button to collaps the box it just takes me to the top of the current page. Any ideas why that would happen?

[brvheart]

did you make sure that you modded the JavaScript?

[stutefc]

Can someone help me...seems to have worked ok. However how do you guys get the arcade info to show (yes I have an arcade installed) and how do you guys the wee statistical graphs...is that another hack. I also appear to be missing a gif spacer.

I have also lost my awards ie medals to users that won them

[zendiver]

stu, if you have other hacks installed, as mentioned in the main post, you have to add yours in place of others that you don't have or in addition to. Just follow the same format by moving your information between the <!-************-> and the closing one.

ALSO NOTE: I have PhotoPost Pro and Jason's iTrader installed and shown in my users information. If you don't have them installed and have something else you want to show in your members information, just replace that bit of information or add yours to the area that you want it to show up in. Everyones postbit information varies, so adjust your information in the appropriate categories outlined below. See attached screenshots of what mine looks like.)

[argash]

how do i get the number of referals to show in the postbit?

[GuaRRand]

Got it working for 99%.
Only thing which doesnt go ok yet is that, when i have the default to folded (so no additional info) and i post something, it shows the postbit as collapsed after the post has been submitted.

When i then reload the page, its folded again, as should be.
(see attached image).

So it seems that the post is faster then the folding or something.
It seems that the plugin/code cant fold fast enough before the page is fully loaded or something.

Any idea?

[bugman]

Hey, I was wondering.. I have PhotoPost Pro too, how can we show the user's latest photo from their gallery, maybe instead of the # of photos? like under the avatar?

and then maybe a text link under that.

also, is the link to their gallery in your mod based on whether or not they have any photos ?

[GuaRRand]

Any word on my prob? (see 4 posts above)

[zendiver]

GuaRRand, that has something to do with the collapsable information. You may want to ask Cyricx's over in this thread: User Info Collapsable Postbit in Legacy (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=94092)

[vbreal]

how can i do this for regular postbit in 3.5.4

[GlitterKill]

I just installed this on my VB 3.6.1 forum and it works great. :)

Did anyone else notice that when using this mod it increases server load? I just set this mod up and my load just quadrupled!

[Minha]

Hi Zendiver. I'm interested to install your modification. But I have 3 fields and looking your code i don?t know how modificated for my postbit legacy.

This fields are :

Field1 ----Text (Sektor: )
Field2 ----Text (Moto: )
Field6 ----Text (Localizaci?n: )

Can you help me?
Thanks and nice work ;)

GK - I do not see a difference in my server load at all. It should have nothing to do with it as it is just a template change.

Minha, it would be helpful if you could post a link to your site so we can take a look at it. If you would, PM me your postbit_leagacy template and I will take a look.

[fishhub]

It works well. But could have improved alittle bit more such as:

Currently when u click the drag down, it opens up all users add info. Would be good if it operates only on an individule drag down.


:)

[fishhub]

all right, have done much testing and realised it is not working in private message postbit legacy.

Any kind soul can assist?

TIA
