Well, I wanted to put the welcome/last visit/new posts into a sensible paragraph, the way it is here, so that it looks like this:
Mae Govannen!, Illuvatar
The time now is 02:59 PM.
You last visited: 06-08-2002 02:53 PM.
There have been 1 new posts and 1 updated threads since then.
View New Posts

In order to do this I modified my welcometext template to include the time is and last visited stuff lines that are normally in the forumhome template.

My welcometext now looks like this:
PHP Code:
<smallfont>Mae Govannen!, <b>$username</b><br></smallfont>
    The time now is $timenow.<br>
    You last visited: $bbuserinfo[lastvisitdate].
<br>There have been <b>$getnewpost[posts]</b> new posts and <b>$getnewthread[threads]</b> updated threads since 
then. 
and the call in forum home looks like this:
PHP Code:
    <td align="right"><smallfont>$welcometext<br><b>$newposts</b></smallfont></td>
</tr> 
My index.php file still has the code to change the $welcometext to read" Today, at blah blah", but it's not working anymore.

I hope I included enough information..hehehe...can someone help me with this? :(

I've been very pleased with this hack, and know it's probably something simple, but these old eyes just aren't seeing it!

Thanks,
Illu

Thanks for the kind words about the hack! :)

Did you try doing this? https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...456#post247456

That post explains how to get the "You last visited" date to follow the Today/Yesterday format.

Boofo 06-10-2002 06:48 AM
Could that be the problem? I moved mine out of forumhome to the other template too. Wouldn't that cause it to stop working right? I akready did everything in the link you posted. :) It has to do with the welcome panel final hack, I think. :)

but that IS the puzzler now isn't it Boofo? :bunny:

Just like you all I did was template changes, to make the today thing work in the welcome piece only requires a change to the index.php file, and I didn't mess with that.

In fact here is what that piece of the index.php looks like:
PHP Code:
$getnewpost=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT count(*) AS posts FROM post WHERE dateline > '$bbuserinfo[lastvisit]'");
if ($bbuserinfo['userid']!=0) {
  $username=$bbuserinfo['username'];
  eval("\$welcometext = \"".gettemplate('forumhome_welcometext')."\";");
  eval("\$logincode = \"".gettemplate('forumhome_logoutcode')."\";");
  eval("\$newposts = \"".gettemplate('forumhome_newposts')."\";");

} else {
  $welcometext = "";
  eval("\$newposts = \"".gettemplate('forumhome_todayposts')."\";");
  eval("\$logincode = \"".gettemplate('forumhome_logincode')."\";");
}
  eval("\$bbuserinfo[lastvisitdate] = \"".vbdate($dateformat,$bbuserinfo[lastvisit]).
  " , at ".vbdate($timeformat,$bbuserinfo[lastvisit])."\";"); 
I'm thinking that maybe it has to do with the fact that I am now "calling" $welcometext from my forumhome template, but I'm not sure as to why that would affect it. :ermm:

Like yours, mine worked before I added the welcome panel final box to the top of my home page. After I moved the code in there, it stopped working in that spot. Everywhere else it seems to be working fine though. I have seen alot of times calling code meant for one place to another place does not always work. I guess that's why you have to edit more than one file most of the time to get some things to work in different places. Hopefully, someone will be able to come up with a fix for this somehow. :)

By the way: My code looks exactly like yours here, so that should tell us something, huh? :)
