User info collapsable table on left side of postbit_legacy · **Released**: 08-05-2004

******* User info collapse on postbit_legacy v.9 **********

I had a number of users complaining about how much "white space" there was on posts where the person had only entered 1 line of text because of the size of the user information below the username on the left hand side.

This hack puts the user information (online/offline status, location, post count, join date, etc) in the postbit_legacy template (only works if you are using the legacy postbit) into a collapsable table like many of the other collapsable tables in vB3. Users can collapse/expand this information at will while viewing a thread and the status is saved in the cookie.

This is the very first javascript code I've ever written so go easy on me

.

Please click on install if you use this hack!

I may install this when I feel like making some edits to the hack. I have added so much to my postbit legacy that I would have to add them all...

You can change to the legacy postbit (vertical columns like on this site rather than the newer horizontal style) by going to vBulletin options and then "style & language settings) - it's the last option there.

Okay, installed this and it looks good, however, I am experiencing a small problem. Whenever you click on the small arrow to collapse the user info, all it does is take you to the top of the page and the user info stays open. Here is a link to one of my posts there so you can see for yourself: http://www.gothicgaming.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3

Doing a hard refresh of your browser CTRL-F5 should do the trick.

It's giving an error on the page. My guess would be that you made a mistake installing the hack somewhere. If you email me your clientscript/vbulletin_global.js and includes/functions_showthread.php to (removed) I'll take a look at them for you.
