Miscellaneous Hacks - jQt Sliding Log-In & Register

DESCRIPTION:
This mod will add a tabbed drop-down slider for both 'Log-In' and 'Register' dialogues based on the jQuery Tools Library.

UPGRADE:
This release only addresses a couple of compatibility issues. It will now play more friendly with other jQuery scripts.

The registration Human Verification component supports the 'Image Verification', 'Question & Answer' and the 'reCAPTCHA' modules, but NOT third party ones.
Please remember that if you have more than one mod that uses jQuery, they could conflict with each other.

You can see a demo HERE
(You need to select the 'Grey' theme from the drop-down 'Choose your theme..')

The next upgrade will include alternative styles amongst other things.

To Upgrade from Beta 1:
All you need to do is re-import the product file, allowing overwrite.

Installation:
Upload the content of the 'Upload' folder to your forum root, retaining directory structure.
If you already have TMS installed, the installation is a breeze, simply import the product file 'product-jqt_sliding_login.xml' in your AdminCP/Plugins & Products/Manage Products/

If you do not have TMS then in addition to importing the product file you will need to carry out the template edits found in the 'Template Edits.html' document. There aren't too many.

Configure the mod in AdminCP/Settings/Options/jQt Sliding Login

All updates/future releases and support are now only available at jqt-suite.co.uk

Hi Gothic

I installed TMS and then your mod but it does not show up at all.

Any tips on what i might be doing wrong ?

I have enabled the mod in the options, i've messed around with the position ect but still no luck...

Thanks in advance

I only got out of hospital yesterday after 49 days, 7 hours and a few minutes and will be convalescing for a few days before committing myself to any more support, sorry. My eyes are shot to pieces and really not up to much just yet.
I'll get back up to speed soon, so please be patient just a little longer. Thanks

If any one is having problems seeing the whole page in vb 4.2 like i was, here is a temp fix until the plugin author fixes/updates the plugin again

Follow the Template Edits until you get to

PHP Code:

Find the following Text in Template header:
</vb:if>
            </ul> 


instead find:

PHP Code:

<input type="submit" class="loginbutton" tabindex="104" value="{vb:rawphrase log_in}" title="{vb:rawphrase enter_username_to_login_or_register}" accesskey="s" /> 


and add this under it:

PHP Code:

<vb:if condition="$vboptions['jqt_slider_active']">
</noscript>
</vb:if> 


Then find:

PHP Code:

<label for="cb_cookieuser_navbar"><input type="checkbox" name="cookieuser" value="1" id="cb_cookieuser_navbar" class="cb_cookieuser_navbar" accesskey="c" tabindex="103" /> 


(NOTE: i couldent remember what was between <label> </lable>
so when replacing remove </label> form the original)

and replace it with:

PHP Code:

<label for="cb_cookieuser_navbar"><input type="hidden" name="cookieuser" value="1" id="cb_cookieuser_navbar" class="cb_cookieuser_navbar" accesskey="c" tabindex="103" /> </label> 


If you have connecting with facebook on:

Find this:
(last one down, not on top!)

PHP Code:

                <vb:if condition="$vboptions['enablefacebookconnect']">
                    {vb:raw facebook_header}
                </vb:if> 


And then replace it with this:

PHP Code:

<noscript>
                <vb:if condition="$vboptions['enablefacebookconnect']">
                    {vb:raw facebook_header}
                </vb:if>
</noscript> 


and continue with the rest of the template edits

hope this helps!

if your on 4.2 and have TMS, thats your error.

Try removing TMS and adding the template edits your self, also i posted a fix right above you

After installation it hides site's body if user is not logged in, how to turn this hiding off ?

After using BExDeath fixes, site shows up if user is not logged in but....whole forum width goes crazy its much wider and after loggin in it gets normal.

What causes whole forum body to get wider ?

Which version of vB are you using?
If it is 4.2 then I'm sorry, I haven't looked into that yet. I have been unable to do any coding for the last few months, but am slowly getting back into it now.
Will have an upgrade (or patch) for 4.2 by the end of this week I hope.

[Vesparion]

Yes its 4.2

I'm curious how this handles links to register.php. Does the drop-down just load on the current page without going to register.php.?
