Miscellaneous Hacks - Ultimate Navbar for vB3.7

Ultimate Navbar for vB3.7
Version 1.0.5
(By Boofo and Pam)

What does this product do?
This product will add an ultimate greeting to the navbar set to each member's local time. You can also use the real first name of the member instead of their username if you have a real name profile field added. This will also add a row of links to the top of the navbar. You can also set the 'Remember Me' login checkbox to automatically checked.

Below is a list of times and lines for each greeting.

12:00 am - 1:59 am - Up late, aren't we, Pam?
2:00 am - 3:59 am - Having trouble sleeping, Pam?
4:00 am - 5:29 am - Still can't sleep, Pam?
5:39 am - 6:59 am - Aren't you the early bird, Pam?
7:00 am - 11:59 am - Good Morning, Pam.
12:00 pm - 12:59 pm - Enjoying your lunch break, Pam?
1: 00 pm - 4:59 pm - Good Afternoon, Pam.
5:00 pm - 5:59 pm - What's for dinner, Pam?
6:00 pm - 9:59 pm - Good Evening, Pam.
10:00 pm - 11:59 pm - Shouldn't you be going to bed soon, Pam?

These following are added to run at the specified time only for one minute.

6:15 pm = Got milk, Pam?
11:00 pm = It's 11 o'clock, do you know where your children are, Pam?

Are you running Paul M's Unread Posts and Reputation hack? Is so, the first post has the fix for it at the bottom.

I still can't see my name or any of the text on that line.

Let me attach the file now, there must be a little mistake in there, because I don't have Paul M's hack installed and I've done all of the template modifications.

You need to add back the ung_period phrase for this hack. The link in the navbar can't find it.

[youradhere4222]

Yes, that's what I meant.

Re-read my post above.

[youradhere4222]

I'm sorry, I don't know where to put it.

Could you take the .xml I attached, add it in then re-upload? I have no idea if it's a specific phrase, if there are a number of them, and where they should be.

OK I have looked and looked, but can't find that code in the navbar. Could it be because I have a custom skin?

This is the closest code I found:


<td class="alt2" valign="top" nowrap="nowrap">
<div class="smallfont">
<strong><phrase 1="$bbuserinfo[username]">$vbphrase[welcome_x]</phrase></strong><br />
<if condition="$bbuserinfo['pmunread']">

[Boofo]

This is the part you want to replace:

<strong><phrase 1="$bbuserinfo[username]">$vbphrase[welcome_x]</phrase></strong><br />
