History:
I'm sure most of us are aware of trilOByte's popular Welcome Hack (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=33477) that was available for vBulletin 2.
I myself had it installed on my vB2 forums, and after upgrading to vBulletin 3 missed it, so, seeing as nobody else had, I decided to make my own version.


Description:
This hack does two things:
1. It alters the look of your forum's index page by reducing the size of the "What's Going On" box to just one line (more if birthdays / calendar events present). This box is also shifted up to the top of the page, beneath the navbar.
2. The information that it strips out of that box is not lost though as it is moved up in to the navbar box at the top of the page. The general statistics are only displayed on the forum homepage, as well as your avatar, and the number of new-posts and active-threads since your last visit. On all other pages, the navbar remains as it was.


Zip Contents:
welcome_hack_vb3_v1_2.zip
|- instructions.html (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=16041&stc=1) :: Instruction on how to install this hack.
|- forumhome_loggedin.gif (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=16042&stc=1) :: Shows what your ForumHome will look like after installation with a logged in user.
|- others_in_and_out.gif (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=16043&stc=1) :: Shows screenshots of the hack in various states, plus a screenie of the vB2 version.
|- noavatar.gif :: Placeholder for those users who don't have an avatar set.
`- guestavatar.gif :: Placeholder avatar for guest viewers.

Testing:
Tested on vBulletin 3 RC 2


Files to Modify:
forumroot/index.php


Templates to Modify:
forumhome
navbar


Phrases to Add:
active_threads
info_forum

Yes, I've been waiting for a vB3 welcome hack. Two things;

- I personally would just use the index page bit. Sending queries to every page can be server intensive and global.php has two queries to add. If someone tells me two queries to every page makes bugger-all real difference to the server I'll be a happy man.

- Any chance of guest/no-avatar-selected additions like the original vB2 hack? I can see why you've opted not to show the guest one. Room needed for the login section. Hmm... See, I made customised versions of those avatars and the guest avatar made the place much more inviting.

Hack looks and works great, apart from a couple of little things.

Whenever a member is logged in, where it says new posts and new threads, instead of a number there is just a single black X

When someone is logged in without an avatar, it is looking for an image, with the url insertdomainhere.com/forums/{ imgdir }(without the spaces)/noavatar.gif

(the domain being whatever site it is installed upon)

EDIT: i've rehacked 3 times now, and readded all the templates etc, and it's still doing it, any ideas?

Thank you for pointing this out, I'd completely forgotten to add the image and accompanying instructions.

I think I know why it's displaying a single black X as well, I will report back in about a half hour with an updated instructions file.

I had thought abuot this myself; having two extra queries per page in global.php is a bit much.

What I might do now (seeing as I've got to do some other bits anyway) is alter the conditionals so that the New Posts and New Threads only display on the Forum Index.

Any other thoughts on this?


I'm going to look at the template now, see if I can alter it to accommodate a 'guestavatar' option as well. :)

Hwulex
01-19-2004, 07:06 PM
Ok. X problem for NewPosts and ActiveThreads is now sorted. I'd accidently pasted a testing template into the instructions rather than my live version. Apologies.

I have also added noavatar.gif and it's instructions to the package.

Update to 1.1. File in first post updated.

Those of you who would like to sort the above X problem quickly, then update to version 1.1, else, please wait about another half an hour and I will upload 1.2 which reduces the queries (only used in index.php) and also has the guestavatar facility.

Cheers.

Hwulex
01-19-2004, 07:45 PM
Version 1.2 uploaded. See original thread for updated zip and changes from last version. :)


For those of you running versions 1.0 or 1.1, you basically just need to move the queries from global.php into the same place as the other alterations in index.php, upload the two images, and then replace your navbar template with the new one in the instructions file.

It would seem that this welcome panel needs to be made more compatible with 800x600 resolution. Also, the presentation doesn't work well with larger avatars.

I'll post a screenshot of what I'm getting on 800x600 resolution;

There's nothing I can really do abuot that. Obviously, the larger the avatar you use, the worse it's going to look.

As for the 800x600 resolution; you could try shortening some of the phrases?

Actually; looking again at your screenshot, you've not actually done any of the phrase edits! I would imagine that would reduce the problem by about half at least! :D

Zelda-King
01-19-2004, 10:26 PM
Yes, that's right. I didn't do the phrase edits in that screenshot. I took it while I was trying something, but it didn't occur to me that shortens the sentences so I'll be back with an update.

EDIT: Actually that did sort out the problem. I owe you an apology.

That's the main reason I edited the phrases because I had the same problem to start with. :)

I'm not sure I understand what you mean, sorry.

At the moment, if a guest views the boards they will get an avatar reading 'Guest Please Register', and this avatar is a link to the registration page.

If you would like the avatar to read something different, then just create your own new one. :)

Love the hack..one of my fav's atm.. but I just have one prob/question..

In your screen shot of the forum you posted look in the visitor Info section..

Online now: 20
`- 5 members and 15 guests

Is this an error maybe as its the same on my page also..

Hwulex
01-23-2004, 10:22 AM
The `- is meant to show that the breakdown of "X members & X guests" is a branch from the "Online Now" part. If you do not like it, it is easily editable in the navbar template. :)

You could make the welcome hack appear on every page, but you need to make some changes to index.php and global.php, as well as replace your navbar template.

The navbar changes I've got sorted, but I need to finalise the changes in global.php and index.php. If it doesn't take too long, I will try and work it all out for you. It will add around 5 queries per page though, just so you know.

Cyricx
Ok, I have mocked up this for you. It's not the most efficient thing in the world, and could add anything up to ten or twelve queries per page (as it's all called in global.php).

I have not re-written the biggest of the code/queries used here for getting the online users as it's too much work for me to do right now. This does, however, work. But please bear in mind that if you use the welcome hack on every page, you lose the original functionality of the navbar all together. You could of course modify the template to show the navbar underneath the welcome hack, perhaps, but I have not done that here.

The attached instructions are not comprehensive in their installation from scratch. You will still need the original instructions for phrase edits. Use the file edits and template additions from these ones though.

Cheers

It appears the phrases regarding PMs don't show if you have PMs disabled. I can't say for sure because I modded this hack for my board. You may wish to test it in any case.

How do I edit the phrases? I am using RC4? I think it was made it so you purposefully cant edit the standard phrases. Did I miss a hack for that or should this be done via a query in the DB?

Hwulex

Edit the phrases in the Phrase MAnager, the same as you would for any other phrase.

As for the no-pm thing, I'll look into that later. :)

Suggestion!

From a hackers point of view.......

could you please amend your install instructions to replace a part of the navbar template instead of replacing the whols template?

Reason for this is because a lot of other hacks edit the dropdown menus for one reason or other. I can see a somebody stuffing up his board navigation (if it already hasnt happened) where he has previously edited the navbar and then followed your instructions and wiped the lot out :)

Please remember to only edit code where it is required, it might be easier to replace a whole template to add a hack ... but can undo others hard work.

Just a heads up :)

Cut down on some load.If you're already using the above hack, you can use the variables that you need from it in place of what he has for those variables in his hack and take out the queries you no longer need and save some server abuse. ;) That way you could use it on every page if you wanted to without adding any extra queries to those pages.

To do that, you'd simply have to edit the HTML.

Easy enough to do yourself. Unfortunately I don't have the time, or will, to do such things atm.

Yes, I know it's only a matter of playing with the HTML but I have been but I'm confused because of the whole if/else coding! Every time I try, I end up with the guest avatar along with my avatar displayed at the same time, then the navbar goes missing, lol. I had the VB2 welcome panel hacked nicely, but with the new coding I have to get used to it. So if anyone is willing to provide the same look as the VB2 welcome panel, I will be forever grateful!

I'm not so sure you have the code for Unread in your downloaded data as I'm the 3rd user who the PM link hasn't worked for. Either that or the 3 of us aren't too bright LOL. In any case it's a great hack and many thanks... if you can help us fix the PM part that'll just be icing on the cake!

OK I figured out the PM Unread link issue... your instructions don't include the vBPhrase addition for "unread"

I added a global vBphrase Varname: "unread" with the Text: "Unread" and now the link works perfectly. You may want to add this to your instruction set, other than that GREAT job!

Trying to get rid of the ' - partYou need to go to the Nav Bar template and edit it out of the HTML. It's pretty simple, just find the ` and delete it. You can customize that text any way you want.

For example, I moved all of that text up onto the same line as the Online Now line and placed it in parentheses. Then I added code for the current time on the bottom line in the free space I had freed up.

I am a bit tied up at the moment as i've just been offered a new job 300 miles away, which I have to move for inside two weeks, and in that time I have a 7 day vacation. Sorry but I just don't have the time to look at fixes for v3.0.1. Hell, I didn't even know there was an upgrade. :(

Hwulex,

I hope the move and job goes well and I'll just keep an eye for a reply.

Anyway, maybe someone else has seen this. I have vbadvanced. On the forum home the total amount of member isn't showing nor is the newest member. But on all other areas (vbadvanced included) it shows up correctly. And when in vbadvanced the number of members online double.... :confused:

Thanks in advanced,
TD

You get an error when loggin out if you upgraded to vb3.0.1. This hack has you replace the navbar template, which causes the error. Can we get an updated version of this hack for people who upgraded to 3.0.1?


I'm not getting any sort of error and I upgraded to 3.0.1... Works perfectly...

Actually when I click "logout" it says "An error occurred while attempting to log you out. Click here to log out."

When you "Click here" It says: "All cookies cleared!

Return to the page you were previously viewing
Go to forums index"

I think this is what he is talking about. This happens to me on 3.0.1

Got a fix for you guys on 3.0.1

The hack has you insert all of the code, which is the following, for the logout portion
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="login.php?$session[sessionurl]do=logout" onclick="return log_out()">$vbphrase[log_out]</a></td>


To fix the error, simply add &u=$bbuserinfo[userid] at the end of the a href so it should read
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="login.php?$session[sessionurl]do=logout&u=$bbuserinfo[userid]" onclick="return log_out()">$vbphrase[log_out]</a></td>

Let me know if that works for you, did the charm for me.

OK, works fine for 3.0.1. But what happened to the Users Online?

I am not sure, I modified the template a good amount. There is language code for users online.

If you'd like I can copy/paste my navbar code for you.

I noticed that this welcome bar's TOTAL POSTS does not count posts that are in non-active (closed) forums. Any idea how I can get this to include the posts that are in these forums as well?

Does this even work with 3.0.1! I ask because I installed it and nothing is showing except for "Who's Online".....

And if it does, what changes do I need to do to make it work!!!

Thanks

OK, I figured it out!!! Thanks....But now that I have not read all the posts, which I will do, but hoping someone could just point me into the right direction on this issue now...

The "PM" is not highlighted for a member to get his PM's! was there a correction for this?

Same thing happens to me. The code that someone further up here provided was already in there so it's not that - I can't figure out what it is.

Can anyone help?

That's in the Navbar template - just search for it in there. It's somewhere down towards the end since it's in the row of links in the actual navigation area.

Okay guys, I figured this out after all - clearing the cookies would do it.

So if you get that funny error message, all you need to do is clear your cookies, and the next time you logout you won't get that message again.

I don't know why this would happen - I'm sure there's some explanation. Apparently some of my members will not get it to work even after clearning their cookies, but maybe that's just a problem with their browser or computer. I just installed it - I'll try it out a few days and see how people react and what problems might arise.

Other than that - this is a really cool hack. Thanks :)

there is a possibility that this hacks runs on a non-vbulletin website?
like a php include

obviusly changing a lot of stuff or even make a completely new mod, but with the same result on my CMS home? (postnuke) but its possible?

I'm getting this error as well. I've used the above fix by clearing the cookies, is there any other way?

I'm also having a problem with new posts. This didn't happen until I installed this hack, but when someone reads a new post it still shows up in "new posts". :ermm:

Thank you for the hack though, this is really awesome :)
