Nice;):)

You could have released this as an update to your previous thread? :(

This is a slightly different hack though. The other version requires little less hassle than this one. This one allows you to add any tags you wish, the other only allows you to change colour for a font tag.

Yay you finally did it, was easy wasn't it? I gave you the idea though remember :p

Yes, it was incredibly easy:p

Doing WOL and forumdisplay later tonight.

Hehe, I was thinking to a such hack during the afternoon, It's now released :)

Good job assassingod ;)

Thanks Bastien:D:)

So we can expect to see a mega-release of this hack in the near future with all member name places all together eh?

Memberlist, profile, postbit, small who's online forumhome list, last poster on forumhome and forumdisplay, forumdisplay thread starter, forumdisplay WOL, online.php, search results, calendar, userCP, just some places where there are usernames ;).

Yes, yes you will.

Its not exactly hard:p;)

Its still basically the same idea....

Well, I can't disagree, but I felt this was needed as a seperate hack as per the reasons I mentioned earlier.

i take it this can only be used for the default usergroups and not new ones?

That's correct.

Is there any way of changing it to allow other usergroups - or altering the ones there that arent in the $highlightadmin groups

You mean this hack working for other usergroups? It's easy really. Want any help just ask

Im sorry but i dont get this bit


Could you explain what i have to do for this bit =/

EDIT i think i have found that i have to edit the styles, trying this now, then i have to find out how to change the formatting in the admin panel


Imp

To add replacements;

Admin CP -> Replacments -> Add

Check the screenshot if you still aren't sure.

Thanks!!!

Okay, how would i add another group that i have made?

surely it aint as simple as adding

and


and one for goldc

Or is it?


Imp

I would like to add a group which hasn't got admin rights - how would i go about doin that?

In a little while, i'll make tutorial on how to add custom usergroup for this hack:)

Thnx

Hey! I've installed this, but now i cant find where to do all that stuff in my CP.

Can someone show me?

thanks for ya time.

Read the txt file, and add the part at the bottom in the place shown in the comment.


Imp

Its under 'Styles', when you edit one:)

What do you mean?

I installed and reinstalled this hack and everytime I get this error when I go to edit the colors and tags.

And this is the line it is calling about:

I have all the php files edited right and I have added everyone of the replacement need. Running vb 2.3.0. Any ideas anybody?

That code shouldnt be on line 128, 678 is correct.

Are you sure you are installing this correctly?

I went back and open up the clean original non hacked style.php just to make sure. And what I found was that the line:

appears twice in the file. One on line 123 and the other on line 681. So I went back and edited the style.php file and move the code on the line 681 and now it works. Just a suggestion, you made want to say something about the line appearing twice in the instructions because most stupid people like me won't have known...:).

Thanks for that, I wasnt aware that there was 2 doformfooters, thanks:)

Hey, I have also noticed that when I used the color tags..the color doesn't show up on WOL but does on the forum home. Is it supposed to be that way?

I havent gotten around to writing the code for WOL and forumdisplay, but I can release it tomorrow:)

Oh that greats...I was just wondering if I did or didn't something.

Added: Colour legend (check screenshot 2) added, re-download and do step 4.

To-do - WOL, forumdisplay and add your own usergroup.

Keeps getting better and better....

Hey assassingod I don't have

in my forumhome_loggedinusers template. Here is what mine is, it is the default template so I know it is good.

I am running version 2.30 if that helps.

My fault, will sort in a minute
