In the first code and example you just posted the reason is that any langauge file inside a en or nl etc folder will be used when langauge in ucp is changed. Like standard on the this mod.

And the second code you tried doesnt work for faq manager unless you recode that some way.

So you can choose 3 options. Keep the file inside a en or nl folder and use the faq manager, or dont use it and place it outside these folders. or recode the faq manager, Ask in the mod topic.

But trust me after you first make the language file and set it up like you like it. then its very easy to just open the file directly and edit it. Just copy existing link,paste it in, edit and save. or just do your edits in faq manager and move the file to /langauge/

Thanks so much for this mod - just what i was looking for.

One minor issue though - i hope you can help me with. The link icon is not showing properly. The bottom part of the icon seems to be cut off for some reason. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Here you go.

(Since I am using a grey theme I just duplicated and renamed the FAQ icon until i re-worked the color with the one included with the mod. It does the same thing though.)

Its a bit strange. If the image is the same it should show just like the other. Try to use the org faq.

FInd

Code: Select all

<!-- IF S_HIDE_LINKSMOD --><li class="icon-links"><a href="{U_LINKS}" title="{L_LINKS_PAGE}">{L_LINKS}</a></li><!-- ENDIF -->
Replace with

Code: Select all

<!-- IF S_HIDE_LINKSMOD --><li class="icon-faq"><a href="{U_LINKS}" title="{L_LINKS_PAGE}">{L_LINKS}</a></li><!-- ENDIF -->
That way you use the exact same icon that works allready. But this is a modification on a unknown style so there could be other things. But as always refresh imageset and theme.

I'm using a custom subsilver2 theme which doesn't have:

Code: Select all

<a href="{U_FAQ}">
Will I still be able to use this mod?

*EDIT*

Figured it out. Nevermind. ;)

Just a thought,

With the permissions on this, would it be possible to change it in that only users with an xx post count could view? would this be easy to implement??

Cheers

No worrys, just a thought as i run to copys of this mod, links and offers. would have liked to make offers permission so that only those that had posted would be able to view. so would avoid those just signing up to get the offers from viewing. i.e. they have to contribute first. :)

Another think im looking at/thinking about is changing the location to drop down for example our offers are only relavant to those who live in the UK so location is dropdown select by county and then the links page is region specific so someone in xxxxx county will have on the links page those national companies and those that are local to them :) heavy i know! biting on more than i can chew ;)

You could use auto groups for that. Check it out.

Sounds like a nice feature. Maybe someone can come up with a if statement for that. IF LANG_ID=2 LINKTEXT END

Thanks

Took a look at autogroup makes light work off it. creat a new group called offer acces (hidden) and then just set it to add after a certain post count.. job done!

Thanks

Every time i try to access the install_links_mod.php, i get logged out from the forum and get the You are not authorised to access this area. error. I am the founder of the forum, so there should not be any permissions issue's..
