UBB.Developers Forums UBB.threads 7 Development How Do I? Some Questions...

Hello. This is my first post here and I hope this is in the right forum. I plan on purchasing UBBv6.1.0.2, and I was wondering if anybody could give me a head on some hacks. Well....

How to design the scroll bar....
Who's Online...
Newhack(I believe it's called this)
Custom Smiles
Custom Buttons
Our Newest Registered Member (is it standard or not?)

and any other ones that I might be missing (probably a few). Please explain these to me (what i have to do, how ect.) and if you have any other cool ideas you think i'm missing then just give me a link for a demo explaining it...

Thanks, if this is too much to ask for in a post, feel free to email me at [email protected].... thanks....

*Edit*
BTW, I'm just learning all of this and I appreciate all the help.

Sorry, but this isn't really the right forum. This probably belongs in our New Members Forum, so I'll move it there for any future replies.

As far as "how to do it", just follow the instructions for the hack. As long as you know how to copy and paste, you won't have any problems. Simple as that. All hacks are essentially searching for certain parts of the file and either replacing them with something else or appending new code after them, with the occasional additional file you'll have to upload.

And it is my personal thing that I never really answer the "What hacks should I add?" question. If I have a *specific* suggestion after seeing their forum in action, that's one thing. But it's not my place to tell you what hacks you're supposed to add. It's your forum, be original. Just take a gander through our Beta and Finished mods forum and see if anything sticks out that you think your forum would be improved by. Just like I don't tell you what foods you can and can't like, I don't tell you what hacks you can and can't like either. That's your job.

And with that, I'm moving this to the newbie forum.

Hi Heracross,

How to design scrollbar - do you mean like the one in UBBDev? In Header Insert, insert the following:
And don't forget to change '' to the color
Who's Online also has an autoinstaller file if you have problems installing it - ultimatebb_whos_online_install.cgi and ultimatebb_mod_wordlets_install.cgi if you didn't install Mod Wordlets yet.
Newhack - what is it?
Custom Smilies - it's not a hack, it comes with UBB™ 6.1
Custom Buttons - what do you mean?
Welcome to our newest member - it also comes with UBB 6.1.

Good luck!
