TECK 10-03-2002 01:26 AM

Phaeton, i pm you the password. thanks for installing my hack.

LeeCHeSSS 10-03-2002 03:38 AM

TECK, I'll help you beta test with the icons...

TECK 10-03-2002 03:42 AM

np leechesss. the upgrader is done, i'm double checking some steps... it should be ready in about 2 hours.

LeeCHeSSS 10-03-2002 03:45 AM

I'll be at work in about 1.5 hours :)

TECK 10-03-2002 03:49 AM

aha... then you will probably install it when you come from work.
any other vbHomer who want to test it?

let me know, post in the thread...

nokia8860 10-03-2002 04:08 AM

Teck,

Of course I'll test!

TECK 10-03-2002 04:13 AM

ok nokia... do you have msn messenger?

add my handle:
nakkid@msnDOTcom

The Piper 10-03-2002 04:29 AM

Is there any way to integrate this with the Welcome Panel? I wanted to put it just before the articles, in the main part of the screen. I've been messing around with codes and templates for several hours now with no success. Please let me know if any of you guys have any clue on what to do.

Thanks!
Paulo

TECK 10-03-2002 04:38 AM

installing welcome panel onto your vbHL is the same like you do it in your forums.
i'm busy now to finish v3.3, i will help you after...

The Piper 10-03-2002 04:55 AM

Thanks, TECK, as I've said I've been trying to do that for quite some time now with no success. It seems it requires quite a bit of changes to be made, from my experience. Of course I may be wrong (and I hope I am). :)

TECK 10-03-2002 05:01 AM

actually no. is very easy to implement. i will help you as soon as i'm free. post an url to the actuall hack so i can tell you exacly what to do later on...

The Piper 10-03-2002 05:32 AM

The hack is located right here. Thanks again! :)

Teck-

I'd like to test your vbHome script.
URL of install is; http://macfora.com

Thanks!

LeeCHeSSS 10-03-2002 06:18 AM

I spoke with TECK on MSN (only briefly) and he said I should post how to place a search box on your vbHome page. So here goes:

Open vbHome's index.php and search for:
Code:

$templatesused.= 'home_userloggedin,home_userloggedout,home_advertisementbit,';
replace that with:
Code:

$templatesused.= 'home_userloggedin,home_userloggedout,home_advertisementbit,home_search';
Next, search for (still in index.php):
Code:

eval("\$homefooter .= \"".gettemplate('home_footer')."\";");
and immediatly after it add:
Code:

// custom templates
eval("\$home_search .= \"".gettemplate('home_search')."\";");

Save and reupload index.php (as always, be sure you have a backup of the original).

Now goto your admin cp and create a new template called "home_search" and paste the following code into it:
Code:

<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="150">
<tr>
<td bgcolor="{tablebordercolor}" >
<table width="150" border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3">
<tr>
<td valign="top" bgcolor="{categorybackcolor}">&nbsp;<font color="{categoryfontcolor}"><normalfont><b>Search
</b></normalfont></font>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}"><smallfont>
<!-- Begin -->
<table align="center" border="0"><tr align="center"><td><smallfont>
<form style="margin-bottom:-2;" action="$bburl/search.php" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="s" value="$session[sessionhash]">
<input type="hidden" name="forumchoice" value="- 1">
<input type="hidden" name="searchin" value="subject">
<input type="hidden" name="searchdate" value="-1">
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="simplesearch">
<input type="hidden" name="booleanand" value="yes">
<input class="search" onFocus="this.value='';" type="text" name="query" value="For..." size="10" maxlength="150" >
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="simplesearch">
<input type="image" src="{imagesfolder}/go.gif" name="Submit" border="0" align="absbottom">
</form><b><a href="$bburl/search.php?s=$session[sessionhash]">Advanced Search</a></b>
</smallfont></td></tr></table>
<!-- End -->
</smallfont>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<smallfont><br></smallfont>

And finally, insert "$home_search" anywhere in the template "home" where you would like to have the search box show up.

Note that the box likely needs to be resized to fit your layout (this is the one i use for MY vbHome; which doesn't use the default layout).

Thanks!

smoothie, give me an hour or 2. i'm almost done with v3.3
it adds the iconews, images on the side, like postnuke and a search box.

as soon as i upload the script i will pm you the password.
cheers.

Smoothie 10-03-2002 06:35 AM

Teck-

Thanks! No rush, whenever you have time.

terry123 10-03-2002 08:14 AM

can i have password plz

TECK 10-03-2002 08:20 AM

yes, terry123. first submit here the URL where you plan to install vbHome (lite). thank you.
you should wait an hour also. i'm releasing v3.3 in a bit.

still having problems with a cool dropdown i made, to see the article icon (while selecting it), when you submit your article...

LeeCHeSSS 10-03-2002 08:39 AM

Hmm, you using javascript for that?

