Add GLOW vB Buttons (v1.1) · **Released**: 08-09-2002

Add GLOW vB Buttons to New Thread / New Reply (v1.1)

This will add GLOW vB Buttons... Screen shots attached in next post... If you install... Please click install. I also forgot to mention that this is my first "hack", so tell me what you think... This has been tested by some members, but things could still screw up... DON'T FORGET TO BACKUP!

SCREENSHOTS:
Buttons
Glow Effect

ONLINE DEMO:
I've installed it on my board: http://www.cnchq.com/forum

How to add more colors?
Just add a duplicate (queries, template, and file edits), change "red" to your desired color.

*grin*

One more thing, this might just be me, but I think the demo site is down...

I don't think so, I'm at it right now, I'll make sure the link is correct

Matt87 · #54 08-23-2002, 05:11 PM

Yup, Its up!

sorry, that was just me.

there is still a problem with the sql code, however it's an easy one to fix, once you have inserted the code, you need to go into the vB code section of the admin panel, choose to edit each of the colours you add, and then hit "save Changes"

I don't know why this is, but I've just installed it again, and yet again it had a problem, but doing what I listed above will fix it

Hmm... Well it worked fine for everyone before, I do know that you have to run the SQL query in the bbcode mysql table

I get {param} that glows when I install this hack??

Ninth Dimension · #58 09-23-2002, 09:22 AM

I had this problem myself, but I don't know why.
what I do know is how to fix it

Goto the Admin panel -> Custom vB Codes -> Modify.

find the glow code, click edit (don't change anything) then click save changes. - That should fix it.

good luck.

I'd like ot install this hack, or something like it. The only problem I have with it is for each color you need a separate button. Would it be possible to set up this hack so it's more like the 'SIZE' 'FONT' and 'COLOR' options in a drop down box?

It could say 'GLOW' as the default selected option, and then you could drop down the box which would have as many different colors as you want in it, and once selected, insert the appropriate vbcode into the document.

Just curious if this can be done, as I don't really want to have 3 - 10 different buttons for whatever colors I want the text to glow.

Great hack otherwise!

Oops. Nevermind. Just figured out how to do it.

I get an error that when I type text it just says {param} Why?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
