[OzzModz] Advanced Footer
 
Another mod brought to you by,
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2015/01/1.png

This is a pretty cool mod that completely redesigns your forums footer. It adds everything into a block, and has four columns to display different info in them.
Inspiration came from Advanced Footer Rework coded by The Rocketeer and Awesome footer with Social Icons coded by socialteenz. Problem with those two mods that I had is it was all template editing, and I really don't like template edit mods on sites, I prefer it is all done automatically.

Another feature of this mod, is there is settings for the mod, that you can enter any custom code that any other mods have told you to add to the beginning or end of your footer. Again, this is designed so you do not have to do template editing. :)

It is a simple installation, upload the contents of the UPLOAD folder then import the product XML, ozzmodz_advanced_footer

You can edit the options under the settings, [OzzModz] Advanced Footer Settings
There is three ACP interface pages to add/edit the recommended links, quick links and the social media links.

Below is what the mod looks like running on the site.

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2014/11/8.png

Major Features

No Additional Queries: The awesome part of this mod is it uses the datastore, so it adds no additional queries to the site.

Disable On Styles: You can disable this mod on any style, in case it breaks the style.

Interactive Main ACP Pages: When viewing the links you added, you can set the display order, toggle the active status, toggle the _nofollow and toggle if the site opens in a new tab or same tab, all without editing each entry individually.

Unlimited Links: You can have as many links in each column as you want, there is no limits..

Usergroup Permissions: When adding or editing a link, you can select which usergroups can see the link.

It inherits the properties of all styles smoothly, from what I've seen.

Yeah it will inherit the style, but it may break some custom styles that don't use the traditional footer coding. :)

Max Taxable 11-25-2014 12:34 AM

For upgrade, just upload the new XML and set to overwrite?

Max Taxable 11-25-2014 12:35 AM

No need for uploading any of the files?

ozzy47 11-25-2014 12:39 AM

I don't believe there were any changes in the files from beta 4 to now, but it don't hurt to upload them. :)

Just uploaded this Mod, working great thanks. In the other footer I was using I was able to put my logo in the footer also. Is this possible with this Mod?

ozzy47 11-25-2014 02:42 AM

Not at this time, but perhaps in a future update. Glad you like it and thanks for marking as installed. :)

You should be able to put in a background image. I originally thought I would do that, but decided it was all good like it was.

Here's mine:

Thanks for the quick replies, But it appears this mod conflicts with the vBSocial Ultimate Notifications header, so I am going to have to disable for the moment...any quick fix?

ozzy47 11-25-2014 03:01 AM

Link to the mod, and I can look into it tomorrow.

I am using the pro version,

Toorak Times 11-25-2014 07:05 AM

Hi Ozzy,

I spoke to Dave from vBSocial and he is aware of the problem and recommends me moving the notifications variable out of the footer and into the header.

This mod has an area for other mods code, should I put it there mate?

ozzy47 11-25-2014 09:04 AM

Is it code he has you add to the footer, or is this through a plugin that does this automatically?

If it is code he has you add, yes add it either in the beginning code or end code setting in this mod. :)

It would be to much to add a space for a donation button, but you can do this. In the Genera settings, set the option About Column to No then in the setting About Text add what you want to say in that column.

Then you would add something like this.

HTML Code:

<br /><br /><a id="donate" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" alt="donate" title="donate" href="https://payal.com">
<img id="donate" alt="donate" title="donate" src="ozzmodz_mods/advanced_footer/images/paypal1.png">
</a>

Set the href="https://payal.com" to your paypal link, and set the image, ozzmodz_mods/advanced_footer/images/paypal1.png

I added it to both and it just added the code to the screen. I took it out of the footer and placed it in the box required in the admincp.
