VB Version: This actually works on 3.6.0 - 3.6.4


Description:

This Hack will but your vb Forum stats (i.e. No. of Members, Threads and Posts) on your Signature Image. It uses the layout from sig.jpg, calls the stats from your Databank and creates a new images called signature.jpg

This hack uses the PHP-GD Function, so be shure you have this enabled on your server. If you don?t be shure about this, ask your host or look in your PHP-Info.

Installation Instructions:

1. Open signature.php in a text editor and set the variables at top according to your requirements (These are settings for stats text placement and with and height of signature image)
2. Upload signature.php to your /includes/cron/ dir
3. Open sig.jpg in your favourite Graphics Programm and make a real cool Signature image
4. Save it with the same name and upload it and a blank one named signature.jpg to your forum directory (CHMOD 777 on both)
5. Install the plugin and wait 10 mins (or run the scheduled task "Update Sig Stats")

I can't get it to display anything but Members, Threads, & Posts even though I uncommented the online user(s) out.

You wouln't mind sharing what you did would ya?

[Mr Chad]

well you need to add the Vars in the text:

PHP Code:

$text = "Members: $usercount\nThreads: $threadcount\nPosts: $postcount\n"; 


thats the standard line. add the ones you want in there.

greets Termi

you need to CHMOD the images 777

[Termi]

hy,

thanks for helping

but the images have 777

that is signature.php

$width = 620;//Width of banner image
$height = 90;//Height of banner image
$left = 153; //Left text-margin
$top = 8; //text-margin from top
$linespacing = 15; //Line-spacing of text
$blanksig = DIR . "/home/www/doc/6547/corsa24.de/www/sig.jpg"; //full path to empty signature image (input image)
$finishedsig = DIR . "/home/www/doc/6547/corsa24.de/www/signature.jpg"; //full path to signare image with forum data (output image)
$imcompression = 95; //Compression of output image
$debug = 0; //debug mode

that s right ?

greets Termi

[Mr Chad]

are you running it through the cron? or trying to directly run it?
