Ok, I can't seem to find the search line in cp_vars_style_core.pl for the following:

Quote
quote:

##############################
# open cp_vars_style_core.pl #
##############################

###############
# search for: #
###############

&ColorRow("Horizontal Rule Color", "", "hr_color", "#FFFFFF", "yes");

##############
# add below: #
##############

&ColorRow("New Private Message Color", "", "new_pm_color", "#FFFFFF", "yes");
Any advice? I can't find any reference to Horizontal Rule Color anywhere in cp_vars_style_core.pl, period.

(We're running 6.3.1.)

Hack seems to be working fine for me with one exception. The first time I visit my UBB is usually at the forum summary page which is where the notification is displayed (I haven't hacked the other "public" templates yet). I've found that it always displays zero messages even if there are new messages in my inbox. If I go view a post on the board and return to the forum summary then it correctly displays the number of messages. Anyone have any ideas why it doesn't work the first time? Did I screw up somewhere or is this a known bug/behavior? I was evaluating the hack on the forum summary only before integrating it with the rest of the public templates and this is the only issue I've had so far. Anyone?

I think thats just how it works. I have a meta refresh on my forum summary, so after it refreshes, users get notified of new PM. Happens with cache on and off.

This mod keeps telling their is a new PM even when the user has read the PM, the pop up keeps showing up over and over, Is there a way to fix this?

Here is what I did so I could edit the setting in styles:

code:
[qb]
Code
 
##############################
# open cp_vars_style_core.pl #
##############################

###############
# search for: #
###############

&AlternateColors; &ColorRow($vars_wordlets_cp{vars_stylecore_hr}, "", "hr_color", $vars_style_cp{AltColumnColorCurrent}, "yes");

##############
# add below: #
##############

&AlternateColors; &ColorRow($vars_wordlets_cp{vars_stylecore_npmc}, "", "new_pm_color", $vars_style_cp{AltColumnColorCurrent}, "yes");

##############################
# open vars_wordlets_cp.cgi #
##############################

###############
# search for: #
###############

q!vars_stylecore_hr! => q!Horizontal Rule Color!,

##############
# add below: #
##############

q!vars_stylecore_npmc! => q!New Private Message Color!,

[/qb]
Close up shop and your done. However, this only changes the number's color. Any quick coders out there who can tell me how to have it change the color for the message "New Private Message in..."?

I read that Variables had a wav sound instead of the popup, could someone send that to me?

Also in the profile options to turn popup on and off there is no text. How can I fix that? There were no vars_worldet additions in the document.

The mod does work just fine on my 6.3.1.1, thanks for this handy feature.

Never mind about the vars_worldet. I thought each user was able to turn the popup notify on/off in profile, which you can't, and found out what was the problem.

I would still prefer to have the wav play instead of the popup so if someone could send me that code change I would greatly appreciate it.

Has anyone else noticed that you do not get notified of your PM until after you refresh ultimatebb.cgi or come back to it a second time?

Is there a fix for that?

I have always experienced this problem and decided to stop using this hack because of it.

Hello! I want to now if there is a way when users are not logged in to show this message "Only registered people can have pms"
besides of "No unread messages" = "0 Nem private message"
PS: I´ve changed the Texts.

Take a look at my board: http://cshock.ibboards.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi

(I haven't had the chance to try this mod since the link is down)

to add it to the top of the page under login you add it:

In public_forum_summary.pl (template) you'd add the code under:

$show_logout

(not sure of what all to add since I hadn't tweaked with this code and the page is down. I found it quite odd that the person who ported the hack's board was having errors with the pm box (page errors) when i went to his page)...

If you want you can email me this mod [email protected] and i'll take a look at it.

Hi,

I held off trying this hack for a long while as it seemed to be "hit or miss" to describe it at best.

Finally the other day I told the plunge, downloaded the multihack file and installed in onto my 6.3.1.1 board (everything all backed up of course! ;-) ).

Anyway, something unusual happens that I can't see described anywhere else here: Whilst the mod works perfectly, when anybody logs in, or whilst they are logged in the following line appears at the top of the screen:

Quote
quote:

Set-Cookie: pms2452260.2208=0; path=/; expires=Fri, 08-Oct-2004 21:54:49 GMT Date: Wed, 09 Oct 2002 21:54:49 GMT Charset: 0 TEXT/HTML Content-Type: text/html
Now this line is at the very top, just before the grahic for my BB loads.

The bulletin boards loads fine, and any new PM are displayed in the correct area, and onced clicked goes to the "in box".

However throught all of this, the above line still appears at the top of the page.

As soon as I click the logout button - voila, it's gone?

Is there any reason why I should be seeing cookie information on my webpages?

(As I said, I used the multihack file, and it reports a 100% success with the hacking. The only other hacks I have on, are the last reply hack and sticky threads.)

Thanks for any input!

Is the issue with the popup already fixed?

I installed the hack on my 6.3.1.1 board and it works perfect except for:

the pm color; the search string doesn't match
the popup.. doesn't show.. although i have enabled it with my CP addon..

could it be that it has something to do with the not adding colors for the new private message?

thnx in advance!

I got the pop-up thing to work! Its awesome.

Only problem is, if they dont read their new message, everytime they go back to the forum summary, it shows the pop-up again until they read it.

Any fix for this?!

You dont have a Popup Ad blocker running on your system do you ? Zonealarm and some other firewall programs have these built in as well.

Yes it would be possible, probably not that hard to do, but to my knowledge it hasn't been done.

Where the heck is this control panel mod file at? I'd like to enable the pop up window to force people to start reading their PMs.

I see a problem here...

The directions say to find this...



##############################
# open cp_vars_style_core.pl #
##############################

###############
# search for: #
###############

&ColorRow("Horizontal Rule Color", "", "hr_color", "#FFFFFF", "yes");

------------------------------------------------

This is the closest thing I can find:



&AlternateColors; &ColorRow($vars_wordlets_cp{vars_stylecore_hr}, "", "hr_color", $vars_style_cp{AltColumnColorCurrent}, "yes");



-------------------------------------------------

What should I do???

I get the You did not complete all fields error after I try to update my style template

They are the same line, so what you have found is correct, its just the 2nd one is wordletized, while the 1st is not.
But they are infact the same thing basically.
