4.2.0 pl3
Thanks, :up:

I'll seriously pay someone to get this working with showthread and postbit

Here is my Request. You don't have to help?

United-Forum CSS Sprites for 4.1.10

I'll gladly go in on this. Keep me posted.

It is a great mod, and the idea is brilliant. This is the best way to speed up the forum and reduce the load on pages. However, the main issue starts when using a customized style and there is no way to shrink down the style blocks size, but only by using colors instead of images. images that use shadow and high quality resolution have big impact on the server load and then the page load.

I think there must be a way how to gather up all customized images for a style in Sprites and then use that Sprites to render all custom style as one piece.

sorry for my English if it is not clear.

Cheers

Icon not show good

Now instal https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=152931 Template Modification System icon forumdisplay not show ?

Is there any way to fix this error?

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachmen...1&d=1363026265

Do a refresh of the CSS-sprites from the admin panel - clear browser cache - reload your site.

I did that multiple times...

It just messed up everything, lol.
Uninstalled.

I'm probably too stupid to use it. :)

I had the same issue and this fixed it:

I'm afraid that doesn't work for me, the icons are still vanished/hidden.

i get the following MySQL error on install:

Database error in vBulletin 4.1.12:

how i can handle this?

Getting same issue. When United-Forum CSS Sprites is enabled the ability to double click icon to mark forum read does not work.

When disabled it works like it should.

Anyone know how to get it so the double click feature works with CSS Sprites?

Database error in vBulletin 4.2.1:

Cheers,

thanks my friend, now working.

At first I thought this was really good, but I have hit a snag.

Since installing this and TMS I have lost the Forum Icons.

I'm using 4.2.1

Style: Breeze

I've disabled this MOD, and the TMS MOD but I still have no forum icons, help please.

EDIT
I uninstalled the TMS and the icons have re-appeared.

CSS MOD still disabled

This doesn't work with TMS on 4.2, I am getting the same errors as posted above (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=616).

The link to the page 37 didn't help (I did not find anything useful), any ideas what should I do to fix it?

I read this but not it would apply as I don't have a custom icon manager installed.

I don't think the link to the manual is going to the correct place any more.

Is that my issue or is it something else?

Also on this pages instructions you mentioned there will be a new variable and I need to configure to my file structure. Sorry, but I have no idea how to do that.

My default them is broken at the moment as i need to upgrade. But I also looked at the default thing and it is doing the same thing. I checked my write permission on the sprite folder and it is 755 which is writable on my server.

link to site if you need it http://cebuforum.org

Thanks for the help.

It means to create the path to the sprite folder..eg: /sprite..Your images are missing from FORUMHOME and FORUMDISPLAY which means the mods working,just the path is wrong to your sprite folder..

Edit: This works for me vb4.2.1 https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=541

then this does not work?

well, I can't say it is working or not working...

when I upgraded to vb4.2.1 the mess started showing up. I have no issue with TMS being installed alone on my vb as well as this mod alone. when I try to install United-Forum CSS Sprites mod, an error caused by TMS database table occurs. That means it is almost there...

I could see some templates for sprites are made, but not complete...

I believe there is still some issue with this mod, and if fixed I guess it will be the most useful mod on vb.org

Good luck

by the way, why do I get this message: does not exist or is not readable.

the image is there and the chmod is 755.... so does it have to be 777!!! it always works with 755 ....

Update: no need to change the chmod from 755 for some servers. it works anyways.

I installed both mods now TMS and United css sprites, but no changes....

I successfully installed both mods without any issues on my vb 4.2.1, but no changes happened even after testing my entire site...!!!

any idea from those who use vb.4.2 and above

I have it installed and running partially on 4.2pl3. My problem is on the GD library, althoug I have GD on PHP, the plugin states that my GD library is outdated, and the minimum version is 2.0.36.

Delfi, if you have a dedicated or vps you should be able to update it.
Try this.
http://www.turnkeylinux.org/forum/su...all-gd-library

It works in 4.2.1

The problem is that the GD library is updated, tested indpendently so perhaps te problem is on the script.

I have reinstalled all files and I get some Template modifications 'incompatible' with 4,21, and the images/sprites/ is populated with some files so perhaps the error is on the condition that dispalys the message.

I installed both mods together as I applied the patch for TMS without any issues. I had one problem though. The GD lib is not compatible because mine is old version and can't update it because it is shared web hosting.

possibly I will be moving to a new web hosting instead of BH since their performance these days is not so good. "stinks :mad: "

I have verified that the problem is on the script, the part that tests the GD compatibility is wrong, even if the installed version is correct pull the error code.

I'll correct the script and see the new behaviour.

My hosting is enough for 12.000.000 pageviews month.

ok, great to know. Thanks for the valuable info.

I went ahead and did my own sprites on two different blocks; main and dynamic ...

but still the web hosting server is the spine of everything so if it is fast, using sprites is not going to do much... I think

This link worked for me as well 4.2.1

Click he icon to mark as read no longer works for me either.

4.2.0 PL3 Fixed!

hey great mod, I recently installed this with TMS on a 4.2.0 patch level 4 forum, it looks like it installed but I cannot find the button to Refresh CSS-SPRITES. It's not showing up in ACP

For cut off icons I'd recommend just editing the sprite png file manually in a graphics editor.
While you're at it, try saving it in 8-bit color format with alpha channel (transparency). Not many editors support saving in that format (but browsers display it properly), so you can use https://tinypng.com/ for example. That can reduce the sprite size by more 50%. Just make sure to compare the result image with the original to see if there's a noticeable difference.

OMG, this mod is insane! I can't believe how good this works, my site is lightning fast!

And I have a VERY custom style running on my forum, with a lot of addons and template modifications. Before it took 1-2secs to load, sometimes a bit longer depending on what as being sent or received from the server. With is mod installed, the pages load INSTANTLY, no matter what. Its so fast the browser loading bar can't even keep up. LOL.

Thank you for this mod! So far everything seems to be running correctly.

*INSTALLED & TAGGED* If I could vote for MOTM, I would!
