- - Locked Flash Avatar + Modified User Menu (Legacy) 1.3 (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=107364)

I'm glad you like it. Thanks for helping me test it to 1.2. :)

Why is this conditional here first:

<if condition="$post['field16']">

??

Careless on my part. I use 16 for the live board and 20 for the testing board...It should read "field20" for both parts of the instruction. I've updated the codes.

Thanks for the heads-up, ChurchMedia. :)

Nice one, one question, cant this be done for the users who use postbit insteed of postbit_legacy ?

Definitely. Just glancing over the "posbit" code it's all similar except for the avatar section. I'll try it now and post back soon...

While I didn't change the location of the avatar, username and user info (e.g., Join Date, Posts, Title...) the modification works. Here's the instructions:

In postbit template:
1. Look for this (or something similar to):

Code:

                        <if condition="$show['avatar']"><td class="alt2"><a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]"><img src="$post[avatarurl]" $post[avwidth] $post[avheight] alt="<phrase 1="$post[username]">$vbphrase[xs_avatar]</phrase>" border="0" /></a></td></if>

                        <td nowrap="nowrap">

and replace it with:

Code:

<!-- _______ CUSTOM AVATAR (FLASH) _______ -->

                        <if condition="$post['field20']">

<!-- Flash Avatar -->

<if condition="$post['field20"><td class="alt2"><a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]">

<object width="128px" height="128px">

<param name="movie" value="$post[field20]">

<embed src="$post[field20]" width="128px" height="128px" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash">

</embed>

</object></a>

</td></if>

<!-- End -->

                        <else />

<!-- vB Avatar -->

                        <if condition="$show['avatar']"><td class="alt2"><a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]"><img src="$post[avatarurl]" $post[avwidth] $post[avheight] alt="<phrase 1="$post[username]">$vbphrase[xs_avatar]</phrase>" border="0" /></a></td></if>

<!-- End -->

                        </if>

<!-- _______ END _______ -->

                        <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="top">

2. Click "Save" and you're done.

*All of the other instructions remain the same. It's just with "postbit" template and not "legacy".

**While I'm not crazed with the other look (e.g., Username and user's info at the right of the avatar) that can be modified easily by replacing the <td> tags. If you need help with it let me know. :)

great thanks Freesteyelz !!!

i've been searched for this hack long time ago!

it works great!
also i did some modification to be use tnansparent flashes:

Code:

<!-- _______ CUSTOM AVATAR (FLASH) _______ -->

<if condition="$post['field20']">

<!-- Flash Avatar -->

<if condition="$post['field20']">

<div>

<br />

<object width="128px" height="128px">

<param name="movie" value="$post[field20]"> 

<param name="quality" value="high">

<param name="wmode" value="transparent">

<embed src="$post[field20]" width="128px" height="128px" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" menu="false" quality="high" wmode="transparent" scale="default">

</embed>

</object>

</div></if>

<!-- End -->

<else />

<!-- vB Avatar -->

<if condition="$show['avatar']">

<div class="smallfont">

<br /><img src="$post[avatarurl]" width="128px" height="128px" alt="<phrase 1="$post[username]">$vbphrase[xs_avatar]</phrase>" border="0" />

</div>

</if>

<!-- End -->

</if>

<!-- _______ END _______ -->

also why i should use this step?

Code:

Installation Instructions (2 steps):

In Admin CP:



1. Then go to Styles & Templates --> Style Manager --> All Style Options --> Edit Templates --> Postbit Templates --> postbit_legacy

it works perfect without this! And i dont want to view horizontal popup menu

BR,
Ross

For people who use the Legacy view the Flash displays in the foreground, overshadowing the User popup menu. In order for the menu to be seen I positioned it horizontally so that it avoids the Flash avatar entirely. The image attachment shows an example of what (Step 2) does. Anyone who uses a non-Flash avatar will have the popup menu positioned vertically. :)

Anyway, I'm happy that you like it and thanks for clicking install. :)

yes indeed flash will be ot top layer...
but if you do like in my way -> wmode="transparent" all will be "normal" ;)
check it ;)

thank ones again for great hack :)

BR,
Ross
