Information Bar for Guests · **Version:** 3.0.10

Information Bar for Guests (for version 3.5.0)

What is this?
This will display an information bar across the top of the browser window that appears to be like the Information Bar that is from Windows XP SP2. When the user clicks it they will be sent to the registration page for your forums. This is not a popup.

If the user is logged in then this will not display at all. This only appears on the page for people who are not logged in.

ok cool. i'm glad you guys all like this. i've noticed an increase in memberships from this. i have 21 referrals now. it's not alot, but my board isn't all that popular yet.

This is working great! I've had 6 signups in 2 days! My forum ins't very active right now because it's about the NFL, which is out of season right now. Now I just need to figure out why all the new signups are still in the "Awating Email Confirmation" group.
One quick question, where would I check to see who referred the new signups? I left the referrid=1 in the code.

Thanks

look at your profile. user 1 is the admin.

if you have email confirmation on then they will be in that group until they confirm their email address. after they do, they will be placed in the registered users group.

Caveman2k2 · #**125** 03-22-2005, 04:51 PM

Well, it shows Referrals 0 in my profile. Maybe it's because they haven't confirmed yet. I'll keep an eye on it. Thanks for the info.

Slapyo · #**126** 03-22-2005, 04:58 PM

hrm, ya i don't know how that works. whether the referral is give immediately regardless of email confirmation or if you get the referral afterwards.

Caveman2k2 · #**127** 03-22-2005, 05:13 PM

Bsed on what I see, I'm assuming (and we know how that works, LOL) that it doesn't record the referral until after they've confirmed.

just curious if anyone could test this with safari and/or netscape. i don't have either and am not sure if either has been updated since i released the hack.

I don't have safari, but it does work in netscape 7.1, however it wants to play the .wav in mediaplayer for some reason.

Slapyo · #**131** 04-07-2005, 04:49 PM

ah ok cool, maybe safari was updated...didn't work before

hrmm not sure why netscape wants to play the sound in media player. *shrug*

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
