-Version 1.32- Works vB 3.6 -vB 3.5 (special xml file inside zip)
********************************************* By C?dric Claerhout and Calorie
-Description-
This modification allows you to have new looks for quote, code, phg and html bbcodes. The installation is automatic ; the setup is very easy.
-Features-
Five news looks for bbcodes in order to enhance your messages : Light bbcode set ; Dark bbcode set ; Pastel bbcode set ; Simple bbcode set and Simple bbcode with transparency b/g. Configure this sets according to your styles. If you forget or don't want to specify a set for a style, it will use the defaut vB display.
GIF or PNG formats available for pictures. Autodetect IE 6 function to use gif extension for this browser. In order to work efficiently the Cached Posts Lifespan must be set to 0 in vB options
This hack works with vBa CMPS : it uses special templates to avoid to break the front page. The detection is automatic (since 1.31 version).
You can configure : the left margin of bbcode, the color and the size of text.
You can set a link to quoted user profile. It creates a clickable link between the person's username being quoted and her profile.
Mono or double bubbles for simple quote bbcode | special behaviour for quotes of light, dark and pastel sets.
-Installation-
Upload "bbcodemanager" pictures directory in vBulletin images directory : /forums/images/
Import the product xml file
Configure the mod in vBulletin options -> "BBcode templates manager"

-14/08/2006 : version 1.30 released thanks to Calorie : the installation is now fully automatic ; you just have to upload product file and that's all (no need to edit php file anymore) ; the english translation is also better thanks to Calorie.

-12/07/2006 : version 1.2 released ; new installation procedure ; many big problems corrected ; html code of new bbodes templates updated ; tested and validated XHTML
-03/07/2006 : now you can config several style ids
-Important-
To update from 1.30 just import the product file
To uninstall version 1.1 or version 1.2, you have to follow a specific procedure described in the archive.
[s]To avoid display problems, i strongly advice you to set the "Code Block Width" (available in you style options) to 100%. If you prefer pixels, choose a little value ; especually if you're using legacy postbit. Never enter "auto" otherwise it won't work.[/s]
The "Code Block Width" must be in pixels Otherwise there are too numerous problems. So forget my advice to put a value in %. It must be in pixels. In 800x600 there is a display problem, but it's the same thing with vb default templates. So i guess we can't do anything.
If the text display doesn't suite you, you can do easily what you want. Just turn off the "CSS BBcode text" module and create the CSS : .bbcode
Do it on your own : you won't be helped for this.

Well I dunno what happened, but this was working fine for me before and now with the upgrade following it to the letter, it's gone? No nice boxes now at all.
Don't forget to modify your "forums/includes/class_bbcode.php" file and to configure the mod. Then, try to type a new message and see the result.

Already did all that and just retired it all and for some reason it is only working on Default Style only and no other styles, even though I have them all saved in options. Any clues as to why it's doing that please?

Bug confirmed Just put one style id and it will work. Arg. I'll work on it.
Mate, in your first post, u never mentioned (and in bold u should imho) that after we uninstall it, we will loose all the html code of new bbodes templates. I find it very bad, and if the others understood what i mean, will agree (just download the zip and see the details).

Will this, affect in anyway, our style templates?
If you uninstall version 1.1 and install version 1.2 you don't loose any html code. But it seems there is still a problem i need to fix to make it work well.
The problem : if you only specify one style per set, it will work ; otherwise it won't.
Version 1.2 is out :
-new installation procedure
-many big problems corrected
-html code of new bbodes templates updated
-new bbodes templates tested and validated XHTML
To uninstall version 1.1, follow this procedure. Sorry for this. The version 1.2 avoids this now.
If I revert back to the master is this going to mess with any of my other, hacks I installed ??
Also I am currently running 3.5.4, I will be going to 3.6 when it goes gold. So do you think it would be best to revert to master after I unistall of my current hacks and then upgrade to 3.6 ?

If you upgrade to 3.6, your master template will be automaticly replaced. Just don't forget to uninstall bbcodemanager 1.1 before to update to 3.6.
If you load again your mastertemplate with the same vB version than the one you're using, it won't mess with any of your other hacks. Any modified templates will stay modified. Again, sorry for this.
Does someone test my new xml file above ? I prefere to be sure it works (for me it does) before to do another new update
Edit : i've just modified the archive to include in it the new xml file above. I will wait for your feedback before to report the modification.
