Well that's up to Xenon if he wants to change the install file, not me.

i'm nowhere near a coder, but this hack is simple as h-e-double hockey sticks to install, the only thing I MAY have had a question on was the query, but I figured that out myself, (which most people need to learn how to do btw)

Hey all, I got this installed easily enough (thanks Xenon!). I noticed that some people had added post info, like last response by and thread title/time date beneath each forum in the columns, any help on doing that would be nice :D

Try to add the following variables in forumhome_forumbit_columncell

$forum[lastpostinfo] (Maybe you have to modify the forumhome_lastpostby template, to make it look nicer)
and
$forum[browsers]

Sorry, for my long absence, but the isp of my gf didn't let me get online....
now i have missed a lot of days ;)

as for a few comments on this thread: i'll remember them and maybe won't release any hacks next time, if i don't finish them. If someone has no experience in hacking his board, that's not my fault, beta versions are beta versions because they are in a beta stadium, and not yet finished, so to all of those who complaint: DON'T INSTALL BETA VERSIONS IF YOU CANNOT LIVE WITH A FEW PROBLEMS.

yes, me is a bit annoyed...

Thanks again for the lovely hack, Xenon.

I have uploaded a new version now.

The hack is no longer considered as beta, so you should all be able to use it :)
It's now using the vbulletin product system, to make the install much easier.

For those who have installed the Beta version, you have to manually drop the subforumcolumn field in forum table, before you can run the product xml file.

I'll send out an upgrade, once i have got positive feedback, that i didn't forgot something ;)

I was trying to add in the old option from 3.0 where there was a radio select button where people could select columns or not. I did everything the same way that was described in 3.0 and it's not quite working. I was wondering if you had some updated changes that could fix that for this 3.5 hack? Thanks!

Xenon

11-24-2005 05:09 PM

I don't remeber of such a modification, but it should work quite similiar, just a few variables have changed, so you might reneame those whaen porting that mod.

Thank you for your quick response before, I know you're a busy person!

replace the xx with the fieldid of your new custom field :)

that's all

i forgot to tell you, that you ahve to manipulate the template forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost as well.

find there

HTML Code:

<if condition="$forum['subforumcolumns'] > 1">

and change it to

HTML Code:

<if condition="$bbuserinfo['fieldxx'] == 'yes' AND $forum['subforumcolumns'] > 1">

I made those two conditional adjustments. On 3.0 it worked great for me, but on 3.5, this is what I'm seeing. The yescolumn.gif and the nocolumn.gif show you what my forum looks like. I've been playing with the fields and it's driving me crazy! (it's not a problem of the yes/no being case-sensitive or a wrong field number)

Oh and when I don't have the conditional in there, the columns work perfectly and I love them. I just know that some of my users want to have the 'old style' rows. If you could give me any advice, I'd really appreciate it. This is the last thing I need to fix for my 3.5 update and my forum will be ready.

Help me, Xenon. You're my only hope! :)

@Allan: you missed a step during the installation:

then it should work.

Not understand this:

Code:

replace the xx with the fieldid of your new custom field

Which custom field ???

Xenon

11-25-2005 07:03 PM

he is referring to an old addon, look into the 3.0 thread to find out :)

but not anderstand :(

I does not see the report with the hack, why creates one custom field ?

fridayweb

11-25-2005 09:35 PM

Xenon, that works PERFECT!!! Is there someway I can donate some money to you? Seriously, you just cured a four day headache for me! Much appreciated.

Allan, sorry to confuse you, I was asking about an old setup that would allow this to be user selectable. Check the other thread, and then make the small correction Xenon suggested above. :)

Xenon

11-27-2005 01:41 PM

@friday: well, you don't have to, but if you want, xenon@vbulletin.org is my paypal addy ;)

@Allan: that mod was never officially added to the hack, it's normal for such sub addons ;)

I only get thet by using a table for that!

Without testing I would try somethin like that:

Code:

<td class="alt1Active" align="$stylevar[left]" id="f$forum[forumid]" width="$column_width">

        <table>

                <tr>

                        <td><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" /></td>

                        <td><a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]f=$forum[forumid]"><strong>$forum[title]</strong></a>

                                        <if condition="$show['forumdescription']"><div class="smallfont">$forum[description]</div></if></td>

                </tr>

        </table>

</td>

Right now only my top-level forums can be shown in columns.

Thanks in advance!

i really like this except i would have hoped that it was a little neater... Like the image(status icon) is not in the same place, it varies depending on how much text the category details is, you should make it look nice and maybe fix that? it would be greatly appreciated...here is my site to look at what i mean...http://www.urban-revolution.com/forum/

Just a quick question, would it be possible to edit this hack to put the catergories in colums instead of just forums.

I ask this because i run a forum that deals with trading card games such as yugioh MTG etc and have many catergorys, so i would like to do something like what this hack does but just for catergorys.

Thanks before hand.

I'll throw in $10 if it will encourage Xenon to make this a little faster :)

( My handy search links won't really work until it's back on forum display... :( )
