Nicer Greeting On NavBar

Ok i can't take too much credit for it, the original concept was by omgli3k back on the vb3 days i think and even then back at RC stages anyway as a thank you check out his site http://empathogen.net/

Onto the hack, this hack changes the greeting and it's all done automatically and sweetly. it takes your users timezone and gives a greeting dependant on that: "Good Morning, $username.", "Good Afternoon. $username." or "Good Evening, $username.".

shweet huh lol

ok without further ado here you go.

upload as a product.

Thanks again to omgli3k for leading the way on this one

It sounds like it is working, but is off by an hour or two. We need to find out where the hour offset is coming from.

But that's a normal vB function, build in.
I copy that indication from the bottom of my forum.

Hi Amy - I used your code for this and whilst it works just fine - it seems to have affected the "You last visited" function on the line below the welcome - in other words the time of my last login only increments if I log out and back in again.

If I stay logged in - the time doesn't change, even though I might have been back and forth several times.

Any ideas?

Thanks - Mike

This is a great hack! Thanks a lot for the great work. I had to use Amy's version, because it would say "Good Morning" at all times. I've added in a "Good Night" one for 12am-6am, if anyone's interested.

It's attached below.

(dunno what's different with that xml file o_0)

Have you tried Amy's version of the product to see if that fixes it - since her's uses a different approach than mine?

thank you Amy, applied your update as well and it works great now.
