Thanks a loooooooooooooooooooooooot.

I changed the code to only show to members.
I'm using it to remind people to vote.

Is there a code I can use to make it only show once per session?

You can see this vbulletin conditionals: http://forum.vbulletinsetup.com/f18/...list-2185.html

Love the modification, but how do I change the color of the word "register" link in the pop up? It's white and I would like to change it to something so that it for example appears red instead of white, how do I do this?

Thanks.

Change this code

Code:

<a href="$vboptions[bburl]/register.php" title="Register to $vboptions[bbtitle]">register</a>

To this

Code:

<a href="$vboptions[bburl]/register.php" title="Register to $vboptions[bbtitle]"><font color="color">register</font></a>

Change "color" with your preferred color

Can anyone tell me if this affects google or other search bots in a negative manner?

Hey,
maybe someone can help, this mods works fine but menu shows in the background, see www.sphynxlair.com
thanks in advanced. Oh and where do i add rel="nofollow" for bots etc. Whats odd is it does not show on desktop but only on lap top?

Tommy,

Try changing this code:

Code:

<style type="text/css">

<!--

#sponsorAdDiv {position:absolute; height:1; width:1px; top:0; left:0;}

-->

</style>

<script type="text/javascript">

And making it go down a bit... i.e.

Code:

<style type="text/css">

<!--

#sponsorAdDiv {position:absolute; height:1; width:1px; top:30px; left:0;}

-->

</style>

<script type="text/javascript">

That will lower it more ;) otherwise change the 30px to more :D it seems UKBL's menu mod must share some similar.. something or just not implemented right? Not 100% sure but you should be doing this...

This goes into head inlcude template not header...

Code:

<style type="text/css">

<!--

#sponsorAdDiv {position:absolute; height:1; width:1px; top:0; left:0;}

-->

</style>

<script type="text/javascript">

This into Forumhome template (otherwise if you put it in header or navbar it could pop up each time you change a page but it looks to have that set not to do it):

Still having this problem too.

And coinfs, if you can quote peoples post it would be much easier to read your instruction and who you are talking to.

in the message, your default message, i just want to add "FREE" before services, can anyone explain how to do that? Thanks

Just find this and edit the message as you wish. I've taken the liberty of adding the word free in red for you, but you can edit the entire message as you see it.

Out of interest, and on a separate matter, I want to know if it is possible to pop up with a login box for members, or perhaps 'Choose a username and password', and this brings them to the main registration page with those fields auto-filled in? I know this mod isn't supported any more, but any pointers would be appreciated, thanks.

Same here

how can i align it at the bottom left of page and let it show only once for user?

Hello,

I know this is an old thread, but I need help. Would this mod work in vBullein 4.2? We would like to encourage visitors to register and post by popping up a message when they visit our forum site. Thanks in advance for answers.

Hi,
is a simple code to add on header template.... you can try.

Okay, then. I'll try this mod in vb 4.2 though I'm not sure if it'll work since this is for vb 3.8. Thanks! I'm not a tech person so I'll just ask help from our programmer/coder.

what about if I put a different image other than our forum logo in the welcome pop-up message? Is it possible?

I tried it in VB4.2.1, it never worked for me unfortunately (the box pops up behind the navbar, but it is completely blank). Im not sure if it doesnt work for VB4.2.1 at all, or if perhaps it conflicts with one of my other mods.

shame, as it was exactly what I was looking for.
