hm ok well there goes that idea then lol. thanks for testing it. so i have no clue now. that was my only guess as to the problem and it obvisouly isn't causing it. *shrug* i'll keep looking and see if i can find out what it is.

Anyone know how to get this working with VBPortal???

i don't know cause i don't have vB Portal. but some others on here may have done it. my guess is to add it to the header template for vB Portal. you may also have to put the files in another directory, or just reference them in the appropriate ones. not sure though.

Yep, first thing I tried already was adding it too the header template... didn't work. I have installed this on other sites with the other portals with no problems at all.....

Thanks

is it not referencing the css? like the css and other files are not in the right folder. keep them where they are but then copy them over to the folder where the portal is in ... if it is in a different folder than the forums.

/public_html/ - portal
/public_html/forums/ - forums

that's the only thing i can think of.

i have VB Advanced and it looks odd in that but fine in forums

any fix?

I would check your edits.

I have vBa and it doesn't do that.

i think that is the same problem that RichieBoy67 is having. i'm not sure why. maybe conflicting CSS?

anyone have a css fix for ie? maybe cache the images?

i'm pretty sure i edited everything right?

anyone know

css fix? i have no problems at all with this in IE, that is what i created it in. what is the problem you are having?

For vbadvanced just add the files into your root directory.

That is not the problem with vbportal. I think it has to do with the headinclude part....

when i mouse over the hack, the image disappears and then the 2.gif appears, and when i mouse out the same thing happens. that happens to me with ie for any site but i primarily use firefox and it works flawlessly with the higher standard browser.

i use sp1/ie6.0.2800 but that's of no consequence

i've never noticed that before with IE6. nobody else has mentioned it either. it shouldn't take very long to load the images because they are very small in size... 630 bytes. even on dial up something that small really shouldn't make a difference in the time it takes to appear.

i think it does cache the image once it is loaded too. so initally the first image is cached, then the first time you rollover that image is cached.

you know what setting does it? i had it set to check for newer versions of stored pages "every visit to the page". so i changed it to "automatically" and now it works seemlessy.

i added cursor: hand; to the hover part..so now i like it even more

right on, glad you got it working!

Okay, I had to rebuild, so I know it is a hack I have installed.

I'm nowhere near able to figure this out, can I send you things to look at? Maybe put some templates into text files and zip them up for you?

I figured it out.

I have the Microstats Hack installed. The one that gives how long to generate the page and the PHP and SQL percentages.

I moved that code up in the headerinclude template and it took out the space at the top.

anyone using this with vbportal???

I am also seeing that this code is not xhtml 1 compliant.... Has anyone cleaned this code up at all????

I too am looking for support for vbPortal

the <!-- logo --> is not found in the header nor the themeheader templates

thanks in advance

I just installed this hack, but why does the box look like this? (see attached)

because you edited the content in the box to display line breaks. rather than the info being on just 1 line it is on multiple lines. you will have to condense your information, and make sure it is only on 1 line.

This is a great hack to install and will force guests to register. Thanks.

Perfect! <clicks install>

Easy to install and works great! Thank you!

Works like a champ. Thanks! [clicks install] ;)

Nice one. Very helpful.

You dont need to look for <!--logo-->. If you cant find it, just put it under <a name="top"></a>

Just 1 q... Will this have any effect on spidering the site?

Dont want to piss them off - they are touchy things.

Question. With this hack, it will force the guests to register which will get me more members or what?

should goof with spiders at all. they may just see the extra link to register. no big deal.
no, it won't force them to register. just a subtle reminder that they should register.

was going through your site. noticed the bar shows up funny on this page.

I believe that happens because the files haven't been loaded into that particular folder/directory.

Does this works with VbAdvanced?Any other changes need to be made?Thanks.

Thanks for the heads up!

some people have it installed with a portal system. not sure which one(s) though.

No changes needed to work with 3.0.8

erm if you look here http://www.myfootballforum.com/referrals.php

You will see the Total Referrals Since: August 03, 2005 and the total board referrals are both 96 even though i've just reset it, the
Total Referrals Since: August 03, 2005 should be 0. They both use $total to get this number. Any help please?

I don't know. It could be because of another mod. This doesn't change any data at all, it just provides the link so people can sign up, and it can have the referral code in it if you decide.

Any chance we'll get this ported over to 3.5? :)

Ya, soon as it is gold.
