Hi all,
I have now released my
Panic Button - Global hack for vBulletin 3.8.x at
Wolfshead Solutions, and is now available to download for all
vBulletin.org Hacks Support subscribers.
This hack will be released here at vBulletin.org on Saturday 20th March 2010.
Panic Button - Global is a variation to this hack (which only displays the Panic Button in the postbit).
Panic Button - Global gives your members their own vBulletin Boss Key (i.e. Panic button), which when enabled is displayed at the bottom right of every page including the CMS, blog and your own custom pages (as long as the
headinclude template is being called by the custom page, which it should be), so your members can quickly click themselves to the safety of legitimate url if the boss turns up, while your members are at work.
NOTE: The Panic Button will always float at the bottom right, even when you scroll down the page.
Panic Button - Global has been tested on Firefox 3.6, Chrome 4.0.249.89, Internet Explorer 8.0.7600.16385, Safari 4.04 and Opera 10.50. This should work with most other browsers and versions, but is
not guaranteed, as the positioning is controlled by CSS.
Panic Button - Global was created because I was inspired by the following two hacks:
Panic Button - Global is installed at
Wolfshead Solutions. To see a demonstration of this hack in action, all you need to do is be registered at
Wolfshead Solutionsand logged in, then click on
Settings in the header, then click
General Settings on the left. At the bottom are the settings to turn this hack on. I know my forum is vBulletin 4.0.x but it shows what the panic button will look like (looks the same regardless of version).
