ColorizePost

[Bulakbol]

Added the edits you suggested last night and no errors today.  I think that may have fixed it.  Thanks for a great mod.   

Cool. That's good because I am worried.

Hey JohnnyB, two things:

1) On this piece of code, on the second line (here), I think it should be if ($message..., with a space between if and [/b]($messag[/b]..., shouldn't? It only works when I add a space on my display.template.php manual edit.

Code Select Expand

// Show the post itself, finally!
if($message['member']['theme'] == $settings['theme_id'] || $message['member']['id'] == $context['user']['id'])
{
echo '
</td>
</tr></table>
<hr width="100%" size="1" class="hrcolor" />
<div class="post"', $message['can_modify'] ? ' id="msg_' . $message['id'] . '"' : '', '>';
if (!empty($message['member']['post_color']))
echo '<span style="color: '. $message['member']['post_color']. ';">';
elseif (!empty($message['member']['group_color']))
echo '<span style="color: '. $message['member']['group_color']. ';">';
elseif (!empty($message['member']['post_group_color']))
echo '<span style="color: '. $message['member']['post_group_color']. ';">';
echo $message['body'], (!empty($message['member']['post_color']) || !empty($message['member']['group_color']) || !empty($message['member']['post_group_color']) ? '</span>' : ''), '</div>', $message['can_modify'] ?
'<img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/icons/modify_inline.gif" alt="" align="right" id="modify_button_' . $message['id'] . '" style="cursor: pointer; display: none;" onclick="modify_msg(\'' . $message['id'] . '\', \'' . $context['session_id'] . '\')" />' : '' , '
</td>
</tr>';
}
else

2) Is it possible to add two fields, one for front color and second for back color? I'm using KarlBenson's mod Color & BgColor Clickable BBCode Bar v3.3, that might be useful to integrate..

Hi softcore. I usually use space between the "if" and the opening bracket but I guess I missed that one.  My live site and test site didn't throw any error so I assumed the space does not really matter. Maybe I am wrong but I will stand corrected.   To avoid errors for the next users, I will update the file now. Thank you for letting me know.

Yes, it will be nice if I can integrate Karlbenson's BBCode bar. If I can do the integration, then I will as well integrate to the other colorize mods. I don't know if I can because I know very little about javascript.

thx for this lovely mod!!!!

But with some users the color is not shown? In the profile a color is selected, in the post it is not shown. What can be wrong?

thx Lexi

Hi Lexi. You are welcome. And thank you too for using this mod.

Are you using more than one theme?  The color in their profile willl be used only if the user (reader) is using the same theme as the message' poster. The color will show if they are both using the same theme.

I don't know if i am in the right place to ask. But i want to add text modifications like bold, italics and different fonts and sizes. Is it possible with this mod? What i want is not only to automate the color but also the font, sizes and the bold/italics of the post, to lessen the work of members who post, they will not have to click the icons in the reply page to make the modification.

I'm sorry because i only have limited knowledge about mods and php, I only apply mods thru the package uploader in the admin panel.

Hi angelluver. I wish I could extend the mod to parse bbc but it is limited to colors only. If I will take it out of the body of the code, it will generate a lot of errors and to fix it, I have to rewrite the whole mod. I'm sorry angelluver. 

[angelsluver]

I see. I guess what i want require a lot of work. I will have to forget about it.

Thanks so much JohnnyB.

Hi Lasalle. If you don't want it in post, you have to edit your Display.template.php. This mod, will use the color in their profile in any. If none, it will use the primary group color. If none, it will use the post group color.

Do you like to remove them all? In Display.template.php, find the following block of code and comment out or delete.

Code Select Expand

if($message['member']['theme'] == $settings['theme_id'] || $message['member']['id'] == $context['user']['id'])
{
echo '
</td>
</tr></table>
<hr width="100%" size="1" class="hrcolor" />';
if (!empty($message['member']['post_color']))
echo '<div style="color: '. $message['member']['post_color']. ';" class="post"', $message['can_modify'] ? ' id="msg_' . $message['id'] . '"' : '', '>';
elseif (!empty($message['member']['group_color']))
echo '<div style="color: '. $message['member']['group_color']. ';" class="post"', $message['can_modify'] ? ' id="msg_' . $message['id'] . '"' : '', '>';
elseif (!empty($message['member']['post_group_color']))
echo '<div style="color: '. $message['member']['post_group_color']. ';" class="post"', $message['can_modify'] ? ' id="msg_' . $message['id'] . '"' : '', '>';
echo $message['body'], '</div>', $message['can_modify'] ?
'<img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/icons/modify_inline.gif" alt="" align="right" id="modify_button_' . $message['id'] . '" style="cursor: pointer; display: none;" onclick="modify_msg(\'' . $message['id'] . '\', \'' . $context['session_id'] . '\')" />' : '' , '

</tr>';

I had installed the mod and it worked perfect, but there is only a little problem and I hope you can help me to solve it.

We have different member groups in our forum, with different online colors.
After I have installed the mod, the default font color of the members group changed into
the color of the member group. Is it possible to switch this off?

I really don't know how to explain.
The mod was using automatic the color of the member group for the color font, but
I wont have it. The default color font for the member groups should be the default color of the forum,
cause we wanna allow only different member groups to use this mod.

Hope you can understand what I'm asking for. 

[Bulakbol]

Hi Menu0372. So you want only cetain groups to use the color? We have to change a bit of code. You have to hardcode the group id who can use the color. Tell me more. Right now, the mod will look for color in their profile. If none, it will look for primary group color (admin GM etc.) and if not available, it will use the post group color.  What would you like mo to do for you?

Would you like the mod only to check for members who have colors in their profile? And if none, it will use the default color? I'll get back to you.

[edit]
Display.template.php

Code (look for) Select Expand

$color = !empty($message['member']['post_color']) ? $message['member']['post_color'] : (!empty($message['member']['group_color']) ? $message['member']['group_color'] : (!empty($message['member']['post_group_color']) ? $message['member']['post_group_color'] : ''));

Code (replace) Select Expand

$color = !empty($message['member']['post_color']);

Only those who enter color in their profile will get the color. Meaning, if you don't give them permission, they can't enter a color. No color, mod will use the default one.

That's exactly what I want to have.
As long the member hasn't add a color code in the profile, the color font of his/her
postings should be the default color font of the forum and not of the member group
the member is.
After I had installed the mod, the text in my postings were red, cause the color of
my group "Administrator" is red, as in most of the forums. I hadn't add a color code
in my profile. To be honest when I saw this I was shocked.

So I have to change some codes to the codes you showed? Is this correct?

Display.template.php

$color = !empty($message['member']['post_color']) ? $message['member']['post_color'] :   (!empty($message['member']['group_color']) ? $message['member']['group_color'] : (!empty($message['member']['post_group_color']) ? $message['member']['post_group_color'] : ''));

Code (replace) Select Expand

$color = !empty($message['member']['post_color']);

Yes Menu0372. Find the long line and replace it with the short one. Let me know how it goes. It it doesn't work (it should work) then we'll use different approach.

[Manu.G]

Works perfect 

JohnyB, thanks for your quick help!!!

[Bulakbol]

awww are you okay now? You're welcome. Thank you too for using this mod. 

BTW, recent post and profile page use the same logic, so if you want to edit them too, you can search for the variable $color and replace with the code I gave you. Recent.template.php and Profile.template.php. If you need assistance, just post here.
