Miscellaneous Hacks - Better Postbit Template

What does this do? Well it will fix that annoying lopsided postbit right template area and make it nice and neat!

First:
You will need to add a CSS variable in the additional CSS Definitons area in Styles - All Style Options - Scroll Down

Add this definition:

PHP Code:

.postbittop {
background-color:#FFFFFF;
color: #000000;
padding:7px 7px 7px 7px;
border: 1px dotted #E0E0E0;
width: 292px;
} 


Note these settings can be changed and adjusted to suit your needs

Next:
Find

PHP Code:

<td width="100%">&nbsp;</td>
            <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> 


Directly Underneath Add

PHP Code:

<div class="smallfont">
                <div class="postbittop" align="right"> 


The align="right" will align your text inside the box. So change this accordingly.

It's heavily modified Ill try and put a write up together. I am in the middle of redoing my site.

By doing this, does it add that "Mashimaro is testing Edit" status part as well ? Or is that seperate somewhere else ?

That's part of a different modification that adds Status Updates. I believe it's the FaceBook Status mod.

ohh ok, thanks.

I thought it used the vbulletin "who is online" parameters....like the part where it tells what each person is doing at the moment. "Jack is viewing so-and-so thread".

That would be really cool to have up there...Have you seen any mod that has it ? I think it would be really popular.

We'd have to configure usergroup permissions for it too.

You should be able to find it by doing a Title's Only search. Probably FaceBook or Online Status.

I cant find one out there..

It would probably be very popular if some Coder made the mod. It looks very convenient up there in postbit.
