LK Admin / Code Breaker Registered: 03/24/01 Posts: 7396 Add to del.icio.us Digg it	Thanks The birthday avatar shouldn't make the board any slower, since it only checks the member profile (which is open in any case) and the calendar variable file (you shouldn't notice that, since dozens of other files are also opened so one more doesn't make any difference). Upgrading to Threads: a next generation UBB is planned to be released soon, so if I were you I would wait, unless the performance issue is really urgent. _________________________ My Hacks Page (will be back with UBB 7!)

Yeah, I can wait. I've thought about other software (i.e. not InfoPop/Groupee) but the thing is, I've been using UBB since around 2000. (well, June 2000 to be precise) I've moved my forum onto a fair few servers during that time, and I know the software well. By that, I don't mean coding, but general operations, file systems... so I feel pretty secure if I need to install a backup or move to another server. In other words, UBB feels like home to me, so yeah, it'll be worth waiting. The only reason I haven't already upgraded to UBB.Threads is coz it looks a bit basic. (i.e the interface) UBB.Classic looks a lot better.

Looks like they registered under one birthday and edited it later to their actual birthday _________________________ - Allen - What Drives You?

RoxSeibert Member Registered: 02/20/03 Posts: 178 Loc: highspire, pa	insignificant buglet report... it seems that maybe if public display name has an apostrophe in it, the user's age is shown as 2 when their birthday rolls around http://dragboatalley.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=calendar;date=2453705#events _________________________ ~=Rox http://dragboatalley.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi dangerously inspired by ubbdev, but i still absolutely HATE perl.

LK Admin / Code Breaker Registered: 03/24/01 Posts: 7396	Yes, it should work for 6.7.2. Allen/Rox, I missed your post. The code seems fine actually, I'll check it out soon. The current code is (do_add_event_birthday): Code: my $descs = "$_[1]\|!!\|$_[0]\|!!\|$_[2]"; $descs =~ s/'/'/isg; It should replace all the apostrophes with "'". _________________________ My Hacks Page (will be back with UBB 7!)

I've actually kinda, sorta figured out another tweak to LK's mod ... based on code from last year ... unfortunately, in my notes, I don't have the individual who created the code for this. Sorry about that. On the front page of my board, I like to have the calendar listed--and I like to have it at the top--so that when people come to my site, they can see if anything special is happening that day. Using last year's code and playing around a bit, I was able to get it to "work." Here's what I did: In public_forum_summary.pl find Code: $calendar Delete it (it only appears once) ---- Also in public_forum_summary.pl find Code: $Top .= "</tr>$pntf_locations[1]"; return ($Top); } # end Normal_Table_Top before the above code, add Code: $Top .= $calendar; ----- In ubb_forum_summary.cgi find Code: $TBT <tr> <td bgcolor="$vars_style{AltColumnColor1}" valign="top" align="left"> <font size="1" face="$vars_style{FontFace}">$calendar$linebreak$birthdays </font> </td> </tr> $TBB replace it with Code: <tr bgcolor="$vars_style{CategoryStripColor}"> <td colspan="6"> <a href="$vars_config{CGIURL}/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=calendar"> <font size="$vars_style{TextSize}" face="$vars_style{FontFace}" color="$vars_style{CategoryStripTextColor}"> <b>$vars_wordlets_calendar{calendar}</b> </a> </font> </td> </tr><tr> <td bgcolor="$vars_style{AltColumnColor1}" valign="top" align="left"> <img src="$vars_config{NonCGIURL}/calendarfs.gif" alt="" /> </td> <td bgcolor="$vars_style{AltColumnColor1}" valign="top" align="left" colspan="6"> <font size="$vars_style{TextSize}" face="$vars_style{FontFace}"> $calendar </font> </td> </tr> ---- Edit to add: you also need to clear the cache ------- It seems to be working w/out problems ( knock on wood) ... again, I cannot take credit for this add-on to the calendar mod ... I'm not sure who created this code. I just tried this and its not working for me I just would like to add it to my main forum page

n00b here.

I have a question.
I got to editing the ubb_new_topic.cgi
Where the instructions ask to find:

Code:

	# show signature?
	if (($vars_display{AllowSignature} eq 'YES') && (($username && ($username ne '')) &#0124;&#0124; ($vars_display{RequireLoginPosts} eq "NO"))) {
		$show_sig = qq(
<input type="checkbox" name="Signature" id="Signature" value="yes" checked="checked" /> $vars_wordlets{show_signature});
	}

All I can find in my ubb_new_topic.cgi is:

Code:

# show signature?
	if (($vars_display{AllowSignature} eq 'YES') && ($username ne '')) {
		my $checked = $user_prefs->{check_nosig} ? "" : qq~checked="checked"~;
		$show_sig = qq(
<input type="checkbox" name="Signature" id="Signature" value="yes" $checked /> $vars_wordlets{show_signature});
	}

Any thoughts?
Can I just preform the "Add below:" instructions below what I have in my ubb_new_topic.cgi?

BTW I am running UBBClassic 6.7.2
