Change "Log out" Text (Simple mod I think)

[Neon_]

I wanna change the text
"Log out [Username]"
to
"You are logged in as username [Log out]"
But only have the words "Log out" as a link.

Hi,

You don't need a MOD for this.

You just need to search in the language files for that string and change it.

But that would just change the text, wouldn't it? I wanna make it so only "Log out" is a link.

[StijnH]

Then you need to edit your language file and your template file

[Neon_]

Yeah I got both open, Im trying to figure it out. I'm not that good w/ php.
If someone could just supply the code or something and I could learn offa that It would be nice.

[Neon_]

Anyone?

[StijnH]

kk i'll have a look (for subsilver only )

[Neon_]

Yeah thnx man. Subsilvers what I'm using anyway, just modding it up ALOT. I can figure out how to tweak it to my mods if needed.

[StijnH]

sorry but it'll be for tomorrow
going to bed now, gotta work tomorrow (doing a vacation job in a theme park )
i think that it wont mather if it takes a day longer?

[Neon_]

Naw man I can work on other stuff in the mean time. But yeah I gotta get everything done for monday at the very latest.

includes/page_header.php around line 76:

Code: Select all

//
// Generate logged in/logged out status
//
if ( $userdata['session_logged_in'] )
{
	$u_login_logout = 'login.'.$phpEx.'?logout=true&sid=' . $userdata['session_id'];
	$l_login_logout = $lang['Logout'] . ' [ ' . $userdata['username'] . ' ]';
}

Thanks camm, used that n got it sorted out. StijnH, no need for you to help me w/ this anymore, got it on my own (er sorta). Thanks anyways.

I modded that code into:

Code: Select all

	$u_login_logout = 'login.'.$phpEx.'?logout=true&sid=' . $userdata['session_id'];
	$l_login_logout = $lang['Logout'];

and added this in later on down the page:

Code: Select all

if ($userdata['user_id'] != '-1')
	{
		$my_user_log = $userdata['username'];
	}

And put this as my code for displaying it in overall_header.tpl:

Code: Select all

<!-- BEGIN switch_user_logged_in -->
Logged in as {MY_USER_LOG} [
<!-- END switch_user_logged_in -->
<a href="{U_LOGIN_LOGOUT}" class="mainmenu">{L_LOGIN_LOGOUT}</a></span>
<!-- BEGIN switch_user_logged_in -->
]
<!-- END switch_user_logged_in -->

[deejaybet]

do you have better instructions for that?

[Neon_]

um sure but gimme a sec, im learning how all this works a bit better now and im gunna clean up the code a bit 1st. Mostly just to get rid of 3 unessesary spaces.

This code will display the text as follows anywhere in your page header (where the parts in blue are replace with the name of the user that is logged in, and the parts in green are links:

When logged in:

Logged in as username [Log out]

When logged out:

Register | Log in

Open up page_header.php

Find:

Code: Select all

// 
// Generate logged in/logged out status 
// 
if ( $userdata['session_logged_in'] ) 
{ 
   $u_login_logout = 'login.'.$phpEx.'?logout=true&sid=' . $userdata['session_id']; 
   $l_login_logout = $lang['Logout'] . ' [ ' . $userdata['username'] . ' ]'; 
}

Replace with:

Code: Select all

//
// Generate logged in/logged out status
//
if ( $userdata['session_logged_in'] )
{
	$u_login_logout = 'login.'.$phpEx.'?logout=true&sid=' . $userdata['session_id'];
	$l_login_logout = $lang['Logout'];
}

Find:

Code: Select all

// Format Timezone. We are unable to use array_pop here, because of PHP3 compatibility

Before, Add:

Code: Select all

// Logged As - Neon_
if ($userdata['user_id'] != '-1')
{
	$my_user_log = $userdata['username'];
}

Now open up overall_header.tpl and paste the following code whever you want it to be displayed:

Code: Select all

<!-- BEGIN switch_user_logged_out -->
<a href="{U_REGISTER}" class="mainmenu">{L_REGISTER}</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;
<a href="{U_LOGIN_LOGOUT}" class="mainmenu">{L_LOGIN_LOGOUT}</a>
<!-- END switch_user_logged_out -->
<!-- BEGIN switch_user_logged_in -->
Logged in as {MY_USER_LOG} [<a href="{U_LOGIN_LOGOUT}" class="mainmenu">{L_LOGIN_LOGOUT}</a>]
<!-- END switch_user_logged_in -->
