This hack was requested by Sinema.

1. Open functions.php (in your admin folder), and find

PHP Code:


		
			
        if ($avatarurl=="" or ($bbuserinfo[userid]>0 and !($bbuserinfo[showavatars]))) {

            $post[avatar]="";

        } else {

            eval("\$post[avatar] = \"".gettemplate("postbit_avatar")."\";");

        }

replace it with

PHP Code:


		
			
        if ($avatarurl=="" or ($bbuserinfo[userid]>0 and !($bbuserinfo[showavatars]))) {

            $post[avatar]="";

        } else {

            if ($post[homepage]!="" and $post[homepage]!="http://") {

              eval("\$post[avatar] = \"".gettemplate("postbit_avatar_link")."\";");

            } else {

              eval("\$post[avatar] = \"".gettemplate("postbit_avatar")."\";");

            }

        }

2. Add a template and name it postbit_avatar_link with this

PHP Code:


		
			
<a href="$post[homepage]" target="_blank"><img src="$avatarurl" border="0" alt="Visit $post[username]'s homepage!"></a>

And that's it! :)

It's like presetting the image

Lets say your using a button for TheBronze.tv

the image was created for TheBronze.tv so when the person selects it .. it automatically is linked back to

http://www.thebronze.tv

this way people can't use the "Bronze" button to promote their own site ..

I keep getting a parse error on line 226 of Functions.php

I've retried 4 times just to make sure with the same results each time. Any Idea's?

Omega: No, I mean functions.php. :)

Sinema: Would someone explain me what he wants? :p

Piston: What version of vB are you running, and what's line 226?

LoL let me try again

Right now you can use buttons and whatever URL you enter in your Profile is the url that is used.

However I'm curious if there is a way to preset the URL

So if a user selects an Avatar from Avatars uploaded .. the url is already preset .

Example

Joe Bob goes and selects an avatar for the site "SpikeSpotting.com"

The avatar is a button promoting the site "SpikeSpotting.com"

instead of Joe Bob going into his profile and entering in http://www.spikespotting.com in his "Homepage" section ..

the urls could be preset so he selects the SpikeSpotting avatar and it automatically hyperlinks to http://www.spikespotting.com

This would stop users from using Buttons to promote their own site and have them promote the site of the avatar they are using.

All times are GMT. The time now is 01:39 PM.
