How can we move the text to a different place? I'd prefer it under the "Private Messages: Unread/Total"

Brilliant mod, i used it on 3.5 and will use it on 3.6 so handy , although i do hate coming back online and seeing something like 4578 unread posts ;P

There is no option to move it.

I know there isn't......which is why I was asking how would I go about moving it to another location? obviously the code has to modified but I have no experience with product modification.

You would have to edit the plugin to disable the auto template update of the navbar, and then manually edit your navbar to put $unread where you want it.

Thx Paul - very useful. :rolleyes:

great hack big thx form me :)

Go into the XML-File and replace

Code:

$search_text = '</strong><br />';

with

Code:

$search_text = '\$vbphrase[last_visited_x_at_y]</phrase>';

Then replace

Code:

$unread = construct_phrase('<a href=\"search.php?do=getnew\">'.$vbphrase['unread_posts'].'</a><br />',$postcount['unread']);

with

Code:

$unread = construct_phrase('<br /><a href=\"search.php?do=getnew\">'.$vbphrase['unread_posts'].'</a><br />',$postcount['unread']);

If I understood the Code correctly it should work fine for you!

Thanks

I agree, that it would be good, and so I did it and tested it for you :laugh:
Step 1: Open Paul's XML-File with Notepad
Step 2:

Search for:

Code:

$vbulletin->templatecache['navbar'] = str_replace($search_text,$search_text.$unread,$vbulletin->templatecache['navbar']);

Below add these four Lines:

Code:

$vbulletin->templatecache['navbar'] = str_replace("\$vbphrase[new_posts_nav]</a>","\$vbphrase[new_posts_nav] (".$postcount['unread'].")</a>",$vbulletin->templatecache['navbar']);

              $vbulletin->templatecache['navbar'] = str_replace("\$vbphrase[new_posts_nav]</a>","\$vbphrase[new_posts_nav] (".$postcount['unread'].")</a>",$vbulletin->templatecache['navbar']);

              $vbulletin->templatecache['navbar'] = str_replace("\$vbphrase[todays_posts]</a>","\$vbphrase[todays_posts] (".$postcount['unread'].")</a>",$vbulletin->templatecache['navbar']);

              $vbulletin->templatecache['navbar'] = str_replace("\$vbphrase[todays_posts]</a>","\$vbphrase[todays_posts] (".$postcount['unread'].")</a>",$vbulletin->templatecache['navbar']);

Step 3: Re-Import the XML (allow overwrite=Yes) - Yep you're done! :cool:
And don't forget to refresh your Browser :p

Customize just the default Searchtext for proper Replacement

Find this in Paul's XML-Product-File:

Code:

$search_text = '</strong><br />';

Replace with:

Code:

$search_text = '\$vbphrase[private_messages_nav]</phrase></if>';

Find this:

Code:

$unread = construct_phrase('<a href=\"search.php?do=getnew\">'.$vbphrase['unread_posts'].'</a><br />',$postcount['unread']);

Replace with (just to ensure to have it in the new Line):

Code:

$unread = construct_phrase('<br /><a href=\"search.php?do=getnew\">'.$vbphrase['unread_posts'].'</a><br />',$postcount['unread']);

It should normally work (untested)!
Save with Notepad - Re-Import Hack, Allow overwrite 'yes', refresh Browser :)
