Stars v0.2.3

Thanks to Bane there has been a complete reworking of the installation/instructions for this hack. It is now up to date for 2.0.3 and the installer runs exactly like the vB install/upgrade scripts do.

There is no demo as I don't currently use stars on my board.

For version: 2.0.3

Files needed: stars.php

Files to edit: newthread.php, newreply.php, admin/misc.php, admin/index.php, admin/usergroup.php, register.php and possibly stars.php

Templates to edit: postbit

Instructions: Upload install_starshack.php and stars.php to your admin directory. Go to example.com/admin/install_starshack.php and login, then follow the on-screen instructions.

Upgrade information: If you have previously installed the stars hack, make sure you choose the "upgrade" option on the screen mentioned in the instructions. If you have previously installed this version (using install_starshack.php), you MUST STILL use the upgrade option even if you are reinstalling or you will get database errors.

Please DO NOT contact me via AIM, ICQ, PM, or email about this hack. Post your question/problem here and I will try to help you.

Feedback appreciated.

Thanx man,

I hope this works

Hi tubedogg,

what does this mean:

****In the postbit _template_****
**Find
<smallfont>$post[usertitle]</smallfont><br>
**Replace it with
<smallfont>$post[usertitle]</smallfont><br>$post[stars]<br>

I have not any file which is called postbit. Can you say me where to find this file (admin?). There is only a file which is called template.php in the admin directory.

[freehtml]

I can't find the code in my register.php

$DB_site->query("INSERT INTO user (userid,username,password,email,".$newstylefield."parentemail,coppauser,homepage,icq,aim,yahoo,signature,adminemail,showemail,invisible,usertitle,joindate,cookieuser,daysprune,lastvisit,lastactivity,usergroupid,timezoneoffset,emailnotification,receivepm,emailonpm,showsignatures,birthday,maxposts,startofweek,ipaddress,pmpopup,referrerid,nosessionhash)

can its too long to post the register.php over here

Go to your CP > Templates > Edit > Default > Postbit Templates > Postbit

Then modify as the code above..

thanx freehtml

Hi freehtml,

I have no problems to change the code in my register.php. Which Version do you have?

Hi,

I changed everything successful but when I try to edit the stars for the user groups I have this error:

Can you view the source of the error page and copy and paste it here? Or copy and paste the email you should have received?

I can't get this thing to post the code directly, so download the attached file and make the changes noted in it and let me know if that helps.

Could you make it so that different levels can have different color stars instead of all of them having the same color stars and all that changes is the number?

This is already possible...change the "Star Image" for each level. You cannot make one level have 5 different color stars, but each level can have a different color star.

Also you could create one image that had multiple different color stars, and assign that image to be displayed once for a certain level - wallah, a bunch of different color stars for one level.

Hi tubedogg,

great job man! Everything works fine now! Thanx.
