lol... ne cunoastem PET ?!?! :D

... actually, when vB3 Gold is released we want to upgrade royouth to vB3 and PhotoPost 4.6.6 .... so we 'get with the times' :) ...

as i was saying.. do i know you?! please PM me if you are a member on royouth :)

Cosmin,
It isn't photopost...it's a gallery in the beta stages that, imo, is much, much better...the coolest thing is, it's in the works by Tigga which is why it will easily intergrate with vB including his vBadvanced. :)

How are you calling the photos?

That's a Tigga question. I'm pretty sure the mod will be available for everyone once he releases his gallery on www.vbadvanced.com :)

Can someone check out www.clantt.com and let me know why my news posts are starting to come out of the main table?

Thanks in advance :)

I probably won't be using his gallery unless there is a Photopost importer. I already have a remote image script for Photopost, I just don't know how to use it in the templates. :confused:

very nice and easy to install portal :)

how much skills do you need to make other vbadvance pages, becus i read the how to and am still completly lost.

I remember reading somewhere in all these posts someone requesting to have the right column disappear when using the ?page=blah fucntionality with this hack.

Please forgive me if I am repeating someone else's work, but I cannot find that post again.

I have slightly adjusted the index template to be able to do this. i.e. when you call: http://www.yourdomain.com/index.php?page=blah then the right column disappears. Under all other instances it stays.

Here's how to do it:

in your index template under the index group find the following code:above that add:then find the following code:and add below that:then save the template. Now the right column will disappear when using the ?page=blah functionality. Simple, but effective.

This is of course assuming that you haven't changed the positions of the right column items. Of course, you can manipulate it to your heart's content, just make sure that the if conditional is above the <td> line for the right column, and that you close it before the last </td> and it will work.

Hope someone can find this useful.

you can see this in action at: http://www.noblepagan.com (with right column), and at http://www.noblepagan.com/index.php?page=testing (without right column).

not much actually, simply add a template to your forum with the name of index_*whatever* (*whatever* being the name of the page), then call it with: http://www.yourdomain.com/index.php?page=*whatever* (*whatever* being equivalent to the *whatever* in the template name you added).

within the template put the HTML coding you want to use for that page. It will only do HTML from what I can tell, as no PHP code is EVAL'd from what I can see. Please correct me if I am wrong in this.

So basically the only thing that you'd need to know is basic HTML, and what variables you are going to use from VB.

)O( Cloudrunner )O(

The only thing besides HTML that can be used in the templates are the if conditionals ;) which allow smiple if statments (like php) to be run :)

kinda what I thought. Thanks for the clarification!

hey guys, I have vb advanced modified so that I have one main index page w 2 columns, and then another content page for my addon pages that only has a left column.

However, i have a video database on my site, and i would like to use the news style function as a way to display all my videos on a content page. So bassically, is it possible to still have news on main page, and another like system w a diff template (so i can make it look more like a video listing than a news post)

I posted a while back with a problem with the images (I've only just got my computer back to post this!) and tried the suggestions offered.

The problem is, the broken link is linking to the icons. And when posts have an icon selected, they DO appear - But no icon selected, means there shouldn't be an image - Yet a broken image link appears, even though its not linking to an icon! >_< Would some kind of clear.gif file sort it, and if so, how do I get it to recognize it? I don't know how to make it stop with the broken image linking thing >_>

If all else fails, is there an easy way to uninstall the Homepage and return image locations etc back to normal?

All help is really appreciated.. There is nothing more ugly than a broken image link on a website :(

I don't know if this is the best way to do it or not, but it's what I'm using to call php files on my VB2 forums and it works for displaying thumbnails in the vBadvanced custom blocks for VB3 as well.

This is for use with the Photopost thumnailincluder hack as a file.

In the phpinclude_start template, add

Then add $photo to your custom block template to display the thumbnail.

hi this is gr8 hack :)

anyone know why i am getting this problem with the latest topics ??

everything else is gr8 ;)

considering installing...

is there a way to display a php script as a center block?

set your default post icon setting in your vboptions in admincp. That will sort it out, make sure you use the FULL http://address (which is contrary to what it tells you in the admincp, ignore that).

The short answer is "yes". Check over at http://www.vbadvanced.com for more details.

great portal
but :)
i need at least some of the side bars to be present at all the pages, is that possible ?
any way to make that happen without recoding a large part of my page ?
i already added a custom side bar of my own, but readding one to the entire site seems, well depressing :(

also, as a side suggestion i think you should make the avatar image apear only if selected (aka an option to remove it) i do not encourge people to use avatars in my forums and had to remove the code from your script

but still,
a great portal

im having errors with images ive uninstalled it and reinstalled it 3 times.

any advice cause im at breaking point?

Jason,

I've just looked at your site and I'm assuming you're having problems with images not being displayed?

If this is the case then I've found the fix for you :)

In the first part of the installation where you specify your image directory you have missed out /board/ from the URL - should read http://www.str8ballin.com/board/images/misc for the "Misc" entry etc.

Hope this helps you mate.

Kevin

This doesn't seem to work with RC 4

working with RC4 just fine @
http://www.digitalkore.net
http://www.vbadvanced.com
http://www.usshomestarrunner.com

^_^

Yeah thanks for the help Kevin, what was the error for me in my image pathcs I was putting 'board/images/misc/' and that was erroring but with a direct url it works so anyone else having trouble with images try setting your image paths as a full url example like this..

http://www.str8ballin.com/board/images/misc

Plus yes my site is Vb3 release candidate 4 and it seems to work fine..so far!

Problem:

News forum ID has been set correctly, and set to a limit of 5 news items. However, only one shows, and then only the title/author etc - NO news text at all.

Any ideas?

I understand how to make a custom template

but how do i make a custom block

and what determines what side the block shows up on?

i want a custom SIDEBLOCK-not center block :)

One other thing I had a problem with, the navbar link to johns v3 arcade directed me to /arcade.php in the root directory not to the vbulletin directory which is.. board/arcade.php

this was fixed again editing the navbar template to point to a direct address ( http://www.mysite.com/board/arcade.php )

bumping my problem :(

i am also using RC4

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=662

or scroll up to my last post

have you just upgraded from vBulletin 2?

Yes :)

I just installed this at http://www.stangcountry.com looks good so far.
I would like to add a box just above where the post shows up in the middle collum.
Can I get a hint.... I seem to be able to move the ones on the side.

thanks
Scott

This hack may what your looking for. https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=60326

Mark you need to update all your counters and reindex the board, like the upgrade instructions tell you to.
