Extension Download: v1.1.4 for phpBB 3.1.x ::: v1.2.4 for phpBB 3.2.x

Important Notes: This extension gives guests all admin permissions to allow them to access "the fake ACP" and play around with ACP styles. Why do that?

• This extension is made for demo/testing sites, not in production.
• Nothing is important on a demo site.
• Guests can access ACP, but they can not make any changes because all submit buttons are disabled by PHP.

Link to the Demo with a specified style?
http://<your.com>/demo/#prosilver or http://<your.com>/demo/?style=prosilver

Create a local screenshot?
Create a <style_varname>.png and put it into ./ext/vinabb/stylesdemo/assets/screenshots/frontend/. The <style_varname> is the text which appears after # in URL, e.g. http://your.com/demo/#bootlike then the screenshot filename is bootlike.png.

How to create a ACP style to test?

1. Copy ./ext/vinabb/stylesdemo/app/styles/_example and rename it, e.g. 'test'.
2. Edit info in .../test/style.cfg.
3. Copy ./adm/style to ./ext/vinabb/stylesdemo/app/styles/test/style.
4. Copy ./adm/images to ./ext/vinabb/stylesdemo/app/styles/test/images.
5. Open .../test/style/overall_header.html, find:

   Code: Select all

   <link href="style/admin.css

   and replace it with:

   Code: Select all

   <link href="{T_TEMPLATE_PATH}/admin.css

6. Do above step again for .../test/style/simple_header.html
7. Go to ACP -> EXTENSIONS -> Styles Demo -> Manage ACP Styles -> Add new ACP styles.

I like, nice job!!!

Thanks my friends Just add the package for 3.2.x to test. Since this extension comes with the fake ACP and exec() function, I think it has no chance to be validated. But some phpBB resource sites will need it, includes my site

Updated to v1.1.1

- Redirect to demo page if any visitors go to our demo board directly.
- Allow registered users to preview ACP styles as guest.
- Enable Unicode support for the hover logo text.
- Basic support for RTL languages.
- Do not hide feature buttons on phone browsers.
- Fixed the disabled message for guests, since they have admin permissions.
- Removed old Open Sans fonts and go online.
- Removed the doubled style URL for language switcher.

Installed this exentsion and seems working fine, but a day later I noticed that I was not anymore able to login at my board and always got redirected to:

app/demo

folder. After disable this exentsion via PHPMYAdmin I was able again to login at my side and got no more redirect to this app/demo folder.

Hi Raul, I'm very glad to see your demo site using this ext I remember I visited last month, it seems that you are my first customer

Are you using an admin account but not founder? Please use the founder account to login and manage ACP since this ext gives guests admin permissions. In order, founder can use any page without redirecting to demo page.

Well, but now it's time to new requests or features...

1- It would be possible to add style data (e.x. author, version, author URL, URL official support, etc.) from the ACP?
2- It would be possible to add two mirros for each style (e.x. mirror my server, mirror SourceForge or GitHub) from the ACP?

I think it would be interesting for me and good features in general.

Best regards.

Sure my account has founders permissions and still saw demo link and was not able to login anymore after I was logged out. Or must permissions first changed before login out from the board, to be able to coming back ?

Open ext/vinabb/stylesdemo/event/listener.php and find: (Line 137)

Code: Select all

if (!$style && !$acp_style && !in_array($this->user->page['page_name'], array("app.{$this->php_ext}/demo/", "app.{$this->php_ext}/demo/acp", "app.{$this->php_ext}/demo/acp/")) && $this->user->data['user_type'] != USER_FOUNDER)

Replace with:

Code: Select all

if (!$style && !$acp_style && !in_array($this->user->page['page_name'], array("app.{$this->php_ext}/demo/", "app.{$this->php_ext}/demo/acp", "app.{$this->php_ext}/demo/acp/")) && $this->user->data['user_type'] != USER_FOUNDER && !defined('IN_LOGIN'))

Hope this will fix your problem.

That sounds great your suggestions, the new version will implement them

Yes it fixes the LOGIN. Thanks, but I'm still not able to get to any page and can't even see the forums at INDEX.PHP. Still getting always the login page and can't view the side or forum as normal when extension is running. Still the same turning off exentsion and forum categories shown everything showing fine. That strange, but will keep searching what causing this issue.

Yes, so strange but it makes me curious and exciting to find out the reason. The purpose of this redirection: if the visitors visit a page without ?style= (it means they do not preview styles) or type some dummy things as http://recyclebin.vinabb.vn/adsjashjasdgjhasdjasd ... will be redirected to the demo page.

Can you add:

Code: Select all

die(print_r($this->user->page));

before the line:

Code: Select all

redirect($this->helper->route('vinabb_stylesdemo_route', array('mode' => '')));

and let me know which print out the screen?

Anyway, you can ignore redirections by commenting out // the line 80:

Code: Select all

'core.user_setup_after'			=> 'redirect_to_demo',
