Global Headers and Footers

Iomega0318 · April 23, 2012, 01:19:24 AM

So I know this mod obviously needs some work lol, but it also has one thing missing that bugs the crap out of me.. it's not super important but still lol.. It is missing an icon in the menu, in FF and Chrome they do a nice job "hiding" that it's not there but if you use IE it shows up in the menu as a broken image.. so I fixed it by changing this:

Code Select

                'globalhf' => array(
                    'label' => $txt['globalhf_title'],
                    'file' => 'globalhf2.php',
                    'function' => 'globalhf',
                    'custom_url' => $scripturl . '?action=admin;area=globalhf',
                    'icon' => '',
                    'subsections' => array(
                        'view' => array($txt['globalhf_settings']),
                    ),
                ),

to this:

Code Select

                'globalhf' => array(
                    'label' => $txt['globalhf_title'],
                    'file' => 'globalhf2.php',
                    'function' => 'globalhf',
                    'custom_url' => $scripturl . '?action=admin;area=globalhf',
                    'icon' => 'news.gif',
                    'subsections' => array(
                        'view' => array($txt['globalhf_settings']),
                    ),
                ),

All I did was add "news.gif" into this line:

Code Select

'icon' => '',

How to uninstall this ?

I need to re-install this mod (fresh) after uninstalling.

you may have to manually uninstall it.
That error actually means that you have permissions issues on your server and will likely encounter other mod-install/uninstall issues.

make sure that your Packages/temp directory exists, is chmod 755 (maybe 777) and is EMPTY before you try to install or uninstall mods.

Thanks, it worked

THere wasn't any folder as Temp inside the package folder...I created one and then it listed out the file errors which I manually edited the code as per the info

Labradoodle-360, is there any way to get the "Global Footer Content" to show up on the "Board Index" below the "Info Center" completely instead of being put inside of it like in the old version?

If you look at this site that is running the old version of 2.0, the Global Footer was placed below the Info Center.

Here's what's happening in a test offline forum: (modified "Core" theme)

As you can see, (the test forum is using 2.0.2), when I place something in the "Global Footer" box, it's putting it in the Info Center at the bottom, and not outside of it. Because of that, the normal color (white) I'm using for it to show up on the other pages doesn't show up here (I took that part of the code out so it could be readable in the screenshot).

If you're dead-set on putting the footer in the Info Center on the Board Index, maybe you could put an option in to allow people to allow it to show up outside of the Info Center? Or can you maybe please give me a suggestion on how to fix this on my end?

Thanks.

EDIT: Hmm, seems to be conflicting with the Users Online Today Mod as I un-installed that mod and the Global Footer is showing up on the board index like the site I linked above.... That, or my custom code to get the "Users Logged In Today" to work properly in "core" themes is causing this problem as in the "Default/Curve" theme, this problem doesn't happen...... This is going to be fun.

EDIT #2: Yes.... It's my code. :facepalm: Going to post my problem in the proper thread now.

Ok, I've installed this mod on a site that we've just upgraded from 1.1.16 to 2.0.2.

So, the install of the mod works just fine, but when I go into it an attempt to put stuff into the "Global Footer Content:" section and hit the save button, I get the following error:

Code Select

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: file_put_contents() in /*/*/*/*/aaroads.com/forum/Sources/smfhacks_source/global-hf.php on line 64

What do you think might be the problem?

Your site has installed a very old version of php. Contact your host and see if you can upgrade to PHP 5.

Thanks for pointing that out. We've got it fixed with the webhost and now the mod has been re-installed and is working perfectly.

I use an older Version for Global Header & Footer.

All was working fine, but then i add some SWF-Content, i can see this on the main page of my forum and on the message index from a board.

When i enter a topic for reading, the SWF-Content is missing - only an empty place is showing.

Have somebody an idea?

Thank you in advance

lampshad3 · June 16, 2012, 07:08:56 PM
