[3.3][RC] Sticky Bar

[HiFiKabin]

Extension Name: Sticky Bar
Author: HiFiKabin and javiexin

Extension Description: As you scroll down the page, the NavBar 'detaches' it self and stays at the top of your browsers screen. You can change the colour of the Sticky NavBar and Text if you wish. You can also replace that appears in the Sticky Bar with an image. This needs to be saved in your root/images directory. You MUST define its size in the ACP, otherwise it will not show.

There is no image resizing, so the image uploaded must be sized beforehand.

The Sticky Bar is shown everywhere EXCEPT FAQ. (thanks to 3Di ) I am still investigating how to implement it correctly on the FAQ and other pages using anchors

The user has the option to disable the Sticky Bar if they wish.

Written in TWIG, automatic RTL switching

The "sticky bar" is on top of a post if you click a message in "for example" notifications.
Is it possible to place the bar(s) above the post?

I find it an annoyance as well, its something I will be working on to improve useability

1.0.0-RC3 gives a with screen on my test board.

And sorry nothing in the error log

[HiFiKabin]

Try disabling, deleting the files and re upload/enable. (I have changed several style files from RC2)

I have it working perfectly on XAMPP locally and on my on line test.

RC4 will be here shortly. Nothing major, just another slight tweak to improve usability

[janus_zonstraal]

Reloaded does not help and still no error log.
I will wait for RC4

It is now only shown on index, forum and topic pages. The reason for this is because of the way the sticky bar 'sticks'

In the first versions the top of the page being viewed was hidden by the bar. (not useful when you goto a post in a topic) Now the goto appears under the sticky bar, BUT ONLY on Index, forum and topic pages. I will be working on a way to make it work on all pages, but as yet I can not get my head around it.

If you want it to appear on all pages (despite the 'hiding' error)

OPEN

hifikabin/stickybar/styles/prosilver/template/event/overall_header_navbar_before.html

FIND

{% if USER_STICKYBAR and S_INDEX or S_VIEWFORUM or S_VIEWTOPIC %}

REPLACE WITH

{% if USER_STICKYBAR %}

SAVE UPLOAD and PURGE CACHE

Hmzz I better wait then, don't like errors

Tried to move the settings link from General/Board Configuration to Extensions using System/Module Management and got a php eval error.

Tracked this down to /ext/hifikabin/stickybar/acp/stickybar_info.php which uses a "\" when it should use a "/":

Code: Select all

return array(
	'filename'	=> '\hifikabin\stickybar\acp\stickybar_module',
	'title'		=> 'ACP_STICKYBAR',
	'modes'		=> array(
	'settings'	=> array('title' => 'ACP_STICKYBAR_SETTINGS', 'auth' => 'ext_hifikabin\stickybar && acl_a_board', 'cat' => array('ACP_STICKYBAR')),
	),
);

should IMO read:

Code: Select all

return array(
	'filename'	=> '\hifikabin\stickybar\acp\stickybar_module',
	'title'		=> 'ACP_STICKYBAR',
	'modes'		=> array(
		'settings'	=> array(
			'title' => 'ACP_STICKYBAR_SETTINGS',
			'auth' => 'ext_hifikabin/stickybar && acl_a_board',
			'cat' => array('ACP_STICKYBAR'),
		),
	),
);

Note 1: Technical explanation - in phpbb 3.2 /includes/functions_module.php line 472 is where the error occurs because at line 415 it looks for '/' but not '\'.

Note 2: hifikabin's headerbanner extension has the same issue.
