Oh just wanted to ask if there was anyway to customize the
background color of the box?

Thanks :)

To make the box collapse ---

In template latest_news, find:

Code:

<td class="tcat">Latest News</td>

Replace with:

Code:

<td class="tcat"><a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('latenews')"><img id="collapseimg_latenews" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_tcat$vbcollapse[collapseimg_latenews].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>Latest News</td>

Find:

Code:

  </tr>

  <tr>

Replace with:

Code:

  </tr>

<tbody id="collapseobj_latenews" style="$vbcollapse[collapseobj_latenews]">

  <tr>

Find:

Code:

</table>

Add above:

Code:

</tbody>

Ah, yes. I was wondering about that. Didn't quite mind the bold text as a header and didn't really feel the need to add a thead on a box with only one short blurb in it... Still I'll install the update. Thanks!

Don't remove that code. Re-install the product, and don't edit that template (latest_news).

Hope that helps.

Thanks

Considering this hack doesn't use bitfields for Usergroup Permissions, you should do the following.

Create a new plugin.
Product: Latest News
Hook Location: parse_templates
Title: Latest News Usergroup Perms
Execution Order: 5
Plugin PHP Code:

PHP Code:


		
			
if ((THIS_SCRIPT == 'index') AND $vbulletin->options['enable_ltnews'])
{
    $augs = explode(',', $vbulletin->options['ugroups_lt']);

    $mgs = explode(',', $vbulletin->userinfo['membergroupids']);

    if (is_array($augs))
    {
        foreach ($augs AS $aug)
        {
            if (is_array($mgs))
            {
                foreach ($mgs AS $mg)
                {
                    $news_allow = (trim($aug) == $mg) ? true : $news_allow;
                }
                unset($mg, $mgs);
            }

            $news_allow = (trim($aug) == $vbulletin->userinfo['usergroupid']) ? true : $news_allow;
        }
        unset($aug);
    }
    unset($augs);
}

Then edit your template latest_news.

Find:

PHP Code:


		
			
<if condition="$bbuserinfo[usergroupid]== $vboptions['ugroups_lt']{0} OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]== $vboptions['ugroups_lt']{2} OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]== $vboptions['ugroups_lt']{4} OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]== $vboptions['ugroups_lt']{6} OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]== $vboptions['ugroups_lt']{8} OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]== $vboptions['ugroups_lt']{10}">

Replace with:

PHP Code:


		
			
<if condition="$news_allow">

yep thats true, i have had to remove the code,

oops cross posted lol

02-12-2007 02:33 PM

Sorry for the foolish question all. I uploaded the XML file, and inserted the $latest_news at the bottom of the navbar template as instructed. I see nothing, get nothing. Is there something I'm missing? Do I need to 'turn on this feature'? Change any settings? I am very new at all of this. Any help would be appreciated.

Yeah I know what its doing:

Usergroup 11 would allow Usergroup 1 to view the news

Even if you added 11,12,2,4,5,6

Usergroup 1 would still be able to view it fully.

I tried the same thing by looking on my laptop and using my PC in the admincp.

As soon as I removed my usergroup 11 I could then view the news as a guest on my laptop.

So all 2 digit numbers are not working :(

Will there be any fix to this soon?

I really like this mod :)

Doesn't seem to work for Mod ID numbers. I.e. i have a mod that is assigned to the mod group (7 i think) and cannot see the news. All other groups 1 - 6 including me the admin can however and i have checked and she's right, nothing shows. Any ideas ?

Looks like an awesome hack! Unfortunately, I'm using vb3.5 and can't import the product. Can you perhaps make something like this for 3.5 or is there already anything similar to this for 3.5?

Anyway, good job mate! Looks like a good hack...

thincom2000

02-22-2007 11:42 AM

You should be able to edit the product in NotePad or something and change the Product Dependency from 3.6 to 3.5. Of course I didn't author the hack, but I don't think there should be any problems running it on 3.5, considering it doesn't really make use of anything that changed (such as the datastore).

What DOCUMENT TYPE are you using on your board? By default you should not have a problem with the <tbody> tag.

<br> will be W3C compliant if changed to <br />

Hello, I'm using DOCTYPE by Default

Quote:

!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

are you sure you don't have that problem using the same default doctype with this product enabled?

The tbody are allowed but not where it is now if not in a table

thincom2000

02-27-2007 01:44 PM

Perhaps you edited your template and messed up the table code, because I'm positive <tbody> is used properly.

On another note, I would recommend the author change the usergroup part of the code. It will make the template code a lot cleaner, easier for users to understand, and will work for membergroups as well. I made a suggestion like this earlier, but now this one is much simpler.

First, edit the plugin Templating Starting.
Replace the Plugin Code with:

PHP Code:


		
			
if ((THIS_SCRIPT == 'index') AND $vbulletin->options['enable_ltnews'])
{
    $ugroups_lt = explode(',', $vbulletin->options['ugroups_lt']);
    eval('$latest_news = "' . fetch_template('latest_news') . '";');
}

Now edit the template latest_news. Find:

Code:

<if condition="$vboptions[enable_ltnews]"><if condition="$bbuserinfo[usergroupid]== $vboptions['ugroups_lt']{0} OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]== $vboptions['ugroups_lt']{2} OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]== $vboptions['ugroups_lt']{4} OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]== $vboptions['ugroups_lt']{6} OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]== $vboptions['ugroups_lt']{8} OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]== $vboptions['ugroups_lt']{10}">

Replace with:

Code:

<if condition="$vboptions['enable_ltnews'] AND is_member_of($bbuserinfo, $ugroups_lt)">

Then find:

Code:

</if></if>

Replace with:

Code:

</if>
