Hey, how about updating Jimbo's Hack to 6.0!
Here's the Hack:
---------------------------
Here's the code, which needs to be inserted in both ubb_library2.pl and ubbmisc.cgi:
code:
Ok, now you're done with the code-hacking... the only thing left to do is to create a file called title-list.file in your Members directory, and enter membernames and special titles in it like so:
code:
That's it! Now all you have to do to give a member a special title is to add a line to your new title-list.file with the member's name (must be exact!), a |!!| as a separator, and the special title you wish to use immediately following.
Your title-list2.file should also be placed in the Members area and is formatted similarly to the title-list.file, except that the first field is post count instead of user name. This is what I have in my own:
code:
So anyone with more than zero posts is a Newbie, more than 10 posts is a Neophyte, more than 30 is a Regular, and more than 50 is a Veteran. You can enter in as many levels as you want - but you need to be sure that you've got them in numeric order! If you don't have the post count titles in numeric order in your title-list2.file, then you will get incorrect results.
