Have it on 3.6 at www.cpfools.com/forum and works perfect. Thank you for the great addition!

hey there, cool mod (installed)

Is there a way to make the stream continuous? For some reason on my forum it goes through the forums listed, waits till the last of the text clears, then starts again.

Also, there's a little browser-compliance issue:

Code:

marquee width="{$vboptions[tickwidth]}"%

makes the width of the marquee 100 pixels (if it's set to 100) in IE. Easy fix:

Code:

marquee width="{$vboptions[tickwidth]}%"

move the "%" inside the the quote, gives you the proper width in IE and firefox.

or if you want the Latest threads: bolded, add the strong tag <strong>Latest Threads: </strong> such as this:

PHP Code:


		
			
<div align="center" style="padding:7px"><marquee width="{$vboptions[tickwidth]}"% height="{$vboptions[tickheight]}" behavior=scroll scrollamount="{$vboptions[tickspeed]}" onmouseover='this.stop()' onmouseout='this.start()'><strong>Latest Threads: </strong>$ticker_titles</marquee></div>

for the second part, in the edit the plugin in the plugin manager, find vB News Ticker under forumhome_complete.
Look for     and put a - (hyphen) in between the two   symbols.

Perfect. :) Quality mod.

Installed.

Installed this and works fine - nice i must say;)

However i dont understand the forum id bit :confused: how do you know the number? and how to you get it to pull the data and display it?

the only way i can see to adjust the ticker is manually changing the text in the template - is this how it works?
Sorry im a bit new still to all this

@Burgaq - I'm looking into making it stream continuously - I've wondered that myself. Thanks for the tip on the ". My original code didn't work when I used the " that way, but didn't think to test it after changing the code to $vboptions.

@Foxsake - the forumid is the id of the forum you have created. Each forum has its own unique number assigned to it. When you click on a forum link you can see a number that is assigned to it. This will show up in the URL of the page you are browsing. Another way of seeing the forumid is to go to your admin control panel => Forums & Moderators => Forum Manager => Click on [Expand All] and then move your mouse over (hover) any of the forums you've created. Your status bar (bottom of screen) should display your forumid (number at the end of the link/url).

Color change as in background color or border color?

Also - the separators, currently you can manually edit the xml, such as this:

or in your case a / or \ - however, I can look at adding this to the options so that a user can control this from the admincp rather than having to edit it manually :). I'm not sure I follow the last part in regards to the attachments.

Ok, here's an updated XML file with the admincp control to change your spacing between news items.

All times are GMT. The time now is 05:26 AM.
