A Question / Bug :

When a user see the panel, and lets say the forum has some Private Forums, it displays there also for the simple users, that for example there has been 5 news posts. But if he clicks there and the posts have been done in the private forums, he doesnt see anything..

So my main question or request is if we can exclude Private Forums from this counter there or even "show" them only to ppl that have access to these forums and the others see another number

Hope u understand what i mean :)


Also

Is there anyway, we can make some special icons to be shown instead of the text links that are on the panel, i mean the "view new posts", "view posts in the last 24 hours" and "edit your profile" ?
Please if so, provide me a code so i can know what to do :)

installed!

nice hack, but it causes a lot of serverload and a slower loadtime on forumhome...
we have about 200.000 posts and i think, that the new posts search is causing that...

yup, I disabled the plugin and watched my server load drop in half in about 2 minutes.

is there a way to decrease all font sizes in the welcome panel?

also, 'Your most active in' should be 'You're most active in'.

The You're Most Active in is very easy to fix, though I guess ZT should re-edit that small grammatical error :P. Not a big deal anyways.

Thanks for this nice welcome board, great work!! though I cannot figure out why all the welcome panels in the previous posts look awesome and why the later ones posted (including mine) look very less like the one posted by ZT :(.

I installed it and love it, on my new 3.5 board upgrade, but I have a question I am shocked nobody has asked.

Where it says : 1 Unread Private Messages, shouldn't that be a link to the Inbox? I wish I knew how to do it. I think that is a very important change. I took out the "pm" part out of the "breadcrumbs" on top, so not to be repetitive, but now my users have to manually go into profile and change it. Can someone please help?

confirmed 3.5.2 working yes ?

Yes my board is vB 3.5.2 and its working PERFECTLY!! You just may have to tweak it a little if it comes up different then the ones posted here but it's all great! No errors whatsoever (unless u install it wrong) :p

Doesn't look quite so amazing when you've got huge avatar...I blame myself. Good mod!

*Install*

^^ Works fine for me >: D lol

Hi

Installed...looked a right mess, uninstalled...
was worth a try lol

Bashy

Installed and works great, for English language that is....

In Dutch we separate thousands with a dot instead of a comma, ie 1.000 instead of 1,000.
That was no problem, I changed the str_replace from comma to dot.
But we also have some users that browse in the English language. For them the postpercentage and posts per day don't give the right results now.

Is there anyway to replace the str_replace to an other php command that replaces the . AND the , with a space? I can't get it to work, but i'm a total php n00b...

Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

got it thanks :)

I have one question:

Everything works fine, however I need to alter the font size so that it looks in place with the other text on the forum. Currently it looks completely out of place. Here is what my panel looks like:

The text should show up like in the navbar. Can you please help? This is a fantastic hack, and with the correct font size display it will be even better.

Several people have asked the same question. Please help.

Thanks!

server load is terrible with this, even with this rewrite
ttp://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=100672

yup, that is why I uninstalled it.

I just removed "You are most active in" part (html and php code) and server load went back to normal.

OK, found a solution

Find this code
and replace it by this:
That code is found three times.
That seemes to do the trick, I don't know if it's a very elegant solution, since I'm a php n00b, but it works :)

Make sure you're installing this as a plugin, not as a product.

Plugin System -> Upload/Download plugins -> Import Plugin Definitions XML File

(at the very bottom)

wonderful!! i got it. it looks kinda big tho. lol


thanks:)

woo hoo i did another version, smaller, and great. lol

Just got one problem, when I checking posts for last 24 hours for some reason it only shows 100 posts, but there should be a lot more.

Any help??? Please

good job ZT:)
im using this mod and ur vBShout on myboard
this block apears below vBShout in forumhome
is it possible to change its position to set before vBShout?

Weird. Mine shows above vbShout.

Where is your vbShout set to display?

My "vbShout Position" is set to 'Below Navigation Bar'.

mine shows after vBShout! ( and Forumhome: Photopost vBA Gallery Block )
My "vbShout Position" is set to 'Below Navigation Bar', SAME HERE

Any one?

this lookz good

Very nice hack but I have a problem with it:
Those stats don't match up with my stats under user profile:

Thanks for the hack.

Had to change the spelling of 'Your most active' in to You're but other than that, great thanks x] Also I changed the interface a little.

Good job as always. Cheers

*installs

Installed :up:

Installed fine but the font does not match the main forums and a s a result it looks awful.

Does anyone have an idea on how to fix this?

Ive installed this a while ago, all is working fine. But im trying to find away to have the Total Members, Total Thread and Total Posts info on my homepage.

Basically, I building my homepage and what the above hack, or at least part of it on there. But set out in a list form. Like this,
Members:
Threads:
Posts:

Hope that makes sense!

Hello
Is there a way to show the welcome panel on all pages?

Zero great hack thanks man

how would i make this showup on any page other then the forumhome?

i don't mind manually editing it, even if its alot to do, as long as you tell me how to.

like should i just place something infront of all the variables such as:
{$exec_lastposts}

if so just tell me what to.

matter of fact right now it only works with all the info on the index.php page (forumhome) on other pages it shows up but like the memberslist it doesnt have any working numbers.

also on vbadvanced pages it doesn't show up neither.
index is at:
site.com
and the forum is at:
board.site.com

ok for some reason this hack is no longer working for some of my users. It was working perfectly and now its not.

they keep getting this:
Your total forum posts: 1,016 (0.00% of forums total posts)
You're most active in: Signature Showcase · 434 Posts
Average posts per day: 0.00

or something similiar. any ideas?

does that work with 3.6?
