What is it? A complete makeover for UBB Threads. Inactive hyperlinks are not displayed and many tables have been removed to make adding graphics to your site look better. <br /> <br />How do I install it? <br /> <br />1) Backup your files first! Copy all of the template in the included zip file to your ubbthreads/templates/default directory. <br /> <br />Where can I see an example? Da Forum -keep in mind that I've modified my site to add graphics (those mods are also posted in this forum). <br /> <br />10 December 03: Version 1.0 released. <br />12 December 03: Added the correct version of ubbt_icon_select.tmpl <br />16 December 03: Fixed a colspan error in myhome.tmpl <br />28 December 03: Fixed an error in the ubbt_instant_ubbcode.tmpl file. <br />29 December 03: Stole an idea from Josh and moved the my Home and New User links in the ubbt_registerednav.tmpl and ubbt_unregisterednav.tmpl files <img src="http://www.ubbdev.com/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> <br />01 Jan 04: Fixed a bug that disabled post management in the showflat.tmpl and the showthreaded.tmpl files. <br />01 Jan 04: Fixed missing $calevent variable in showflat.tmpl and showthreaded.tmpl -must have more coffee... <br />05 Jan 04: Changed the tbopen.tmpl and tbclose.tmpl templates (they were the table wrappers that I use on my site to hold graphics). <br />08 Jan 04: Fixed a bug in the ubbt_unregisterednav.tmpl file (no . after the home link). Thanks Allen! <br />10 Jan 04: Fixed a possible bug in the editbasic.tmpl file. Thanks Allen!

I had a problem with the ubbt_icon_select.tmpl file but I fixed it and re-uploaded the zip file before anyone had downloaded it. The correct template is the one that's in the /templates/alternate directory that comes with Threads.<br /><br />I'll veryfy that the zip file has the correct template.

There was a bug in the ubbt_icon_select.tmpl file that would cause a blank icon to get selected instead of the default. If you've already downloaded the zip file just replace the ubbt_icon_select.tmpl file with the standard one that comes in the /ubbthreads/templates/alternate directory. I'll see if one of the other mods can help me squash the bug...

How do I insert the quick reply hack V5.0 in this facelist ? It is to hard for me to modify showflat and showthread. Is there a finished version avaible for this ?

I just looked at those two templates. You should have no problem at all finding where to insert the quick reply mod in those templates.<br /><br />In showthreaded.tmpl where the compact mod starts is where it goes <img src="http://www.ubbdev.com/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /><br /><br />and in showflat.tmpl the code to find is the same your looking for $pageprint right <img src="http://www.ubbdev.com/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> That table closed and then quick reply gets inserted.

I will try it tommorow again. Maybe its to late and I can't see where. Its about 2 O'clock ... <br /><br />Dalantech, can you post the part from your .css for the tbopen.tmpl ? <br />Thats: tlc, topleft, top, topright, trc, left, middle<br /><br />It's just for an example to see what do you do with it and what do you set in it. It should a base for my to try my own try's. Tjhanks for this great work.

Zarzal in the forum design forum there is the tablewrappers mod where you can download the files you need and see exactly how the classes used in the tablewrappers work.

I think I found an error in one of the template files: <br />ubbt_instant_ubbcode.tmpl <br /> <br />The problem is that the options to for poll start, poll option, and poll end are all still there in a row. Polls now don't use those tags. You have to check the box above submit that says add a poll to this post. At least I think it's a problem from these templates because this is the set I use. I fixed this problem by replacing that template w/ the stock version from Infopop.

Links that go nowhere <img src="http://www.ubbdev.com/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> Kinda like in the stock versions the edit reply post etc that guest have no hyperlink attached too.

[]donJulio said:<br />What are dead hyperlinks anyways? [/]<br /><br />Normally Threads displays the text of a link even if you don't have the right to use it. So, for example, the Reply link text will be visible even if the hyperlink behind it isn't available. I don't like the way it looks, so I scripted them completely out if you don't have the right to use them.<br /><br />A prime example is the articles at my site -when I view it I see an edit, reply, and quote link because I've got admin rights. Normal users won't see any links at all since I don't allow anyone other than moderators and admins to edit, reply, or quote in an article.

Do you be sure to upload the correct .zip file ? seems to be the old one with both files from 00:49 and no change in it.

Thanks to drkknght for spotting this one: I had my modified tbopen.tmpl and tbclose.tmpl files in Facelift (I have mine set up for graphics). I've replaced them with the stock templates and updated the zip file attached to the first post.

I just updated my profile on Da LAN Tech: What error are you getting / what are the symptoms? For Facelift I just pulled out some table wrappers so that there were fewer tables being generated, but none of the other original data was touched in that file...

When I would try to update the page with username/password/avatar stuff it would say:<br /><br />"it does not appear that this was submitted from the proper place" or something like that.<br /><br />I uploaded the editbasic template and editbasic/changebasic php files a few times without improvements. It finally worked again when I went back to the base editbasic template file. <img src="http://www.ubbdev.com/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
