About this hack:
It is javh not java :D
I always wanted to have my other site links on my forums. That is the main reason to build this hack. After that I added some useful links from the forum itself like start new thread if the user on forumdisplay page, add new reply when the user on show thread page, search, today posts, new unread posts, pmstatus, and others. That is for logged in users, for visitors they will see the login form and registration link.
Then to make the hack more usefull, I added the last # post on the forums in a marquee below the hot links.
The Javh 1 is the first hack of series of hacks, where each hack has a different implementation and uses. So Javh 2 will be a different than javh 1 and javh 3 will be different than 2 and so on. No idea what javh 2 will be about, but you may suggest or give an idea for a hack that is really needed by most VB forum admins.
Please note I added links to my site in the hot links of the hack options just to give you an idea of how hot links can be used. You need to change them to what ever you want or delete them if you wish after installing the product. Setting an empty link title or url will hide that link.
More Descriptions:
This hack is about a floating menu.
It has max of three rows of links and min two.
The first line has an external links of other sites or ads that the forum administrator need to add to his forum. This will be useful to drive visitor attention to some other pages. This line can be removed completely by setting empty titles or urls in the hack options, that is from title/url 1 to title/url 7.
The second line has links of the forum itself so when the member is logged in he will see new posts, today posts, search, pm status, and logout link. If the visitor is not a member or has not logged in member he will see the login form with registration link. More links will be added depending on the visitor current page, so if the visitor is on a showthread page a newreply link will appear, if he is on a forumdisplay add newthread link will appear.
The last line is marquee with the last # of posts.
The administrator can control almost everything in the hack like its background color or image, font color and size, and marquee direction.
The hack width is automatically adjusted but administrator can set its width to whatever he wants.
In version 1.1 a new close button been added to allow visitor to close the hack and it will not open again until the next browser session. The administrator can still change this to make "javh 1" always on and hide the close button from the hack options.
That's it no more talking. Screenshots will give you more idea about this hack.
