Miscellaneous Hacks - [DBTech] Forum Live Feed & User Wall v1 (vB4) [AJAX]

Forum Live Feed & User Wall lets you see a continuously updated feed of activities on the forum, with a powerful set of customisation options for sources of information.

Uses
If you've wished for a Facebook-like feed for your forum, this mod is for you.

This mod adds 2 distinct features to your site. First a live feed showing actions performed by everyone on the forum, from new threads and posts to things like new avatars or signatures, your members can customise their feed and keep up to date with everything that's going on, right as it happens.
Secondly every user also has their own wall that displays what they have been up to. This lets users see what their friends have been doing and join in!
With advanced privacy configuration options and configurable preview options for each content type, this mod compliments other modifications like InfoPanels and produces a more detailed and verbose feed of the happenings on the forum.

My DBtech wall block color is not matching the color of the other blocks, how do I change this to look uniform?

[DragonByte Tech]

Can you please try changing the template dbtech_livewall_block_entries to this:

<li>
	<div class="block smaller">
		<div class="blocksubhead">
			<a class="collapse" id="collapse_block_dbtech_livewall_entries_{vb:raw blockinfo.blockid}" href="{vb:raw relpath}#top"><img alt="" src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_button}/collapse_40b.png" id="collapseimg_dbtech_livewall_entries_{vb:raw blockinfo.blockid}"/></a>
			<img src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_cms}/widget-blog.png" alt="" />
			<span class="blocktitle">{vb:raw blockinfo.title}</span>
		</div>
		<div class="widget_content blockbody floatcontainer">
			<vb:if condition="$vboptions['dbtech_livewall_status_maxlength']">
			<div class="blockrow smallfont">
				<input type="text" class="primary textbox" name="livewall_textfield" data-command="status" data-contenttypeid="{vb:raw entry.contenttypeid}" data-contentid="{vb:raw entry.contentid}" style="width:95%" />
				<br />
				<div style="margin-top:6px;"><input type="button" class="button" name="livewall_submit" data-command="status" data-contenttypeid="{vb:raw entry.contenttypeid}" data-contentid="{vb:raw entry.contentid}" value="{vb:rawphrase dbtech_livewall_post_status}" /> <span class="dbtech_livewall_smallfont">[<span name="livewall_remainingchars" data-command="status" data-contenttypeid="{vb:raw entry.contenttypeid}" data-contentid="{vb:raw entry.contentid}">{vb:var vboptions.dbtech_livewall_status_maxlength}</span>]</span></div>
			</div>
			</vb:if>
			<ul id="block_dbtech_livewall_entries_{vb:raw blockinfo.blockid}" class="blockrow" name="livewall">
				{vb:raw entries}
			</ul>
		</div>
	</div>
	<div class="underblock"></div>
</li>

If that works for you, I will ensure it gets added to the product in the next version
