I will be adding a small mod for my next version to say 'Signature Stats' in the online users bit.
I have done this - you just add "lwp-request" and "Signature Stats Updater" to the Spider List under "Who's Online" vBulletin Options in your AdminCP

I would say you can do it in vB, but I tried that and it doesnt seem to work. I think there are some cron scripts that you can use, you need to ask somebody who knows a tad more about crontabs.

when the graphic looks like this:

I'd sure still like to find out how to resolve this problem!

The reason the bad graphic in the above post now looks good is that I found the answer on the F5hosting forum.

For those others of you who have been waiting days for the detailed answer on how to make the washed out graphics work -- the answe is (drum roll)

The image you are using has more than 256 colours so the method in the hack will never work. The function they should have used to create the initial image is imagecreatetruecolor and not imagecreate, so if you replace the line

Code:
$img = imagecreate($width,$height);
with

Code:
$img = imagecreatetruecolor($width,$height);
it should work.

make sure the signature.jpg is CMOD to read and write by all, and you can just run the signature.php in your board's CRON once an hour -- and then just use the jpg instead of the php inside ing code.

I will ake this optionalin te net version I am considering making a small admin control panel for signature stats, but I will think about it.

aha, works for me

DWard 06-28-2004 08:36 PM
Yer for some it works fine first time, for others it doesn't. It's not as if the instructions are hard at the least.

It is definately related to the GD version users are working with.

RapCheck 06-28-2004 09:11 PM
I'm finding that using the vb cron, the post count stats dont update and go blank, but if I click on run manually, it updates fine

I'm having the same problem. What's up with that.

On the GD version -- the first thing I looked into was the version of GD on my server. It was the most recent (as I posted many posts ignored ago). It took me almost five days of being ignored here before I posted the problem at another forum, and to have someone else look at it and give me the proper replacement code for it to work.

I like the hack and don't want to sound ungrateful -- but I made many posts in this thread giving the exact details of the problem and what I did, and they were all ignored. I make one post at F5Hosting -- baddabing-baddaboom, the answer.

I'm hoping we can get the answer to the missing thread and post counts when the signature.php is run as an automatic CRON -- but reappear when you manually run the CRON. However, I'll ask over there if no one here answers.

I'm not sure to be honest why vB crons dont work. I have plesk control panel for my domain and its ace when running crons. Have no trouble what so ever.

Big Kahuna 06-29-2004 04:05 PM
Good idea -- I'll try to run the CRONs from my site's CP

Update -- I run the below CRON in my Cpanel and it works flawlessly. Don't know why it won't with vbulletin's CRON

Code:
/usr/bin/php /home/moparsty/public_html/forums/signature.php >/dev/null 2>&1

OK, that is because the imagettftext() function is either disabled or not supported on your server. You need to consult them about it, otherwise just use the standard text option.

NyCwill 07-02-2004 12:22 PM
how do I use the standard text option.

NyCwill 07-02-2004 12:32 PM
nvm I got it hehe :)

About Cron...
Can someone please explain what this means:
Code:
>/dev/null 2>&1
Thanks in advance,
cLord ;)

DWard 07-04-2004 03:11 PM
Dont quite know what it actually means, but I use it to turn off the email notification I used to get after each cron was carried out.

Natch 07-04-2004 03:13 PM
the first part causes the text output - aka errors and so on - to be redirected to /dev/null - a blackhole where data goes to die ...

Yikes!

This is what I have in my signature.php
PHP Code:

$ausgabedatei = "root/httpdocs/forums/images/signature.jpg";

sorry to be a pain

Natch 07-22-2004 02:24 AM
Can you paste out line 230-260 of your signature.php?

royals 07-22-2004 02:26 AM
here is 223-245. I think I know what it is (line1&2) just not sure what I need to change. but I'm probably wrong!

PHP Code:
// ######################### DO NOT EDIT BELOW ############################

imagecopy ($img, $vorlage, 0, 0, 0, 0, $width, $height); // copy empty banner

imagecolortransparent($img, $bg_color);  // set dummybg transparent

// the distance is in pixels and the font # is 1 through 5
$i = 0;
while($i < count($output)){

// ######################### CHANGE FONT BELOW ############################
// Uncomment LINE1+LINE12 and comment LINE2+LINE22 to use default font.
// Replace "verdana.ttf" with the URL to your .ttf font
//
//imagestring($img, $fontsize, $left, (($i * $zeilenabstand) - $zeilenabstand + $top), $output, $text_color);  // LINE1
imagettftext($img, $fontsize,  $left, (($i * $zeilenabstand) - $zeilenabstand + $top), $text_color,  $output); // LINE2
$i++;
}

header("Content-Type: image/png");
imagepng($img);
imagejpeg($img, "$ausgabedatei",$komprimierung); //Write jpg to folder and set compression
imagedestroy($img); // get the image out of memory 

Natch 07-22-2004 02:35 AM
Code:
imagettftext($img, $fontsize,  $left, (($i * $zeilenabstand) - $zeilenabstand + $top), $text_color,  $output); // LINE2
This line here is missing the vital bit of code ...
Code:
imagettftext($img, $fontsize,  $left, (($i * $zeilenabstand) - $zeilenabstand + $top), $text_color, "verdana.ttf", $output); // LINE2
You need to pick a TTF font file, upload it to the same folder as your signature.php file and specify the filename of that font here ... see?

royals 07-22-2004 02:48 AM
Ok.... I've uploaded verdana.ttf and the changes to php.

PHP Code:
Warning: Wrong parameter count for imagettftext() in /home/httpd/vhosts/therabblerousers.com/httpdocs/forums/signature.php on line 238

:( :(

Natch 07-22-2004 02:54 AM
Your file has gotten quite screwed, but that line should read
Code:
imagettftext($img, $fontsize, 0, $left, (($i * $zeilenabstand) - $zeilenabstand + $top), $text_color, "verdana.ttf", $output[$i]); // LINE2
- you were also missing the parameter 0 between fontsize and left...

The last error is due to you having not yet CHMOD'ed your output directory to where you will save the image...

royals 07-22-2004 03:04 AM
Ok - that error is gone but I get this:

http://www.therabblerousers.com/forums/signature.php

links for images:

http://www.therabblerousers.com/foru.../signature.jpg
http://www.therabblerousers.com/forums/sig/sig.jpg

I dont know if I did the images correct



Editd - had wrong links

royals 07-22-2004 03:46 AM
ok - I figured out my original sig.jpg was wrong...... I think I'm getting it. thank you so much for your time helping me ;)

It's almost there - just not exactly sure now.

http://www.therabblerousers.com/forums/signature.php

Natch 07-22-2004 04:10 AM
There is no way that this code should require login access - you have made too many changes I think ...

Work from the default file and see how you go ...

royals 07-22-2004 01:27 PM
Ok, I will do that this weekend. It is a closed board so I think thats the problem. Thanks for your help.

DWard 07-22-2004 03:09 PM
Hey guys, WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO THE DESIGN?? I visited the site hoping to see the usual nice design, but I see this little innocent design!
