The Legend of Speedy

Mmm... go to PHPMYADMIN, to the "setting" table, and go to the very end, and drop the extrav duplicate columns. I cannot give you the query to drop them since the settingids for every database is different depending on how many hacks you have added to it.

I dont see that I see this . .

Field Type Attributes Null Default Extra Action
settingid smallint(5) UNSIGNED No auto_increment Change Drop Primary Index Unique Fulltext
settinggroupid smallint(5) UNSIGNED No 0 Change Drop Primary Index Unique Fulltext
title varchar(100) No Change Drop Primary Index Unique Fulltext
varname varchar(100) No Change Drop Primary Index Unique Fulltext
value mediumtext No Change Drop Primary Index Unique Fulltext
description mediumtext No Change Drop Primary Index Unique Fulltext
optioncode mediumtext No Change Drop Primary Index Unique Fulltext
displayorder smallint(5) UNSIGNED No 0 Change Drop Primary Index Unique Fulltext
With selected: Or

I dont know if this is readable to you though :-\

When you see that, click on "Browse". A list of all your setting options will be displayed. Go to the last page, and the latest settings should display. DROP the duplicate ones.

thankx ;) that worked like a charm ;)

I installed this and if I set it to restrict code to staff it doesn't allow anyone to use the code. Works if you set it so everyone can use it.

Not even staff?

Nope not even staff. Only way staff can use it is to turn the staff only button to off

Update 2.3 - Fixed Staff Only Bug

As GeorgeofCS pointed out, there was a bug in version 2.2 - if you turn on the "Staff Only" option, it stops everyone including staff from using the vBCode in Custom User Titles.

I've fixed this in version 2.3. You can download the latest ZIP file. You can upgrade manually by doing this:

In member.php, find:

Replace with:

Sorry for the bug - I missed it because I don't use the Staff Only option. Enjoy!

Nice:)

Can this be set up so i could asign the feature by each user instead of user group and can it be set up. so members can turn the html off from the edit options page

Hi Erwin,

I have just installed your hack version 2.3, it's great.

I have set it up this way:
Enable HTML: Yes
Maximum smilies: 4
Enable vbCode: Yes
Restrict vBCode or HTML to Staff: No

The problem i have, is that I can use vbCode without problems, but not HTML, although HTML is on.

(i am running vBulletin 2.2.7)

Could you please help? thank you very much.

You have enabled HTML for all users? Mmm... I will look into it...

Darn it...

First of all, change $customhtml to $customhtmlon in member.php (the code to add).

That was my mistake. Wrong name to variable, forgot the on.

However, that only makes the HTML show up - it doesn't parse it. I will figure it out given time. :) Have to sleep now.

Update version 2.4 - Fixed it so you can use either HTML or vBCode

This fixes the bug that prevents you from using HTML in your Custom User Title. When you switch HTML to ON, you will be able to use HTML in your custom user titles, but you won't be able to use vBCode (you can only use one or the other at the moment).

To upgrade, just download vbcodetitle24.zip, and replace the old code with the new updated code.

Sorry for the update! :) Just fixing the bugs as they are found.

Cololies Erwin:)

Thank you very much Erwin!

I have just upgraded and it is working now. :)

Very Nice!! Installed!!

Erwin, you don't know how many Lurkers on my boards have been after something like this! Now they can tart up their profiles to their heart's content :D

Thanx man.

I installed this on vB 2.2.9 and it wont work. Well, administrators can use HTML in their user cp (they can anyway!) but no one else can. However I put the settings makes no difference. The coding wont have any effect even for Super Moderators. vB code doesn't work at all.

Mmm... since this works on my site, and on many other sites, I suspect you installed this hack wrong. Try reapplying the hack again, following each step carefully.

Can I enable this for certain groups and not all users?

You can choose between all users, or just moderators. Anything else requires code changes to my hack. :)

i got a major problem :(
i installed the first part of the hack and now i have 2 entries in the database for the same option
how do i remove one of them

2 choices:

1) Go to phpmyadmin and delete the extra entries manually.

OR

2) Go to your admin directory, and run the setting.php file.

Go down to the extra entries and click REMOVE.

The 2nd option is by far easier.

Thanks Erwin it worked a charm :D

MAJOR UPDATE!!!

Version 3.0

I've added a Custom User Title Editor, with vBCode and Smilie Panel, to make it easier for your members to use vBCode and Smilies (and optional HTML) to spruce up their custom user titles. :)

There is even a Preview Panel at the bottom of the Editor, to make it easier for your members.

Also, just for fun, I added options to integrate with Lesane Store Hack or Shinra Points Hack.

To be honest, this was easy to code for my forums, but to write out the instructions to be released was a headache.

Updated ZIP file and instructions in first post.

Enjoy, click install, and if there are bugs, post here!

Screenshot of Custom User Title Editor
-------------------------------------------------

This hack is backward compatible with the older versions - just follow the Upgrade.txt instructions.

There may be bugs, as the code used here is different to how I use it on my site. :) Let me know.

Would it be possible to update the files for Lesane's Store Hack integration? The code it refers to is no where near the same anymore (at least for 2.3.0, I'm not sure about 2.2.8 or 9) There isn't even a members.php. The main install file seems to make the right references, but the store hack files don't nearly at all.

There is a text file in my zip called LesaneStoreHack.txt is to be applied AFTER you follow the instructions in the NewInstallation.txt file. :)

Wow! Nice update, I'll have to install this when I have time....

Ok I did the upgrade as said but when I click on the link in the edit user profile/click here for the custom user title editor it just takes me to a blank page?

Ok disregard my other post as I figured it out and it works great. Thanks for the hack Erwin.

That's nice to hear that it works great for you. :)

Erwin, you rock man. :)

Will install this soon!

Okay, thanks. Works great. I think I was a little loopy yesterday or something. Don't know what was going through my head!

Okay...problem.

I installed this hack twice and I got this message both times.

Parse error: parse error, unexpected '}' in /home/elvis-bo/public_html/member.php on line 500

Any idea on how to fix this?

Also..I'm kind of new to all this "extra" coding stuff....how exactly do I do this?

This is quite complicated to install, and you need to follow the instructions exactly as posted.

You obviously installed the hack wrongly. I suggest you uninstall the hack, and redo the installation very very carefully. It works.

As for removing the variables - just find and delete the code in the instructions - they are 2 variables that need to come out of there, to be placed elsewhere in a new query.

If this sounds complicated, I suggest installing some easier hacks, to get a better understanding of PHP, before attempting this. Like I said, it's complicated. But if you follow the instructions closely, it works. :)
