Glowing BBCode Hack

[SmEdD]

I know theres a few out there. But no offence they all suck! No effort was put in on them.

Well here's my hack. 3 diffrent strenghts. 24 diffrent colors in each. And very very simple to install with easy to understand instructions. So even my Grandmother could do it.

I hope you like it. I have tested it sevrel times. Squashed all the bug I could find. But, but if you do find one don't hesitae to post. I don't think there will be one. But you can't say it's always gonna be 100% for anything.

To see an online demo head over to http://nocturnal-soldiers.com and goto the test forums if you don't want to register.

My bad. If I can figure out on how to re-upload I will but I'm still new with this stuff.

[Lethal]

I installed this and when I post a new thread or reply I get this (tested all three strengths)

7

7

7

No glow, not even the text that I typed just 7's

[SmEdD]

7 is a code in the database. You didn't set up the database part right. Go into phpmyadmin and put the Database code in.

[Lethal]

I ran the quieries that were in the text file, exactly the way they were.

[Lethal]

Ok it works now, that wierd. The first time I used Logicians Simple Query to insert the tables and then I deleted them cause it didn't work and added them with phpmyadmin and now it works. Wonder why it didn't work with logicians? I use that for everything else and it works fine.

[DeadBeat]

It doesnt work for me I cant seem to get it into the database right :( All it shows is
Test Light
Help ??

[SmEdD]

Ok you put it in your database with PHPMyAdmin?

[DeadBeat]

Ok I try to put the code in PHPMyAdmin and the SQL query/queries I get this error.....

Error

SQL-query :

INSERT INTO bbcode
VALUES (

'10', 'glowlight', '<table style=\"filter:glow(color=\\5, strength=1)\">\\7</table>', 'Glow', 'The [glowlight] tag allows you to specify the glow of your text.', '1'
)

MySQL said:


Duplicate entry '10' for key 1

[majin gotenks]

that means its already there

[DeadBeat]

lol thats no good..... how can I delete it through phpmyadmin?
sorry for silly questions.
But If I already got the code in there and its not workin I dunno what the problem is. Alls I get when I post is .....
light
medium strong

The buttons are all correct and its referencing the [glowmedium etc.. correctly.

Any ideas?
Is it because I dont have VBulletin 3?

Wouldnt think so..

Thanks for the help.

[SmEdD]

Ok goto phpmyadmin make sure there all deleted. If they are up the code numbers. So use this code.


INSERT INTO bbcode VALUES('20', 'glowlight', '<table style=\"filter:glow(color=\\5, strength=1)\">\\7</table>', 'Glow', 'The tag allows you to specify the glow of your text.', '1');

INSERT INTO bbcode VALUES('21', 'glowmedium', '<table style=\"filter:glow(color=\\5, strength=2)\">\\7</table>', '[glowmedium=red]Glow', 'The tag allows you to specify the glow of your text.', '1');

INSERT INTO bbcode VALUES('22', 'glowstrong', '<table style=\"filter:glow(color=\\5, strength=3)\">\\7</table>', '[glowstrong=red]Glow', 'The [glowstrong] tag allows you to specify the glow of your text.', '1');

I'll make some other BB codes based on this.
Like DropShadow and two more. Interested?

[BlackDeath]

it works but the text displaying all the colors possible mess up the alignment of the new thread. any thoughts?

[sweet22]

[SmEdD]

What Internet Program you useing?

Try IE. I think glow text is only in IE.

[sweet22]

i am running ie

[SmEdD]

hmmm . . . I have no clue.

Are you useing vB 2.3.0 or 2.3.2?

[sweet22]

vb 2.3.2

[SmEdD]

That is why. All the code was changed. I'll take a look at 2.3.2 code late today and fix it :)

[sweet22]

thanks alot=) :banana:

[sh-demon]

ok forgive the newb question here but how exactly do i run the query on the database. Im in phpmyadmin but its kinda confusing there.

[Joshua Clinard]

This looks like a great hack. I am starting my forum next week with vB3 b5. Are you going to port this to vB3 when it's RC? I hope so, I would really like this hack!

[SmEdD]

@sh-demon In phpmyadmin at the top in the left frame it will have the db name. Click on it and it brings up alot of stuff and then go to where the white input box is and copy and paste the query into it and click go.

@Joshua Clinard Check out my signature ;)

[lioncool1589]