Anyway, are you making the icons optional? Because my site doesn't deal in the default phpnuke topics. And I haven't got any cool icons to use for topics that would fit on MY site.

TECK 10-03-2002 08:46 AM

no i dont use java... :)
and yes they are optional.

what type of icons you need? there are several sites out there where you can download sets... i dont know any, since i make my own... but you know what i mean... :)

also, check your page when you are logged out, the login box is to wide.

LeeCHeSSS 10-03-2002 08:51 AM

I know it is too wide. Haven't finished the layout completely (bit lazy today)

My site is about playing RPG's online, so anything that goes with that :)

Could ask my resident artist to create icons though...

TECK 10-03-2002 08:55 AM

well... i have no idea what is RPG... :cry:
willing to explain it to me? thanks.

Smoothie 10-03-2002 09:18 AM

RPG= Roll playing games.

terry123 10-03-2002 09:19 AM

yeah can i use it at http://www.hackerdome.net/board

cheers

Well, there's your explanation :)

The most wellknown RPG is Dungeons&Dragons made by Wizards of the Coast. Check www.wizards.com/dnd for information

D&D is fantasy themed, but there are also RPG's set in the future, or even in the past (Call of Cthulhu - a favourite of mine).

LeeCHeSSS 10-03-2002 10:01 AM

Got a request for you TECK,

If a user does NOT have permissions to edit the poll, the link doesn't show up right. That's cool.
But if a user ALSO doesn't have permissions to post messages in the poll thread, the "Discuss this poll" also doesn't show up. That's cool as well, EXCEPT for the fact that there's still an empty <td></td> cell at the bottom of the Poll block.

Think you can tweak this out? If you don't understand, look at the bottom of the poll block on my site. You'll see a really small empty cell.

Smoothie 10-03-2002 10:06 AM

Yes, my son is big into the RPG scene. :)

LeeCHeSSS 10-03-2002 10:20 AM

I just discovered that using vbHome requires 2 additional template changes:
In "head_newpm" find
Code:

private.php?s=$session[sessionhash]
and replace it with
Code:

$bburl/private.php?s=$session[sessionhash]
There are two instances which BOTH need to be changed.

If you do not perform these 2 template changes, you will be redirected to a 404 page whenever you have an unread PM and click OK on the "You have a new private message. Click OK to view it, or cancel to hide this prompt." dialogbox that pops up.

TECK, I suggest you add this in the readmefirst.txt in the zip.

aha.. well i will fix that.. ty for letting me know.

the $bburl pm's were fixed a while ago. always deleted your temporary internet files before you download a file with the same name... at vb.org.

i finally finished the v3.3. working on the install instructions, making a really nice and clean readmefirst.htm file... :)

LeeCHeSSS 10-03-2002 11:46 AM

Odd, cos I downloaded the latest download on a computer that had never been on vb.org before :)

Oh well, it's fixed now, so we're all happy.

Only got 1 more thing to do (add a couple of useful/navigational links in the $home_welcomeuser template) for my vbHome layout, then it's finished :)

TECK 10-03-2002 12:09 PM

hehe... you think is finished??? :)
nope. the new version fixes another poll bug that it was occuring sometimes... also there are few other minor bugs fixed...

after all i dont think i will make an upgrade file, is to much hassle and the new options will not be in order, the way they suppose to... so back to the same story, uninstall > install.

i hope you guys are not gonna make the same mistake like the last time.. uninstall using the new installer script.
MAKE sure you uninstall with the OLD script, then install a fresh v3.3 copy onto your server.

LeeCHeSSS 10-03-2002 12:23 PM

I meant: My layout will be finished.

vbHome has too much room for more features to ever call it "finished" :)

And if we're going along the uninstall/install route, could you be so kind to somehow indicate what exactly has changed between versions code-wise? (since I don't feel like having to redo the templates all the time)

pseudocode 10-03-2002 12:52 PM

Hi,

I'd like a password for vBulletin Home Lite. My forums are at http://64.224.111.214/forums. Thanks!

TECK 10-03-2002 12:53 PM

i fixed the empty <td> row you told me about it. :)
moving on with the instructions.. you will love how clean and easy is now to read and follow the readmefirst install instructions...

TECK 10-03-2002 12:55 PM

pseudocode, i'm just about to release v.3.3
working on the instructions. as soon as i release it you will have the password as well as 2 other members who request it...

LeeCHeSSS 10-03-2002 01:03 PM

TECK, if you ever need help with writing the English instructions, don't hesitate to ask me. Even though it's not my native language (I'm Dutch), my grasp of the language is at a level where I often correct native english speakers in their flaws.

TECK 10-03-2002 01:08 PM

thank you!
as you noticed, i make grammar mistakes.... i'm romanian, is normal... ;)
however i use a spellchecker for that, just to make sure...
