UBB.Developers Forums UBB.classic V6.4 - 6.7 Modifications Forum Design Integration Compact Footers - version 1.21 Final

Actually.. It only took me 12 minutes to install Compact Headers [full] .. its just copying and pasting and you really dont have to search for anything because it is all at the top of each template and most of each thing is short..

Version 1.2 has been released.

Check the original topic for details.

ok for the above post i re-edited my forum_page.pl and put the old Footers 1.1 hack back for that file and it looks much better but now i came across the hop to box problem again

i want it OUT
i hate it

i tried what M2sc-com said and how to take it out but it didnt work...i deleted it from the page he said but it was still there i cleared the cache and it was still there
plz help i want the hop to box out!!!!!

in public_forum_page.pl


Find and delete:

$vars_wordlets{hop_to} $hop_to_options

I will take a look at the forum_page problem tonight when I get home. The hop to box was a very quick fix, and quite honestly I didn't do much testing on it. It looked fine on my test board, so I called it good. I will go back in tonight and redo it to make it correct.

Also, tonight I'll be updating the full distribution file to contain two copies of topic_page.pl - one with Hop To, one without it. So wait till tonight when I get home from work, and I will get the problems fixed asap.

ok the template files u are giving for d/l with both compact header and footer installed is what version of ubb...
is it ubb 6.04e or something lower

They are from 6.04F.

In every version since 6.03, there have barely been any changes to the templates, so for the most part any files from any of the versions that fall within that range are interchangeable with other versions. If you are seriously concerned with incompatibility, just upgrade to the latest version before you install them.

---Skorpion

ok i kinda fixed the hop to box in the forum_page.pl template
so it doesnt extend out of the original size of my ubb and now it looks nice...and i want to say
Skorpion, this is a great hack

Alright, Compact Footers has been updated to version 1.21. This is just a very quick update that should fix any problems associated with the Hop To box in forum_page.

To upgrade, you'll need to just replace the entire $page_bottom subroutine in public_forum_page.pl. (Everything from my $page_bottom = qq~ to ~; inclusively.)

I've also updated the template distribution file to include two forum_page versions: one with Hop To, and one without it. Check the readme for more info. If you downloaded the template distro file within the last 24 hours, just redownload it and recopy public_forum_page.pl or the no-hop-to version (be sure to read the readme!!).

Hope this fixes the problem. Lemme know if there are still bugs.

i am tring to get the rate topic to go along side the Hop to drop down box heres what i think is right but i may be wrong let me know?

Best way to find out is to try it.

Have a beer on me

Looks like you did something wrong in public_topic_page. Cuz it all looks fine in other views.

What do you mean sort out the topic/reply buttons?

---Skorpion

Erm... i guess you ain't got a Mac Skorpion...

When browsing the forum on a Mac, both the 'new topic' and 'reply' buttons are on top of each other and the are out of allienment. Would youlike to tell me wich section or templete i need to edit to correct this problem? Other than that... this crack is really kewl!

The buttons appear to be fine on the PC version, i wonder why....

Thanks again

It already contains the NOWRAP attribute in the table cell, which is *supposed* to keep the cell from wrapping down, as it apparently is doing for you.

It could possibly be that Mac browser simply doesn't support the NOWRAP attribute, which is something I have no control over.

The only thing I can think of, is go into public_topic_page, and removing NOWRAP from the TD tag, and adding ... tags just inside the cell that contains the buttons (ie.

Zip File Compact Footer and Header
work not in 6.0f.

Thunder33

The zip file was made from 6.04F templates. It does work.

If you'll be a little bit more specific as to the problem you're having, I'll be more than happy to try to help solve it.

---Skorpion

I've got a problem with this one. I also installed the "rate topic" hack, so the code in public_topic_page.pl looks a bit different, and i can't get this hack done. Anyone?

look a couple of posts above i think someone tried to solve the problem of the rate topic

got it, thanks

Is there a way to add UBB CPU Cycle to this so you dont have to modify all the files?

Skorp - Very nice job on the templates and of course, the inspiring se7enet!

Just wanted to let you know that the instructions for public_topic_page.pl are wrong (looks like a typo)

just fyi

it currently says to replace the code with this
Code removed by Skorpion to keep page layout intact.

Again Just FYI - They are correct in your templates download (of course)

Not that it really matters since 6.1 is just around the corner :raisetheroof:

Thanks for the heads up, freakscene! Allen showed me another error in Compact Headers too, so I'll try to get those two fixed tonight. (Since I'm not planning on spending another six hours on YourStyle tonight, I might have a chance at actually getting some other work done! :D)

Thanks for the kind words on Se7enet too! Man, I can't wait for 6.1 (and Se7enet 2.0!)

---Skorpion

Yea that was a long night. Especially with AO[hel]L.

i installed it bt it messes up and skorp your links in the database for the compact footers dont work at all besides the txt file !!!!


i have the cpu thing already istnall could that mess it up !

Due to Code Red attacking one of the upstream providers for my host( ), my site is essentially down for right now. The links in the database are right, but they won't work until the site goes back up.

---Skorpion

How can i view a demo???
Can Anybody here send it to me????

do not provide support to NHThang!! He is running a pirated UBB. How do i know? Go check se7enet and see for yourself, there he tried to get jamin to send him this very hack and he himself said that he didnt have a license.

http://www.se7enet.com/site/cgi/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=8;t=000031 is the direct link.

The place you download them from seems to be gone.

Click on 'Hacks' in Jamin's signature.

DEMO!?

edit: sorry, i didn't read all posts

Hmmm can't download it anymore, all files missing.

We updated our modspace last night, try:

https://www.ubbdev.com/columns/jamin/mods.html

Allen, that link doesn't have the new 6.2 versions, and it seems that the URL that Jamin uses is no longer existant..

There is no 6.2 version.

---Jamin

Sorry.. My bad..

Are we ever going to see this ported to 630??
