ok, so people with postbit like
http://www.xtreme-forumz.net/showthread.php?s=&threadid=431

or like this..
http://www.yaxay.com/yack/showthread.php?s=&threadid=8084

Usually creates a mess in some other files, like this one..
http://yaxay.com/yack/showgroups.php

See the the status image? for online and offline, its from the postbit, that doesn't look good now does it? so i was looking around and thought of doing this hack

Find this in showgroups.php:

postbit_offline


Replace with (all of them):

offline


Find this:

postbit_online


Replace with (all of them):

online


Now create a new template online with the following content:

<img src="{imagesfolder}/onlineimage.gif" border="0" alt="$post[username] is online" align="absmiddle">


Another new template offline with:

<img src="{imagesfolder}/offlineimage.gif" border="0" alt="$post[username] is offline" align="absmiddle">


Live Demo: http://www.xtreme-forumz.net/showgroups.php

You can do this with all your files (.php files) but the template creation only needs to be done just once..

Nice hack ;) No use to me as I only have text but it will make pages like showgroups.php look much better now.

Congrats on your first hack :D

For this code you did, a zip file won't take longer than that!
