- - Nicer Greeting On NavBar (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=100993)

What time was it when you saw the greeting?

This * might * fix it:
Find:

PHP Code:


		
			
$ng_tz_serveroffset = $vbulletin->options['timeoffset'];
$ng_tz_useroffset = $vbulletin->userinfo['timezoneoffset'];

$ng_hour = date('G');
$ng_now = bcadd($ng_hour, $ng_tz_serveroffset);
$ng_result = bcadd($ng_now, $ng_tz_useroffset);

Replace with:

PHP Code:


		
			
$ng_date = date("G");
$ng_tz_useroffset = $vbulletin->userinfo['timezoneoffset'];
$ng_result = bcadd($ng_date, $ng_tz_useroffset);

This is what I have from working on it:

PHP Code:


		
			
$ng_date = date("G");
$ng_tz_useroffset = $vbulletin->userinfo['timezoneoffset'];
$ng_result = bcadd($ng_date, $ng_tz_useroffset);

$ng_greeting = "ERROR";

if($ng_result < 12){
    $ng_greeting = "<strong>" . $vbphrase[ng_goodmorning] . " " . $vbulletin->userinfo[username] . ".</strong>";
} elseif($ng_result < 18){
    $ng_greeting = "<strong>" . $vbphrase[ng_goodafternoon] . " " . $vbulletin->userinfo[username] . ".</strong>";
}else {
    $ng_greeting = "<strong>" . $vbphrase[ng_goodevening] . " " . $vbulletin->userinfo[username] . ".</strong>";
}

Here's my latest edits (in case someone else wants to try it):

I've somewhat modified the instructions:

first off go to your navbar template and find:
==============================================
<div style="padding: 0.5em;" nowrap="nowrap">
<strong><phrase 1="$bbuserinfo[username]">$vbphrase[welcome_x]</phrase></strong><br />
==============================================

and replace that with
<div style="padding: 0.5em;" nowrap="nowrap">
<strong>$ng_greeting</strong><br />

PHP Code:


		
			
    <plugins>
        <plugin active="1">
            <title>Nicer Greeting On NavBar</title>
            <hookname>global_start</hookname>
            <phpcode><![CDATA[// Nicer Greeting On NavBar

$ng_date = date("G");
$ng_tz_useroffset = $vbulletin->userinfo['timezoneoffset'];
$ng_result = bcadd($ng_date, $ng_tz_useroffset);

$ng_greeting = "ERROR";

if($ng_result < 12){
    $ng_greeting = "<phrase 1="$bbuserinfo[username]">" . $vbphrase[ng_goodmorning] . " . </phrase>";
} elseif($ng_result < 18){
    $ng_greeting = "<phrase 1="$bbuserinfo[username]">" . $vbphrase[ng_goodafternoon] . " . </phrase>";
}else {
    $ng_greeting = "<phrase 1="$bbuserinfo[username]">" . $vbphrase[ng_goodevening] . " . </phrase>";
}
// Nicer Greeting On NavBar
]]></phpcode>
        </plugin>
    </plugins>
    <phrases>
        <phrasetype name="GLOBAL" fieldname="global">
            <phrase name="ng_goodafternoon"><![CDATA[Good Afternoon, {1}]]></phrase>
            <phrase name="ng_goodevening"><![CDATA[Good Evening, {1}]]></phrase>
            <phrase name="ng_goodmorning"><![CDATA[Good Morning, {1}]]></phrase>
        </phrasetype>
    </phrases>

Edit: forgot semicolon after "ERROR"

nice work, christianb, i'll look that over as soon as i get a chance.

as for people with the bcadd() problem. ask your host to enable bcmath in your configuration.

you can check if it's enabled or not via your phpinfo.

still getting the error after Techs has installed php-bcmath-5.0.4-1mdk.i586.rpm on your server.

just a thought on the bcadd issue...

replacing this:

PHP Code:


		
			
$ng_result = bcadd($ng_date, $ng_tz_useroffset);

with this:

PHP Code:


		
			
$ng_result = $ng_date + $ng_tz_useroffset;

(old php stuff might work here, may not work - I haven't tried it)

Edit (forgot to remove ")")

Update: The welcome changed today fro 'Good Morning' to 'Good Afternoon' only it was still morning do I changed 12 to 18 and 18 to 12 and I got the 'Good Morning' message. Will wait til later today or tomorrow to see if it changes correctly.

Only curiuos...

Where is the server in location to your website? If it is in a different time zone, this will have to be taken into consideration.
