vB 4.0.1 Fix
Those of you who performed this mod on 4.0.0 and have upgraded to 4.0.1, all you have to do is revert the header template and perform the edits again. For some reason when the templates were merged with the new code it messed up the links when logged in.
-----------------------------------------------------

Open header template

Find:

PHP Code:

<input type="text" class="textbox default-value" name="vb_login_username" id="navbar_username" size="10" accesskey="u" tabindex="101" value="<vb:if condition="$username">{vb:raw username}<vb:else />{vb:rawphrase username}</vb:if>" onfocus="if (this.value == '<vb:if condition="$username">{vb:raw username}<vb:else />{vb:rawphrase username}</vb:if>'){this.value=''; this.style.color='black';}" onblur="if (this.value == '') {this.value='<vb:if condition="$username">{vb:raw username}<vb:else />{vb:rawphrase username}</vb:if>'; this.style.color='#828282';}"/>
                    <input type="password" class="textbox default-value" name="vb_login_password" id="navbar_password" size="10" tabindex="102" onfocus="this.style.color='black';" />
                    <input type="submit" class="loginbutton" value="{vb:rawphrase log_in}" tabindex="104" title="{vb:rawphrase enter_username_to_login_or_register}" accesskey="s" />
                        </div>
                    </div>
                </fieldset>
                <div id="remember" class="remember">
                    <label for="cb_cookieuser_navbar"><input type="checkbox" name="cookieuser" value="1" tabindex="103" id="cb_cookieuser_navbar" class="cb_cookieuser_navbar" accesskey="c" /> {vb:rawphrase remember_me}</label>
                </div>
            
                <input type="hidden" name="s" value="{vb:raw session.sessionhash}" />
                <input type="hidden" name="securitytoken" value="{vb:raw bbuserinfo.securitytoken}" />
                <input type="hidden" name="do" value="login" />
                <input type="hidden" name="vb_login_md5password" />
                <input type="hidden" name="vb_login_md5password_utf" />
            </form>    
        </vb:if>
    </div> 


Replace With:

PHP Code:

<style type="text/css">
.toplinks form img {
        position:relative;  
        top: 3px;        
} 
</style>

<img src="./images/icons/username.png" alt="Username" />

                    

<input id="navbar_username" class="bginput" type="text" onblur="if (this.value == '') this.value = 'Username';" onfocus="if (this.value == 'Username') this.value = '';" value="Username" tabindex="101" accesskey="u" size="10" name="vb_login_username" style="font-size: 11px;"/>

<img src="./images/icons/password.png" alt="Password" />

                    <input id="navbar_password" class="bginput" type="password" onblur="if (this.value == '') this.value = '';" onfocus="if (this.value == 'Password') this.value = '';" value="Password" tabindex="102" accesskey="u" size="10" name="vb_login_password" style="font-size: 11px;/>


                    

<label for="cb_cookieuser_navbar">
<input id="cb_cookieuser_navbar" type="checkbox" accesskey="c" tabindex="103" value="1" name="cookieuser"/>
</label>
                

                    <input type="submit" class="loginbutton" value="Login" tabindex="104" title="{vb:rawphrase enter_username_to_login_or_register}" accesskey="s" />
                        </div>
                    </div>
                </fieldset>


                
            
                <input type="hidden" name="s" value="{vb:raw session.sessionhash}" />


                <input type="hidden" name="securitytoken" value="{vb:raw bbuserinfo.securitytoken}" />
                <input type="hidden" name="do" value="login" />
                <input type="hidden" name="vb_login_md5password" />
                <input type="hidden" name="vb_login_md5password_utf" />
            </form>    
        </vb:if>
    </div>

I just used this and it works, except I've got a problem with the Facebook Connect from VB, and it raises my header above the rest of the forum when not logged in.



Full size here, since I can't link the image itself for some reason

Sorry, I can't help you with this. I don't use Facebook Connect from vB.

[JasonReynolds]

hmmm the code is not full on VB 4.0.4

[RedHacker]

Not full and the 4.0.5

[tcarr9]

Has anybody figured out how to do this for 4.0.5 yet?

[congthinh]

Thanks!
Installed.

[apokphp]

Using the site's custom header and using 4.0.5. I get this error:

adding child to non-existent node!

But using the changes that were suggested by Alice...works just fine if the default template is used. I just don't use the default style on my site unfortunately.

Anyway, the author hasn't worked on this mod in ages. Either he or vb should mark this mod as being Non-Supported.
