Fixing bugs on my forum today I ran across this hack again and realized I could easily make it check to see if the user has a post made in the introduction thread.

----------------------------------

Assuming you have this hack installed already, and you want it to blink the introduction text UNTIL a member has made a thread in teh intro area, OR has below 10 posts (since sometimes they might now want to make a intro-thread), do this:

In index.php, find:
PHP Code:
           {
             if($bbuserinfo[usergroupid] == 2 && $bbuserinfo[posts] == 0)
                {
                  eval("\$introtext .= \"".gettemplate("forumhome_introbit")."\";");
                  $forum['title'] .= "$introtext";
                }
           } 
Replace it with:
PHP Code:
           {
             if($bbuserinfo[posts] < 10) {
             if (!$check=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT postuserid FROM thread WHERE postuserid=$bbuserinfo[userid] AND forumid=3")) {
                  eval("\$introtext .= \"".gettemplate("forumhome_introbit")."\";");
                  $forum['title'] .= "$introtext";
                }
             }
           } 
Now see where the forumid=3 is? Set this value to whatever your introduction forumid is.

And that is it. If you don't want it to check if the user has less than 10 posts, just comment out that if-statement.

Hey velocd

very nice hack. useful and simple ;)

uomoragno 03-15-2003 02:02 PM
small modification :)

In index.php, find:

PHP Code:
eval("\$forumbits .= \"".gettemplate("forumhome_forumbit_level$depth$tempext")."\";"); 
Above it place:

PHP Code:
$announcementsforumid=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT value FROM setting WHERE varname='announcementsforumid'");
if ($bbuserinfo['lastvisitdate']=='Never') {

if($forum['forumid'] == $announcementsforumid['value'] )                {
                  eval("\$introtext .= \"".gettemplate("forumhome_introbit")."\";");
                  $forum['title'] .= "$introtext";
               }
            }  
            else {
        if (($fview = get_bbarraycookie('forumview', $forum['forumid'])) > $bbuserinfo['lastvisit']) {
             $userlastvisit=$fview;
      } else {
             $userlastvisit=$bbuserinfo['lastvisit'];
             }
             if ($userlastvisit<$forum['lastpost']) {
             if($forum['forumid'] ==  $announcementsforumid['value'] )                {
                  eval("\$introtext .= \"".gettemplate("forumhome_introbit")."\";");
                  $forum['title'] .= "$introtext";
               }
           } else {
            
          }
        } 
and

PHP Code:
INSERT INTO setting (settinggroupid,title,varname,value,description,optioncode,displayorder)
VALUES ('5','Blinking Tex Forum Id','Blinkforumid','',
'Which forum do you want to use a Blinking Text? Fill in the forumid, please.','','14')");

Nice Hack! Would there be a way to call the members name in the flashing text? Something like: "c'mon {username} introduce yourself!"?

$bbuserinfo[username] would call the member's name :)
