It is differnet, so the changes that you made are ok to do?

You do see the difference between your file and mine yes?

This mod was denied twice, then I resubmitted. During updates, you must have downloaded the version before the last one. Yes, there are slight changes.
Please download from the first post in this topic, thanks.

I have. But i re-downloaded it again and checked the files you have in the ziped up folder and on line 26 of the functions_users_colour.php:

Code: Select all

'topic_first_poster_colour'		=> $update_user_colour,

Mine is this:

Code: Select all

'topic_first_poster_colour'		=> $db->sql_escape($update_user_colour),

There all slightly different.(The files that i need to upload from the zip files)

If i upload yours, to overwrite mine, surley it wont work as its re writen the first bi, if that makes sense?

So i guess there is something a miss?

One of MODDB denial reasons of this mod was unneccesary use of $db->sql_escape , so I deleted them before resubmitting again.
Now, I've just downloaded the mod zip file again from MODDB, it's the latest, and has no $db->sql_escape in it.

How do I remove the BOLD as in the attached screenshot? I tried to edit admin.css and links.css and changed the class username-coloured (from bold to none) but it didn't work. Having it bold is too distracting.

[mtrs]

Open
styles/prosilver/theme/links.css
Find

Code: Select all

/* Coloured usernames */
.username-coloured {
	font-weight: bold;
	display: inline !important;
	padding: 0 !important;
}

Find and Delete

Code: Select all

	font-weight: bold;

I tested at localhost, it works. You may need to purge cache and refresh themes.

Thanks. Stupid me.... I remember trying to install this mod a while ago when i new nothing. Made a bit of a mess with it...

Forgot to uninstall your previous uploaded files. So i was thinking that the new files that im going to upload were over writing somthing of the board not previously writen files by you..

What a smuck am I !

Anyhow, thanks for putting up with me.. Will let you know if i have any problems..

1)I installed this mod and set permissions to all group to yes but still no one can set color in ucp.
I remove if enabled line from ucp to try if working.But its showinng user_color like this but not right wording.

Edit: I think you missed out $user->add_lang('mods/user_colour'); this line now its work right... Thankyou

2)Also color didn't change when i first try but before that mod i installed ign mod.I get two line from function_ser.php >>

Code: Select all

global $config, $db, $user, $auth, $template, $phpbb_root_path, $phpEx, $cache;
$cache->destroy('sql', USERS_TABLE);

After adding this code colors changed 100 % perfectly.But i don't know about coding.Will this cause some problem?

Edit:Now please answer to this...

I will be grateful if ya help me out.

My mod only changes the value of default user_colour field in users_table, also update colour of this user in other table fields. So, that shouldn't be any problem.

Hi. Wondering if you can help please. After installing the MOD and trying to change the colour of a user in ACP, I am getting the following error -->

General Error
SQL ERROR [ mysql4 ]

Column 'user_colour_change' cannot be null [1048]

SQL

UPDATE users SET user_colour = '', user_colour_change = NULL WHERE user_id = 783

Double check your edits in,
includes/acp/acp_users.php

Make sure, you made all the edits correct, I recommend using Automod to install.

[brett05]

Thank you very much mtrs. I did have a small error in acp_users.php. I've uploaded the new file and will get my admin to test it.

I've never used Automod. I've just been following the instructions in the install.xml files. I'll have to do a search and find out more about Automod.

Also, don't forget to run install script after the edits
phpBB3/install_usercolour.php
