Panic Button 1.0.1

This is a Panic Button (Should work in IE and FF) in case a member is worried about being on your site at a particular time, for example, at work.

The button defaults to staying glued to the lower right hand corner, but this can be changed in the CSS settings stated below.

The button can also be turned off by each member if they don't want to use it.

This is a hybrid of my Boss Button and yinyangs work to make the java right.

If you have the Custom Error Pages hack installed on a Windows server, you need to edit the settings to use URLs and not files or this will conflict.

The image I use is can obviously be substituted with anything else you like. Just be sure to name your image "panicbutton.gif".

This may be copied, reproduced or published anywhere without my permission.

vB 3.5 Beta Version

Demo Please do not register.

Details
-------
2 Files to upload (1 Javascript File and 1 Panic Button image)
2 New Profile Field entries (Remember the Field ID# !!)
1 New CSS definition
1 Template Edit

You can change the placement of the image anywhere on the screen by editing the .panicbutton CSS.

That's great! Thanks! Could this possibly be toggled on/off by the user?

Yes there is an option in the install for that.

yup. the 2 new profile field entries allow the following 2 options:

1. Turn the Panic Button On/Off with On being the default
2. Allows each user to specify which URL for the panic button to send them to.

If someone wants, you can also add two more profile fields that controls a) top or bottom of screen and b) left or right. you would just substitute the corresponding profile field in the Panic Button CSS definitions.

Never thought of that. Cool idea.

This seems more like a "Misc. Option" Than a profile field :cross-eyed:

I hate to be a pain, but I installed this on a 3.0.7 forum, and it doesn't seem to be working for me. I triple-checked the edits, and css and also checked the proflile field ID in PHPMyAdmin to make sure that they were correct, but it still doesn't work. Yes, I also uploaded the javascript and image as mentioned in the read me. There are only a few steps, so I am at a loss to see what I did wrong.

I suppose you could put the fields anywhere you like.

Open your site and do a veiw source. Search the source for panic.

Is everything there correct?

Look for the CSS entry first. Then look at the URL for the script, the destination URL for the button and the image file.

You may want to edit the code to show a full URL if they are not correct.

It doesn't seem to be pulling the javascript in from the script. Here is a screen shot of the file uploaded to my ftp:

Show me the code you have in the header, it seems to be missing.

Give me a few lines after as well.

Mine shows this in view source:

Code:

<!-- BEGIN TEMPLATE: header -->

<!-- PANIC BUTTON 1.00 for vBulletin 3.5.0 beta by YinYang/dsboyce8624-->



<!--[if lt IE 7]><script src="http://damn.that-sucks.net/clientscript/panicbutton.js" type="text/javascript"></script><![endif]-->

<div class=panicbutton>

<a href="http://www.yahoo.com"><img src="http://damn.that-sucks.net/images/misc/panicbutton.gif" border="0" alt="Panic Button"></a>

</div>

<!-- END PANIC BUTTON 1.00 for vBulletin 3.5.0 beta by YinYang/dsboyce8624-->

<!-- logo -->
