Signature Image System Hack - Version 3.0+... · **Released**: 11-01-2002

This hack is now a Full Release!!!...You can visit the BETA thread here - I will still be using that thread to test out upcoming versions!

Please do the following before attempting to install:

1.) Backup your Files & Database before doing anything
2.) Be aware that although I have tested this myself, there may still be problems...If you do not backup your files & database, I cannot condone your install of this hack...

The files you should have are:

In the main folder
modifications.php
templates.php
queries.php
3.0 - Show Signatures.php
3.0 - Usergroup override - permissions.php
NEW INSTALL.php

In the root folder
signature.php

In the admin folder
signature.php

*================================================= ================================================== ==================*
Please Note:
The install files are in the ".php" format, as vBulletin.org Parses all "{ imagesfolder }" and other replacment variables
used in the code - With .php extensions, it does not.
*================================================= ================================================== ==================*

Updating from BETA

Depending on what version you are updating from, I recommend the following:

Version 1.0Beta - 2.1Beta - Complete re-install
Version 2.2Beta - Follow the instructions for the .php files starting "3.0", and there is one register.php modification and one usercp.php modification in the "modifications.php" file
Version 3.0Beta - There is one register.php modification and one usercp.php modification in the "modifications.php" file

v3+ comes out!
v3+ is really just the following:

Converting of all install files to .php format (to prevent code parsing)
Creation of an extra folder (root) to house the root/signature.php file (so you dont get confused with the install .php files)
The root/usercp.php modifcation I forgot to include

Enjoy!

simple

you guys made it so it wont work if there is no signature text

how do I revert it so it does .. I do not wish to use the code straight on the postbit since it would mess the rest of my sig components

Chris M · #63 11-15-2002, 08:31 PM

And I posted how to revert it...

I suppose you could make the "$postbit[signature]" part of the admin/functions.php file to a value of"$postbit[signatureimg]" when they dont put in a signature, but I designed it so that it was either Posbit or in the Signature itself...

Sure...

Just remove the following from the "post_signature" template:

Code:

$post[signatureimg]

and add it to the postbit template, where you want it to appear

Then edit the postbit_signatureimg template, and remove the :

Code:

<br>

at the beginning...

Hell Satan

you posted the above .. and I understand it .. my problem is, i have other things in my "postbit_signature" if I put "$post[signatureimg]" on the postbit directly, when I have an image, it will sure display it .. but not the rest I have on "postbit_signature"

what I need is a way to keep "$post[signatureimg]" IN postbit_signature" and have the image work if there is no text in the signature box

please let me knwo if I am still confusing you here

you say

woudl this do it ?, and if so .. can you teach me how ?

Chris M · #65 11-16-2002, 11:27 AM

I am not sure whether it would do it, but here goes...

Remember to backup your file first

Open admin/functions.php
Find:

PHP Code:


			
            } else {

                $post[signature] = $sigcache["$post[userid]"];

            }

        } else {

            $post[signature] = "";

replace with:

PHP Code:


			
            } else {

                $post[signature] = $sigcache["$post[userid]"];

            }

        } else {

            $post[signature] = "$post[signatureimg]";

That may work, that may not...I havent tested it...

Satan

CRego3D · #66 11-16-2002, 12:50 PM

ok, we are 99% there

it will display the $post[signatureimg] indeed .. but it will not display the full content of ""postbit_signature"" (becuase it is not what is lookign for I guess)

so in essence it works the same as if I had put the $post[signatureimg] in the postibit

I truly appreciate you trying to help

Chris M · #67 11-16-2002, 06:29 PM

Hmmm...

I shall have a think...

Perhaps I can enlist the help of some friends

Satan

Chris M · #68 11-16-2002, 06:37 PM

Ok...

Try this!
Open admin/functions.php
Find:

PHP Code:


			
} else {

                $post[signature] = $sigcache["$post[userid]"];

            }

        } else {

            $post[signature] = "";

Replace with:

PHP Code:


			
} else {

                $post[signature] = $sigcache["$post[userid]"];

            }

        } else {

            $post[signature] = "$post[signatureimg]";

  eval("\$post[signature] = \"".gettemplate("postbit_signature")."\";");

I guess it is not ment to be

the code as you gave me it woudl give 2 signature pics ..

like this would show fine

PHP Code:


			
} else {

                $post[signature] = $sigcache["$post[userid]"];

            }

        } else {

            $post[signature] = "";

  eval("\$post[signature] = \"".gettemplate("postbit_signature")."\";");

BUT .. this also means that EVERY post would include the "postbit_signature" (therefore, a post of a user with no signature, will show the extra stuff I have on it wich is suposed to be used with a signature)

If it cant' be done it's fine I'll revert to somethign else

.. I just wish I knew on your code what did n9ne change to make the pic not show if you dont' have sig text

Chris M · #70 11-17-2002, 08:34 AM

I will investigate...

I am sure there is a logical way around it...
