Well, with over 200 downloads and 32 problem free install's, I though it time to take this out of the beta hacks forum (note, there are no changes to the file in the beta forum, so no need to re-download if you already have the hack installed).

I put this together originally as a walkthrough for an admin friend, and thought someone might find it useful. Althouth technically, my contribution is a couple of simple template edits, it does contain hacks posted previously.

Like I said, it's a combination of 2 previously relesed hacks (both credited fully). One by Firefly (avatar hack) and one by MrLister (since your last visit). It combines both of these hacks into a welcome panel at the top of the BB, just like the one here and on a few other sites. I'm pretty much a newbie to vB hacking, and struggled to put this together myself (couldn't find any instructions/hacks etc), but I think I've done an OK job. Maybe this will save a few headaches to others like myself

Anyway, here's a pic to illustrate the hack/edit (or whatever it is

)

You can see a working verion of this hack here:

The Genome Collective

Thanks to Firefly and MrLister for providing the PHP hacks in this err, whatever

(BTW, if this is in the wrong forum, please (mods) feel free to move it)

Happy Christmas everyone.

here it is:

edit: updated version number to 2.2.6 because it works

There are no changes to the files - it's not a new release. Thanks. /edit

Working for me on 2.2.8. Thank you very much

My only question is this: my forum home page now displays a user's private message status at both the top and the bottom of the page. Any way to remove the status at the bottom of the page?

just remove the second "$ pminfo" (without space) in your "forumhome"-template.

Does this add two queries to forumhome?

Great Hack, but how do you remove the Log-in/out thingy from the footer now that it is in the header you don't realy need it do you?

I lost it again

(EDIT) lol

\ \ - Speedy - / / · #**337** 10-09-2002, 09:52 PM

how do you do this?

Great Hack, it's the second one I've installed. The first was Logicians Birthday Greeting. Both work great... However, I've done something wrong, obviously while installing this one. When you scroll down my forum home page and get to the end of the forums list, they repeat. :ermm:

You can see here

Being a real noob, any suggestions would be welcome.

John - You've probably got $forumbits in your forumhome template twice. Check that and if so delete one.

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