Admin can change default style from admin cp

This is a simple 'mini hack'. I wrote this for myself some time ago so i could change the default style without overwriting styleid 1, or editing global.php multiple times.

This will add a new option in the 'vBulletin options' part of the admin cp.

Querys to run: 1
Files to edit: 1.

uhm hey I am having a problem with this :\

It changed tbe default style fine for members who are logged in. But if you are a guest or logged out, only the forum main page style changes.

Could it have something to do with the issues I mentioned on vbt?

Im not sure what could be doing that.

You might want to think about opening a support ticket.

This isn't working for me. I installed it and no errors, but it doesn't do anything. I have 2 styles. One called default and one called Empire I created. So that's 2 including the one that came with the forum. I tried setting style ID to 1-2-3-4-5-6.dsfpiaq3poias-e0fm alot of them lol! And nothing ever happens as should. I expected for when a new visitor who visits the board will have the style set as Empire not default. And... it doesn't I don't understand lol! Sorry, maybe it's obvious but it's definately not harming me, or working at that either.

How to find styleid's.


This adds the current style id of a style to the modifiy styles page of the admin cp, makes it easyer on newbies who dont know how to find style id's

To upgrade:

In /admin/style.php find:

PHP Code:

// ###################### Start Modify #######################
if ($action=="modify") {

  doformheader("","");
  maketableheader("Style Sets");
  $styles=$DB_site->query("SELECT styleid,title FROM style ORDER BY title");
  while ($style=$DB_site->fetch_array($styles)) {

    echo "<tr class='".getrowbg()."'>\n<td><p>$style[title]</p></td><td><p>".
            makelinkcode("fonts/colors/etc","style.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=styles&dostyleid=$style[styleid]").
            makelinkcode("properties","style.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=edit&editstyleid=$style[styleid]",0,"edit style properties").
            makelinkcode("download","style.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=dodownload&styleid=$style[styleid]").
            iif($style[styleid]!=1,makelinkcode("remove","style.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=remove&styleid=$style[styleid]"),"").
            "</p></td></tr>\n";

  }

  echo "</table></td></tr></table>";

} 


Replace by:

PHP Code:

// ###################### Start Modify #######################
if ($action=="modify") {

  doformheader("","");
  maketableheader("Style Sets");
  $styles=$DB_site->query("SELECT styleid,title FROM style ORDER BY title");
  while ($style=$DB_site->fetch_array($styles)) {

    echo "<tr class='".getrowbg()."'>\n<td><p>$style[title] (style id $style[styleid])</p></td><td><p>".
            makelinkcode("fonts/colors/etc","style.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=styles&dostyleid=$style[styleid]").
            makelinkcode("properties","style.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=edit&editstyleid=$style[styleid]",0,"edit style properties").
            makelinkcode("download","style.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=dodownload&styleid=$style[styleid]").
            iif($style[styleid]!=1,makelinkcode("remove","style.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=remove&styleid=$style[styleid]"),"").
            "</p></td></tr>\n";

  }

  echo "</table></td></tr></table>";

} 


Thats it!

How do you run an SQL Query or rather where do I run the needed SQL query :

INSERT INTO setting (settingid,settinggroupid,title,varname,value,desc ription,optioncode,displayorde r) VALUES (NULL,2,'Default style set.','loo_default_style','1','Set this number to the style id you wish to be displayed by deault (note: This will not overwrite style settings in user profiles!)','','7');

Also, how do I view the global.php file and edit it?
