- - Signature forced to bottom (postbit_legacy) (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=128951)

The original code worked spot on on 3.6.8

... However I have not worked out how to apply this to the postbit template

PHP Code:

I have found a fix.

You need to find this:

PHP Code:


		
			
<tr valign="top">

    <td class="alt2" width="175">

            

            <div id="postmenu_$post[postid]">

then change it to this:

PHP Code:


		
			
<tr valign="top">

    <td class="alt2" width="175" rowspan="2">

            

            <div id="postmenu_$post[postid]">

Then delete this:

PHP Code:


		
			
$template_hook[postbit_signature_start]

       

        <if condition="$post['signature']">

        <!-- sig -->

            <div>

                __________________<br />

                $post[signature]

            </div>

        <!-- / sig -->

        </if>

       

        $template_hook[postbit_signature_end]

find this:

PHP Code:


		
			
<!-- / edit note -->

        </if>

    

    </td>

</tr>

and after add this:

PHP Code:


		
			
<tr>

    <td class="alt1" valign="bottom" style="border-right: $stylevar[cellspacing]px solid $stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]">

        $template_hook[postbit_signature_start]

            <if condition="$post['signature']">

        <!-- sig -->

                <hr size="1" style="color:$stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]" />

                <div valign="bottom">

                <center>$post[signature]</center>

                </div>

        <!-- / sig -->

            </if>

        $template_hook[postbit_signature_end]

    </td>

</tr>

I added a center tag around my $post[sig] code just to make it look better on my site. feel free to remove it if you want.
This is working on 3.6.7
To see it working on my site here is a link to a post

This almost solved it for me - only there's a sort of ugly white long above the black line now.

I've had a problem with this hack dividing the message side of my postbit_legacy. See my screenshot. It's the same problem that EvilKitty seems to be having.

There are 2 or 3 fixes on this thread in addition to the original post. Do any of them actually work now?

I'm by no means good at this, so just a suggestion here.
Would that line maybe be a function of the css?

ok, so I investigated my own advice and think I came up with a fix.

This is what I did to get rid of the line.

AdminCP>Styles & Templates>Style Manager>Main CSS>

Now scroll down to "First Alternating Color". You'll see something like this:

Code:

border-left: 1px solid #212121;

border-right: 1px solid #212121;

border-top: 5px solid #212121;

border-bottom: 5px solid #212121;

Change the 5's to 0's and save. I'm not sure if you have to do it in the "Second Alternating Color", but I did and it didn't seem to hurt.

Thanks.....SecTa , works great!

I ran into the same thing awhile back with this mod - yes it is the borders defined in alt1/2 tags.

Instead of losing your alt borders throughout your forums just for this mod (unless it's of no consequence), create two 'Additional CSS Definitions' that are duplicates of your alt's minus the borders, which more than likely only leaves the background color. Then, in your postbit_legacy template replace all instances of alt1 and alt2 with the newly created definitions.

Code:

.alt1a {background-color: #F5F5FF;}

.alt2a {background-color: #E1E4F2;}

Or something along those lines..

Thank you for this! It works well on my forum. Exactly what I wanted :D

For some reason, the original code started making all the posts double up, but this code below seems to work fine. Thank you :D

is not that good, cause it's used for "Last edited" separation, so, it's better to leave the original one. Also, when applying this hack, "last edited' info is shown ABOVE the signature, which is not good. And there's signature hooks appear to be misplaced.
Here's my alternative to this hack, with needed fixes:

In postbit_legacy, find:

HTML Code:

        <td class="alt2" width="175" style="border: $stylevar[cellspacing]px solid $stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]; border-top: 0px; border-bottom: 0px">

Change to:

HTML Code:

        <td class="alt2" width="175" rowspan="2" style="border: $stylevar[cellspacing]px solid $stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]; border-top: 0px; border-bottom: 0px">

Then find:

HTML Code:

                $template_hook[postbit_signature_start]

                

                <if condition="$post['signature']">

                <!-- sig -->

                        <div>

                                __________________<br />

                                $post[signature]

                        </div>

                <!-- / sig -->

                </if>

                

                $template_hook[postbit_signature_end]

                

                <if condition="$show['postedited']">

                <!-- edit note -->

                        <div class="smallfont">                        <hr size="1" style="color:$stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]" />

                                <em>

                                <phrase 1="$post[edit_username]" 2="$post[edit_date]" 3="$post[edit_time]">$vbphrase[last_edited_by_x_on_y_at_z]</phrase>.

                                <if condition="$post['edit_reason']">$vbphrase[reason]: $post[edit_reason]</if>

                                </em>

                        </div>

                <!-- / edit note -->

                </if>

        

        </td>

</tr>

Replace With:

HTML Code:

        </td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td class="alt1" valign="bottom" style="border-right: $stylevar[cellspacing]px solid $stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]">

                $template_hook[postbit_signature_start]

                <if condition="$post['signature']">

                <!-- sig -->

                        <div valign="bottom">

                            __________________<br />

                            $post[signature]

                        </div>

                <!-- / sig -->

                </if>

                $template_hook[postbit_signature_end]

                <if condition="$show['postedited']">

                <!-- edit note -->

                        <div class="smallfont">                        <hr size="1" style="color:$stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]" />

                                <em>

                                <phrase 1="$post[edit_username]" 2="$post[edit_date]" 3="$post[edit_time]">$vbphrase[last_edited_by_x_on_y_at_z]</phrase>.

                                <if condition="$post['edit_reason']">$vbphrase[reason]: $post[edit_reason]</if>

                                </em>

                        </div>

                <!-- / edit note -->

                </if>

                </td>

</tr>
