Cherokee,

I see a conflict. I love this MOD and will keep it at the top and leave this one at the bottom unless I can get them to work together up top

Is there a way to move the "Welcome" and avatar it displays to the top of the forum?

I find it more convent like that since, my board has a whole lot of forums.

RedBlade,

Go to page 11 of this forum and look at the last post on the bottom of the page, it'll give you the fix.

Cherokee had answered that very same question for me

Hi!

I LOVE this mod, and it's working perfectly, and I don't want to move it anywhere else on my index page.

However.....

I do have one picky, petty even, formatting question. The "welcome & avatar" part shows up with a thin border line around it, and I'm obsessive enuf to think it would look better with no line. I've rooted around in index.tpl and index.php and I can't find a way to make the line go away.

Can you tell me how I can make this border either gone, or at least change it to white so it appears gone?

Thx!

The MOD Author had promised a new version by now that would have the avatar in the welcome panel but I haven't seen that happen yet and so i'm wondering what is going on.

Looks like he hasn't been on in quite awhile. A search for his username in posts shows this is the most recent: May 04, 2005.

I just tried this mod. I have many years programming experience and followed the instructions step by step. It was very simple to use but I did receive 4 error messages I had to debug myself to get the forum working.

I had to replace && in several if statements to get the forum working again. I just changed them manually to && instead, but why is this in the code like this? I also had to change > and < to the appropiate symbols to get it working.

I got the forum working but it only works subsilver. Is there anyway to get it to work for all templates?

I also get this following code instead of the avatar and welcome message.

Code: Select all

 < img src="templates/subSilver/images/whosonline.gif" alt="Who is Online" />  	  Welcome
< a href="profile.php?mode=editprofile&amp;3" /> angryhobbit< /a>

< img src="images/avatars/200487398144acc4c0b41bf.jpg" alt="" border="0" />

It is the spaces causing the issues? If so then from what I have seen of some of these mod is that they are very poorly written, but this is one of the best ones I have seen although it did cause several errors and does not work as easily as suggested.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Update:

I got this finally working for the subsilver theme. Very nice when I got it going. We also have the AcidTech theme installed and more planned for installation.

It was a challenge to find out exactly what needed to be modified to have this work with another theme, but I had a theory and tested it and it worked.

In the instructions for the mod it says to replace certain line with other lines in the index_body.tpl file in the subsilver folder. Making these exacty same changes except changing the folder name appropiately for AcidTech got it working for that theme as well.

This was a very fun challenge, which I love nothing more when it comes to computers and programming. Despite the minor errors that required debugging and the minor HTML errors causing display errors this is a very nicely written mod.

Thank you to the author for taking the time in coding everything required.

I love this mod...been using it for about 6 months

I just wondered if you can expand it a little. I was thinking of having a extra message which you do inside the admin panel where you just put text or an image. That would be really useful. I'm currently adding it manually to each theme but that isn't very practical.

techzone - That's an ace welcome panel!
