Birthday, User Age and Zodiac Hack v1.2 (Working Version)
Birthday, User Age and Zodiac Hack (Working Version)
Version 1.2 by Boofo (and Logician) A very big Thank You goes out to Logician for helping to make this hack a reality. Without his expert coding and guidance, it would never have been. And a thank you also goes out to Slynderdale for giving me the idea to make this hack. Although I could never get his hack to work, it gave me some general ideas of where to start from. What this hack does: This will allow you to have the user's age, zodiac sign and chinese zodiac sign in the profile. It will also allow you to have the variable filled in instead of showing nothing if no information was entered. (NOTE: This birthday code will also fix the problem that some people have encountered with the birthdate not displaying the correct date if the users birthday was before December 31, 1969. This was only reported to happen on a few installations on certain servers.) Version 1.0 - Originally written for vBulletin 2.2.5 without the images showing. Version 1.1 - Updated to work with vBulletin 2.2.9 and added images for the zodiac signs. Version 1.2 - Updated the instruction file to avoid anyone changing the wrong birthday code. This hack has been tested on version 2.2.9. Files to edit: 1 (root/member.php) Files to upload: 12 (zodiac image files) Templates to Edit: 1 (getinfo) [high]Please lick the install button if you find this hack useful.[/high] |
Would we be able to put this info into a postbit?
|
It shouldn't be too hard to port it over to that. I can take a look at it and see what I can come up with. The image might be a little much for the postbit, though. What all do you want in the postbit? Erwin released a User Age hack for the postbit already. ;)
|
I want the symbol in the symbols in the post bit. I haven't looked at the pictures if they are big i'd make new ones that would be smaller for the postbit
|
The symbol? Please show me an image or something of what you mean.
|
images as in the zodiac symbols
|
Thanks for sharing :)
Installed, and works great. Here is a screeny for anyone that wants to have a look: |
LOL Thanks for the image. I knew I was forgetting something. Glad you like the hack. ;)

No prob. Posting a screenshot is the easy part, writing a hack like this...that's where it gets tricky, so thank you ;) |
You're very welcome. Enjoy! ;)
|

/me clicks install and watches it work like a dream |
Hmm most of that is the same code I had for my zodiac hack plus if you check the thread i Uploaded version 2.0 with code fixes and also improved the code alot

My updated code is also template driven for easy editing online, I uploaded the fixed 2.0 quite a while ago and it works well, I tested it on a few boards.
Hmm, only one person had a problem with it because they copied the code in a wrong please, Im not trying to be mean or any thing, and Im not mad or any thing. Good work though with fixing this. |
I've many hacks installed and my birthdaycode looks a bit different and i can't replace it with the code from this hack because it then displayed no birthdaybits anymore and wrong dates. Can you make it work with this??
Code:
|
beauty. at the top of my 2do list :D
|
You're in the wrong section of the member.php. You need to be in the "start get info" section. ;)

:shame: :) Thanks Boofo. I hope you can let this also work in the postbit. Great hack.

Nice work Boofo ...
Now it would be great to add a clear image in the image placeholder for those members that don't want to share their age! That *blank* image placeholder looks out of place! ;) |
On my site, I use Logician's Dynamic Templates hack and just have the whole line not show if there isn't a birth year entered. I suppose I could go in and do a space fix for that, unless you have an image to replace that. ;)
|
lol the example birthday you used is my birthday!

November 27th, 1981? |
Update!
There is a broken image if the birth year is not entered in the profile. To fix this, do the following: In member.php, find: $zodiacimage=$zodiacsign.".gif"; And replace it with: [disable]$zodiacimage = "<img src=\"{imagesfolder}/zodiac/$zodiacsign.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"$zodiacsign\" align=\"absmiddle\">";[/disable] In the getinfo template, find: <tr> [disable] <td bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}"><normalfont><b>Zodiac Sign:</b></normalfont></td>[/disable] [disable] <td bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}"><img src="{imagesfolder}/zodiac/$zodiacimage" border="0" alt="$zodiacsign" align="absmiddle"></td>[/disable] </tr> And replace it with: <tr> [disable] <td bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}"><normalfont><b>Zodiac Sign:</b></normalfont></td>[/disable] [disable] <td bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}">$zodiacimage</td>[/disable] </tr> [high]The install file in the first post is now updated.[/high] ;) |

There's already been a gender hack released a while ago. ;)

hi
I changed it but nothing appaer now ! |
If they don't enter a birth year, there won't be an age. Check to see if they have entered their birth year. ;)
Are you trying to put the age in the postbit or getinfo template? |
Looks good boofo. Will try to install it later :D

Thank you for the kind words. Don't forget to (c)lick install. :) Enjoy. :)
