Add-On Releases - jQt jQuery Suite for vB4

Completely Re-designed modular system, virtually all the code re-written.

Description:
This mod will add jQuery enhancements to various areas of your vBulletin board using the renown jQuery Tools Library.

jQuery Overlays:

• Separate Log-In and Registration Dialogues, Including Human Verify and D.O.B. but NOT required fields.
• OR Log-In / Register Slide-Down
• Log Out Dialogue
• Mark Forums Read Dialogue
• Mini-Stats
• Display Chat/Shout box in slide-down

Tooltips:

• vBAdvanced Recent Threads, including threadstarters avatar.
• Forum Display (threadbits), including threadstarters avatar.(upgraded)
• Postbit / Postbit_legacy, including avatar and post/activity details.
• Forum Home Description
• Search Results page (search_threadbit)

I now use and HIGHLY RECOMMEND TMS (Template Modification System) as it automates the template edits for the default theme and simplifies the edits for custom themes.


This is the first release of this re-designed mod. I have re-written these scripts to be far more compatible with other add-ons, using the <noconflict> method throughout.
I have used a 'modular' environment, meaning that you can select specifically the individual components you want to use. All of the modules are fully configurable from the AdminCP, and many of the style attributes are editable from the templates stylevar dialogue.

UPGRADE: from any previous version to this, v4.0 there is NO UPGRADE PATH, you need to fully remove earlier versions, then follow the instructions for installation. I am very sorry for this inconvenience, but so much has been changed that incorporating upgrading became untenable.

INSTALLATION:
1, Upload all the files/folders in the UPLOAD folder to your forum root.

2, Install the product 'product-jqt_suite-CORE.xml'. This is the only component that is COMPULSORY. This has to be installed for any of the others modules to work!

3, Install any of the other module(s) from the AdminCP, as you would any other product;
jQt Suite Log-In-Register Module
jQt Suite Log-In-Register Slider Module
(you can only use ONE of the above, the first is the overlay)
jQt Suite MarkForumsRead Module
jQt Suite MiniStats Module
jQt Suite Tooltips Module

4, If you have TMS (Template Modification System) installed the template edits have already been done for you.
If not, then manually apply the template edits from the template edit pages found in the Docs folder of the archive.
You only need to apply the template edits for the module(s) that you install.

5, Pop into your AdminCP and configure the product(s)

6, To enable the 'VSa Visitors in Last X Hours' block in the mini-stats you need to have that mod already installed (use the link) then edit the 'VSa - Visitors In Last X Hours' Product thus:
Go to AdminCP/Plugins & Products/Plugin Manager/
and disable the Plugin 'VSa - VILXH - MN'. This transfers the results from the forum home page to the mini-stats block.

TWEAKING TOOLTIP POSITION
For those of you that would like to tweak the position of the tooltips, here is a quote directly from the original jQuery Tools Tooltip documentation describing what the numbers mean.
Edit these positions by opening
/jqt_suite/jqt_suite_black_css.js
/jqt_suite/jqt_suite_minimal_black_css.js
or
/jqt_suite/jqt_suite_white_css.js
and finding the line(s) 'offset: [-44, 90],'

The offset property fine tunes the tooltip position specified with the position property. For example, the value [10, -20] moves the tooltip position 10px downwards and 20px to the left. The first value modifies the vertical positioning from the top edge of the tooltip and the second value modifies the horizontal positioning from the left edge of the tooltip. Positive values move the tooltip downward and to the right, while negative values move the tooltip upward and to the left.

For those that use vBSEO and have some trouble with guests viewing the tooltips, you can turn OFF the vBSEO option "Remove Thread Preview Text For Guest Visitors" to fix it.

All updates/future releases and support are now only available at jqt-suite.co.uk

Is it possible just to add the register part if I already have a twitter style log in?

For those that have the IE9 issue, where the overlay is not centred, please download and unpack the attachment 'jquery.tools.min-all.js.zip' then upload it to your 'jqt_suite' folder, overwriting the original.

Thank you very much for your help that is working great now except very small issue that the login popup windows it opens initially very fine but after it opens it stretches itself to the right side and it looks very elongated. Any Suggestions.

Thanks

Sorry to have been so long in replying.
I have been trying to get the Facebook button working last evening and this morning, without any success at all.
One of the edits I made killed my forums, so that was obviously not quite right
Will persevere and let you know as soon as there is any news.

I have a really odd problem ... I am using a custom style and every time I try to add the "Login/Register" button, my whole navbar is misplaced.


This only occurs when I try to change this code:

<ul class="nouser">
			<vb:if condition="$show['registerbutton']">
				<li><a href="register.php{vb:raw session.sessionurl_q}" rel="nofollow">{vb:rawphrase register}</a></li>
			</vb:if>

to the one provided in the instructions.

            </vb:if>

to the one provided in the instructions.

The only thing I can suggest off the top of my head is to just change the <li> bit thus:
Replace this:

PHP Code:

<li><a href="register.php{vb:raw session.sessionurl_q}" rel="nofollow">{vb:rawphrase register}</a></li> 


With this:

PHP Code:

<li><a href="#" rel="#sheet" id="see">Log In/Register</a></li> 


(this will turn the 'switch' off, but if it does work I'll sort something out)

If that still causes problems then maybe the custom style has an element identifier of 'see', in which case let me know and again, I'll try to sort something out.
Sorry to sound so vague, but it's Sunday night, and I'm kn*cke*ed!

The forgotten password I should have installed from the beginning, my bad. The login with Email I have tried, without much success, but (hopefully) watch this space.

[GamersChallenge]

here is a mod that allows to login with the email, maybe you can integrate to work with this mod?
