Please ask question related to this MOD here --> Support for eFloatingbar MOD (http://www.etalkindia.com/computer_programming_and_designing/support_thread_for_efloating_bar_mod_for_smf-t4015.0.html)
(Chances are that I will reply quicker over there)
Version 0.1.1
For SMF 2 beta 4, 2 RC1 and SMF 1.1.7, 1.1.8Description
This eFloating bar uses the Javascript & CSS combination to produce eye catchy - attention grabber floating bar which can be displayed to guests as well as to members. You can display separate message for Guest and members. This MOD is highly customizable through Admin Panel.
Possible use of this eFloating bar MOD:
--> It can be really helpful for you to boost number of new registrations in your SMF Community. If properly used, you can see your new member registration count getting doubled in no time.
--> Can be used to give a quick overview including qualities and specialties about your forum to guests and attract them to JOIN it.
--> Can be used for members if you need some immediate attention from members and they can't ignore it.
--> Can be used to place ads which can't be ignored by Visitors.
Features
- Can not be blocked by Pop-up blockers as its a floating layer inside the page itself.
- Can be disabled or enbabled for Guests or for Members or For Both
- Separate Message for Guests and Members
- eFloatingbar for Logged in Members Remains closed for the browser session if they closed it once. Which means it won't reload again and again after the member closed it manually.
- Highly Customizable through Admin Panel ie. - See Customization Details for more Information
Demo
Demo can be found here -->
India Forum (http://www.etalkindia.com) & Linux Forum Community (http://www.linuxsolved.com/)
Installation
Simply install it via package manager.
Installation on Custom Template
This MOD need manual modification in order to function on custom themes other than default. You can use Package Parser to do the required changes. If you are unsure about it then you can ask me.
Administration
After install you can access it through Admin Panel where you can specify your own Message for Guests as well as for Members.
- For SMF 2beta4 & 2RC1 :
Goto --> Admin --> Configuration --> Modification --> Miscellaneous - For SMF 1.1.7:
Goto --> Admin --> Features & Options --> Layout & Options
Customization
This mod can be highly customized via Admin Panel to change the way it looks and behave. If you have basic knowledge of CSS then you can experiment a lot to make it look good. You may see screenshots provided to have general idea.
While you can customize the CSS, you have to make sure that certain elements do not get changed as it may result in non-functioning of the eFloating bar.
To start with you can PASTE following CSS code in ADMIN area:
#topbar
{
font-size:70%;
position:absolute;
border: 2px solid black;
padding: 2px;
background-color:#ECFFBF;
width: 450px;
visibility: hidden;
z-index: 100;
}
#topbar a:hover
{
color: #FFFFFF;
background-color:#FF6600;
}Here you can specify and modify element yourself like changing its background, changing size of the Floating bar etc.
Hence with the combination of HTML which can be used in Message to guest and CSS you can create some nice layouts for your eFloating Bar.
Note:ID #topbar has to be there and every changes made should be inside it and for it.
In case of broken layout just disable the Custom CSS option and it will revert back to original CSS.
Copyright
This mod is based on script Floating Top Bar script (http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex17/floatbar.htm) of Dynamicdrive.com
Version Information

Made minor changes to make it more compatible with SMF 1.1.x version.
It will eliminate some folder permission issue while installing on SMF 1.1.x version.

ive just installed this mod on 1.1.7 without any errors, enabled it for guests, wrote a message, saved it - then logged out but nothing, no message box
my forum is a modified default but i checked the files to ensure install edits were done checking them with the manual edit instructions and its all installed fine
Works fine for me.
must just not like me then lol
Well.. if you did not see any errors while installation then should have something specific to your current theme status. However, I would like you to enable that mod Guest and show me the link of the forum. May be I can suggest something then.
its enabled and should read - Welcome to Bull Breed Luverz - some eliments of the forum are closed to guests. Please sign up to our free site to enjoy the full features and areas closed to guests.
http://www.bullbreedluverz.com/smf
cheers
I can see that either MOD is not properly applied or it is conflicting with something. Can you show your index.template.php ?
here ya go
Looks like it is installed properly. I just overlooked your first post where you said its modification was done properly.
I guess part of Providing your own message, your forgot to enable it by TICKING the check box.
See the screenshot.

A really, really great and fine mod !!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
Works perfect. Must install it manuelly but it was no problem.
By the side, can you post the css code for your example pic ?

You got SMF 1.1.7, I just tested it once again on Fresh smf 1.1.7 install, and old SMF 1.1.7 with a number of mods installed.. and on a forum with 30 mods installed.. all 1.1.7 .. It worked everywhere, I am just not able to reproduce same problem at my side however, I suspect it with some conflict with other mod.
Shall update if anything useful :)
i'll keep an eye out on the thread, as you say its probably another mod and as theres 30 or so on my forum its hard to detect which 1 could be causing the problem ;)

Hey.. thanx..
The example you see is basically I created small HTML then in CSS added following, which was for defining size of the eFloating bar as well its border. Inner content is all made using simple html using <p> <ul> <h2> tags etc.
Here is CSS I used:
#topbar{
align:center;
position:absolute;
border: 5px solid #9ECA7D;
padding: 10px;
background-color: lightyellow;
width: 400px;
height: 400px;
visibility: hidden;
z-index: 500;
font-size:11px;
}
#topbar p{
margin:0px;
}
#topbar a
{color : #0000FF;}
Btw, would like to know your SMF version.

Make my code with VisualPage and now I can create finest popups ;D ;D :D :D :D :D :D
I am using 1.14
good mod congrats!
Some of the files the package manager needs to modify are not writable. This needs to be changed by logging into FTP and using it to chmod or create the files and folders. Your FTP information may be temporarily cached for proper operation of the package manager.
I got this message.............. when try to install it.............

So make the folder(s) writeable.
Well, I have it working for the default theme, but I need it to work for LiveCity!
Can you provide a list of file edits?

Ricky, this looks like a great mod!
I will install it soon, as soon as i finished my other forum's tasks. I just wanted to congratulate you for this. ;)
Very cool Mod Installed clean, can your post up your entire code for the floating window to give an example of how and where to put in the HTML code that show the links and everything?
Thank you in advance
How can we make it so that if a guest closes it, it won't pop back up on every page load? Or something like that.

Wrote this some articles before !
Put your html code in the message box ( guest or logged user ).
If you have a webpage prgram like dreamweaver, frontpage etc, copy the source code into the message box and give it a try :)
Hi ricky ive installed this with no errors or problems. can i ask one thing please. how on earth do you do a full bar with links in and that like the one in the screen shot. Im using SMF 1.1.7
also please note that i had to create a scripts folder on my site as the default theme does not have one. you may want to add that to your installation instructions.

Use the source code of your webpage creator.
For a link "Robinson Club" (bold and large) you must copy in the message box :
<P><B><A HREF="http://robinsonclub.com"><FONT SIZE="5">Robinson Club</FONT></A><FONT SIZE="5"></FONT></B></P>
And so on...........
Thank you!

using your FTP find the files that arent writeable, right click on it, select permisions and change it to 777
./Themes/default/languages/Modifications.english.php or ./Themes/default/languages/Modifications.english-utf8.php if you use that
./Sources/ModSettings.php
./Themes/default/index.template.php

it doesnt state which files tho :( its got to be the same as manual install tho isnt it?
just added the actual files but yes its the same as manual edit files - check the file permissions for those and see if they are 777
ok ive done that and its installed, but now i got this on the very top of my page :(

i am going to replace the files that i altered and see if it goes away, also replace the different theme files too..
any other suggestions?
Thanks again
ok guys a little tip for you. If your getting errors saying some files need to be writable. goto Themes/default and create a folder called "scripts" and chmod it to 777. that should help you out.

Problem with your ./Themes/default/languages/Modifications.english.php
Open it and make sure that everything in that file is enclosed between
<?php .. ?> <?php
EVERYTHING IN YOUR Language file..
.
.
?> IF using UTF then also check ./Themes/default/languages/Modifications.english-utf8.php for same.

For those who are facing "Folder Permission Error" should download version 0.1.1 , did some minor changes and should be helpful to eliminate such issues.
However, you can make all files writable from Admin --> Packages --> Option (in SMF 1.1.x) and after that it won't show any error in install.
After that operation -revert to "Minimum Files Writable".
I've made the files specified in this thread writeable...the FTP thing comes up..enter the correct details then I get this:
Session verification failed. Please try logging out and back in again, and then try again.
I've logged off, signed in, used a different theme, etc, and still get it and can't get the MOD to work.
It look fantastic, any help will be appreciated :)

how can i align to top middle?

how can i align to top middle?
Using CSS you can do that too.. can be shifted towards middle too, though exactly its not in center but can be achieved what you want.
I just added margin-left:200px
and it will shift 200px towards left.
#topbar
{
font-size:70%;
position:absolute;
border: 2px solid black;
padding: 2px;
background-color:lightblue;
width:450px;
visibility: hidden;
z-index: 100;
margin-left:200px; /*This is where I made the changes */
}
#topbar a:hover
{
color: #FFFFFF;
background-color:#FF6600;
}

You need to make HTML in separate editor and then paste whole in it.

You need to do like this :
<a href="LINK HERE">YOUR TEXT</a>
Though.. if you leave GUEST text box blank but enable it then it will show the registration link.
Hey Ricky,
Great mod - I've got mine working in the LiveCity theme now, and I even have my ads appearing for logged in members.
My question is this: I looked at the two .js files and at the top there appears to be 4 settings:
var persistclose = 1 //set to 0 or 1. 1 means once the bar is manually closed, it will remain closed for browser session
var startX = 60 //set x offset of bar in pixels
var startY = 10 //set y offset of bar in pixels
var verticalpos="frombottom" //enter "fromtop" or "frombottom"
However, when I made changes, nothing changed. I was trying to move the bar from top to bottom and I also was trying to make it so the guests only had to close it once per session. Any suggestions why making these file changes had no result?
I see Ricky has no much work, so I have a suggestion O:) :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
What´s about a message for some membergroups 8)
Another message for moderators or normal members.
Was only a thought O:) :) :)
Great mod Ricky. Can I give you an idea for a next mod based on the same script?
Can you make a mod that will make a pop-up just like this one but only to show when somebody (and only to that someone) receives a PM?
If you think that my idea is a good one, I think this mod: http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=1202 will hep you get the necessary code to put in the right place without spending to much time making to mod...

Problem with your ./Themes/default/languages/Modifications.english.php
Open it and make sure that everything in that file is enclosed between <?php .. ?> <?php
EVERYTHING IN YOUR Language file..
.
.
?>
IF using UTF then also check ./Themes/default/languages/Modifications.english-utf8.php for same.
both files are as you state :( still have the same problem ive downloaded the updated version and it installed without the file permission perfect but still got that text on top of screen :(

I hope you are editing script made for guests :)
Well after making changes I suggest you to clear your browser cache and then try. Or simply try in other browser.

If you think that my idea is a good one, I think this mod: http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=1202 will hep you get the necessary code to put in the right place without spending to much time making to mod...
Thanx for you good words.
But for PM I guess we already have Popup PM notification built in then why would one need it ? Btw, what you want to show in this pop-up layer.. PM notification or PM itself ?
ricky is there a way i can make this come up only once for registered members instead of it following them around the entire forum.
Why ?
They can simply close it !
i know but if the close it and go to another page it bounces back up

But for registered users it won't bounce back. It does same only for guests.
No Ricky, I checked it.
He is right, it bounced back.
Tested it for guests and closed the window but when I clicked to another thread the popup opened again.
OK, closed it, another thread and popup wad there again :-X
Well, it looks like to me there is a setting that would prevent the bouncing back problem you're having.
I posted on page 3 about this, but still no response. In the javascript files, there seems to be four lines of code at the top that are settings, one of which to control whether or not a guest would continue to receive the floating bar after manual close (upon navigating to another page).
Here is an example of what I was talking about...
var persistclose = 1 //set to 0 or 1. 1 means once the bar is manually closed, it will remain closed for browser session
var startX = 60 //set x offset of bar in pixels
var startY = 10 //set y offset of bar in pixels
var verticalpos="frombottom" //enter "fromtop" or "frombottom"
This is in each javascript file - one for guests and one for logged in member. So, each seems to have setting controls. Except for the fact that when I change these, nothing different happens. I wanted to change mine from appearing at the top to display at the bottom of the page... no change. As well as, no change on for the visitors either - they continue to receive the floating pop-up, even when set to "1" to remain closed.
Are these settings real, or just appear that way Ricky?
Well.. these settings are real and btw.. I did replied to your question asking you to clear your browser cache after changing the script settings.
In this MOD, it appears for GUEST always even if they closed it but for Members, it appears only once if they closed it. However, in some cases I found that for members it do not appear at all or did not close remains close even if closed manually.. but that was on few or rather 2 forums.. one was with 60+ MODs and another was with 45+ MODs.. So I guess was conflict with some MOD.. may be something like Ajax shoutbox or a MOD which make use of Javascripts significantly. However, I not sure which mod caused it.
But may be I will come with some work around for this in future release.

Well.. these settings are real and btw.. I did replied to your question asking you to clear your browser cache after changing the script settings.
Sorry man, I missed your reply. I've cleared browser cache and changed browsers - I normally check things in both IE and Firefox, but also lately in Chrome as well.
I'm not as worried about the guests having to click the bar every time they change pages - I want them to join anyway.
My primary objective was moving the bar to the bottom, which it appeared the last setting would do... but, hasn't. I even made sure that I didn't have any custom css in the admin and it still didn't move it to the bottom.
But, I did move it to the middle of the page using the custom css, so at least my site's title isn't covered up with it any longer. Overall, I'm happy :)
Thanks Ricky, nice mod and works fine on 2.0RC1.
Fantastic for getting an instruction or message to all members that you know they will see, great for non-intrusive ads and most importantly annoys guests enough to either register or go away when you stick it in the middle of the screen...

Hey Ricky,
I miss one function !!!!!
When you start the mod, is it possible that then some real Euro Cash come from the printer ?????????
Please !!!!!
8) 8) :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
How do you get html into the box? It seems to only hold so many characters. Id like to do something like in your example. I already have the css you posted but thats just for the empty box. How do I get html inside the box? images, formatted text and links inside the box is wht I am shooting for.
******, Harvester !!!!!!
read the answers in this topic !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Then your question has got an answer.

Once again.. you just create HTML in your favourite HTML editor and paste into the GUEST Bar box or Logged in Member box . :) You can also take help of CSS..
Basically if you have basic knowledge of CSS and HTML then you can do a lot with it :)

I wish I could do that for me too :P
.......Nevermind problem solved, but this is the code if anyone wants to create something similar, just enter this into the Write your own Message for the guest on the eFloating Bar. area and the Write Your own Custom Message for Logged in Members for eFloating Bar. and NOT the Place your Custom CSS Here box.
This is the code I used for each.

Though that code will work but technically its not appropriate, may result in non-functioning of few Ajax things like quick quote.. but I said. may !!
It should be:

If you are installing this Mod on any theme OTHER than the default theme , You need to Manually edit YOUR themes index.template.php . the Code is below for those that do not know how to use the Package Parser.
I use this Mod on a Heavily Modded ( 98 mods + Custom Code) 1.1.7 Babylon Themed Forum, with NO Issues at all.
./Themes/ Your Template /index.template.php
Find :
// Show all the relative links, such as help, search, contents, and the like.
echo '
Add Before :
//eFloating Bar Mod by Ricky.
if ($context['user']['is_guest'] && !empty($modSettings['efloatingbar_mode_guest']) && $context['current_action'] != 'login' && $context['current_action'] != 'register')
echo '<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript" src="', $settings['default_theme_url'], '/floating-bar-guest.js"></script>';
if ($context['user']['is_logged'] && !empty($modSettings['efloatingbar_mode_logged']) && $context['current_action'] != 'login' && $context['current_action'] != 'register')
echo'
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript" src="', $settings['default_theme_url'], '/floating-bar-logged.js"></script>
';
echo
'<style type="text/css"> ',
(empty($modSettings['efloatingbar_css_enable']))? $txt['efloatingbar_css_default'] : $modSettings['efloatingbar_user_style'] , '</style>';
//End eFloating Bar Mod
Find:
<body>';
Add After:
//Show the efloating bar only if the MOD is enabled for Guest and Guests are not on Register or Login Pages
if ($context['user']['is_guest'] && !empty($modSettings['efloatingbar_mode_guest']) && $context['current_action'] != 'login' && $context['current_action'] != 'register')
{
echo '<div id="topbar">
<span style="float:right"><a href="javascript:void(0);" onClick="closebar(); return false"><strong>[x]</strong></a></span>
', (empty($modSettings['efloatingbar_text_guest'])) ? $txt['efloatingbar_text_guest_default'] : $modSettings['efloatingbar_text_guest'], '
</div>';
}
//Show the efloating bar only if the MOD is enabled for Members
if ($context['user']['is_logged'] && !empty($modSettings['efloatingbar_mode_logged']) && $context['current_action'] != 'login' && $context['current_action'] != 'register')
{
echo '<div id="topbar">
<span style="float:right"><a href="javascript:void(0);" onClick="closebar(); return false"><strong>[x]</strong></a></span>
', (empty($modSettings['efloatingbar_text_logged'])) ? $txt['efloatingbar_text_logged_default'] : $modSettings['efloatingbar_text_logged'], '
</div>';
}
This Code is straight from Rickys Mod............

I need help for apply this mod in OverView Theme: index.templete.php not found <body>';
In this mod is <body> only, and result with error:
Template Parse Error!
There was a problem loading the /Themes/OverView/index.template.php
syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting ',' or ';'
Please any help?? (sorry my english is very poor) :-\ thanks!
Attach your index.template.php here!
It's done! :)
Ricky.
There is a small mis-spelling in :
/Default/Languages/Modifications.english.php and /Default/Languages/Modifications.english-utf8.php
Find:
$txt['efloatingbar_css_enable'] = 'Select this if you want to use your own CSS instead of deault';
it should read:
Replace with :
$txt['efloatingbar_css_enable'] = 'Select this if you want to use your own CSS instead of default';
other than that................awesome Mod !!!

It works.
Thank you TW1ST3D.
Hi TW1ST3D, thanx for supporting here :)
Regarding keeping it close, I will add something similar soon, meanwhile you can edit /Themes/default/scripts/floating-bar-guest.js
There some instructions are given, follow them !

Edit the following in your
/Themes/default/scripts/floating-bar-guest.js Find:
:
var persistclose = 0 //set to 0 or 1. 1 means once the bar is manually closed, it will remain closed for browser session
change the 0 to 1 , then It will remain closed for the remainder of the session
@ fredda88
Try the Template attached...........It should Work for you,
Make backups of your original in case it does not
Please post back and let me know.
Still the same problem, the .js scripts should be in the theme folder right?

I checked while you were updating and found that
You will need to update your forum to 1.17 ..............1.1.RC3 is not compatible. Sorry.
It should work on 1.1.x version because not interfering internals of SMF.
@Fredda8
Install mod and enable it, use file provided by TW1ST3D and let us know ur forum URL!
OK, it's just the theme thats 1.1RC3. My forum is updated to 1.1.7.
Thanks for your help!
@Ricky it's www.digitalsat.nu
Sorry!
I missed to edit the language file in my custom theme.
Thanks anyway!
@ Ricky.
Could you post the whole .css file of the Guest pop up from the India site including the added text?
I'm no .css guru , so I need to see the text in place to understand and edit.
Thanks.

Well, firstly, thanks for the great mod :)
But there's actually only one thing I need it to. And it's php.
Is it, ro will it ever be, possible to parse php in the bar? If it already is - how to do it? Maybe some modification?

i am going to replace the files that i altered and see if it goes away, also replace the different theme files too..
any other suggestions?
Thanks again
Problem with your ./Themes/default/languages/Modifications.english.php
Open it and make sure that everything in that file is enclosed between <?php .. ?> <?php
EVERYTHING IN YOUR Language file..
.
.
?>
IF using UTF then also check ./Themes/default/languages/Modifications.english-utf8.php for same.
that was the error :)
Everything seems to have installed perfect just there is no option in admin for me to edit it or even look at it?
Include your language files here. Also if you are on custom theme and it has language files then include that too ie. attach here.
thanks for looking for me :)
in custom theme there is only 1 file called settings.english.php

Would like to know what you want to insert inside this eFloatingbar in php!
Hi,
I'd like to insert the function calling Language Drop Down (from THIS mod (http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=598)). The ability to switch between several languages is crucial for me and the users, but I haven't been able to find a satisfactory place to put the menu, so far. An additional window floating at the bottom of the screen seems just perfect :)
For those of you that want Bigger Text Boxes in Admin--->features and Options--->Layout and Options........in 1.1.7 and below
Open your Sources Folder , find ModSettings.php, and open with a Good Editor ( I use Notepad++ [it's FREE !!])
Find:
//eFloatingbar by Ricky.
$txt['admin_efloatingbar'],
array('check', 'efloatingbar_mode_guest'),
array('large_text', 'efloatingbar_text_guest'),
array('check', 'efloatingbar_mode_logged'),
array('large_text', 'efloatingbar_text_logged'),
array('check', 'efloatingbar_css_enable'),
array('large_text', 'efloatingbar_user_style', '6" style="width:95%'),
'',
//End eFloatingbar
and Replace with:
//eFloatingbar by Ricky.
$txt['admin_efloatingbar'],
array('check', 'efloatingbar_mode_guest'),
array('large_text', 'efloatingbar_text_guest','6" style="width:95%'),
array('check', 'efloatingbar_mode_logged'),
array('large_text', 'efloatingbar_text_logged','6" style="width:95%'),
array('check', 'efloatingbar_css_enable'),
array('large_text', 'efloatingbar_user_style', '6" style="width:95%'),
'',
//End eFloatingbar
This will give you some room to do your edits and see what you are doing.
ricky thankyou for your reply what files do i need to edit on my extreme6 theme and if possible can i attach the files here and see if you can get it working as of now its not working at all.
what files would u need ?
here is forum link
www.softwarezpro.com
@ UkGangsta
attach your index.template.php from that theme
here you go and ty
@ UkGangsta
Try this one and let me know if it works for You
(attached)
sorry its not showing anything shall i unistall the mod and install again ? its the floating bar mod i have installed
@ UkGangsta
Did you edit the Language file as well?
no i havnt edited any files sorry what files are needed to be edited ? looked in theme folder there is no language file present
Quote from: UkGangsta on February 02, 2009, 06:17:29 PM
no i havnt edited any files sorry what files are needed to be edited ?
Do you use English or English UTF-8 ?
also another crazy question..............Did you enable the mod in the admin area ? (Admin--->features and Options--->Layout and Options)
i use english and yes its enabled in admin i appreciate your help !!
are there any errors?
Check the themes ./Themes/Extreme6 /languages/Modifications.english.php you need to attach that file
If that theme does not have a file such as that , attach your
/Themes/default/languages/Modifications.english.php file and I'll have a look.
no errors in error log or on install this has me very confused works fine on smf default core :(
there is no language file in the theme and that file is not there.
here is the default modification file attached below.
attached in above post ^^^^^^^
I think I found your problem........try this one.............Let me know if it works
sorry still nothing :(
Hmmmmm............thats Odd !! you may want to go back and check all the files that are edited by the mod, The modifications.english.php was not complete and I fixed it. I also know that the Fussilet themes are layered, so that could be a problem............I'm not schooled enough in those to make that call. you could also uninstall and then reinstall to see if that helps. other than that , maybe Ricky. can help you............
one more thing to try, did you do a "Hard Refresh" by hitting your F5 button?
ill do what u suggest and let you no but ty for all your help i really do appreciate it.

Hi, your language file is fine. Hope you are using english language as default. Btw, try reinstalling the mod. May be that way it will work. But keep backup of old files.

Hi, it can be wrapped into floating DIV, ie. Language dropdown then replace index.template.php code which is found after <body>'; and is inserted by eFloatingbar MOD. Try following, let me know if worked. You have to enable floating bar mod but have to left custom message box Empty.
//Show the efloating bar only if the MOD is enabled for Guest and Guests are not on Register or Login Pages
if ($context['user']['is_guest'] && !empty($modSettings['efloatingbar_mode_guest']) && $context['current_action'] != 'login' && $context['current_action'] != 'register')
{
echo '<div id="topbar">
<span style="float:right"><a href="javascript:void(0);" onClick="closebar(); return false"><strong>[x]</strong></a></span>
', (empty($modSettings['efloatingbar_text_guest'])) ? template_language_select() : $modSettings['efloatingbar_text_guest'], '
</div>';
}
//Show the efloating bar only if the MOD is enabled for Members
if ($context['user']['is_logged'] && !empty($modSettings['efloatingbar_mode_logged']) && $context['current_action'] != 'login' && $context['current_action'] != 'register')
{
echo '<div id="topbar">
<span style="float:right"><a href="javascript:void(0);" onClick="closebar(); return false"><strong>[x]</strong></a></span>
', (empty($modSettings['efloatingbar_text_logged'])) ? template_language_select() : $modSettings['efloatingbar_text_logged'], '

@marchingelite2I guess you should show us your ModSettings.php
Hello,
I'm having a problem using this under Internet Explorer. First of all it will apear in the background and not infront of my forum. More over it moves my table on the left leaving a space on the right - see picture attached.
It works fine with Firefox though.
Here is my CSS:
{
font-size:70%;
position: absolute;
border: 1px solid black;
padding: 5px;
background-color:#BDDD99;
width: 500px;
visibility: auto;
z-index: 100px;
}
Any advice how to fix this would be great. Also is it possible to display the bar on the right instead of the left of the page maybe with a 100 pixel padding to the right border and top? Thanks!
thanks again for looking for me
@ samurai-lupin
Which version of I.E. are you using?
I'm using IE 7.0
@ marchingelite2
I looked at the file and things seem to be in order, I took out some whitespace......
feel free to try this one it may work for you.

IE. 7.0 = Microsoft Internet Explorer
Anyways, I guess I know about your problem. You have messed little with your CSS. Best way is to disable your custom CSS and then it will revert back to original settings.
Alternatively use following:
Here is my CSS:
{
font-size:70%;
position: absolute;
border: 1px solid black;
padding: 5px;
background-color:#BDDD99;
width: 500px;

Hello, thanks for your message. I used this code but it didn't fix my problem. I still have the border of empty space on the right in IE.
Thanks for any advice you may have.
@ samurai-lupin
I just visited your forum and it looks great !! ( on Firefox and IE, both ) are you just trying to center the floating window ?
It appears that your homepage is skewed to the left with a lot of empty space on the right, do you use an ad management mod?
@ marchingelite2
I feel your frustration..............however, I think it maybe a conflict with mods, Have you tried it on a fresh install (Test Forum)?
will try it on a fresh forum and let you know, probably a mod as you have stated... finding out which one tho is a problem init ..
thanks for your help guys
@ samurai-lupin
I guess this is your forum:
hunting.com/smf/
I checked it no IE6 and IE7, seems fine to me.
May be I do not understand what you are referring to, may be you can post a screenshot pointing to the area of problem.

Basically, for you mod is working but there is no Admin interface for it !!
Hmm.. I will update you as soon I get to know the reason behind.
Thanks for your reply. Here are two screenshot for illustrating what I mean. Thanks.
@ samurai-lupin
That is a CSS issue , you may need to check your edits in your css file, or use a back-up of an old one to see if it corrects.
@Samurai-lupin
I looked at your site, though visually site is looking fine but code is little messy ie. HTML in there. Also, efloating bar must come after <body> but you have placed it between </head> and <body>.
You may post your index.template.php ,we might be able to sort it for you!
Quote from: samurai-lupin on February 05, 2009, 09:00:51 AM
Thanks for your reply. Here are two screenshot for illustrating what I mean. Thanks.
I went to your site and it popped up on me after everything had loaded in.
Thank you verymuch for your kind support! I really appreciate it. I put the code after the <body> tage but unfortunately it didn't solve the problem.
I'm attaching my index.template.php
Thanks again!
Is it ok to be installed in smf 1.1.8 ?
yes its fine to install on 1.1.8 as 1.1.8 is only a security update. I had it working fine on 1.1.8 yesterday before i upgraded to SMF 2.0 RC1 and it works on that aswell
How to test the changes if i close the floating window? And how can i regenerate it if a user close it?
This is a wonderful Mod. Thanks a million. Im leaving you in my will for this one...
Quote from: searchgr on February 06, 2009, 12:12:53 PM
How to test the changes if i close the floating window? And how can i regenerate it if a user close it?
What do you mean by test the changes. what i do is when i have inputed my HTML code for the guests, i click save then log-out and the changed window floats in and shows me if ive done it correctly. it wont regenerate for registered members. it only comes up once and ive found once is enough. any other questions just ask and i'll see if i can help.
Let's say that i want to publish a new announcement/advertisement. Is there any way to make the floating window to reappear?
well what i would sugest is this. when you make a new announcement design your new HTML code for that new announcement and then change the old HTML for members with the new HTML or you could just use this for global announcements Link to mod (http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=419)
Ricky i hope you dont take any offence to me helping with a bit of support. will only do it if i can help.
I have changed the html code but the floating window doesn't appear...
for it to reapear you may have to logout then login again
i think ricky may have designed it so that it doesnt keep floating in and annoying the hell out of your members. he may have a way around this so you may have to ask him nicely. please be patient for replies of him as im sure he is very busy lol
Quote from: alan1979 on February 06, 2009, 01:19:07 PM

Nothing.
Also a good idea is to be able to add a separate css code for quests & users.
hmmm. to be honest i know sod all about CSS so i will leave that up to Ricky sorry
Every time i (and my members) open the browser from scratch (when i restart the pc) the floating window reappears. Are you sure that your members don't face the same problem?
That is what it is supposed to do.........................
Aha...thanks for the info. The description of the mod is not clear as to when the floating window appears. So, when the members restarts their pc's will see the floating window again?
The eFloating bar for guest keeps reappearing for guests on every page load and for members it won't load again even they close it once. But they closes their browser and again open site then will re-appear.
For future: An option to specify the membergroup i/o all the members.
I will add few exciting things in future version as soon as I get some time to work upon it !
Thanks
And if is possible separate CSS for quests and members.

You don't need much change, can still do. You can use common CSS for defining size and position and can have separate html inside box for guest and members. both will have totally different look. Play a little with this thing :)
The size is the problem.... i would like to have a different size for guests/members.
Quote from: searchgr on February 07, 2009, 01:33:24 PM
The size is the problem.... i would like to have a different size for guests/members.
You can play with that as well..............Tinker with it, it's OK !!
A member of my forum has the following problem: Even if he choose to close the floating window the window appears again in the next click. Any ideas of the reason that causes the problem?
One member of my forum reported this too...
This mod could work better with a cookie.
This mod uses cookie to remember if the box was closed or not !
As of now, you cant have separate size for guests and members but still using HTML wisely, it can be achieved.
PS: I do not use it all the time for members, idea was to grab attention of members in a way so that its hard for them to ignore.. so when there is something important in my forum, I enable eFloatingbar for Members and display my message ..
As said, I will come with many improvement in next version as soon as I get time to finish and test properly :)
@ searchgr & willerby
It sounds as if those members don't have cookies enabled in their browsers
thanks
He has the same problem with different pc's. Is the cookie saved in the server under the member's account?
Cookie is saved in user PC...

Pretty easy, you need to create a box in HTML which looks like similar to that box shown there and then paste that html in "comment area" in Admin Panel. To make it appear from bottom, you need to javascripts included with eFloatingbar, instructions are given there.

What code would I need to add / change in order to appear teh box on the bottom of my page? Thank you
I almost hate to ask a question but here goes. Installed and works fine on default and brown and tan themes. I however at the moment am in the midst of trying to get the Black Fs theme to work and that is where I ran into trouble..... when manually editing the the second set of edits in the index_template.php file the Black Fs file is different then the Default or Brown and Tan files were. You say to add after *** <body>'; *** and in the Black Fs template file the string there leads right into..
**********
<body>
<div id="boyutlar">
<div class="ust-l">
<div class="ust-r">
<div class="ust">
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sol">
<div class="sag">
<div class="orta">
<div id="header">
<div id="header1">
<div id="header2">
<div id="userarea">';
if ($context['user']['is_logged'])
{
echo '
<b>', $txt['hello_member_ndt'], ' ', $context['user']['name'], '</b><br />';
***************
I tried putting the file after <body> and the template failed I tried after </b><br/>'; at the end and nothing happened.
Thanks in advance...
**Update - 8 hours or so later** Ok actually found I could get this Mod this to work on this theme (Black Fs) However <b>"only in the Header" </b> It does not show up below the header when you scroll down the whole page as it does when using with the Default and Brown and Green themes. Suggestions? I'm sure it is simple but I am done staring at the screen this day..'lol'
Thanks again we really do appreciate all yo folks do making SMF what it is.

Attach your index.template.php for that theme here.
Thanks Ricky,
File is attached and the forum is at www.alaskaoutdoorsinfo.com/Forum so you can see what is taking place.
@ akguide
Try a "hard Refresh" by hitting F5 , I ran into the same problem with 2.0 RC1.
Thanks for the tip, I already tried that however, It appears to me to be a template thing having to deal with layers perhaps. I think you might have mentioned something to that effect in earlier posts in this thread but I did not see anything that would resolve this.

More then appreciated is your taking the time to even do this, You are a champ, The mod now works perfectly ... hopefully we both learned something here and this ends up benefiting additional SMF users.
..of course now I'll have to go compare the files to learn what you had to do but ...
Many thanks again!

That things is not yet available for efloating bar.. !!
hello ricky.. first of all i just want to thank you for a very good mod here.. its great.... i tried to install it in my forum after reading this thread and it works fine.. although i get some errors that others are experiencing here too just like the need to log in to ftp but it works fine afterwards.... i just have one problem. I tried to put the css that was given here but it did not change the look of the efloating bar when i logged out. its still the default thats appearing. Here is the link to my site for you t check out... http://onlinersclub.biz/forum (http://onlinersclub.biz/forum) thank you for your time. Im using a default theme. thanks again.
The CSS is same as default CSS, its like template, you can modify it (if you know CSS) to change the layout !

Oh ok.. i thought that was the css for the other sample you have here with the big box in the middle. Im not really familiar with css yet so im still trying to figure out how to modify it. Anyways... thanks a lot for your reply.

hi ricky, ive been helping someone with creating a forum for them and they want your mod on there forum and using a code posted on here i have set it up but ive installed a static menu bar on their site and your floating bar is beneath this menu bar
http://www.come2join.com/
i need to reposition your mod so it is lower down the screen and to the left slightly so its clear of the menu bar and not encroaching on the site logo - got any tips please?
You can use Margin in css--
margin-top : 100px;
margin-left:100px;
Try changing numbers as per your requirements.
cheers ricky
Hey Ricky...
Not sure if this was suggested yet, but would it be possible to add a "Drag" feature so that the box can be moved around the screen with the mouse?

Hey Ricky...

Why? this mod is designed to be somewhat of an annoyance/attention getter for those not registered or logged in..............what would the benefit be if it could be moved around?
it is supposed to get your attention and make you close it, not move it around.
It is doing exactly as it was designed to do.
Main reason I suggested this was because (maybe it's just my site... maybe not) it get's hidden behind the logo on some themes. The drag thing is so that the user/guest could move it around so that they could read it. Or is there some other way to reposition it (like CSS or something)?
EDIT:
LOL... sorry, just saw a post that already said how to do that. Part that makes feel stupid is that it was only a few posts above mine. Sorry... forget I suggested that.
Just wanted to say Thank You very much to Ricky for this AWESOME MOD!
Ricky, you did an excellent job, and it really adds a nice factor to a website.

Installing mod is easy, just download the package and upload it through Package manager ie.
Admin --> Packages --> Download Package --> Upload a Package
And then apply it.
Hello... I am facing a big problem. I have installed and used the mod for some days now and everything was ok.
Today after I enabled the pop up for the loged in users the pages of the forum became blank. The guest account works ok. If you login the pages becomes blank.
I have asked from my hosting to remove the mod and I could access the forum... but the message I had, now appears on top of every page.
I have tried to reinstall the mod to remove it but as soon as I installed it again the pages were blank again and can not access anything. Plus all the text is Centred
How can I remove the text on top of the page? (the one that is in the red box - see attached)
Thank you!
Go to index.template.php and search for it.
I can not find it there. I searched. ::)
Themes/default/languages/Modifications.english.php ?
nope! :( not in there.
can someone share the custom css for me?

Its index.template.php only! Find it after <body>';
Hello Ricky,
I've installed your mod but it's not being very kind with my custom theme.
I know the problem lies with the fact I have <body> instead of <body>': but can't for the life of me remember what else I have to include if I add the ': after <body> :D
Can you help? I've attached my index.template.php file for your perusal.

I am glad it worked for you!
Hi Ricky., nice mod, thanks!!!
It's possible add floating bar also for other membergroups ( moderator. and others i have created)?
Thanks!
Antonio
Well, on next update I will try to include such feature but I can't guarantee as I it depends upon the availability of free time for me!

Best regards.
PD: Waiting for membergroup function. :P
For google ads use the ads mod.
I´m using it.

Well.. these settings are real and btw.. I did replied to your question asking you to clear your browser cache after changing the script settings.
In this MOD, it appears for GUEST always even if they closed it but for Members, it appears only once if they closed it. However, in some cases I found that for members it do not appear at all or did not close remains close even if closed manually.. but that was on few or rather 2 forums.. one was with 60+ MODs and another was with 45+ MODs.. So I guess was conflict with some MOD.. may be something like Ajax shoutbox or a MOD which make use of Javascripts significantly. However, I not sure which mod caused it.
But may be I will come with some work around for this in future release.
Unfortunately you are right. Your mod is not working for logged users if you have shoutbox mod.
After uninstalling nneonneo's AJAX ShoutBox 1.20 from my smf 1.1.8 forum floating bars are shown.
If you need support or testing please let me know.
I hope you can solve it soon.
Best regards,
Pablo.

I have the same issue as this person, but I also have about 10,000 edits already in the index.template.php file for my theme :-\ and hence cannot simply use a different one. Any advice on how to edit this would be great. I tried to improvise by adding the ': after <body> in addition to the edit, but it catastrophically broke my whole forum. Thank God for backups
Attach your index.template.php here..
Hello and thank you for the great mod, However i cannot seem to get it to work with the Helios Multi Theme, works great with thr default theme, Here is my index.template.php from the helios theme. Thank you.
I figured it out. You need the '; after <body> and echo ' at the end.
Got it with the Helios Theme:
<body>';

The server location would be if YOU had put it in a remote location somewhere. (I assume, never done it that way)
If you have it on your laptop go into the admin CP, under download packages point it at the package on your laptop and click upload.

A couple things:
1> BACKUP YOUR FILE BEFORE TRYING THIS ONE
I did the edits right, but I am no pro. Backup the file before you copy this one over. You've been warned.
2> Do not use notepad or whatever it is you're using to edit PHP files. Use a proper text editor like Notepad++ The code was a jumbled mess at those edits.
BTW, what is it doing or not doing?
its not showing and there was a parse error on your file unexspected () or something sorry didnt work thxs anyway.
There's quite a few differences between your file and the original from the 2.0rc1 file. What's weird is there seems to be some sections missing. Sorry, one of these guys with a lot more skills than I will know more
EDIT: IF it's any clue, I couldn't get it to show up for me until I added the echo I got from one of Ricky's post.
im using smf 2.0 rc1 and the floatong bar will not move from bottom right corner of forum, how do i reposition it to top left so when people scroll down forum it follows them.
im on smf 2.0rc1 with a custom theme.
I have this on my forum. I use 1.1.8 on default theme.
Would someone be able to help me with the css if I say what i want in the box?
Am only just learning html for the first time.
Hello. I've also 1.1.8 and I can't manually install in another theme besides the Default because of the last part of the code (after </body>;)
Can someone help me? I think the problem is in I've attached my index.template.php.
Tks,

OK Bub, This topic doesn't seem to get a lot of action so I'll give ya a shot. I got this working for my forum and had about the exact same issue you are, but I AM NO EXPERT in any way. If you decide to try this file backup your other one first, well actually you have a back here now in this topic :) Also your file is slightly different than mine.
Anyway, see if this one works. If not I have one more idea and then if not, replace it with the old one.

Tribulus I have had some inspiration from your site for several items.
Would it be possible for some help on how to set our efloating bar so it can be viewed on the black background?
On the previous theme there was no problem BUT I believe it is time I started to learn css.

I do very much appreciate the kind words, but I don't know how much I can teach you. I just started playing around with all this stuff a couple months ago myself. I can only tell you what I do and maybe somebody with a lot more experience can correct me.
The Firefox extension Firebug has a great context menu feature where anything you right click on gives the option to "inspect element". This is especially useful for CSS editing. For instance, in the following example I right clicked and went to inspect element on the light yellow middle background on my site.
(https://www.simplemachines.org/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fgregnmary.gotdns.com%2Fpix%2Ffbcss.jpg&hash=b48abdc49bbea61e3c147a45c8798b73d0aaaeed)
It tells me that the color #ffff91 which is the light yellow background color is found on line 390 (or close) of the style.css file. Though it doesn't say, I know that is the one for the theme I'm using.
Another indispensable tool in my opinion is a color chooser/picker. This one here:
(https://www.simplemachines.org/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fgregnmary.gotdns.com%2Fpix%2Fcc.jpg&hash=f261e1dc335b7d04bb1c6e6afe82d18e23e04e32)
is KColorChooser for Linux. There have to be free ones for windows as well if that's what you're using. With this you can sample ANY color on ANY item ANYWHERE on the screen as well as paste the codes in to quickly see what color they represent though if you roll over the color codes in Firebug it will pop up a little box showing the color too.
Firebug also lets you try changes on the fly where you can do temporary edits that will only persist until the next browser refresh.
This is the code for my popup box:
<html> <body> <style type="text/css"> #topbar{ position:absolute; border: 5px solid #7BBC01; padding: 10px; background-color: #FDFF94; width: 400px; height: 450px; visibility: hidden; z-index: 500; font-size:12px; } #topbar p{ margin:0px; } #topbar a {color : #0000FF;} </style> <center><h2 style="font-size:18px;color:#528751; margin-top: 30px;"><strong>We are happy to see you here at KALE'S KORNER</strong></h2> <strong>KALE'S KORNER</strong> is a place to share in each other's knowledge and experiences enjoying all aspects of gardening <h3>We would like you to <a href="http://gregnmary.gotdns.com:8080/index.php?action=register"> Join</a> KALE'S KORNER Today.</h3> </center> <h2 style="margin-left:8px;font-size:18px">Why JOIN Kale's Korner ?</h2> <ul style="list-style:square; line-height:15px; color:#666666"><li>Get rid of this box=]</li> <li>You will become part of a community of dedicated gardeners</li> <li>Share your creative gardening skills with others.</li> <li>Enhance your creative gardening skills by interacting with others</li> <li>Ask questions and get answers from members all over the world</li> <li>Share your photography and videos!</li> <li>Access to members only content & lots more!</li></ul> <center><h3><a href="http://gregnmary.gotdns.com:8080/index.php?action=register">Register Now - <strong>Its FREE</strong></a></h3> <p>Already a member then <a href="" onClick="closebar(); return false">CLOSE</a> this window and Login.</p> <h1 style="font-size:22px"><strong><a href="http://gregnmary.gotdns.com:8080/index.php?action=register">JOIN US</a> </strong></h1></center> </body> </html>It is not mine, I got it from somewhere else in this topic and only modified it to suit my needs. You can deduce from what is there quite a bit of what will happen if you make your own changes. Text, colors, sizes etc. Trial and error is unavoidable unless you are an expert, which I am decidedly not. I did my edits in an editor and pasted the whole thing including the changes into the field which is pretty small and can be a pain to edit in the SMF admin interface. Those are basics I picked up myself and may not be the best way for any of this, but I'm a stubborn adventurist and like to learn as much as I can myself. Somebody else may show up right behind me and declare all my methods to be thoroughgoing quackery for which I will have no response other than gratitude for having been shown a better way.
In any case, BACKUPS are the order of the day. Even the most apocalyptic disasters can be quickly recovered from as long as backups are made before any editing is done.

Just thought I would share a small edit I made to help make things a bit easier!
Here is what I did, I edited the Sources/ManageSettings.php file as so:
I simply took the following original code,
//eFloatingbar by Ricky.
$txt['admin_efloatingbar'],
array('check', 'efloatingbar_mode_guest'),
array('text', 'efloatingbar_text_guest'),
array('check', 'efloatingbar_mode_logged'),
array('text', 'efloatingbar_text_logged'),
array('check', 'efloatingbar_css_enable'),
array('large_text', 'efloatingbar_user_style', '6" style="width:95%'),
//End eFloatingbar
And changed it to,
//eFloatingbar by Ricky.
$txt['admin_efloatingbar'],
array('check', 'efloatingbar_mode_guest'),
array('large_text', 'efloatingbar_text_guest', '6" style="width:95%'),
array('check', 'efloatingbar_mode_logged'),
array('large_text', 'efloatingbar_text_logged', '6" style="width:95%'),
array('check', 'efloatingbar_css_enable'),
array('large_text', 'efloatingbar_user_style', '6" style="width:95%'),
//End eFloatingbar
I simply made the text boxes for the guest and user text a little bigger..

You should be able to change it how you want
I tried that code first but no go.. I will try again as I notice some minor differences, and let you know..
**EDIT**
Nope still not working.. I have no clue why, maybe the class being called isn't set in the themes css?
I am going to check that since it's all I can think of right now..
If you want you can see it at the site in my link but you have to register to see it, I am not letting guests see it till I finish it..
**EDIT TWO**
Here is what I found..
/* Reset all lists. */
ul, ul li {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
list-style: none;
}
/* We can define lists to be lists tho! */
ul.normallist {
padding-left: 2em;
}
ul.normallist li {
list-style: disc;
}
My guess is that I need to use normal list right lol? I don't normally do css..
**EDIT THREE**
Yep, that was the culprit! The css was resetting them to nothing..
Still though feel free to check the site out lol, and thank you for the help!
Ricky, is it easy to add the option to target specific membergroups i/o guests & members?
Hello there, look, my problems is that guest or members CAN NOT close the floating bar
And also, y have one question
How can I made the bar to follow the ScreenView of the members, like in your demo, and not to stay on the top, as it happens in my forum?
y lend you the link to our forum:
http://kakkoii-cr.com/foro/
Alrighty....installed this mod though package manager on 1.1.8, using a custom theme for default, applied HTML to the Guest box, checked the box off, applied CSS to the CSS box...didn't get anything.
Went in and manually installed edits, didn't get anything. So, ended up uninstalling it. Nothing here helped. If anyone knows of an easier/better mod like this to install please lemme know.
Now I'm working on a second forum.... it's a 1.1.9, so...
Any chances to make it SMF 1.1.9 compatible?
And I still got that issue I post 2 post ago XD
Anyone have any idea on how to remove the "X" in the upper right of the floating box so that guest and members either have to join or log on? I've got a lot of people I know just closing the floating box and not actually logging in or signing up. It may appear that what I'm asking to do might be seen as annoying the visitor, but I'd really like to prompt people to join / log in.

Go into the index.template.php file for your theme and find:
//Show the efloating bar only if the MOD is enabled for Guest and Guests are not on Register or Login Pages
if ($context['user']['is_guest'] && !empty($modSettings['efloatingbar_mode_guest']) && $context['current_action'] != 'login' && $context['current_action'] != 'register')
{
echo '<div id="topbar">
<span style="float:right"><a href="javascript:void(0);" onClick="closebar(); return false"><strong>[x]</strong></a></span>
', (empty($modSettings['efloatingbar_text_guest'])) ? $txt['efloatingbar_text_guest_default'] : $modSettings['efloatingbar_text_guest'], '
</div>';Make sure it's the first part for guests and backspace out the [X] between the <strong> tags.
At least that worked when I tested it.
Perfect! Thank you so much for your time and effort.
Thanks for the mod! I just installed it on one of my forums 1.1.9
At first nothing worked and I wracked my brain uninstalling and installing, doing it manually and all. The CP section was showing up fine but after the boxes were ticked there was no floating bar...
I just had a good laugh at myself so I'll share what had gone wrong. I am using a custom theme and yes I manually copied and pasted the code exactly how it was given into the index.template... It still wasn't working so I went back and saw the entire code blocked together with the comments. It had pasted like this:
//eFloating Bar Mod by Ricky. if ($context['user']['is_guest'] && !empty($modSettings...
So yea, no wonder nothing was floating... same with the second bit for the index.template...
//Show the efloating bar only if the MOD is enabled for Guest and Guests are not on Register or Login Pages if ($context['user']['is_guest'] && !empty($modSettings['efloatingbar_mode_guest'
All I had to do was separate the comment from the first if statement and thinks are rocking...
Thanks again for the the mod, it should turn some lurkers into members :D
will it work in my forum?

You can edit the Java file to have it either open with each page change or have it stay closed once they close it.

Thanks in advance.

Pls is there a way out?

Thanks dude, i appreciate much.
But on the download page i see:
* o eFloatingbar0.1.zip o (24KB) o [320]
* o eFloatingbar0.1.1.zip o (24KB) o [2710]
* o Manual Install Instructions for SMF 1.0RC1 ParseWhich one do i download? The 'eFloatingbar0.1.zip'? Or the eFloatingbar0.1.1.zip?
Thanks in advance !
The latest one is best. If you run the parser for 1.1.9 it shows the manual install instructions which means it will work in that version.
Sometimes the mod authors forget to update the page to reflect new versions their mods are compatible with.

You need to manually edit the index.template.php file for your theme.

hello Tiribulus can help me with this?
When installed and you select the option "Enable the eFloating Bar Mod for Logged in Users?" it seems to change theme ccs file and the then becomes all large and out of proportion.
And before anyone asks I'll mention that this is not using custom css in the admin options for the mod. It is exactly as installed. The effect shown in the screenshots happens on all themes. It happens as soon as the mod is enabled, even if there is no message content entered in admin.
Looks like we don't have any support on this mod :o :(

Lolz, I am here but due to some problems, not able to support this mod, hopefully soon I will be regular here.
Regarding this box appearing even if closed once, well with some mods like "Ajax Chat" it behaves not as desired, some conflict with javascript used by Chat.
And for guests, it is meant to come again and again, you can solve this problem as Tribulus suggested:

Sorted. Thanks
Hey guys, sorry if this question was already asked, I breezed through the pages but didn't seem to find the answer.
I have this MOD installed on my forum, but after I install it, nothing seems to happen even through the Package Manager.
I'm using SMF 1.1.10, not sure if it works on that version.
My forum is,
www.forumbeats.net
Thank you

You guys are giving me way too much credit. All I did was take somebody else's fix from earlier in this topic and figure out how it applied to my situation. As it turns out that situation seems to be the predominant one people are encountering with this mod.
Where the parser says for the index.template.php file FOR YOUR THEME:
Find
<body>';
Add after
//Show the efloating bar only if the MOD is enabled for Guest and Guests are not on Register or Login Pages
if ($context['user']['is_guest'] && !empty($modSettings['efloatingbar_mode_guest']) && $context['current_action'] != 'login' && $context['current_action'] != 'register')
{
echo '<div id="topbar">
<span style="float:right"><a href="javascript:void(0);" onClick="closebar(); return false"><strong></strong></a></span>', (empty($modSettings['efloatingbar_text_guest'])) ? $txt['efloatingbar_text_guest_default'] : $modSettings['efloatingbar_text_guest'], '
</div>';
}
//Show the efloating bar only if the MOD is enabled for Members
if ($context['user']['is_logged'] && !empty($modSettings['efloatingbar_mode_logged']) && $context['current_action'] != 'login' && $context['current_action'] != 'register')

</div>';
}
it appears many like myself didn't have the '; after <body>. Furthermore, simply adding it does not fix the issue. You also need echo ' at the very end after } .
What I've been doing is finding the section above for people AFTER the mod has been installed which usually looks something like this :

would this make the bar only apear once to the guest once the close it?
No, that makes it appear at all for many people using themes other than the default. Check a page or 2 back where I told somebody else how to change that behavior in the .js file.
very nice mod...will gonna try it soon...

Hi again!
I´m having a problem in with IE users.
When register user close the popup, then open again on next click/refresh page. Bu in FF after close the popup, never open again. How can I fix this for IE?
thanks!
Hello All,
Please help. I am having issues with my index.template.php file while trying to add the codes to it. Please read below my previous conversation. I have attached my index.template.php for your help.

Hello Tiribulus,
I saw a pop-up message on your site and indeed like it. Please, how can I achieve the same thing in my forum website. I am using SMF 1.1.10.
You can check it at http://www.infostridesforum.com
Thank you.
[/quote]
QuoteCheck HERE . Detailed instructions on how I and others got this working are there. It's not that long and it will save you time. Even the exact code for mine is there which you can edit how you want.
QuoteThank you for your prompt response. I tried to install it manually but bringing the following issues:
1. When I input first code in index.template.php, my login form disappear.
2. Although, I experienced some issues as well on placing the second code in index.template.php but after reading through the posts I was able to resolve that.
Please help with first path.
Thanks.
The first edit wasn't there either so I did that one too with the fixed code from a couple pages ago. If this one doesn't work then download your original from here and put it back in your theme directory.
I cannot emphasize enough that I am not much more than a semi dangerous novice tinkerer with PHP code. I usually manage to get my stuff working, but use at your own risk. If I were you starting from the beginning with this mod I'd go ahead with the package manager install, ignore the failure if it's only with this file and then copy this file over. However I you think you said you already did some manual editing.
where is the link to the fix u made?
The mod is not working yet.
Did you put the 2 java files in the default theme directory?
Yes, I did.
Okay if you want to attach the other files:
/Themes/default/languages/Modifications.english.php (utf-8 if you're using that)
/Sources/ModSettings.php
As soon as I get a chance I'll take a look. No offense, but you missed one of the edits in the index.template.php file so maybe you missed something in one of those as well.
Hello sorry to bother again but i need your help.
This is what i got and i need the floting bar to close once the guest close it and not to pop up again,
this is what i got, what should i change? Thank you
I post everything on the very top of this page,

The only thing I can think of is that you are editing a copy of the java file in your theme folder or somewhere else and not the one in the default theme folder. If it's not that then I honestly don't know

Hello, please find attached the files as requested. Thanks.
They look good to me. I dunno. Except for the trivial changes you made to the text of the message the edits are the same and in the right place. Lemme check that index.template.php file again.

More so, how can I insert messages like in your website?
Thank you for your help!
You've gone over my head chief. I don't know how to fix this. There is a conflict somewhere, but I would do you more harm than good if I tried any further.

To a relative simpleton at these things like myself, that could be anything bud. I am betting that some action produced by code for this mod is fighting with some other mod or vice versa that may not be in the same sections or even the same files as the code for this mod at all. I had an instance a while back where a couple lines in one of the source files entirely unrelated to the AEVA mod caused the AEVA CP to come up blank. I only was able to chase it down because the offending mod, which was actually a tweak, had been done recently enough to where I remembered doing it and the AEVA CP worked before that.
I said all that to say that one of these other folks with far greater skills than I will have to help you out. It's kinda disappointing, I really wanted to get this working for you.

It will work with 1.1.0. Check back a couple pages. I bet you're having that same issue with the ; after <body> and echo at the end of the piece.
ok guys! I have Installed the mod manually on my 1.1.10 SMF ...Woot! it works great!
my problem is >:(
what is the hyperlink for the close text
???

what a great mod! I'm running 1.1.10, so had to install it manually. I read through this thread, and found everything I needed to know. I am still playing with the CSS on size, color , position, & etc., and whether I want persistclose on or off.
thanks to everyone involved. ;D

Does for me, but I've had it since 1.19 or 8. It should work though.
From what i get it says that the package might be corrupted or it is not compatible with my 1.1.11 version..shall i do alone the changes or not??
I installed this mod in hope it'd be possible to use the floating bar for Google Adsense ads but couldn't make it work. If anyone has done that please let me know how... well... I updated the mod for SMF 2.0 RC2, see the attachment. It can be installed on Curve via Package Manager automatically but please note this is not an official update.

I installed this mod in hope it'd be possible to use the floating bar for Google Adsense ads but couldn't make it work. If anyone has done that please let me know how... well... I updated the mod for SMF 2.0 RC2, see the attachment. It can be installed on Curve via Package Manager automatically but please note this is not an official update.
Very very thanks it goes very well. working perfect

At least in 1.11 it's in features and options/layout and options
is this mod suitable for 2RC 2.0?
Hi, i have installed this mod and it is great. But i want to add some links in this efloating bar. I want to add the link to register and log in and want to add the logo of the forum. how can i do that? i also want to show the bar in the middle portion on the screen, not in the left.
i am not good at html and i dont know anything about css. so please if you can show me an "model" i will be able to modify it according to my need.
http://bangladeshtalks.com
thanks for this mod.
EDIT: i managed to insert picture and link. but how will i display ad on them or move the bar a little to the right? plz help.
Quick Question
How would I exempt other windows from the bar? Meaning Login and register are exempt, what if I wanted to add another page?
Is there a way to make "the bar" pop up after a time limit delay, like 20-30 seconds?
Instead of as soon as the page loads, like it does now.
Nice Mod
Please update it for SMF 2.0RC3 ;)
Thanks
Thanks again for this Mod.
It's possible shows the floating bar, for guest, for homepage only?
thanks
Antonio
RC3 Support Please...
Does this Mod work with SMF 2.0 RC3?
Thanks

Can any one reply to My Question? Please!!!
the mod is not compatible with SMF RC2 or RC3, the only way is to do it manually...
so if u still want it, do the manual edit...if u try to install I'm sure it will not work..
so the answer to your question is DONT
thus I installed it and run manually it with my 2.0RC3 without problems.

I think it is because you should have it after this line and you do not, try moving it to after this
// Mod authors, once again, if you have a whole section to add do it AFTER this line, and keep a comma at the end.
on another note I cannot see it in my modifications it just will not appear and I do not know why?????????????????????
There are no fields at all,,,,, why why why why,,,,,,,,,,
Correct :s
fixed the first error! as u said it's not there under misc settings.... Now am screwed!
Modified for RC3
Is there a way to add a cookie or something so when the window is closed it does not reappear for a set amount of time? I don't have an issue with harrassing guests, but I think it would be respectable when somebody closes a window that it wouldn't appear after each page load. Maybe set it for 10minutes or something of the sort?
I have problems with this mod on Inferno theme. How can I fix them?

I would also be interested in this feature, too.
This mod is great but would be better if you had the option to pop up a box for admins as it does for guests and members

YES it does! See a live demo here. (http://www.asanctuary.net/yoursanctuary/index.php)
We are running SMF ver2.0 RC3 and installed the mod manually.
The mod does function as described (
only if using default theme).
ahrasis, :)
Made changes as we could throughout our other themes, yet if the theme doesn't have a script folder, it is unlikely to upload the needed script files. Even making all the changes we could, it still
only functions in the default theme.
We realize that this is exactly as described, we are just hopeful that some majic might make it function in other themes that our members prefer. :P
Thank you for this mod! ;D
Take Care, ;)

No, bots can crawl forum if its enabled in admin panel. This mod will not effect them at all.
Wich mod is better?
This or this:
http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=1449 (http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=1449)
I'd say this one.
Btw, this mod should install fine with 1.1.11 but many got problem in installing it and will get this error:
"The package you are trying to download or install is either corrupt or not compatible with this version of SMF"
Just unzip the mod and open package-info.xml. Find:
<type>modification</type>
<install for="1.1.4 - 1.1.99">
<readme parsebbc="true">readme.txt</readme>
<modification>smf1-1mod.xml</modification>
<require-file name="floating-bar-guest.js" destination="$themedir" />
<require-file name="floating-bar-logged.js" destination="$themedir" />
</install>
<uninstall for="1.1.4 - 1.1.99">
<modification reverse="true">smf1-1mod.xml</modification>
<remove-file name="$themedir/floating-bar-guest.js" />
<remove-file name="$themedir/floating-bar-logged.js" />
</uninstall>
And change to:
<type>modification</type>
<install for="1.*">
<readme parsebbc="true">readme.txt</readme>
<modification>smf1-1mod.xml</modification>
<require-file name="floating-bar-guest.js" destination="$themedir" />
<require-file name="floating-bar-logged.js" destination="$themedir" />
</install>
<uninstall for="1.*">
<modification reverse="true">smf1-1mod.xml</modification>
<remove-file name="$themedir/floating-bar-guest.js" />
<remove-file name="$themedir/floating-bar-logged.js" />
</uninstall>
Re-zip all files, upload and install the mod. It should work just fine for SMF 1.1.11.

working on rc4? :-X
how can i make it automatically dissappear for members that have reach a post of 50
Hi!
When will be available update for rc4?
I admin i want to use a javascript for users who have not logged in , eg : guest.
Could you guide me to install the java script for users who have not logged in.
What do you think? This mod will install both scripts.
This looks really nice, but it DOES NOT play well with:
http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=2804
so I had to uninstall it. :(
Hello
i have installed eFloating bar mod on my forum
i have a custom template so i tried to manipulate it just as instructions in the parse section of the Mod
it says in index.template.php find "<body>';" and add something after that
well in my template there is no such a thing
i found
Code:
<body class="avsthem" >
<div id="toparea">
<div id="topbox" class="wrapper">
<div id="userarea">';
if($context['user']['is_logged'])
echo $txt['hello_member_ndt'] , ' <strong>' , $context['user']['name'] , '</strong><br />';
so i added the code right after
Code:
<body class="avsthem" >
<div id="toparea">
<div id="topbox" class="wrapper">
<div id="userarea">';
its working now
but THE PROBLEM IS , NO THE CAPTCHA VERIFICATION IS NOT FUNCTIONAL !!!
im almost sure the problem is caused by index.template.php , as i restore it , the Captcha would be ok ...
suggestions please ?
I run this on my SMF 2.0 RC4 forum, and run the laGusta theme. It looks fine at 1920x1080, but any resolution lower than that. It overlaps the home buttons, can anyone help me with this?
Heres a screenshot of what's happening:
