Dont show av/sig forum hack

Posted: Fri May 25, 2007 7:53 pm

I am trying to get this phpbb hack modified to work with RN2.10
http://www.phpbbhacks.com/download/4488

I think I made the changes correctly when trying to convert it to phpnuke format. Then I was getting a sql error saying a table did not exist. I think I got that fixed since that error ceased, but the icons to change execute the mod don't show up anywhere.

I don't know php well enough to figure out what I did wrong.

If someone could look at this hack I would appreciate it. Alternatively, if someone know where to get the hack Raven uses to only show the avatar/sig once per thread I would prefer to use that.

Thanks

Code:




CREATE TABLE phpbb_ignoresigav (


  user_id mediumint(9) NOT NULL default '0',


  hid_id mediumint(9) NOT NULL default '0'


) TYPE=MyISAM;

is the table that it is trying to generate

My suggestion is to turn it into a Nuke-forum name.. ala
Rename phpbb_ignoresigav to nuke_bbignoresignav

In includes/constants.php, you also need to rename it there.

I already tried this:

Code:




CREATE TABLE nuke_ignoresigav ( 


  user_id mediumint(9) NOT NULL default '0', 


  hid_id mediumint(9) NOT NULL default '0' 


) TYPE=MyISAM

and changed includes/constants.php entry to:

Code:




define('HIDE_TABLE', $prefix.'_ignoresigav');

Placing the icons here:

Quote:

/modules/Forums/templates/subSilver/images/icon_hide.gif
/modules/Forums/templates/subSilver/images/icon_unhide.gif

This combination doesn't seem to be working - supposed to show an icon to ignore sig/av below each post.

Oh well, I'll keep at it, but thanks for looking at it, Evaders99

Edit: This may require modifications at the theme level as all the other icons at the bottom of each post seem to be stored in the themes/themename/images/lang_english folder. I fear this is beyond me.

I found a hack that only allows the signature once per topic. Now I just have to figure out how to make something like this work for the avatars.

Code:

## MOD Title: Signature once per page


## MOD Author: LK + Agnostik for the minor conversion


## MOD Description: Signatures only appear once per topic page.

#





$user_sig = ( $postrow[$i]['enable_sig'] && $postrow[$i]['user_sig'] != '' && $board_config['allow_sig'] && !$signature[$poster_id]) ? $postrow[$i]['user_sig'] : '';








#

#





$user_sig = '<br />----------------<br />' . str_replace("\n", "\n<br />\n", $user_sig);

$signature[$poster_id] = 1;

Thanks for this hack Ezekiel. I will try it soon.

I wonder if this will strip out signatures in old posts. I hope so in order to reduce the size of my database.

I don't think the signatures are stored with the posts. Have you ever noticed that when you change your signature all your old posts suddenly have the new signature?
