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 seems sabe has made a typo

Try replacing that variable that christianb reported and see if that may fix your error - As for a call to an undefined function, not sure how that could be corrected :ermm:

$ng_hour = date('G');
$ng_now = bcadd($ng_hour, $ng_serveroffset);
$ng_result = bcadd($ng_now, $ng_tz_useroffset); 


in the first line of code: $ng_tz_serveroffset
in the fourth (or fifth depending on if you count the blank line): $ng_serveroffset

big typo, that's that's giving evryone problems, oops. i'll upload a fixed version.

not sure why that'd happen, it works across several directories on my localhost, though it's untested above the forums directory.

Thank you for your fast reply. I will have a look at the vBa templates later tonight, maybe I can find the variable to replace there.

If I get a chance this morning, I may break the code and see what I can do.

PHP Code:

<phrase name="ng_goodevening"><![CDATA[Good Evening,]]></phrase> 


Should have a space after Evening,

PHP Code:

<phrase name="ng_goodevening"><![CDATA[Good Evening, ]]></phrase> 


Also, would something like this work?

PHP Code:

if ($ng_result < 18){
    if ($ng_result < 12) {
        $ng_greeting = "<strong>" . $vbphrase[ng_goodmorning] . " " . $vbulletin->userinfo[username] . ".</strong>";
    }
    else {
        $ng_greeting = "<strong>" . $vbphrase[ng_goodafternoon] . " " . $vbulletin->userinfo[username] . ".</strong>";
    }
else {
    $ng_greeting = "<strong>" . $vbphrase[ng_goodevening] . " " . $vbulletin->userinfo[username] . ".</strong>";
} 


I just woke up about 30 mins ago, so please bare with me :P
