Welcome Panel Template Rewrite · **Released**: 06-11-2006

Introduction:

When I first installed Zero Tolerence's Welcome Panel, I found that it had a lot of mistakes on my computer. I set out to make a new template for the hack - and I succeeded. This template is my rewrite of Zero Tolerence's hack.

No, I didn't mean width-wise, I meant height-wise. Looks rather large-ish, height-wise.

I think it's a nice height wise. For the amount of information there is...

Can someone please tell me how can I remove this line

Code:

? You own 9.4% of the forums posts.

thanks.

King Kovifor · #**105** 03-06-2007, 10:44 PM

That line would be in the wp_userstats phrase. Or the phrase that includes user stats. Just delete it including the {#}. It won't affect it.

OK, So I have it up and working as per you instructions (3.6.5) But the font size is not the same as on my default board. It is larger than everything else. How can I make it the same?

my board is www.physiochat.com

Also looking at zero tolerances original it has some nice bits on it, like the posts in the last 24 hours, where you are most active (forum) which is also fab. Can this be added as an option to yours?

Also I have got this working but my original welcome panel is also there. SHould this be areplacement or do we now have two?

See added screen shot

I'll be able to answer all your questions tonight... and perfphysio - don't forget to click install!

Well, not sure about the font but you could probably work using <small> tags or something. I don't personally have that problem...

About the two welcome panels, check inside the forumhome template category and see if you have two. If you have two, find one that has a [REVERT] next to it and click it. That should remove ZT's template.

PREACHERMAN · #**109** 03-09-2007, 12:31 PM

Ok, where do I hook the original plugin from zt post?

I think that is the problem. I made the template but did not upload the plug in.

PREACHERMAN · #**110** 03-09-2007, 02:34 PM

never mind I got it

perfphysio · #**111** 03-09-2007, 03:37 PM

seems to have code for class="alt1" or class="alt12 in the welcome template. Is this to do with the font?
