Mood Hack

Mood Hack

Note: Please update to the latest version, many bugs were fixed.

This if my first hack. Since this is my first hack i don't know how good i'll be at support, but i'll give it a shot.


What does it do?

This hack displays a user's mood in the postbit. The mood is displayed as an image and there are 40 to choose from. Mood can be changed in UserCP=>Edit Profile.

Note: Tested on vBulletin 3.0.5 with security fixes to 3.0.7
It should work in all 3.0.x versions though.

Credits:

This hack is based off "Image Gender in Postbit" written by tnguy3n.

Full credit is given in the text file. I have modified his code to work with this hack.

Update!tnguy3n has pm'd me saying that the modification is ok. Yay

The creation of this hack was inspired by the request of caliman

looks good, but wouldn't this by an easier way??

[|Jordan|]

Well yea but i didn't know how to do that. Also that changes avatars, this just adds a new image and doesnt touch the avatar.

It doesn't need to touch the avatar...if you just create a new profile field, with the values you need, like sad, happy etc...and name the images sad.gif, happy.gif etc, this condition

PHP Code:

<if condition="$post[field28]">
<img src="images/mood/$post[field28].gif" alt="$post[field28]">
</if> 


results in images/mood/sad.gif or images/mood/happy.gif on whatever you choose...correct me if I'm wrong...

The one that the guy in that thread was requesting was to change the avatar based on mood.

[kall]

Well...the *thread* was, that post was not.

The post linked to describes how to achieve exactly what your Hack does, without the need to change any files, just a User Profile Field and a Template modifciation.

It also uses no queries whatsoever.

thank you for this hack, and cheer, I like much

Another slight thing I noticed- if nobody selects a mood their postbit is unchanged, however once you select a mood there is no way to deselect having the mood appear in the postbit. It would be nice if you could have the option to choose "do not display my mood" and the postbit would not say "current mood:" etc..

Simply go to the top of the list "Tell people about your current mood." .. select nothing and mood in postbit does not appear
