Membergroup Title Color

[SychO]

Greetings,

in SMF the member groups are not colored with the same color set in the field "Online List Color"

it's always a normal color, that's why i use HTML in membergroups Title ! and i know that it's bad and won't be good once i update from 2.0.10 to 2.0.11

so i need your help adding a code in Display.template.php and Display.php , so that the membergroup title would be the same as the color set in the Online list color field when managing the membergroups !

I don't have that much knowledge in PHP so anyone's help please ?

regards.

Even the username shouldn't have a different color in Display.template.php. Are you using a MOD for that?

[SychO]

yes it's a mod <SimpleColorizer> don't worry it's 100% safe

[margarett]

I was asking because it might be possible to just use the information already fetched by the MOD to produce the result you want

The first thing I would advise you to do is to ask the MOD support topic if what you want to do is possible

[SychO]

well i tried actually with the minimum knowledge i have in PHP :3 but didn't go really far

however i don't like asking in mod supports since you don't really get an answer :3

thanks anyways mate !

[SychO]

Well can anyone at least tell me how i can request the poster's group id ?

and then show it as a class and then i'll just add some css settings

thank you

I'm using the Simple Colorizer mod to accomplish what the OP wants (assuming I understand his post) and it works perfectly!

http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=3067

Even better, it doesn't even modify SMF's code. It works by 100% integration hooks.

I don't think you understand it right
Simple Colorizer... Colorizes the username. The user wants to colorize the membergroup too.

Picky, picky. 

[SychO]

Well what i mean is that i want to some how colorize the membergroup title with it's online list color

[All Colours Sam]

It is possible to colorize the membergroup using that mod but it requires at least two changes, one is to include the user ID on the <li> tag that displays the membergroup

On the default theme that part looks like this:

<li class="membergroup">', $message['member']['group'], '</li>';

Change it to this:

<li class="membergroup" data-memberID="' . $message['member']['id'] . '">', $message['member']['group'], '</li>';

Then open your Sources/Subs-SimpleColorizer.php file and look for this:

Code Select Expand

if (($user_colors = sc_loadColors($user_ids)) !== false)
foreach ($user_colors as $user_id => $user_color)
$buffer = preg_replace(str_replace('{$user_id}', $user_id, $regex[1]), '$1 style="color: ' . $user_color . ';"', $buffer);

And change it to this:

Code Select Expand

if (($user_colors = sc_loadColors($user_ids)) !== false)
foreach ($user_colors as $user_id => $user_color)
{
$buffer = preg_replace(str_replace('{$user_id}', $user_id, $regex[1]), '$1 style="color: ' . $user_color . ';"', $buffer);

// Membergroups too!
$buffer = preg_replace(str_replace('{$user_id}', $user_id, 'data-memberID="{$user_id}"'), '$1 style="color: ' . $user_color . ';"', $buffer);
}


Now this is totally untested so use it on a test site or at least made backups of your files before attempting this.

[SychO]

Yea there seems to be a problem with the code you made

the page stays blank !

and thnx for you're help mate ! i really appreciate it

[SychO]

or perhaps if someone could show me how i can make the poster 's group ID show

so i can show it as a class and then set some css

it would be good

Looking at the code in the file, seems like Suki left out the regex delimiters.

In the file /Sources/Subs-SimpleColorizer.php, search:

Code Select Expand

foreach ($user_colors as $user_id => $user_color)
$buffer = preg_replace(str_replace('{$user_id}', $user_id, $regex[1]), '$1 style="color: ' . $user_color . ';"', $buffer);
And replace with:

Code Select Expand

foreach ($user_colors as $user_id => $user_color)
{
$buffer = preg_replace(str_replace('{$user_id}', $user_id, $regex[1]), '$1 style="color: ' . $user_color . ';"', $buffer);

// Membergroups too!
//$buffer = preg_replace(str_replace('{$user_id}', $user_id, '~data-memberID="{$user_id}"~'), '$1 style="color: ' . $user_color . ';"', $buffer);
}


In /Themes/your_theme/Display.template.php, search:

Code Select Expand

<li class="membergroup">', $message['member']['group'], '</li>';
And replace with:

Code Select Expand

<li class="membergroup" data-memberID="', $message['member']['id'], '">', $message['member']['group'], '</li>';

[SychO]

hmm Not working for some reason mate ! :/

You need to check the PHP error_log file and teh SMF error log to see if it says something, I tested the code in my own forum and that's why I see the delimiters thing.

[SychO]

Here are the errors SMF Detected :

Invalid argument supplied for foreach()
