BBcode Manager

-Version 1.32-
Works vB 3.6 -vB 3.5 (special xml file inside zip)

*********************************************
By C?dric Claerhout and Calorie


-Description-

This modification allows you to have new looks for quote, code, phg and html bbcodes. The installation is automatic ; the setup is very easy.


-Features-

• Five news looks for bbcodes in order to enhance your messages : Light bbcode set ; Dark bbcode set ; Pastel bbcode set ; Simple bbcode set and Simple bbcode with transparency b/g. Configure this sets according to your styles. If you forget or don't want to specify a set for a style, it will use the defaut vB display.
• GIF or PNG formats available for pictures. Autodetect IE 6 function to use gif extension for this browser. In order to work efficiently the Cached Posts Lifespan must be set to 0 in vB options
• This hack works with vBa CMPS : it uses special templates to avoid to break the front page. The detection is automatic (since 1.31 version).
• You can configure : the left margin of bbcode, the color and the size of text.
• You can set a link to quoted user profile. It creates a clickable link between the person's username being quoted and her profile.
• Mono or double bubbles for simple quote bbcode | special behaviour for quotes of light, dark and pastel sets.

-Installation-

1. Upload "bbcodemanager" pictures directory in vBulletin images directory : /forums/images/
2. Import the product xml file
3. Configure the mod in vBulletin options -> "BBcode templates manager"

-Updates-

-19/08/2006 : version 1.32 released. New option available : integration of Advanced Syntax Highlighting is now possible. Please note that "Code Block Width" must be in pixels (see "important" paragraphe)
-15/08/2006 : version 1.31 released. New vba procedure detection ; it's automatic now. Errors in vBa bbcode templates have been corrected. To upgrade from 1.30, just import product file.
-14/08/2006 : version 1.30 released thanks to Calorie : the installation is now fully automatic ; you just have to upload product file and that's all (no need to edit php file anymore) ; the english translation is also better thanks to Calorie.
-07/08/2006 : version 1.23 released ; new options available : Link to profil, Left margin, Text color and some Special behaviour for quotes of light, dark and pastel sets. Text color problem for some styles corrected. To update, just import xml product file and upload pictures (there are new ones)
-15/07/2006 : version 1.22b released ; link to a picture corrected
-14/07/2006 : version 1.22 released ; code is simpler ; use now $style[styleid] variable instead of $styleid ->allow guests to see the right bbcode set
-12/07/2006 : version 1.21 released ; now you can config several style ids (for real this time)
-12/07/2006 : version 1.2 released ; new installation procedure ; many big problems corrected ; html code of new bbodes templates updated ; tested and validated XHTML
-03/07/2006 : now you can config several style ids

-Important-

• To update from 1.30 just import the product file
• To uninstall version 1.1 or version 1.2, you have to follow a specific procedure described in the archive.
  
  
• [s]To avoid display problems, i strongly advice you to set the "Code Block Width" (available in you style options) to 100%. If you prefer pixels, choose a little value ; especually if you're using legacy postbit. Never enter "auto" otherwise it won't work.[/s]
  The "Code Block Width" must be in pixels Otherwise there are too numerous problems. So forget my advice to put a value in %. It must be in pixels. In 800x600 there is a display problem, but it's the same thing with vb default templates. So i guess we can't do anything.
• If the text display doesn't suite you, you can do easily what you want. Just turn off the "CSS BBcode text" module and create the CSS : .bbcode
  Do it on your own : you won't be helped for this.

This modification is available in french on vBulletin-fr.org
This french forum is acting against vB piracy

Sorry to ruin your day.
The horizontal scroll bar problem is a lot better, but when people view threads with any of the bbcode_ mods, in screen resolutions of 1024x768 or less, they still get the horizontal scrollers.

The other problem is that we own a copy of Geeks Auto-Links and get some peculiar irregularities in the display as you can see from the images below.
The top two are from Internet Explorer and the lower two from Firefox.
In Firefox the GALs are being truncated, but in IE the GAL logo is overwriting the first character of the GAL.





It would be really great if this can be fixed as all our members really like this mod.
Many thanks

That's strange. I'm going to try to reproduce this error. I don't think it will be hard to solve if i manage to reproduce it.

I've also got GAL and i've got no problem. Can you send me by pm the adress of the post message. I'd like to have a look to the code.

[cclaerhout]

Thanks for the link sent in PM. I've looked at the code and it seems there is a problem with your GAL configuration.

The error comes from the $username variable used in quotes bbcode ! It is replaced by

 <a rel='nofollow' href='http://www.cornishserver.com/forums/private.php?do=newpm&amp;u=21' target='_blank' class='gal' onmouseover='GAL_popup(this,"1", 0, "style=\"border: 1pt solid #000000;\"", "Private Message Private Parts", "style=\"background: #FFFFCC;padding: 2px;font-size: 10px;\"");' onmouseout='GAL_hidepopup();'>Private Parts</a> 
</div>

Check your configuration... the problem doesn't come from this hack. Just a question : don't you have a problem with the normal vB bbcodes ? I'm sure TheGeek will have a solution

I've tried to reproduce the problem without success. Can you make some screens ? I've tested with a 800x600 resolution and its works perfectly. Just see the joined picture.

You're getting this one third hand because I was reciting what a couple of my members had reported back to me. I will ask them for screenies.
p.s. I must admin that I couldn't replicate the scrolling bars either..

As far as I can see, the GAL replacement is correct and going through the 'Replacements' it is as it should be, and display correctly everywhere else.

What do you mean am I having a problem with the normal vB bbcodes?? You confuse me a little.
Many thanks for all your positive action and fast responce

Tell me if the defaut quotes bbcode (see the picture) has the same problem or not. To access defaut vb bbcodes don't precise your style id in the options.

I don't understand : You've made a replacement on some usernames ?

[gothicuser]

I think I have the answer for the GAL problems, you are correct. i am updating the forums over the next couple of days and if we are correct then all should be fine
Thankyou

[cclaerhout]

I've understand what your member means. There are still problems with ie. Some french users report me a few problems (one is going to be hard to solve -> try to generate your cache and you will understand.). I'll try to release an update tomorrow before going on a business trip for 2 days.

[Scooterpig]

Great hack and working fine for me but wondering please if it's possible to move the Word for the BBCode being used form the right over to the left hand side please. I see that Quote is on the left but HTML, CODE & PHP are all over on the right hand side.

Thank you..
