OK - where you have

/home/public_html/sig/sig.jpg

it should be

/home/blamina/public_html/sig/sig.jpg

- that shouild solve it...

/me clicks install

:banana:

[Quelyn]

Ok...

// ######################### CHANGE FONT BELOW ############################
// Uncomment LINE1+LINE12 and comment LINE2+LINE22 to use default font.
// Replace "verdana.ttf" with the URL to your .ttf font
//
//imagestring($img, $fontsize, $left, (($i * $zeilenabstand) - $zeilenabstand + $top), $output, $text_color);  // LINE1
imagettftext($img, $fontsize, 0, $left, (($i * $zeilenabstand) - $zeilenabstand + $top), $text_color,"/home/artfag/public_html/tahoma.ttf", $output); // LINE2
$i++;
}

What have I done wrong. because, I get this error:
Warning: imagettftext(): Could not read font in /home/artfag/public_html/forums/signature.php on line 238

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/artfag/public_html/forums/signature.php:238) in /home/artfag/public_html/forums/signature.php on line 242

Then a crapload of gibberish.

If I uncomment line one, and comment line 2, I get the image to show up with no text on it. I can't figure out what yyou mean by line 12 and line 22. Because that makes no sense to me.

See it shows up but with no text on the image. I really don't want to use the default font, but as per my post above the other way just doesn't want to work.

Sorry it's a bit unclear. This is what it should read:

Uncomment LINE1 and comment LINE2 to use default font.

If this doesn't work, then you may need to contact your web host to see if they have disabled the functions 'imagestring' and 'imagettftext'.

How do I move the text around?

Theres two variables at the top of the script called $top and $left, you must edit those to mode the text around.

[Blam Forumz]

Could ya give me some sort of guide please,? im not exactly sure how to move them

[oldfan]

//Width of banner image
$width = yoursize;

//Height of banner image
$height = yoursize

//Left text-margin
$left = 296;

//text-margin from top
$top = 30;

//Font Size
$fontsize = 10;

//Line-spacing of text
$zeilenabstand = 0;

[oldfan]

and this will make your text appear one ontop of each other

$output = " Members: $numbermembers\n\r Threads: $totalthreads\n\r Posts: $totalposts\n\r Online: $totalonline";


like this

[Natch]

To be perfectly frank, there is a better way for the text to appear one on top of the next ...

$output[] = "Members: $numbermembers";
$output[] = "Threads: $totalthreads";
$output[] = "Posts: $totalposts";
$output[] = "Online: $totalonline";

This works as the original script did - walks thru an array of lines for output...

[oldfan]

thanks, I'll try that

I have a small problem when running it as a vb-cronjob.
The member-count is displayed but threads and post are completly empty.

When i run it "manually" it will generate a correct image... even if i press the "Run now" button in cronjob it will generate it correctly

Could it be that when running as a vb-cronjob it sometimes doesnt have the time to run the complete code because a user aborts the page-load. (If im not misstaken cronjobs are runned when a user access a vb-page and there is a scheduled task that needs to be run)

Would it maybe be solved if you added ignore_user_abort(true) and (false) at the beginning and end of he script?

[Natch]

This issue occurs for some but not others - I'm wondering if it could be related to a permissions issue - maybe the guest (the cron job) doesn't have permissions to access those tallies...
