To upgrade:
Import product XML, allow overwrite.

What do you mean by -Note: You must revert product templates after upgrade

dangerin · #**704** 02-24-2010, 04:43 PM

it means that is written ! :-P
you must revert the templates that you have modifice after do yu have updated the version ?
in the template manager you have the option revert and you must click here end after redo the modify that you have done on that template..
i suggest to you to take note of mod applied before to update and after you must pats the codes in teh templates reverted

Really love the mod, but have been having trouble with the default color. I've noticed that this always seems to come up FALSE on my boards (4.0.2 PL1):

Code:

if (vB_Template_Runtime::fetchStyleVar('body_color'))
				{
					$vsacb_colorfirstp = vB_Template_Runtime::fetchStyleVar('body_color');
				}
				else
				{
					$vsacb_color_acplist = explode(",",str_replace(" ","",$vbulletin->options['vsachatbox_textcolors']));
					$vsacb_colorfirstp = $vsacb_color_acplist[0];
				}

So the first color in the ACP list is always doubled. I set $vsacb_colorfirstp to '#00FF00' on the ELSE statement just to test and it came up green.

Thanks

:quick edit:

$vsacb_colorfirstp = vB_Template_Runtime::fetchStyleVar('body_color');

Does seem to work. Tried adding that to the ELSE as well and now it's the right color, so I guess it just doesn't like being the condition.

Try changing Plugin: VSa - ChatBox - IL from "Global_Start" to "Process_Templates_Complete"

Doing this, completely breaks my chatbox and makes it display the default "smilies" page. vb 4.02

Hippy · #**709** 02-24-2010, 07:15 PM

looks great Valter .. thanks for your hard work 2 thumbs up

GafferSports · #**710** 02-24-2010, 07:26 PM

No help in removing the usergroup colours in each shout?

SteveV · #**711** 02-24-2010, 07:41 PM

Maybe i missed it but as admin i can not see the time before a message but registered and unregistered see the correct time.
I use %d-%m and %R but if i change it to default d-m and H:i then i am the only one that can see the correct time.
