Team Image

New Features:
No CP update needed

Only need to upload 2 gifs and the .pl template

No more Rebuild Staff Index! *happy dance* My only problem is the use of the actual Admin title for the authority list and not a wordlet like before. The admin at GR likes to add stars and the such and those would mess up the beautful lines

Nice hack.... is there a way to break this table away from the main one? I've been playing with it, but I haven't found a fix yet.

find:

Code

	my $Bottom = qq~
<tr bgcolor="$vars_style{CategoryStripColor}">
<td colspan="$ColSpan">
<font size="$vars_style{TextSize}" color="$vars_style{CategoryStripTextColor}" face="$vars_style{FontFace}"><b>
<a href="$vars_config{CGIURL}/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=authority">$vars_wordlets{auth_list}</a></b></font>

REPLACE WITH:

Code

	my $Bottom = qq~$TBB


$TBT
<tr bgcolor="$vars_style{CategoryStripColor}">
<td colspan="$ColSpan">
<font size="$vars_style{TextSize}" color="$vars_style{CategoryStripTextColor}" face="$vars_style{FontFace}"><b>
<a href="$vars_config{CGIURL}/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=authority">$vars_wordlets{auth_list}</a></b></font>

that that code in public_forum_summary.pl

Thanks for the help... it's been AGES since I worked on UBB code.

Added new download link for 6.7 Version.

The only new thing is that it's spider friendly.

great work brett

grrr, no good day to build in hacks it seems...

Now I get an error by building in this hack into 6.7:

syntax error at CGIPath/ubb_lib_posting.cgi line 1304, near " $user_profile[8]

CGIPath/ubb_lib_posting.cgi has too many errors.

rehack ubb_lib_posting.cgi

I have rehacked it, but I get the same error!

In ubb_lib_posting.cgi Find:
========================================

unless (exists($rate_list{$u})) {

========================================
ABOVE that paste:
========================================

$linkname .= ($user_profile[8] =~ m/^(Administrator|(Mega)?Moderator)$/) ?
qq~

~
: "";

But this don't work :-(

I can confirm that this step doesn't work. I didn't notice it because I don't use the icon next to the name

And now, what can I do...?

wait about 12 hours for me to get back from school, or hope that Brett can help you

Ok,

at 6.7.0 Betarelease1 it worked, but not at 6.7.0

Hi,

have nobody an idea?

Sorry about that. I have been busy with school/work, but i will be able to get this back going tonight.

I apologize about the wait there. Turns out the update i did contained a typo.

6.7 zip file updated, only changes include ubb_lib_posting.cgi.

Thank you very much Brett!!!

Hi Brett can you upload this hack again? The downloadlink is brocken...

Thanks
