does neone have a good stars hack for vbulletin version 2.0.3? if so, either post a url or something at least!!!:D

well? i know someone out there can help me pleaz?

It was right on the front page of vBulletin.org:

http://www.vbulletin.org/hacks/hacks...=gethack&id=38

Actually that hack was for vB1.1.4. However try taking a look in the releases forum here...

I modified the starhack 1.1.4 code to work with vB 2.0.3
Insert the bold code starting at line 164 of functions.php in the admin/directory (this code should be inside getpostbit())


You have to download starhack from the link I posted to get the images...

-Dennis

thnx dude it works perfect!!! you rule... now i just need some non blinkin stars >.< http://forums.twistedanime.net to see it!!

thnx again ^_^

Hmzz don't work good .. at my forum some admins have 4 stars .. but some super moderators having 5 stars .. .LOL that is ****ty ..

Do they have the appropriate user titles? If not, then just change the code.

Hmzz don't know I just put that code that U have written UP THERE :)


if ($post[customtitle]==2) {
$post[usertitle] = htmlspecialchars($post[usertitle]);
}

//START STARHACK!
if ($post[usertitle]=="Administrator") {
$post[usertitle]="$post[usertitle]<br><img src=\"images/star1.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/star2.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/star3.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/star4.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/star5.gif\" border=0>";
}
elseif ($post[usertitle]=="Super Moderator") {
$post[usertitle]="$post[usertitle]<br><img src=\"images/star1.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/star2.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/star3.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/star4.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/star5.gif\" border=0>";
}
elseif ($post[posts]>300) {
$post[usertitle]="$post[usertitle]<br><img src=\"images/star1.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/star2.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/star3.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/star4.gif\" border=0>";
}
elseif ($post[posts]>150) {
$post[usertitle]="$post[usertitle]<br><img src=\"images/star1.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/star2.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/star3.gif\" border=0>";
}
elseif ($post[posts]>75) {
$post[usertitle]="$post[usertitle]<br><img src=\"images/star1.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/star2.gif\" border=0>";
}
elseif ($post[posts]>37) {
$post[usertitle]="$post[usertitle]<br><img src=\"images/star1.gif\" border=0>";
}
else {
$post[usertitle] = $post[usertitle];
}
//END STARHACK!

$jointime = (time() - $post[joindate]) / 86400; // Days Joined
if ($jointime < 1) { // User has been a member for less than one day.
$postsperday = "$post[posts]";
} else {
$postsperday = sprintf("%.2f",($post[posts] / $jointime));
}

I meant, are the administrators labeled "Administrator" or are they like "Boss man"(or whatever)?

They are Main administirator .. and mods put their status .... something like Crazy mod or just like that :))

Hehe

In that case, you will have to check the usergroupid rather than the usertitle.

Admin = 6
Mod = 7
Super Mod = 5

Change the first seven lines(starting with //start starhack) to this

works great :)

Yep .. tnx man :)

i upgraded to 2.03 and found the stars hack for 2.01 didnt work-so i just borrowed showthread.php from 2.01 and replaced it-works great now :)

@ Maverick1236

If you use the showthread.php from 2.01 you havn´t any nav bars in a multiple sites thread to navigate between the different sites.

thanks for pointing that out-i tried putting the code before the pm link in functions.php rather than after-and it worked-go figure ;):)

I added the lines for the Admins and moderators and added 6 different customized titles. (just to play)

I had to adjust the information according to the post by Dennis when the USERGROUPID was needed for the title to work with the stars.

I also used a different group of stars with different colors for the ADMINS and Moderators.

Admin Stars = pend1.gif to pend5.gif
Super Mod Stars = pend6.gif to pend10.gif
Moderator Stars = pend11.gif to pend15.gif

The stars were made with Fireworks at 13 x 13 pixels. The backbround is transparent. After getting the star centered I adjusted the canvas size to 15 X 17 pixels to accomodate some spacing requirement. I exported the file as a gif.

All stars are in a zip file attached to this posting. I have also included the original Fireworks graphics for people who wish to change the color.

My titles for users are:

Seeker (Minimum Posts: 0) [edit] [remove]
Novice (Minimum Posts: 25) [edit] [remove]
Initiate (Minimum Posts: 50) [edit] [remove]
Member (Minimum Posts: 100) [edit] [remove]
Guide (Minimum Posts: 200) [edit] [remove]
Guru (Minimum Posts: 400) [edit] [remove]

These titles use all the same group of stars....pend16.gif, pend17.gif, pend18.gif, pend19.gif, pend20.gif

All total are the 3 indications for my groups and 6 user titles.

