The template is limited_guest_viewing which you can apply css directly to or via a stylesheet.

If you'd like this done for you I suggest trying the Paid Services request forum which has a number of great freelancers.

I figured it out. The way to do it inline (which I was trying to avoid) is the add to the <div style = ...> line. I used which worked great. I wish I could have added something to additional.css and done it that way but in the end it works, so for others' future reference this is how you can change the color.

Thanks Ted for your mod support.

Hello,
Is there a language file Arabian product ?

Just english.

Thank you ..

Any help please ?
I'm using vbb 4.1.11 and LGV seem to be not working (just for me T^T)
It doesn't block any guests after x views and also doesn't show up any block page
Just block guest option is working fine
I know that LGV suppose to work fine because it even work fine on 4.2 but it happen to me so i relly need help
Demo: GTOPVN | Fansite of G-Dragon and TOP
Test ID: MarkChan | 1111111

There's no reason why it wouldn't work on 4.11 so I'd suggest double checking your settings, insuring you've enabled it in the thread forum you are viewing, and seeing if the LGV cookie is set.

That said we can't debug backwards past the last few versions [i.e. 4.2.0 would be fine] as it's really always smart to be running near the latest.

This is my setting for LGV:
I don't know did LGV conflict with any other mod ? or friendly url ?

Hi Ted,

I am using the 3.8 mod and receiving emails of SQL error

Can you please advice what to do?

Thanks

This mod, or at least this version of it, is for vB4 and should not be used on 3.

Just what I was looking for. Thank you!
Is it possible to add a rounded or squared box around the text like the other message above?

see attachment.

Use CSS to format the messages however you want but note, standard templates are used to create the messages and will show changes elsewhere.

i am using the vb3 mod not this one

the only reason i posted here is its supported and they are not :)

You'll need to post to the right thread to get anywhere. vB3 questions in a vB4 thread just confuses everyone.

But you are correct, we no longer support vB3 mods although they are updated for bug releases & essential features.

Thank you Ted! working without issue in 4.2

The background color for the 2nd picture... that needs changed. What is pulling the background from and where in your code so it can be changed? I have a general idea where it's pulling from and it's not something I can change the background of for other reasons, so I need to be able to change it in the code to this mod.

Thanks

Nevermind. I just replaced the class in

<div class="thread_controls lgvcontrol"

with one that had a more suitable backghround for me (I used the one for Notices)

Excellent Mod by the way!

Thanks!

I've looked through this thread, but can't see my question anywhere...

What effects does this plugin have on Google spiders?

Will Google / Yahoo / Bing bots get this (error message) when spidering my forum?
Or will they by pass this register page?

The mod is great, I would just like to know will it damage the site from an SEO point of view?

You must have missed post #1 and the included instructions also.

Could you instruct in more details for me please?

will it work with version 4.2 ?
Please let me know.

Yes, it work with 4.2

Find the Template for : "limited_guest_viewing"

and find : <div class="thread_controls lgvcontrol">

and I replaced it with :

<div class="navbar_notice_1">

Whatever the color is for the background of your Notices will appear

If a mod is marked 4.x you should assume it works with all versions of the 4 series. If you find otherwise it's a bug. :D

It's an HTML class which you can either modify to use another class, edit the css for or move inline for styling. If you don't know how do to any of that there's a great primer on styling at www.w3schools.com

And now I feel like a dumbass, its even in red now!

I read through the thread looking and never spotted it, I'm my own defence I had eye surgery on Monday if that's worth anything.

Thank you for the reply, I'm really looking forward to trying this mod out.

Thank you for helping me. However, after changing template, nothing changes for take over message on my site. Here is the code:
I have searched for navbar_notice_1 class on my site but couldn't see it.

with this mod forum trafic will down?
any one test it ?

Restricting people from viewing content will always reduce reading. The lower the limits, the higher the impact and I'd certainly never suggest less than 5 or really even 10 views before shutting someone out.

From there the question is what brings more value to your community overall.

The class exists to let you customize the style. If you don't know how to do that I posted a resource before that can help teach you the basics.

Eliminate the "_1" and try "navbar_notice".

i install and check this in who is online after install it show to google spider error message
now uninstall

What were your settings? What was the error?

So db tracking is preferred so there is no effect on the search engines?

It's not preferred but for many it's a better option as it survives beyond a cookie clearing.

For search engine impact be sure to read the first post and install guide which sums up the known risks.

thanks :D

When I have LGV enabled, the rechapka verification always fails when attempting to reset password. Always works (password reset) when LGV is disabled. Have not heard of any effect on rechapka verification for new registrations.

Running vb 4.2.0P3 and LGV 2.1.0.

Please advise.

LGV doesn't touch the CAPTACHA system or any of the registration code. What are your settings?

I've installed it on our forum, works a treat. Marked as "Installed". Thank you very much.
