Hi, after I install this mod at 6.7.0 I get the following error: Software error: Global symbol "$returner" requires explicit package name at /home/www/web17/html/cgi-bin/ubb_lib.cgi line 2200. Global symbol "$returner" requires explicit package name at /home/www/web17/html/cgi-bin/ubb_lib.cgi line 2202. BEGIN not safe after errors--compilation aborted at /home/www/web17/html/cgi-bin/ubb_lib.cgi line 2591. For help, please send mail to the webmaster ( [email protected]), giving this error message and the time and date of the error. There was a compilation error while loading the UBB.classic libraries and data files: [Tue Dec 30 11:33:15 2003] ultimatebb.cgi: Global symbol "$returner" requires explicit package name at /home/www/web17/html/cgi-bin/ubb_lib.cgi line 2200.

Compilation failed in require at ultimatebb.cgi line 133. Please make sure that you uploaded the CGI and Variables files to the proper directory, permissions are set properly on the files, and that paths in the control panel are set correctly. Do this hack work with 6.7.0 ? thx d-talk

this is because 6.7 uses strict thus the mod will need to be adapted for it 
Do you believe in love at first sight,
or should I walk by again?

I know that this hack is labeled as only being tested on 6.6, but just thought to report an observed behavior of this hack on v6.7 beta release 1. It has to do with the thumbnails. An original posting of a thumbnail works fine. However, if I do an edit of the post, there is an intermittent problem. Most of the time what happens is that the thumbnail is gone, having been replaced by the pure HTML code, which is only displaying as normal text. (I have HTML disallowed on this board.) In the "edit" window, sometimes you will see the "escaped" and surrounding the HTML. Other times not. Whether or not this code appears in the edit window does not correlate to the thumbnail working or not. This is on my test installation and is a new install of v6.7 BR1 that has no other hacks installed at this time.

I posted the fix at your test board, you had changed the number in ubb_lib without also changing it in ubb_lib_posting

Nuts, nuts, nuts, nuts!
My community has been clamoring for me to bring back the advanced code ... so I installed this into my test site and when it *worked*--I really thought nothing of it ...
Then I remembered in the past that *raw code* can sometimes appear when one goes back to edit a post, etc.
Since I needed to rehack my test site to try to figure out where another problem pops up, I gave this a more thorough workout, and sure enough, when I edited, the *raw code* (i.e. html stuff) appeared ...
Is there an *easy fix* to this?
I hope so ... my community would really love to be able to play with the bells & whistles.
Thanks.

if you are willing to be the tester, I could try moving these over to span tags with style attributes. That should remove any issues as no other UBBcode to my knowledge uses span tags

Sure, Ian. I love being a guinea pig! If I can do a *shopping list* ... I'd really like to see the following *advanced* code: - Change Text Color
- Change Text Size
- Change Font
- Underline Text
- Center Text
- Marquee (we are easily amused in my community
  )
---- Anything else would be gravy ... I know you did the thumb tag; to be honest, it'd take me more time to explain what it does than it'd be worth.

I'll add marquee as it's an easy one, but aren't the rest of those aren't in?
(I know that color, size and font are erroneous)

