Nice hack Steven, we were talking about it on AIM last night, I never got time to check it out here. Looks like it's turned out well. Yet another userCP hack from assassingod .

-Sidekick- ; I knew this would come up. I have not yet found a way round it. And g-force2k2 is absolutly correct. I'll try looking into it more.

N9ne ; Thanks And I have plenty more to come

Maybe some vB guy could pop on this one and help us out. Cause I'd love to use this hack along with the style shown with link in the postbit, but I don't want to confuse message board users with their style settings.

vB by design prefers the styleid cookie over the user cp setting. The only way to fix it is to log out which destroys the cookie. Of course in this hack you can delete the cookie, too, which will do it.

AssassinGod,

I tested this on 2.2.9 and it seems to work fine. So you can go ahead and tick off 2.2.9 also

Curious, how could this be put into the welcome panel (control panel part works

i have it in the welcome panel now - but i have no pull down menu as of yet - i assume that is because i need to put the code i put into usercp.php in another php file?




now, once it is there, any chance that once someone changes the style it will permanently save it like that? i think this was the case with another style selector hack, is it possible with yours?

thnx.

[Mathiau]

okay - i put

$stylesetlist = "";
  if ($allowchangestyles==1) {
    $stylesets=$DB_site->query("SELECT * FROM style WHERE userselect=1 ORDER BY title");
    if ( !isset($bbuserinfo['realstyleid']) ) {
      $bbuserinfo['realstyleid'] = $bbuserinfo['styleid'];
    }
    while($thisset=$DB_site->fetch_array($stylesets)) {
      if ($bbuserinfo['realstyleid']==$thisset['styleid']) {
        $selected = "selected";
      } else {
        $selected = "";
      }
      $thisid = $thisset['styleid'];
      $thisstylename = $thisset['title'];
      eval ("\$stylesetlist .= \"".gettemplate("usercp_styleset")."\";");
      eval ("\$stylecell = \"".gettemplate("usercp_stylecell")."\";");
    }
  } else {
    $stylecell = "";
  }

into index.php after

$numbersmembers=$DB_site->query_first('SELECT COUNT(*) AS users,MAX(userid) AS max FROM user');
$numbermembers=number_format($numbersmembers['users']);

it now shows in welcome panel a pull down with currently "defualt " in it


will this be okay where i posted the code ? or is there a better place i could - also, will this, if someon chooses another style - kep that style permanently, or only as long as that session?

[assassingod]

That should work. If it doesnt, I will have a go
