Read the first page of this thread. I explain how to fix that there. You have to move the hack further down in index.php so the $newusername value is determined before this hack. It's always a good idea to read the whole thread before installing a hack. I even read the 15 page ones.

I'm having the same problem, I put the code where you said but it doesn't cycle for some reason?

JTMON · #27 11-27-2001, 01:43 AM

I just reread the instructions. Didn't realize I had to move the entire hack below that line. DOH

It works now. That's what counts.

JTMON · #29 11-27-2001, 01:48 AM

Well acutally no it's not now either

I made the changes, but it only shows the new member, then it cycles away and nothing comes up. I added a test news messge too

JTMON · #30 11-27-2001, 01:50 AM

again I misspoke. It cycles to my test message but because I hyperlinked it, it's the same color as the bacground

How do I change the fader background color? and font color on fader itself?

Also, it cylces to my test message and stops. shouldn't it keep going in a circle back to newest member?

The fader background color and font color are at the top of the fader.js file. You can also change the color of the cell around the fader in the forumhome template addition. I am not sure why you wouldn't continuously cycle unless you changed the number of cycles in the fader.js file. I think it defaults to 100.
