Advanced Info Center Details »» | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Description:
This is a newsheader, welcome header, global announcement, newsticker in one. It contains 2 independent and dynamic area's which contents can differ per usergroup. For example, you can send multiple messages to everyone, and to members only, at the same time. Message types: Guests welcome header Accounts awaiting email confirmation receive a message to check their email. NonMembers receive a message where to apply for membership Members receive messages for members only (?) Everyone receive global public messages Idlers receive a pm to start posting again NonPosters also receive a pm to start posting Unread Pm's: users receive a message when they have unread pm's, if they turned the popup off. All messages, usergroups, on/off switches, and some style variables are manageable via the admin-cp. The 2 biggest text area's you'll be using often are separated from the other options to make things easy on the eyes This mod is style-friendly as it automatically changes with your style and is fully phrased. The looks and feel of the container is adjustable in a template. The messages you want to show support any html and css. The Info Center also runs on custom forum pages, like portals, that aren't in the same forum folder. Installation Time: Uploading various files, like style sheets, installing the product, add 1 word in a template will take about 3minutes. Configuring the settings on on/off switches, usergroups and the text you would like to show can take from 5mins up to what ever you want to make of it. Installation Steps: 1. Upload the files that are located in the upload-folder, within the zip-file, to their respective places: - /forum - - /includes - - - contentslider.css - - - contentslider.js - - - /xml - - - - cpnav_LaCN.xml 2. Install the product using the LaCN_InfoCenter.xml file. 3. Go to your Templates. Find in templates: Navigation / Breadcrumb Templates --> navbar Find this line: Code:
<!-- / nav buttons bar --> Code:
$LaCN_InfoCenter You can choose where ever you'd like to place it, since it will pretty much load in any template. Some alternate locations are: footer and FORUMHOME. 4. Refresh the menu frame in the admin-cp. U'll see a new menu: LaCN, containing the 2 Info Center links. 5. Go to the Info Center Options. The first switch is to turn the whole Info Center on. It's turned off by default. Per set of usergroups you can show a message. But there's only 2 message area's: Code:
______________________________ | | | top area | | _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ | | | | bottom area | |______________________________| (you can use a 0 in the usergroups field to make it show to everyone) The top area is shared amongst different sets of usergroups: - guests (if turned on) - nonactivated accounts (if turned on) - registered accounts, but not seen as members (if turned on) - members (if turned on) A guest will never see the other messages, same for the rest. The bottom area could be used for any group, as second set of messages. For example to everyone, if u set the usergroups to 0 in there. You could turn all switches in the top area off, and it will only show the bottom area. You could also turn that bottom area off, and it will show nothing at all 6. Within a message box, for example for Guests, you can have multiple messages, that will slide behind eachother. This will save space. A message in every box must be within <div class="contentdiv"> and </div> tags. For example: Code:
<div class="contentdiv"> <br />Welcome Guest </div> <div class="contentdiv"> <br />Welcome to our board </div> So even with 1 line you need to add those tags. Remove vBulletins Guest Welcome header: vBulletin comes with a nice guest message already: Quote:
Here's how to remove it: Go to your template: Forum Home Templates --> FORUMHOME Find: Code:
<if condition="$show['guest']"> <!-- guest welcome message --> <table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center"> <tr> <td class="tcat"><phrase 1="$vboptions[bbtitle]">$vbphrase[welcome_to_the_x]</phrase></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="alt1"> <phrase 1="faq.php$session[sessionurl_q]" 2="register.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[first_visit_message]</phrase> </td> </tr> </table> <!-- / guest welcome message --> <br /> </if> Add on: The GMT-mod is being used in this mod, to show the gmt time and date. https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=130818 Demo: http://test.lacnfamily.com Integration with Inferno's vbShout ShoutBox The ShoutBox can be placed into the Info Center.

det ser bra ut, men jag tror det skulle se bättre ut med bara en ruta inte två

Version 1.0 worked simply perfectly...
I'm having issues with version 1.5 though: I'm getting *[]* in the AdminCP. I thought I screwed up, but I also get this on a local clean install. I've just threw away the old files and uploaded the new ones and uninstalled and re-installed the product. Can anyone confirm this? |

Where exactly do u see that ? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If it was in the admincp side menu, it is fixed now.. I noticed I added the wrong includes/xml/cpnav_LaCN.xml file in the zip.. I uploaded a new zip file now, try that one. |

"Thank you for registering, LaCN"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Aight, I took a peek, and saw it... I think it was the bad includes/xml/cpnav_LaCN.xml file. Download the new zip file, and upload the upload/includes/xml/cpnav_LaCN.xml again. That's it. Then refresh your admincp menu frame. That should do the trick |

This might seem like a pretty self explanitory question, but what exactly are "nonmembers"?
Is this referring to groups? I'm not sure what this would apply to. |

So, on our board, when someone registers an account, it doesn't mean he is a member of our clan, but he can just post in the public area's. We have an area where registered users can apply for membership, and if accepted, they're seen as members. The rest are nonmembers (regged accounts with only public access). It can also be used for paid access forums. Once someone paid, he receives a new usergroup, has more access, etc.. Or you can choose to show that InfoCenter bit to mods and admins. In that case, just put the usergroups 6,5,7 as "members".. It was just a name for the field I had to give It's optional to use that field |

I said it would be better, well i would pefer it, if it only had one box instead of the top and bottom. Is it possible to do this without me having to edit any code? I can edit it, but i cannot be bothered as you most likely used plugins and they are a pain int eh butt to mod :| |