Untested. In ubb_lib.cgi, change $match++ if $_[0] =~ s/([color:)(S+?)(])(.+?)([/color])/<font color="$2" c>$4</font c>/isg;
$match++ if $_[0] =~ s/([center])(.+?)([/center])/<center>$2</center>/isg;
$match++ if $_[0] =~ s/( )(.+?)( )/<font size="$2" s>$4</font s>/isg;
$match++ if $_[0] =~ s/([font:)(.+?)(])(.+?)([/font])/<font face="$2" f>$4</font f>/isg; to $match++ if $_[0] =~ s/([color:)(S+?)(])(.+?)([/color])/<span style="color: $2;">$4</span>/isg;
$match++ if $_[0] =~ s/([center])(.+?)([/center])/<center>$2</center>/isg;
$match++ if $_[0] =~ s/( )(.+?)( )/<span style="font-size: $2px;">$4</span>/isg;
$match++ if $_[0] =~ s/([font:)(.+?)(])(.+?)([/font])/<span style="font-family: $2;">$4</span>/isg; And in ubb_lib_posting.cgi, change $match++ if $message =~ s/(<font color=")(S+)(" c>)(.+?)(</font c>)/[color:$2]$4[/color]/isg;
$match++ if $message =~ s/(<font size=")(.+?)(" s>)(.+?)(</font s>)/ $4 /isg;
$match++ if $message =~ s/(<font face=")(.+?)(" f>)(.+?)(</font f>)/[font:$2]$4[/font]/isg;to $match++ if $message =~ s/(<span style="color: )(.+?)(;">)(.+?)(</span>)/[color:$2]$4[/color]/isg;
$match++ if $message =~ s/(<span style="font-size: )(d{2}|d{1})(px;">)(.+?)(</span>)/ $4 /isg;
$match++ if $message =~ s/(<span style="font-family: )(.+?)(;">)(.+?)(</span>)/[font:$2]$4[/font]/isg; A little note: Since I did it this way, sizes are from 0-99 (in px). Anything under about 8 is unreadable by most. Codes are now: RED
RED
14px size font
[font:Trebuchet Ms]Best. Font. Ever.[/font] If this works for you, it'll give me an excuse to release a new version, which will include ![[Linked Image]](https://ubbdev.com/ubb/upload/00020028/colors.png) for adding those common colors to a post.

Ian, sadly, it didn't work. In a nutshell, it posted like this: quote:
[font:comic sans ms]My favorite font [/font]
This is red

Um, Ian? That's the actual result.
In other words, it printed out
[font:comic sans ms]My favorite font [/font] ... code and all
Same with the color ...
and size ...

Okay, Ian. I see what you're saying. When I click on color, I get this: Will this be blue? If I physically (i.e. manually) change the = sign to :, it works. So, what do I need to do in the code to make it like this when I click on the color icon? Will this be blue? Am I making sense, or am I as clear as mud?!

Okay, I figured it out. I went into the public_common.pl file Found insertAtCaret(document.replier.message, ' ' + "[color:" + thisColo + "]" + thisCtext + "[/color]" + ' '); and changed it to insertAtCaret(document.replier.message, ' ' + "[color:" + thisColo + "]" + thisCtext + "[/color]" + ' '); Found insertAtCaret(document.replier.message, ' ' + " " + thisStext + " " + ' '); and changed to insertAtCaret(document.replier.message, ' ' + " " + thisStext + " " + ' '); Found insertAtCaret(document.replier.message, ' ' + "[font:" + thisFont + "] [/font]" + ' '); and changed to insertAtCaret(document.replier.message, ' ' + "[font:" + thisFont + "] [/font]" + ' '); ---- I'll keep playing with it ... see if it holds up ... Thanks, Ian!

Ian, Sure would like to have the update that makes the colors like you guys have 'em at AlForAdmin.com!!!
Maybe I can figure out where you put that table code with the js actions...

Heh.. No problem Ian. I've got it up and running. I just wanted to tweak it around to use the tables for "colors" and reformat the buttons for the dormat codes to use text links inside a table... Good luck with finals...

I was going to post the span style version until I noticed that you already did something similar.  Ohh...For earlier versions like 6.4 in ubb_lib_posting.cgi wherever you see: Just replace it with: And when quoting or editing posts you won't see the raw code.

OK, I have this hack installed, but want to remove the image button, and only have the thumbnail button there. If I remove the permission to Allow UBB Code Images, will that remove the button, but still allow for the thumnail hack to work (and if I am really lucky, slide the button over to where images is now )? Thanks in advance...

no, that would not work, that would remove all the buttons. You can find the code for the image image in public_common.pl

I found two pieces of code that seemed to be related to this function but have problems pasting it in this post.
Should I remove both? Can I just comment it out somehow instead of removing it just in case I want it back later? By doing this, would it also reposition the "thumb" button to where the "image" button is now?
Thanks again Al.

yes, remove both pieces of code.
It would not realign the buttons, but you can edit the html accordingly

Any chance of getting STRIKETHROUGH implemented into this..? I had it on an old 6.3.1.2 board that I used to run, and it was a very nice feature to have.

allowing flash files to be embedded is a security risk. Real player is just a bad program
