Pfft, and you didn't know what to hack? This is great :) will look into tonight

Dan	01-03-2004 01:53 AM

Technically I already hacked this. I just upgraded it to vB3.

Koutaru

01-03-2004 01:58 AM

I figured that would be your first vb3 hack here (seeing it at vbulletin.nl)

Would have been nice to have been told about this, since I created the original one ;)

gmarik

01-03-2004 12:37 PM

It would be cool if you hack could read my:
1) winamp playlist
2) Windows media player playlist

and copy info from them - maybe you should ask some help at the winamp board?

Dan	01-03-2004 01:02 PM

Sorry Man, I thought you had disappeared or something and I had already hacked it in for vB3 a couple months ago. If you want credit or something I can give it to you. But I really didn't know you even created the original one.

This is a great hack, and I can't wait to install it.

The only thing is, I'm new to this, and at the risk of looking stupid, what do you mean when you say

"-----------
|Run Query|
-----------

ALTER TABLE post ADD nowplaying VARCHAR(40) NOT NULL"

:ermm:

I'm not sure where to do this, and its probably very simple and obvious, but like I said, I'm new. :disappointed:

Thanks

MindTrix

01-03-2004 05:49 PM

Everyone starts somewhere mate ;)

A query is basically a piece of code that needs to be run on your MYSQL database, Usualy in PHPMYADMIN that your host should have linked you too, or you will find in your hosts Control Panel.

mmw	01-03-2004 05:52 PM

In phpMyAdmin select the database then click on query and just past the code from above and click submit query. If you don't have access to phpmyadmin or something similar just email your webhosts asking them to do it for you :)

I may actually use this mod. It'll be easier than having it done via Profile Field.

here is the way I modded the postbits, regular and legacy, this puts the nowplaying box under the attachments in a box like the attachments use

HTML Code:

---------

|postbit|

--------- 

&

----------------

|postbit_legacy|

----------------

Find:

<!-- / attachments -->

Below add:

</if>

 

<if condition="$post['nowplaying']">

<!-- nowplaying -->

<div style="padding:6px">

        <fieldset class="fieldset">

         <legend>Now Playing</legend>

         <div style="padding:3px" align="center">

<img src="/images/smilies/091.gif" alt="This song kicks ass!" 

border="0" /><smallfont><b>$post[nowplaying]</b></smallfont></div>

        </fieldset>

</div>

<!-- / nowplaying -->

attached are examples :)

Dan	01-04-2004 02:59 AM

thanks for doing that I just put it in a place i could easily find a spot to put it. If you wouldn't mind I would like to add this to the install file.

go for it, my members loved this for vb2, so I am grateful you did this for vb3, if you need the rockin' out mullet smilie, I will attach it just in case :)

I installed this and my members are using and loving it. The only thing they have mentioned is that sometimes they forget to fill in the form, and would like to go back and edit thier song in or correct their spelling mistakes in the song title etc.

Would there be a way to modify a template or one of the php pages in order to show the "now playing" field after a member clicks his or her edit button?

Just curious :o

Brad	01-04-2004 08:37 AM

It is not hard to add that to the modification but I dont have time to document the changes atm, ill post them later on today when I find the time.

It's nice Sixxgunzz but the fieldset/legend lines are always white and on a dark style it looks terrible. Is there a way to color the lines in these fieldset blocks?

MindTrix

01-04-2004 12:05 PM

Hey Dan, you might want to add in the instructions when editin the postbit template, to edit the postbit_legacy one aswell ;)

Dan	01-04-2004 03:08 PM

I will when i get home... not home at this current time... it is simple to do though.

I was looking thru the templates and couldn't find the info that tells vb what the legend is supposed to look like, all we have to do is find where that is and then it should be easy as pie.

SiXXGuNNZ

01-04-2004 07:58 PM

it is easy, in the style's css

HTML Code:

legend

{

 color: #22229C;

 font: 11px tahoma, verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif;

}

NuclioN

01-04-2004 08:00 PM

in the extra css box i've added this as a replacement for the default fieldset:

Code:

.fieldset {

  border: 2px groove #778;

  padding: 2px;

  margin-bottom: 4px;

}

.legend {

  position: relative;

  top: -1em;

  left: 0.5em; 

  background-color: #445;

  font-size: x-small;

}

.fieldset p {

  margin-top: -5px;

}

were the colorcode can be altered :)

hey got a problem
I want to

1. Limit the characters that can be input in this field because it can squish the postbit up.
2. When posting with a new thread, i get one of the de-notations as used in the code as in <--- Now Playing then it goes to the box
3. I want to write above the input "Song now playing: (Not Required)
4. I want to be able to have this input box BELLOW the post where you can add attachments etc.

4. I did this on my board.

instead of adding the  section after the  as instructed in the orignal instructions, replace it after this instead:

HTML Code:

<!-- message area -->

<div class="smallfont">$vbphrase[message]:</div>                

$messagearea

<!-- / message area -->

MrWee

01-05-2004 02:56 AM

what can i add to the code to not allow html?

A sweet addon would be to have the last time nowplaying in your Profile.

Anyone works on Now Playing in Quick Reply Box ?

Sorry... at this time my computer is down and I'm unable to help support my hack currently. Hopefully I'll be up and running again in the next few weeks. I am sorry to anyone this may trouble.

Yeah, i also got it in the quick reply box, although it doesn't look very pretty.

i put the same  block of code in the "showthread_quickreply" template
after this:

HTML Code:

<!-- no-toolbar quick reply -->



        <div class="controlbar">

                <textarea name="message" id="qr_message" class="bginput" style="width:600px; height:100px;" rows="5" cols="60" tabindex="1"></textarea>                

        </div>



<!-- / no-toolbar quick reply -->        

</if>

I dunno if that was the best place to put it, but i have it centered under the text input field, and it works, so it's good for me :)
