first thankz for this hack but i have one problem

PHP Code:


		
			
  $newsfadebits = "\"welcome new member<b>$newusername</b>\",\"\",\n";

i use this code but it did not show up the username

what's wrong??

epic	11-21-2001 03:37 AM

1. use "ultra edit32" open hack's txt file.
2. this hack can use in vbb220 or vbb221 because this code:

$newsfades=$DB_site->query("SELECT title,pagetext FROM announcement WHERE enddate>='$datenow' AND forumid=0 ORDER BY startdate DESC");

3. this code

$newsfadebits = "\"welcome new member<b>$newusername</b>\",\"\",\n";

I have no time to test.Because i have not use this code. :rolleyes:

You have to move the code for index.php further down the page. $newusername hasn't been determined yet if you put it where the instructions say. I put it right after:

PHP Code:


		
			
// get newest member

$getnewestusers=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT userid,username FROM user WHERE userid=$numbersmembers[max]");

$newusername=$getnewestusers['username'];

$newuserid=$getnewestusers['userid'];

on my test board and it works that way.

In your admin on the left frame under Announcements, you see News
Add | Modify

Are you using bold HTML tags when you enter the news? I do and it works fine.

Make the first line of the index.php part of the hack look like this:

PHP Code:


		
			
 $newsfadebits = "\"Welcome to our newest member <b>$newusername</b>\",\"\",\n";

snyx	11-26-2001 02:23 AM

arg, im so lazy tho...

Psychdrone

11-26-2001 07:35 PM

hmmmmm thanks for your help, but it only says welcome to or newest member, by the way i am using 2.2.1 so maybe its a different code?

THANKSA!!

Read the first page of this thread. I explain how to fix that there. You have to move the hack further down in index.php so the $newusername value is determined before this hack. It's always a good idea to read the whole thread before installing a hack. I even read the 15 page ones. :)

I'm having the same problem, I put the code where you said but it doesn't cycle for some reason?

JTMON

11-27-2001 01:43 AM

I just reread the instructions. Didn't realize I had to move the entire hack below that line. DOH :D

It works now. That's what counts. :)

JTMON

11-27-2001 01:48 AM

Well acutally no it's not now either :(

I made the changes, but it only shows the new member, then it cycles away and nothing comes up. I added a test news messge too:(

JTMON

11-27-2001 01:50 AM

:rolleyes:

again I misspoke. It cycles to my test message but because I hyperlinked it, it's the same color as the bacground:D

How do I change the fader background color? and font color on fader itself?

Also, it cylces to my test message and stops. shouldn't it keep going in a circle back to newest member?

The fader background color and font color are at the top of the fader.js file. You can also change the color of the cell around the fader in the forumhome template addition. I am not sure why you wouldn't continuously cycle unless you changed the number of cycles in the fader.js file. I think it defaults to 100.

JTMON

11-27-2001 02:14 AM

Can I use the vbulletin variables like {tableheadcolor} in the .js file?

THANK YOU:D:D:D:D:D:D

JTMON

11-27-2001 02:23 AM

No you can't I find out;)

All is working! Thanks FWC!! and Arrow for this hack!!

One question, i added:

PHP Code:


		
			
$newsfadebits = "\"Welcome to our newest member <b>$newusername</b>\",\"\",\n";

After this:

PHP Code:


		
			
// get newest member

$getnewestusers=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT userid,username FROM user WHERE userid=$numbersmembers[max]");

$newusername=$getnewestusers['username'];

$newuserid=$getnewestusers['userid'];

And it works fine, it says: Welcome to our newest member username....

but it dont scrolls to the next news item, it only says welcome to our newest member :(

Does anyone know how 2 fix this?

JTMON

12-05-2001 06:33 PM

I had the same problem, the solution is on page 1 of this hack, you need to move ALL the code below a certain point.

JTMON

12-05-2001 10:27 PM

Anyone know how I can have birthdays auto-show in there for 1 day?

Psychdrone

12-05-2001 10:36 PM

Thanks, first it didnt worked but then i replaced this rule:

PHP Code:


		
			
$newsfadebits = "";

with:

PHP Code:


		
			
$newsfadebits = "\"Welcome to our newest member <b>$newusername</b>\",\"\",\n";

And it works perfect now :)

Maybe:

PHP Code:


		
			
$newsfadebits = "\"Happy Birthday to <b>$birthdays</b>\",\"\",\n";

???
