Signature Image Management System (file based)
Updated: 27 June 2002, 12:22 AM BST
This hack allows users to upload a image or images that they can then use as part of the thier signature. All uploaded images are private to the user that uploaded them.
The hack requires that you have PHP 4.1.0 or newer for the upload functions to work correctly. PHP 4.0.6 can be used with modifications (not recommended).
The scripts can if enabled also prevent users from externally linking to the images they uploaded, please note this is done by HTTP_REFERER checking not all http servers or browsers support this however is more widely supported than Apache's mod_rewrite. Should you wish to stop deep linking then upload a image called badcontent.gif to your forums directory.
Further more instructions are provided in how to get this hack to work if you are using vBulletin's standard sig editor or a advanced sig editor hack.

This modification may not be copied, reproduced or published elsewhere without author's permission.
As with the first fragment don't copy, paste as vB will add additional spaces that prevent it from working.
You'll notice that the readme states the block begining "/(\[)(php)(])(\r\n)*(.*)(\[\/php\])/esiU",
needs to be modified not the block begining "/(\[)(code)(])(\r\n)*(.*)(\[\/code\])/siU",
which you modified.
Originally posted by BlueVoltage ok now i just get this error:
The contents of line 442 are?
In fact this hack should not have required modification to anything in the region of that line inside sessions.php
Lines 5 to 20 are the only lines that need modification.
Originally posted by Mist what do u mean by the default sig editor and the advanced sig editor???
im confused
- miSt
default sig editor == VBulletin provided "editor"
advanced sig editor == any one of the four or so hacks that make sig editing like writing posts, e.g. advanced.
im confused... i have the hl_signature hack by NanoEntity installed wich gives a preview pane and does sig limits - but is that an advanced sig editor?

Not aware of that hack and a search on here didn't turn up anything?
Compatible hacks are:-
- "Upgraded Signature-Editor w/ Preview" (re-release vb2)
- "Upgraded Signature-Editor w/ Preview" (original release vb2)
- "signature-editor with preview" (re-release release vb2)
- "signature-editor with preview" (orginal release vb2)
- Original hack by AA (vb1, no longer listed on here)
Only editing hacks orginally released before this hack (sept 2001) are currently compatible. As those four all provide everything a (vb2) sig editor needs I'm not inclined to add support for any additional editors.
