I've installed it at www.nothingland.com and while it seems to be working most of the time, I have a small handful of users with a blank "Style:" even though other people with the exact same settings show "Style: (not specified)". The styles are all numbered properly in my Admin CP so that can't be it. Any suggestions? And please be polite, as I am a delicate and beautiful snowflake. ;)

EDIT: Hang on, I think I get it. It's that drop-down menu problem, isn't it?

mmm I already did that...it doesn't work *shrug*

Thanks ! Nice job :)

Is there an solution, for the hack auto detect the style ? Example, here, on vbulletin.org, in my postbit there is marked "Style: Smooth Blue" but, I use the Dark blue skin :\ !
The only way to change this, is to modify my option in the usercp, but the style, maydetect automatically, it will be very nice :) !

Thanks !

Nice job with the hack, but I would like to know how one would go about to make the information available to insert into the MEMBERINFO template, as I'd find it more logical to place this sort of information into someone's more detailed information instead of in the postbit, where minimal user info is shown.

Make sure that you have the style ID numbers correct, not the order of the styles. Style X might be number 1 on your board, but it's ID could be number 20.

I never wouldn've used it.. but I found use for it on my new forum :) good job

Ok - after upgrading to 3.03, when users use the default style, all they see is ( ) on http://www.kirupaforum.com

Do others have that issue with having a default style selected in vBulletin 3.03?

Great hack!

Thanks alot :)

Easy Hack, Thanks

*click install

where we have to add that phrase.

in admincp under languages and phrases. Go to phrase manager and you will see a button for add new phrase.

Does this hack have problems with vB 3.0.3? I just upgraded and the upgrade destroyed this hack. I get the Skin: but not a single person on the forums is actually displaying the skin. At first I thought it was just unspecified users having this problem, but apparently now everyone's skin listing is blank. My styles all have unique display orders. The hack was working beautifully until I upgraded. Just in case, I went back step-by-step and re-added the hack and it's still not working. :ermm:

I loved this thing!

i made all changes and i was about to add the phrase but there is a new problem i cant log in to AdminCP.now please help.

Cool Hack.

Seems to half work with me.

It shows most of the styles, but some times it only displays "Style: ()"

Example: http://81.169.188.232/web/united-for...d.php?p=600086

Only a few Styles (not the default style) are shown correct.

What did I do wrong? thx for your help.
edit: never mind, thanks.

Nice Hack....

But can the style show without an link to the style of the user?

Now:
Style: vB3 Grey

I want only:
Style: vB3 Grey

How can i do this?

Thanks M?uschen.

As you can see by the attatched images, something is wrong.

When I went into AdminCP / Languages & Phrases /
1: Add New Phrase
2: Phrase Type : GLOBAL
3: Varname : style
4: Text: Style

So, what did I do wrong?

Easy to set up and very useful. *clicks install*

I would be interested in what the others are:

1) A way to see the number of users using style 1 and style 2, 3, 4 and so on.

2) A way for the Quick Style Chooser to report to the UserCP.

Thank you as always.

Hi, is there this hack for vBulletin 2.3.4???

I'm looking for it, but i don't seem to find it

Thanx

Hmm, looks like VB.org works fine, maybe they will say how they did there. since it works

I only get Style:
I have 3.0.3
Anyone can help?

could some one just explain the phrases thing a little more for me please...i have found the section but i am lost.

Varname --- what do i put in the box next to this.

Is it only supposed to have the style you've chosen through the user cp? If you change your style using the drop down menu at the bottom of the page then it doesn't accurately show which style you're using. Is it supposed to do that?

Yes, as the ones you choose in the drop down are really just temporary. It's basically a way to see what styles are being used. If you choose different ones a lot, it doesn't report that. Maybe it will one day.

you put the word style in the varname and the word Style in the text.

thanks i have got this now.

just one problem....it works kinda....im using one style but its still showing im using the default style...but for other users using the same style i am it shows up?

any idea why this is?

are you sure that in your user cp, you have that paricular skin chosen?

Because you probably changed via the "Quick Style Chooser" for it to show up in your posts you have to go to User CP -> Edit Options and change it there.

Well that stinks that is does not work and save when using the Quick Style Chooser. If I use the Quick Style Chooser and change my style and log off and when I log back in it picks up the style I changed to using the Quick Style Chooser from my last seasion. So I can not understand why it does this but does not change in my USERCP? Most users do not go through their ADMINCP to change or set there Style.

well that worked thanks...i just dont understand why it wouldnt change on the user cp as well

I noticed a 'bug' if I may call it that.

If you set your preferred style in your profile, it reflect that style. But if you use the style chooser to select a different one, it doesn't reflect that selection. Is there a way to fix this?

Thanks for the reply. I like a lot of the suggestions that have been made in the thread. Maybe they'll be implemented someday. :)

I installed this hack and it worked good. I only have one style and I changed something in my usercp -> options (where the style chooser would be) and no it just shows up not specified. The only way to have it show up again is to create a new style for the time being so I have a different style to choose then go to my usercp and select the style and then it shows up again. Cause if you only have one style the style chooser don't show up.

Great Hack! Big THX!

Need help..

I am finding a hard time locating this : includes/functions_showthread.php , to start with adding the codes.

can anyone tell me in detail where it is?

thanks in advance

never mind.. i figured it out. :p

Ok I did everything as said but its not showing up for me. Could it be because my forums are in linear mode? Its a brand new board so I'm still working on getting everything added. And this is my first hack that I've installed so it could be something I've done wrong.

Example of the only things that are showing up are attached. Any help is appreciated. thanks.

So is there a way to force a user to sue a selected style so you don't see the Style: ?

Maybe old, but definatly a good one... :d