NOTES from TXT file ----------------------------------------------------------

Made by Wombag for all board in vbb :)

I modified the starhack 1.1.4 code to work with vB 2.0.3

1. Upload the file star.gif in your images directory.

2. Make a backup of functions.php in admin directory.

3. Open your functions.php file.


Insert the code starting //START STARHACK! at line 164 of functions.php.

This code should be inside getpostbit()

- Dennis

My additional notes ----------------------------------------------------------

I have 6 different user titles besides Administrator and Super Moderator

Admin = 6
Mod = 7
Super Mod = 5

I used a set of stars for each group.

1 - Red = Administrator - 7 point star.
2 - Green = Moderator - 5 point star
3 - Blue = Super Moderator - 7 point star.
4 - Yellow = User - 5 point star.

find the following code:------------------------------------------------------

if ($post[customtitle]==2) {
$post[usertitle] = htmlspecialchars($post[usertitle]);
}
add code:----------------------------------------------------------------------
//START STARHACK!
if ($post[usergroupid]==6) {
$post[usertitle]="$post[usertitle]<br><img src=\"images/pend1.gif\" border=0><img
src=\"images/pend2.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/pend3.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/pend4.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/pend5.gif\" border=0>";
}
elseif ($post[usergroupid]==5) {
$post[usertitle]="$post[usertitle]<br><img src=\"images/pend6.gif\" border=0><img
src=\"images/pend7.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/pend8.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/pend9.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/pend10.gif\" border=0>";
}
elseif ($post[usergroupid]==7) {
$post[usertitle]="$post[usertitle]<br><img src=\"images/pend11.gif\" border=0><img
src=\"images/pend12.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/pend13.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/pend14.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/pend15.gif\" border=0>";
}
elseif ($post[posts]>400) {
$post[usertitle]="$post[usertitle]<br><img src=\"images/pend16.gif\" border=0><img
src=\"images/pend17.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/pend18.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/pend19.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/pend20.gif\" border=0>";
}
elseif ($post[posts]>200) {
$post[usertitle]="$post[usertitle]<br><img src=\"images/pend16.gif\" border=0><img
src=\"images/pend17.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/pend18.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/pend19.gif\" border=0>";
}
elseif ($post[posts]>100) {
$post[usertitle]="$post[usertitle]<br><img src=\"images/pend16.gif\" border=0><img
src=\"images/pend17.gif\" border=0><img src=\"images/pend18.gif\" border=0>";
}
elseif ($post[posts]>50) {
$post[usertitle]="$post[usertitle]<br><img src=\"images/pend16.gif\" border=0><img
src=\"images/pend17.gif\" border=0>";
}
elseif ($post[posts]>25) {
$post[usertitle]="$post[usertitle]<br><img src=\"images/pend16.gif\" border=0>";
}
else {
$post[usertitle] = $post[usertitle];
}
//END STARHACK!

continued file code :----------------------------------------------------------

$jointime = (time() - $post[joindate]) / 86400; // Days Joined
if ($jointime < 1) { // User has been a member for less than one day.
$postsperday = "$post[posts]";
} else {
$postsperday = sprintf("%.2f",($post[posts] / $jointime));
}

The last post would not let me attach the stars file. Too large. I had to delete two of the original graphics. They are duplicates anyway - just different colors.

My stars are apearing below my userid's how can I move it below the posts.

Here is a link to my demo forum

Thing is, in my postbit it has $post[stars] below Posts so I mean it should work but for some reason it doesn't any help would be great.

Sorry Lubi. I don't see your stars anywhere. But your buttons are good. What program did you use?

What version are you running?? Of course I am not a moderator but after investigating this star thing for a bit, I found several items of interest and combined them to the information you see above. I am running version 2.0.3 - and this was a very easy hack. I am not a programmer and was able to manipulate the code easily.

See Ya!

Valk did a good job :)

dude it would have been a good idea to mention you'd 'borrow' the showthread.php from another version.

That's what has been confusing me as i said, there is no such code in 2.0.3....

Confusion now gone by accidently reading this thread :D

You may straighten that out in the other thread to not let people do harakiri while trying to find the replacement strings in showthread of 2.0.3

-Alex

PS: The other stars hack is workin perfectly with 2.0.3 when doing the appropriate adjustments mentioned in this thread
