Sorry... what is this useful for?

[Zachery]

Ive had a few users request it for varius reasons at vBulletin.com :) <shurgs> developing self made appications that use the template system?

[burnz]

$vboptions[bburl] is better that $vboptions[abspath]

[Zachery]

$vboptions[bburl] is better that $vboptions[abspath]
Really? thats what Kier gave me :P

[burnz]

if you have install any hack that installed in a different directory it might not work bcoz of the file location...

if you use the full url, it will work on any hack that u installed.. :D

I was trying to figure out why this hadn't been an issue for me... and then I stumbled upon this in the HTML:

<base href="http://www.bowlie.com/forum/" />

:)

[Arsenik]

Perfect! It now works :nervous: Thanks Zachery.

[gmarik]

cool, can I change the whole .css file name as well to a normal one? for ecample zachery2.css

[Zachery]

Eh, that would require further modifcation, the system saves it as

style-(time*var)-id.css

[chris frolic]

beautiful. Was having some difficulties with my Photopost install and this cleared up my problems.

[Boofo]

Excellent work, Zach. I was looking for this exact thing. ;)

It has been sitting down in the depths for abit now, i had almost forgot that i had released this small bit. :)

[sabret00the]

now you got me wondering what other goodies i've missed :p

[EnriqueHavoc]

I still dont understand exactly what this does, could anyone give a clearer description of where, how and why you would use this?

When you enable CSS as a file in vBulletin, it uses a realitive path instead of a full path.

This ensure that no matter what directory your hack may be in, the CSS will be correct.

to explain, basically it's like this, when certain spiders index your site, they only do so many lines of your pages source code, saving your css as files cuts down on the space thus allowing for more of your site to get indexed and deemed as relevant. but if you got the comm bull mod installed this will allow you to have html enabled.

[SaN-DeeP]

Installed this mod,
but lot of members started facing problems after installation and i had to remove those codes.

Check attachments -> my background etc. (default vbulletin skin all disappeared ) i am using vb 3.0.3

Do you have the correct board url sandy?

[sabret00the]

you should change the ref of abspath to bburl :)

[Oblivion Knight]

Installed for the sheer hell of it.. ;)

[SnitchSeeker]

This is very good.

Not sure exactly why I would need it though.

Are you suggesting we can the vb headers for plug-ins like 4images?

If so, is there a tutorial/hack for doing that as well? Because I can't figure out how I would use this or if I need it.

My board is only one part of my site, and the entire thing is meant to be fully integrated with vb, so I will likely need this. Just help explain to me how I use it or why it is necessary.

Thanks!

We can what?

This allows you simply get a full url for your css file which is helpfull when your writing your own code for more files that are intergrated outside of vBulletin directory

[SnitchSeeker]

Oops! I typed that a bit fast. It should have read "Are you suggesting we can use the vb header to integrate 4images, etc"

[SnitchSeeker]

I installed the hack and am using it for my 4images gallery and some custom pages.

The problem I have is that each time I make a change to the style, the URL also changes. So I have to go into each page that links to the style, and edit them one-by-one!

Is there any way to... well, to do a dynamic check for a style id? That way you could also have the pages that use this show the page in the style your users have selected.

[MrNase]

It's line 284 in vB 3.0.4's global.php :)

[HuangA]

* HuangA clicks install

Thanks :)

[kall]

This works fine in 3.5.0b3 as well. ;)

(Well, I took the if out and just use it.)

[Nick0r]

Would be nice to make a plugin of this?

[Zachery]

Too bad vbulletin 3.0 doesn't support plugins ;)

[Nick0r]

Yea what about a 3.5 plugin for it ;)
