ACP Announcement Centre

[lefty74]

Thanks Lefty for a great great mod! I installed this successfully on a 3.0.7 PL1.

thanks

I've noticed a minor issue after installing AC via automod.
AC installs with no errors and works great with one exception that I can find (so far), AC seems to be causing issues for the 'style inheritance' that is used by Prosilver_se.
When sending a PM to myself no issues, but when sending a PM to another user I get this error.

Fatal error: The file ./styles/prosilver_se/template/bbcode.html is missing. in C:\phpBB\xampp\htdocs\PSA\includes\bbcode.php on line 150

This affects live and local installs. I can clear this error by adding the Prosilver bbcode.html file to the Prosilver_se template but it is not suppose to be there.
3.0.5 updated to 3.0.7-PL1 using complete file replacement. MODs=automod and announcement center.
Looks like I'm not the only user that has experienced this issue. See Bug Tracker
Just thought you would like to know.

thanks, i use prosilver_se on my own board. I have announcement centre installed (but not automod) and have no issues sending pm's to any user. Will take a look though.

Hi i updated my forum to 3.07 and the mod disappeared somehow, i haven't deleted any part or something, its there in the acp but its not viewable on the board.
Any help?

pse doublecheck that the mod edits are still place, i would start with the overall_header.html file.

Clear your cache in the acp main screen and your browser cache.

I have announcement centre installed (but not automod) and have no issues sending pm's to any user.

Sorry, I didn't mention that all PM's send correctly. I just get the error message.

Hello!

I hope this hasn't been answered before, but I really haven't found an answer using the search function for this thread.

Is it possible to make the image of the avatar clickable so that it links to the profile just like {bdannounce.ANNOUNCEMENT_USERNAME} does? Actually I just need what to put in for the href:

<a href="?">{bdannounce.ANNOUNCEMENT_AVATAR}</a>

Any ideas?

Since upgrading to 3.0.7 & intalling the ACP anouncement MOD the new user registration Code Image screen has dissapeared.

Any ideas?

many thanks

This has nothing to do with this mod, you need to update your style to 3.0.7 too.

Could it be something I did in the code mods?

Hi, just wanted to let you know that on a fresh local install I am getting the same error.
On my upgraded up to date board I don't.
So far, I believe my mod discovered this as an issue rather than causing it if you know what i mean.
Will see if I can get to the bottom of it...

in includes/functions_announcements.php
find

Code: Select all

			'ANNOUNCEMENT_AVATAR'	=> ($row['user_avatar']) ? get_user_avatar($row['user_avatar'], $row['user_avatar_type'], $bdavatar_width, $bdavatar_height, $row['username']) : '<img src="' . $phpbb_root_path . 'styles/' . $user->theme['imageset_path'] . '/theme/images/no_avatar.gif" height="' . $config['announcement_ava_max_size'] . '" width="' . $config['announcement_ava_max_size'] . '" title="" alt=""  />',

replace with

Code: Select all

			'ANNOUNCEMENT_AVATAR'	=> ($row['user_avatar']) ? '<a href="' . get_username_string('profile', $row['user_id'], $row['username'], $row['user_colour']) . '">' . get_user_avatar($row['user_avatar'], $row['user_avatar_type'], $bdavatar_width, $bdavatar_height, $row['username']) .'</a>' : '<a href="' . get_username_string('profile', $row['user_id'], $row['username'], $row['user_colour']) . '"><img src="' . $phpbb_root_path . 'styles/' . $user->theme['imageset_path'] . '/theme/images/no_avatar.gif" height="' . $config['announcement_ava_max_size'] . '" width="' . $config['announcement_ava_max_size'] . '" title="" alt=""  /></a>',

i dont know, easiest to check is to uninstall the announcement centre and see if you still have the problem.

Hi Lefty74!

Thank you very much for the code for linking the avatar. It works fine.

I changed the announcement_centre.html for prosilver quite a bit to replace the table(s) with divs and to have the avatars/usernames in one row in case more than one person has his birthday. If you like I can send you the changed files/edits I made, so you maybe could include it as alternative for an update.

[lefty74]

multiple birthdays should work fine as is to be honest.

[wolfman24]

Yes, they do. No need for this code

I'm running phpBB 3.0.6 and AC is the first mod I've installed. I can add the module in the ACP but it doesn't show up after I add it to one of the existing tabs. I've cleared the phpBB cache and my browser cache but still nothing. I've made sure that it is enabled. I'm not sure if I'm just missing a setting or a particular configuration somewhere. I created a new category 'module' for mods.

Any help is appreciated.

[lefty74]

did you run the install/index.php file?

you should have a category called .MODs. That is where the install script sets up the modules.
