How do I add a table between postbit and post area
 

I want to add a table/cell between the postbit and the post area.

How can I do this?

Here's a screen shot of where I want it.... Attachment 99557

could you post your postbit template arny?

Hey tipoboy! :D

I've attached my postbit. Thanks for taking a look! :up:

is it a new table you want arny or just a new row?

You know, I basically want to add my icons that are in the postbit area now to have their own row and be able to stretch 100% across the site.

Can a new row be added to the bottom to go across 100% or would I need a new section under it?

the new row will be exactly the same size as the table, therefor it would span 100% the same as the row above and below :D

Oh, okay...that would be great! :D

Now, once it's done would I simply add the variable for the icons in that new row?

yea probably, i've attached the new postbit template all you need to do is search for "add your content here" and add your code there and thats your new row :D

Gonna try it now! Thanks brotha!

no probs mate :D

I have to find the variable for the mod, but I noticed that it added a row, but it's white. Do I have to do something special to make the background the same color as that greyish color I have there?

ok hold on 2 secs, i pm you on your board too lol :D

try that now mate

Thanks! :up:

I thought that was all that I had to do, but I noticed that there were white lines above and below the new row, so I wasn't sure if I was doing it right. :D

I'm trying to find the variable and I'll add it. I can't wait to see if this works right! :)

let me know how you get on buddy :D

Here's an example of what I did with your help....

....but, it shows up in the private messages as well. Can I place an "if statement" to avoid the new row and the 'frame' that I added to it from showing in the private messages?

that bit i dont know, you probably can i'll see if i can find something

ok try this:

<if condition="THIS_SCRIPT != 'private'">
code for the row
</if>

postbit with the if condition, remember you'll have to add your variable again:D

Worked great Dave! :up:

Thanks my friend! You are THE man! :D

no probs mate glad to help :D

I'm wondering.....where would I add it to place it right above the signature (and below that horizontal line)?

I wanted to see if it would look better. Where would I place that?

to put it inbetween the horizontal line and the signature, it would be inside a conditional and wouldnt show if the user hasnt got a signature.

what you could do is put it right at the bottom of the signature, or possibly above the line?

Gotcha. So, it would be best to have it right above the signature line so that it avoids not showing up those folks that don't have a signature.

Put it above this code, right?

Yikes, that didn't work. :(

I'll wait for the correct place to put it :)

you're on the right track but a new row wouldn't work there as at that point the table has been closed,

right above:

give this a try:

let me know how you get on mate

Okay, so I'm close :)

Now, I have that 'frame' all the way around the sig field as well.

Here's the code I'm using....


...it's from the mod here https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=118076

And, I'm guessing that it's something other than "alt2" since it's a darker color than the post area background.

Got it, removed the <div> and now I just have to do some adjustments with the line breaks :)

I'm assuming you dont want it all the way round the sig therefor give this a try:

Dave, I had already removed the <div> tag and then added some line breaks before the code and removed the one after so it wasn't so far from the sig line. I also changed the alt2 to alt1, IIRC, to make it match the background of the posting area.

Was I okay to remove that <div> tag that followed </legend>?

Oh, just noticed something. The 'frame' around it shows even if someone doesn't have any of the icons. What kind of "if statement" do I add for it not to show if there isn't one showing?

I'm unsure about that arny, you could possibly ask the original author of the mod if the code can be used in a if condition :)

Yup, good advice Dave. I've already posed the question. Hopefully I'll have a solution soon enough. :D

Thanks again for your help my friend! :up:
