Title: How to get rid of the Hello
Post by: Tidea on September 03, 2007, 05:10:27 PM
Hi guys, I just installed SMF, and there's one thing that's annoying me.  There's the "hello" up on top, below the website name, and I was wondering if there's a way to edit it, or delete it overall.

Thanks

If you want it to just show your username you can erase the following line.. in themes/yourtheme/languages/index.english.php


$txt['hello_member_ndt'] = 'Hello';

or change the 'Hello' to what you want. :)

It worked fine on my test forum so it just said "Shadow82x" on the top with no hello. Mind posting your themes/yourtheme/languages/index.english.php

Attach it or use code tags please. :)

Here's the sample.


// Escape any single quotes in here twice.. 'it\'s' -> 'it\\\'s'.
$txt['preview_title'] = 'Preview post';
$txt['preview_fetch'] = 'Fetching preview...';
$txt['preview_new'] = 'New message';
$txt['error_while_submitting'] = 'The following error or errors occurred while posting this message:';

$txt['split_selected_posts'] = 'Selected posts';
$txt['split_selected_posts_desc'] = 'The posts below will form a new topic after splitting.';
$txt['split_reset_selection'] = 'reset selection';

$txt['modify_cancel'] = 'Cancel';
$txt['mark_read_short'] = 'Mark Read';

$txt['pm_short'] = 'My Messages';
$txt['hello_member_ndt'] = 'Vision of the Future';

$txt['ajax_in_progress'] = 'Loading...';

?>

That should work are you sure you saved/reloaded it. It worked fine on my test site.

ok, nm, it's working now.  I had my admin at a blank name.  hehe :P.

Is there a way to change what's written at the top?  Like right now it's at project-tideas.com

I'm glad you got that solved - what text are you talking for there?
Title: Re: How to get rid of the Hello
Post by: Tidea on September 03, 2007, 06:35:06 PM
The very top text.   Where it says my wesite's name, and then to the right of it says SMF.

And 2, is there a way I can change the link of the "home" button so that it's linked back to the original website, instead of the root forum?

a) Search the forum because many people asked it (im even waiting for a doc to be approved saying how to remove it ;)

b) I think theres a webisite button mod try searching the mod database

Give us a report if you got it.

So, I was able to reedit the "hello" to my own customized welcome.  As far as editing what's above it, the name of my website, I still haven't found out how to do that.

If I don't, I guess I'll just make my own banner and use the logo thingy to get rid of that

Are you talking about
Admin - Server Settings - Forum name?

Or
THE SMF image in the top right corner.

hello,

if you look at my forum, how can I get my banner to be all the way to the left without that small little space between the left edge of the banner and the border?  Or at least, center it :D

Thanks
