Welcome Panel Template Rewrite v2.1 · **Released**: 11-12-2005

Introduction:

I found Zero Tolerence's Welcome Panel's template dull, and it had a lot of mistakes on my computer, and it shows up on a lot of the sites I visit that have it. It annoyed me so I threw together my own Template for his hack. This is it. I've called it Welcome Panel Template Rewrite, as that's exactly what it is. It's about to go into it's next version, so be on the look out.

This hack will not work if...

You must install this hack (Zero Tolerence's Welcome Panel) before my hack will work. It requires the plugins. Just don't follow the installation instructions for the template.

Installing:

All you have to do to install this hack is upload the .xml file that's attached to your Products Manager and it'll install the template and phrases.

Note: Be sure to chose the correct .xml! It is reccomended that you chose either v1.3 (location within zip: back releases/v1.x) or v2.1.1's XML file (main folder)!

Displays New Posts
Avatar Display
Forum Stats
Fully Phrased

got it....didn't realize I had to enable plugins. <----n00b

You need to install zero tolerences and I don't have an xml file yet.

King Kovifor · #49 11-25-2005, 12:40 PM

OK I got an xml file that SHOULD install phrases. I'll be updating the template today, if I still have it, if I don't (I just need access to the test vb again, it's gone all haywire with vB.com hackers into the license account and they've used our license and someone reported us as hackers and now we are under investigation and he took it down.

SO no access for now.)

Hello,

I have a problem, the % and the messages per day are not working. As exemple, for me, the % is always showing 20% et the posts par day are always at 0.00.

The worst is for any of my members, they have % like 12'000% or 2380% lol that's amazing, fun but very strange...

Is there a way to fix it ?

Thanks

King Kovifor · #51 11-25-2005, 09:02 PM

gameslover, I think your asking the wrong author.

It's probably somethign todo with Zero Tolerence's part, try to reinstall the hack. That might work.

Thanks you, but I have already tried to contact him without success... he seems to be very busy right now... I'll try to reinstall it, thanks you for the suggestion

King Kovifor · #53 11-25-2005, 09:33 PM

Your Welcome, just let me know if it works.

gameslover · #54 11-26-2005, 09:04 AM

I tried to reinstall it but unfortunately without success... it's very strange because the posts per day are working for my members but not for me lol...
I'll try to contact Zero Tolerance again hoping he will be less busy in some days...

King Kovifor · #55 11-26-2005, 06:11 PM

Can you send me your template please?

gameslover · #56 11-26-2005, 09:17 PM

Yes of course but it's the same that in your first post

	<td class="tcat" colspan="3" align="center">

$vbphrase[wp_welcomeback] {$bbuserinfo['username']}!
	</td>
</tr>
<tbody id="collapseobj_forumhome_welcomepanel" style="$vbcollapse[collapseobj_forumhome_welcomepanel]">
	<tr>
		<td class="alt1" align="center" width="1%">

King Kovifor · #58 11-27-2005, 05:13 PM

Can you both add screen Caps?

Gizmo's Code?

to: bonjurkes

did you install the product? That's what adds the phrases.

bonjurkes · #59 11-27-2005, 11:48 PM

yep i did it king. but phrases didnt shown after i changed the template with the second code it was all looking good

King Kovifor · #60 11-27-2005, 11:50 PM

ok try this:

uninstall my xml, than delete the template. AFTER adding the xml again, try the template again.

bonjurkes · #61 11-27-2005, 11:53 PM
