Thanks very much, really appreciate it :)

**Installed**

***UPDATE***

Is there a way to remove it from all the other pages but just leave it on the main page?
I looked through the posts here but if it was asked, then I missed it.. sorry.

Computer_Angel 07-24-2007 04:41 AM

I hate modified the templates when change the skin, so i add new plugin for it:
add plugin: forumhome_complete

Quote:

if ($vbulletin->options['wlhon']) {
$match="\"\.\(\(.show\['guest'\]\).*";
$m=preg_match("/$match/i", $vbulletin->templatecache['FORUMHOME'],$matches, PREG_OFFSET_CAPTURE);
if ($m) {
$insert = $matches[0][1];
$beginning = substr($vbulletin->templatecache['FORUMHOME'], 0, $insert);
$remain=substr($vbulletin->templatecache['FORUMHOME'], $insert);

$match="<!-- main -->";
$m=preg_match("/$match/i", $remain,$matches, PREG_OFFSET_CAPTURE);
if ($m) {
$insert = $matches[0][1];
$ending=substr($remain, $insert);
$vbulletin->templatecache['FORUMHOME']=$beginning.$ending;
}
}
$header.=$welcomeheaders;
}

Yes.

Just a little thing you might want to edit in the file. The phrase $vbphrase[welcome_guest] has at the end twice "contact" in it:
Code:

please contact <a href="{4}">contact us</a>.
Also it might be a good idea to add rel="nofollow" to the links in that same phrase, to stop unnecessary indexing there.

Ted S 07-26-2007 02:20 PM

Thanks for catching the typo. I'll get that corrected.

underworldmagic 07-31-2007 10:16 AM

hi,

will this mod work on the latest VB version 3.6.8 ?

Thanks

Ted S 07-31-2007 02:22 PM

3.6.8 is a minor release so there should be no issues.

I don't use product version checking in my addons. People running the addon should mark it as installed to be informed of any important updates.

Hello,

Can you please help me out with the welcome header problem. Place where I installed the MOD is http://www.tsoh.info/

The mod was installed according the installation says but i guess due to the skin I am using the texts has been cut from the upper side. So, can you please figure this out for me. I am using the skin FreshBlue.

Regards,

Ted S 08-05-2007 05:31 AM

It looks like you have a spacer opening around your main content, move the welcome header template such that it falls inside that div.

Ballonggreven 08-06-2007 07:56 PM

I have installed the plug-in and finding it in the plug-in manager. There I've being asked for installation codes. Do I need codes?
Where do I go to get started with it and editing the welcome message?

The 3 required steps to install this hack are explained in the install.html file as well as details on modifying the messages. If you have any questions about the steps please let me know.

Ballonggreven 08-07-2007 05:40 AM

I've sorted it out. Thanks!

Hostboard 08-08-2007 03:09 AM

I have looked high and low but have not been able to find if this was ever released for VB 3.0.x? Kind of stuck at the moment not being able to upgrade for a variety of reasons. Sorry for having to ask here but other inquiries have gone un-noticed.

TIA

Ted S 08-08-2007 02:16 PM

It was but is no longer available that version. With some minor work the current version could be made to work in 3.0.

Hostboard 08-08-2007 02:38 PM

Any chance of you being able to do that, or should I try to find someone who can do a backwards port?

Tahnx for the reply :)

Ted S 08-08-2007 02:50 PM

I do not provide support for products in the 3.0 series.

teenhut 08-10-2007 07:09 AM

When i see page source, I am seeing the google ad weight ignore thing in it just after welcome headers tags......why google adsense conflict with welcome headers? Something wrong?

Ted S 08-10-2007 02:32 PM

That code is put in place so AdSense knows to ignore the welcome headers. There's no sense in having ads show up based on your welcome message... you want them to be based on the content the page is actually about. Removing the tags is not a problem.

hobsdv 08-12-2007 02:19 PM

installed works a treat thanks

vwdforum 08-12-2007 07:18 PM

added to www.boozebritain.co.uk and www.vwdforum.com

thanks

redraider 08-14-2007 01:25 PM

Hi ted,

Are there any updates required for VB36.8? This is a great hack!

None that are known.

applyimage 08-15-2007 02:11 PM

I'd like a small space underneath the box where the message appears, what code would be added? so the message box isn't touching, in my case the 'top 5 stats' box, thanks.

basketmen 08-16-2007 07:28 PM

I installed this mod and also installed Limited Guest Viewing -- Improve community registration rates too


and i cant get welcome headers just in showthread page because these two mod is conflict said ted




so i open showthread template


i find this

Quote:

$navbar

and add the entire welcome_headers template below it






and abra cadabra welcome headers now appears in showthread page too



only this sollution for someone installed welcome headers and Limited Guest Viewing -- Improve community registration rates or this had been fixed ?

Ted S 08-16-2007 07:54 PM

Please do not quote the hack code in it's entirety.

That's not how the hack is designed to work nor is it an acceptable installation. You should be using the variable $welcomeheaders to allow for updates to the addon.

If you are trying to use both hacks at the same time that can be configured through your vBulletin options page. They are both completely compatible with each other and have been since the release of LGV (see the main post for an explanation of how they work together).

basketmen 08-17-2007 12:03 PM

oh ok i had remove code in quote


so this is what i miss i am sorry, where is the suppression option i dont find it?

i think i had using latest mod 30 jan 2007 like this screenshot https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachmen...7&d=1151192636

Quote:

Limited Guest Viewing compatibility
The Welcome Headers System is designed to work with the Limited Guest Viewing without any conflict. To insure that welcome header messages do not show up at the same time as the limited guest viewing message, please be sure you are running welcome headers version 4.1.3 or greater and have enabled the suppression option.

Ted S 08-17-2007 03:18 PM

Jan 30th is not the latest version. Upgrade. The options for how the hacks work together can be found in the Welcome Header System options.

Please? :(

Ted S 08-20-2007 06:47 PM

Edit the template welcome_headers to add whatever spacing you like.

syschat 08-26-2007 09:27 PM

Love this mod! However, is there a way to make it display just over the forums, instead of the whole page. I am using the EasyAction template on http://www.mmopoint.com Thanks!

Ted S 08-27-2007 06:42 PM

What exactly do you mean syschat?

syschat 08-27-2007 10:41 PM

Basically, I want the welcome header to only be over the forums and not the sidebar on the homepage. I drew out what I need, since its hard to explain:
http://blurv.com/pics/a0a169c424abc6...343dfe49d9.bmp

Thanks!!

Ted S 08-27-2007 11:26 PM

How you do that is going to depend on how you've added your sidebar. Presumably your sidebar is envoked in the navbar template, in which case, you'd move the $welcomeheaders variable into the main table cell. If it's elsewhere, you may need to make other changes.

syschat 08-28-2007 12:06 AM

The sidebar code is in the forumhome template file, what is the code to put in the welcomebars addon?
