[RE-RELEASE vB2.0] signature-editor with preview

This is just a re-release of a hack by AA. He made this hack for vB 1.x and I made some small changes to make it work with vb 2.x

It adds a signature-editor with preview ability to your vB.

It's very simple. You just have to create a new template (_editsignature) and copy sedit.php to your vB directory. Then add a link to sedit.php in the modifyprofile template. Done.

Install instructions are included.

HELP! Nothing UNDER the signature line will save! (if you try to edit it)
Biography:
Location:
Interests:
Occupation:

None of these will save any added (edited) data!

Hm...on the "Who's online" page in vB 2.0.3 it says " Unknown Location: /forums/sedit.php?&action=show"

How do I fix this?

[DarkReaper]

Fixed.

To make it compatible with online.php, open online.php.

Find:

  default:
    $userinfo[activity] = 'unknown';
  }

BEFORE that, add this:

  case 'sedit.php':
    $userinfo[activity] = 'editsig';
    break;

Then find this:

    default:
      // Let's show the admin the location but put something false up for everyone else..
      if ($bbuserinfo[usergroupid] == 6) {
         $userinfo[location] = htmlspecialchars(stripslashes(replacesession($userinfo[location])));
        $userinfo[where] = "<b>Unknown Location:</b> <a href=\"$userinfo[location]\">$userinfo[location]</a>";
      } else {
        // We were unable to parse the location
        $userinfo[where] = "$bbtitle <a href='index.php?s=$session[sessionhash]'>Main Index</a>";;
      }

BEFORE that, add this:

    case 'editsig':
      $userinfo[where] = "Changing Forum Signature";
      break;

Is no one else having the problem I am having with the Location, Bio, etc NOT SAVING after adding this hack??

[DarkReaper]

Nope. Works fine for me. What version of vB are you using? Make sure you modified the files correctly.

What a great addition! Thank you to all who put effort into this easy-to-install hack!

Hi,

Thanks for your hack, i have question:

can we add template name _editsignature in style file. If yes HOW?

bacause every time i upload new template.style file then i lost the _editsignature session.

Thanks.

[pogo]

Just add

_editsignature|||[templatedata]|||

to the end of your style file where [templatedata] is replaced by the _editsignature content.

how would i limit smilies/images to 4 per sig?

[Neo]

it also seems like it will not display the limited number of lines per sig. i set it and it still does not show up...

the code:
$adminsiglimit = 20;
$regsiglimit = 12;

but when i save and reload there is not number there it just says

Signature Limits
- lines or less
- 10 pictures/smilies or less

so can someone help
