vBindex

Latest Version: 1.3

This hack is not very special for me. I just wanted to create a mainpage on which you can see.. (as a member) everything what u like to see. The idea of the script is similar to the vbHome of nakkid and also a little bit to the vBPortal. I tested all of them.. but i was looking for something better . so i decided to write such a script myself...

Features:

• Active threads & newest posts
• News & Polls (read from a newsforum and a pollforum)
• Quick CP Links on the index-site
• Buddies on the index-site
• Very easy to customize. Just edit the templates!
• Available in english and german!

Summary: On this index-site you can see everything what you as a member would like to see .

Demo-Sites:

• http://partylife.ch [German Version]
• http://www.kampfkunst-info.de.vu [German Version]
• http://www.ukwinternet.co.uk/forum/home.php [English Version]

Thanx
Yes it the news icon0.gif I have copied the icon0.gif in the icon dir but still not working.
it shows up like this:

(brokenimage).gif" border="0"> NEWS (title)

Into which directory have you put icon0.gif into? It should be in { imagesfolder }/icons/ where { imagesfolder } is the directory where your images are, like the user cp, member list buttons etc are.

If your using the defualt template this will be forumurl/images (forumurl is the url to your forum directory)

If you don't know where { imagesfolder } is:

In the Admin CP, click styles, Modify, select fonts colours ect for the style you are using.

Find the Image Path section and the image folder path that is entered in the textbox there will point you to your { imagesfolder }

Let me know if this works or not.

hmm...still not working

I have copied it the right place in the icon dir.

forums/images/icons/

this is from the vbindex.php

PHP Code:

 if ($news[iconid]!=0) { $icon="<img src=\"{imagesfolder}/icons/icon$news[iconid].gif\" border=0>"; } else { $icon=""; } 


thanx

[NTLDR]

Just tried what I posted in this message and it wasn't the solution!

[NTLDR]

OK, here's the Fix:

Change:

PHP Code:

if ($news[iconid]!=0) { $icon="<img src=\"{imagesfolder}/icons/icon$news[iconid].gif\" border=0>"; } else { $icon=""; } 


To:

PHP Code:

 if ($news[iconid]!=0) { $icon="$news[iconid]"; } else { $icon=""; } 


And your icons should appear and no icon will apear if one isn't selected in the post.

Can you update the zip with this fix el3m3nt?

Let me know to make sure this works for you -=dm=-

I have this all setup and am very impressed, However i have got one suggestion.

In the threads template it currently displays ALL new posts even ones in private forums for guests. Is there anyway that this can be changed to just reflect normal posts?

Also any html that is working in the post (say news post) will not come through onto vbindex
