Simple hack made for a friend of mine.

Quite simply adds a gradient instead of the boring solid colours used on the PM Inbox Status.

Version 2.0:

[F] Changed code to use "$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]" instead of absoloute URL's (thanks to jgommel)

Version 1.0:

Inital Release

Installation:

1) Upload attached "images" folder to your forums "images" folder.

2)

In pm_messagelist find:

==================================

HTML Code:

<if condition="$show['thisfoldertotal']"><td width="$tdwidth[folder]" style="background-color:red; font-size:10px" title="<phrase 1="$totalmessages">$vbphrase[messages_stored_in_folder_x]</phrase>">&nbsp;</td></if>

                                                                <if condition="$show['allfolderstotal']"><td width="$tdwidth[total]" style="background-color:orange; font-size:10px" title="<phrase 1="$bbuserinfo[pmtotal]">$vbphrase[total_messages_in_all_folders_x]</phrase>">&nbsp;</td></if>

                                                                <if condition="$tdwidth[quota] > 0"><td width="$tdwidth[quota]" style="background-color:green; font-size:10px" title="<phrase 1="$permissions[pmquota]">$vbphrase[maximum_allowed_messages_x]</phrase>">&nbsp;</td></if>

==================================

and replace with:

==================================

HTML Code:

<if condition="$show['thisfoldertotal']"><td width="$tdwidth[folder]" background="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/pm_red.gif" font-size:10px" title="<phrase 1="$totalmessages">$vbphrase[messages_stored_in_folder_x]</phrase>">&nbsp;</td></if>

<if condition="$show['allfolderstotal']"><td width="$tdwidth[total]" background="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/pm_orange.gif" font-size:10px" title="<phrase 1="$bbuserinfo[pmtotal]">$vbphrase[total_messages_in_all_folders_x]</phrase>">&nbsp;</td></if>

<if condition="$tdwidth[quota] > 0"><td width="$tdwidth[quota]" background="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/pm_green.gif" font-size:10px" title="<phrase 1="$permissions[pmquota]">$vbphrase[maximum_allowed_messages_x]</phrase>">&nbsp;</td></if>

==================================

3) Save and Enjoy :)

1st post !!

Thanks installed

Nice one! Looks purty... ;)

small but way better :-) thanks for this nice addon

Good idea! I just made one minor change (staying with traditional vb coding)...

I replaced all (3) image paths with
background="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/pm_red.gif"
background="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/pm_orange.gif"
background="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/pm_green.gif"

Code:

<if condition="$show['thisfoldertotal']"><td width="$tdwidth[folder]" background="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/pm_red.gif" font-size:10px" title="<phrase 1="$totalmessages">$vbphrase[messages_stored_in_folder_x]</phrase>">&nbsp;</td></if>

<if condition="$show['allfolderstotal']"><td width="$tdwidth[total]" background="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/pm_orange.gif" font-size:10px" title="<phrase 1="$bbuserinfo[pmtotal]">$vbphrase[total_messages_in_all_folders_x]</phrase>">&nbsp;</td></if>

<if condition="$tdwidth[quota] > 0"><td width="$tdwidth[quota]" background="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/pm_green.gif" font-size:10px" title="<phrase 1="$permissions[pmquota]">$vbphrase[maximum_allowed_messages_x]</phrase>">&nbsp;</td></if>

Updated to v2.0 - and credited ;)

hmm.... I'm sorry but I don't see why this is in the Hack section as it's simply a minor template modification. Don't get me wrong, it's a nice idea and looks good but I don't see why this justifies being in the hack section :/

Yes, I can tell. Not only did you post in the wrong section but you managed to post a template modification claiming it as a hack and obtaining coder status. I respect other coders for their time and effort that they put into their modifications to help make this forum software even better than it is. What you're doing is taking credit for something that you didn't earn since this is a small edit and doesn't justify your coder status in any way, shape, or form.

That's my opinion. You don't have to like it, just accept it. Don't bother coming up with any more intelligent replies to my comment as this will be the last thing I say in this thread.
