in my post icon manager the path to the example smiley that's not showing up is:

So the path within vB is already correct. They work fine from within vBulletin but not on the front page.

Just bumping my question.

Hi there - still loving your portal!! However, I would like to use the Shout bar from vbindex on this as well.

Fisrtly, would that be a problem for you? I mean, would you be offended if we mixed and matched? Secondly, how the hell would I do that?

Nmidia - If you can figure out how to port the shoutbox from vBindex, then there's no problem here. You may want to check with them though as they may require a copyright notice or something like that since you're using their script. I will be making a shoutbox as an add-on for this soon... I'm working on getting vbadvanced.com up (hopefully by next week) where we will provide support for this scripts, hacks, and other stuff.

Casparian - I'm not quite sure I know what you mean by the spaces and comments in the who's online list... As far as the colors, I'm assuming that you're acomplishing that through the "Username HTML Markup" option, right? I'll be sure that's added in the next version. I don't think listing the online users in rows will ever be the default way it's done since that could cause that box to become huge, but I could probably release a hack for it once vbadvanced.com is up and running.
As for the "Unknown Location" on the Who's Online page, there is a fairly easy way to fix that. I'll have to find the code and post it when I have more time... Just an FYI though, only admin's will see the "Unknown Location" text - regular members will just see that they are on the forum's index page. ;)
To make your header look like your forum header, you will need to modify your index_header and index_footer templates to match your forum ones.
As for moving the blocks around, those can all be modified in the index template. Everything is well commented, so as long as you know at least a little HTML then it shouldn't be hard at all to move them where you wish.

Rids - I think the problem with the icons is that it's pulling them from the icon cache rather than the actual path that's in the database... At least that's the only thing I can figure since everything else does seem to be correct. Try modifying your thumbsup icon, just save it in the icon manager without making any changes, and let me know if that makes a difference.
I may need to throw some code in there to update the icon cache after the image paths are modified...

Yep, that worked, as soon as I saved the icon and refreshed it was there

Glad that worked. I figured that had to be it. I'll be sure to add some code in to update the icon cache for the next version... Damn Jelsoft and all their new caching and other optimizations. :p

Thanks Tigga, I must say I'm loving this addon (it a lot more than a hack) :)

Thats great new mate. I think I will be waiting for you then.

Hello Tigga,

i like vBadvanced very much! Well done.

I've had a small problem with too much cells in the minicalendar. But after reading this thread and doing what i was told now it works very nice.

Thank you for your work!

glad you like it :)

Ok, for my users who are not logged in / not registered I would like to display a box ie "custom 1" which will display ads from google.

However if they are registered and logged in I do not want them to see these ads.

I know VB has usergroup options, how do I setit up so if the usergroup is the unregistered/not logged in to show custom1 but for any other usergroup to not display it?

Any TECHNICAL detail on how to do this would be great. (like actual code) :)

Thanks in advance.
