Log In Block Made into One Line

[chrisdaman77]

Ok for most of you this is going to be highly simple. This is my first attempt at a template modification that I thought as useful. I questioned whether or not to even post it but after being told by a coder that they thought it was a good idea and I changed my mind.

What it does: It takes out the stock log in and navbits section and makes it into one line. There is an attached image to see it.

If you like using the navbits part that is in the left block then this may not be for you as it completely removes them.

If in the event you do not like it after you do it you just need to revert your navbar template.

In the Navbar template find:

<!-- breadcrumb, login, pm info -->

If in the event you are using Boofo's Ultimate Navbar hack located here (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=172507)
then you will need to change this line <strong><phrase 1="$bbuserinfo[username]" 2="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$bbuserinfo[userid]">$vbphrase[welcome_x_link_y]</phrase></strong><br />with this code:

<strong><phrase 1="$vbphrase[ung_line]" 2="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$bbuserinfo[userid]" 3="$vbphrase[realname]" 4="$vbphrase[ung_punctuation]">$vbphrase[ung_greeting]</phrase></strong>I hope you enjoy!

If you find any glitches just post them here and I will find a fix for you as long as you marked as Installed.

Thanks to Boofo for helping me out with finding what need to be done to work with his (where I was going wrong).

The first image is what it will look like at 100% the second image is at 880px and is modified a little differently as i have things separated, but gives a better idea as to the appearance in a narrower skin.

Thanks

Chris

Screenshot ?

[chrisdaman77]

I apologize apparently it did not upload.

[blastup]

you should upload a not loged in screenshot

[chrisdaman77]

Will do ;)

[chrisdaman77]

Just updated the new code as I just noticed there was another template mod included and I don't need to distribute someone elses work as my own ;). Thought I caught it earlier but apparently not :rolleyes:

[valdet]

Thanks. I believe it should work on 3.6.8 right?

[chrisdaman77]

I will say yes but I am not 100% sure as none of my boards run 3.6.8 any more

[pollutioN]

Very Nice :D

[Boofo]

I don't think the login block has changed very much since 3.6.8.

[trigatch4]

I got this working... but I copied/pasted it in my header and it "pushed" the other elements in my header down, thereby throwing the alignment of images off. Is there an easy way to alter the code so that it is displayed in the header without taking up any additional vertical space?

[chrisdaman77]

I just tried this out on one of my test skins and it did not push anything for me. Do you have a link to your board so I can see what it is doing?

[whitetigergrowl]

Why doesn't the notification drop down exist with this? O_o

[chrisdaman77]

Notification drop down? Are you referring to the navbits part?

[whitetigergrowl]

yes

[chrisdaman77]

The reason was I personally don't like them. With a little know how you can keep them. If you have an issue with keeping it or putting it back in let me know and I can get you the right code to have that included.

[vbengland]

Thank you

[iyihost]

thanks very good
