Please help? :nervous:

I inserted this bit of code into my FORUMHOME template to make the conditional message for 0 post users:

PHP Code:


			
<if condition="$show['guest']">

    <!-- guest welcome message -->

    <tr>

        <td class="tcat" colspan="<if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']">6<else />5</if>"><phrase 1="$vboptions[bbtitle]">$vbphrase[welcome_to_the_x]</phrase></td>

    </tr>

    <tr>

        <td class="alt1" colspan="<if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']">6<else />5</if>">

            <phrase 1="faq.php?$session[sessionurl]" 2="register.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[first_visit_message]</phrase>

        </td>

    </tr>

    <!-- / guest welcome message -->

    </if>

<if condition="$bbuserinfo[posts]<1 && !$show['guest'] && !is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 3)">

<br />

<!-- ############## NEVER POSTED MESSAGE ##############  -->

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">

<tbody>

  <tr>

   <td class="alt1" align="left"><p style="color: red;">

   Hello $bbuserinfo[username],<br>Why not make your first post today by saying hello to the crew in our <a href="http://www.zookpower.ca/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=1">Welcome to Zookpower</a> forum!

   </p></td>

  </tr>

</tbody>

</table>

<!-- ############## END NEVER POSTED MESSAGE ##############  -->

</if>

All the other pages look fine, (I'm using vb 3.0.1 with default vb 2.3.1 style), except the page that the 0 post user sees is showing in a completely different format. I've tried to edit the code for the 0 post to match the style for regular guest welcome, but then i get an error message and have to revert the template back to original.

Thanks!

Its because youve inserted a whole table inside of a table with out the proper tags.

try this

HTML Code:

<if condition="$show['guest']"> 
    <!-- guest welcome message --> 
    <tr> 
        <td class="tcat" colspan="<if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']">6<else />5</if>"><phrase 1="$vboptions[bbtitle]">$vbphrase[welcome_to_the_x]</phrase></td> 
    </tr> 
    <tr> 
        <td class="alt1" colspan="<if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']">6<else />5</if>"> 
            <phrase 1="faq.php?$session[sessionurl]" 2="register.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[first_visit_message]</phrase> 
        </td> 
    </tr> 
    <!-- / guest welcome message --> 
    </if> 
<if condition="$bbuserinfo[posts]<1 && !$show['guest'] && !is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 3)"> 
<br /> 
<!-- ############## NEVER POSTED MESSAGE ##############  --> 
  <tr> 
   <td class="alt1" align="left"><p style="color: red;"> 
   Hello $bbuserinfo[username],<br>Why not make your first post today by saying hello to the crew in our <a href="http://www.zookpower.ca/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=1">Welcome to Zookpower</a> forum! 
   </p></td> 
  </tr> 
<!-- ############## END NEVER POSTED MESSAGE ##############  --> 
</if>

Great, Zachary!

The forum listing are now in the correct format, but now I've got the 0 post message showing in a vertical column on the left side. I tried changing alignment from left to center, but got a nicely centered column. Any ideas for that? I know it's probably basic, but I'm still a php newbie punk and it scares the #%@% out of me.

btw.. Thanks for the help, Zachary. Your messages here and on other boards are very helpful.

Try that i missed a bit of code

Okay, it's looking better but still chopped off and now the forums list is skewed again. Is this caused by using vB 2 default style with vb 3? Or do I have the tables inserted wrong? I'm adding the header bit with it, perhaps they aren't working together properly.

PHP Code:


			
$stylevar[htmldoctype]

<html dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]">

<head>

    <!-- no cache headers -->

    <meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache" />

    <meta http-equiv="Expires" content="-1" />

    <meta http-equiv="Cache-Control" content="no-cache" />

    <!-- end no cache headers -->

    <title><phrase 1="$vboptions[bbtitle]">$vbphrase[x_powered_by_vbulletin]</phrase></title>

    $headinclude

</head>

<body>

$header

$navbar



<!-- main -->

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">

<thead>

        <if condition="$show['guest']"> 

    <!-- guest welcome message --> 

    <tr> 

        <td class="tcat" colspan="<if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']">6<else />5</if>"><phrase 1="$vboptions[bbtitle]">$vbphrase[welcome_to_the_x]</phrase></td> 

    </tr> 

    <tr> 

        <td class="alt1" colspan="<if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']">6<else />5</if>"> 

            <phrase 1="faq.php?$session[sessionurl]" 2="register.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[first_visit_message]</phrase> 

        </td> 

    </tr> 

    <!-- / guest welcome message --> 

    </if> 

<if condition="$bbuserinfo[posts]<1 && !$show['guest'] && !is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 3)"> 

<!-- ############## NEVER POSTED MESSAGE ##############  --> 

  <tr> 

   <td width="100%" class="alt1" align="left"><p style="color: red;"> 

   Hello $bbuserinfo[username],<br>Why not make your first post today by saying hello to the crew in our <a href="http://www.zookpower.ca/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=1">Welcome to Zookpower</a> forum!

here i moved it up above the welcome message as its problem the easiest solution

HTML Code:

$stylevar[htmldoctype] 
<html dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]"> 
<head> 
    <!-- no cache headers --> 
    <meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache" /> 
    <meta http-equiv="Expires" content="-1" /> 
    <meta http-equiv="Cache-Control" content="no-cache" /> 
    <!-- end no cache headers --> 
    <title><phrase 1="$vboptions[bbtitle]">$vbphrase[x_powered_by_vbulletin]</phrase></title> 
    $headinclude 
</head> 
<body> 
$header 
$navbar 


<!-- ############## NEVER POSTED MESSAGE ##############  --> 
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center"> 
  <tr> 
   <td class="alt1" align="left"><p style="color: red;"> 
   Hello $bbuserinfo[username],<br>Why not make your first post today by saying hello to the crew in our <a href="http://www.zookpower.ca/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=1">Welcome to Zookpower</a> forum! 
   </p></td> 
  </tr> 
</table> 
<!-- ############## END NEVER POSTED MESSAGE ##############  -->

<br /> 
<!-- main --> 
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">

        <if condition="$show['guest']">

    </tr> 
    <tr> 
        <td class="alt1" colspan="<if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']">6<else />5</if>"> 
            <phrase 1="faq.php?$session[sessionurl]" 2="register.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[first_visit_message]</phrase> 
        </td> 
    </tr> 
    <!-- / guest welcome message --> 
    </if>

Perfect! I added in the:

PHP Code:


			
<if condition="$bbuserinfo[posts]<1 && !$show['guest'] && !is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 3)">

surrounding the never posted message, and it's mint.

Thanks Zachery, you rock.
