It's possible, all you need to do is create those extra tables and move variables. (Some may need editing)

oops sorry.. im still quite new at this kind of stuff.. but where can i find the where the name variable, post variables etc. are in this code?
Posted By: Lord Dexter Re: Modifying Postbits... - 07/13/2002 8:44 AM
Find the variable $show_public_name. Around there is all the code for the Author Coloum, and thats where this code should go.
Posted By: tommychi Re: Modifying Postbits... - 07/13/2002 9:19 AM
Ohhhh... hmmm i found it but what extra code should i enter to make the postbit look all cool like the link i gave?
Posted By: Lord Dexter Re: Modifying Postbits... - 07/13/2002 2:00 PM
I didn't see no link. smirk
Posted By: Lord Dexter Re: Modifying Postbits... - 07/13/2002 2:06 PM
In ubb_lib_posting.cgi find:

my $max_smilies = 8;

Change the 8 to the number you want to allow. I checked this in 6.3.0.1 because thats the version you run.

what code do you mean?
Posted By: Lord Dexter Re: Modifying Postbits... - 07/14/2002 4:25 AM
What? The code thats around that variable is where you will most likely add the code.
