Affiliates System

[Kindred]

looks like you pasted something into the english file incorrectly...     get rid of the n's around that

[FlashUK1983]

I really didn't see how that would work, seeing as I didn't paste anything, I just installed the mod, but I tried it anyway.

All that did was change the arror to:
8: Undefined index: affiliates
File: MY SITE URL/Themes/default/languages/index.english.php (eval?)
Line: 132

[Kindred]

please display your lines 125-135 from that file?

[FlashUK1983]

Is there an easier way tpo get those lines, without attempting to sit and count them all?

[Kindred]

get a real text editor with line numbering?

UltraEdit, TextEdit Plus, notpad++, ConText

[SA™]

that is correct the way it is you will get errors like that cos it not configard proply

Undefined index: naffiliatessn  mean you havent set  number of affiliates you want propaly so if you have 2 affiliates you put 2 in the box

[FlashUK1983]

Thanks,
It seems to have brought on a few more errors, but I'm thinking that they might iron out when I get my affiliates on board.

I'll come back if the problem persists.

[SA™]

yeah thats the proplem with the 118 version if its not configard right or at all you get errors i dont use 118 i use smf 2 version wich is different but if fi rember correctly if you add an affiliate the error should go?

For those who wish to use the code on SimplePortal:

Using a "php" block:

Code Select Expand

global $context, $settings, $options, $txt, $scripturl, $modSettings;
   if (!empty($modSettings['enable_marquee']) && (!empty($modSettings['affiliates'])))
                     echo '<marquee behavior="scroll" onmouseover="this.stop()" onmouseout="this.start()"><span style="text-align:center;" class="smalltext">' . parse_bbc($modSettings['affiliates']) . '</span></marquee>';


It will use whatever code you have in the "Board" box.
You can use this with the board enabled or not.

I tried using this and I have affiliates but when I enable this on SP it shows the Affiliates box but it doesn't have the affiliates in it. Why?

I tried the affiliates in an html block.

Didn't realise there were so many on the forum.

I should imagine we have to add the affiliates ourselves. Ok if theres only a few otherwise......

[Chit-Chat ChatterBox Boss]

So what should I do to get the affiliates to show in the SP? (I already have affiliates in the normal affiliate section)

[SA™]

tyhe code you tryed using is for ealyer versions will not work with the latest version if sp alowes you to use ssi the you can use

ssi_affiliates()

or

ssi_random_affiliate()

id odnt know sp well so i dont know if you can use ssi in block ill have a look at the week end


or you can just try use thi code in a phpox maybe

Code Select Expand

global $smcFunc, $context, $settings, $modSettings, $txt, $scripturl;

$result = $smcFunc['db_query']('', '
SELECT a.id_affiliates, a.image, a.description
FROM {db_prefix}affiliates AS a
WHERE  approved = 1
ORDER BY a.id_affiliates DESC'
);

$affiliates = array();
while ($row = $smcFunc['db_fetch_assoc']($result))
{
$affiliates[] = array(
'id' => $row['id_affiliates'],
'image' => $row['image'],
'description' => $row['description'],
);
}
$smcFunc['db_free_result']($result);

echo '
<marquee scrollamount="', $modSettings['How_Fast_To_Scroll'],'" onmouseover="scrollAmount=', $modSettings['How_Fast_To_Scrollmo'],'" onmouseout="scrollAmount=', $modSettings['How_Fast_To_Scroll'],'">';

foreach ($affiliates as $item)
echo '
<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=affiliates;sa=out;idaff=', $item['id'],'" target="_blank">
<img src="', $item['image'],'"  onload="ImageResizer.createOn(this);"  title="', $item['description'],'" alt="', $item['description'],'" /></a>';

echo '
</marquee>';

works with portamx

[Chit-Chat ChatterBox Boss]

Ok that code works but can we get it to scroll like the SA Affiliates does?

[SA™]

it allrady should if you set up the scroll ammount and that in admin

[Chit-Chat ChatterBox Boss]

Ok I see where to set it. But when I set the numbers like I have setup for the SA Affiliates in the admin panel 3 for scroll without mouse over and 1 for scroll with mose over. I set that for this and 3 is super fast and 1 is the speed of like 3 in the admin panel. How can this be adjusted, also how can I change it to scroll in the other direction?

Here is my code I set it up for the scroll part.

Code Select Expand


   echo '   
<marquee scrollamount="', $modSettings['How_Fast_To_Scroll'],'" onmouseover="scrollAmount=1', $modSettings['How_Fast_To_Scrollmo'],'" onmouseout="scrollAmount=3', $modSettings['How_Fast_To_Scroll'],'">';

ok setting from my site

Marque Scroll Speed =10
Marque Scroll Speed On Mouse Over =1

Marque Scroll Direction = default is set to left you can switch it scroll right

[Chit-Chat ChatterBox Boss]

If I set it to 10 that would be so fast you couldn't read it my 2 is about your 10 speed (for the SP). I set onmouseover = 0 and that still scrolls at about the mouse over speed I want. But with my notmouseover speed set to 1 it still is half as fast as I want.

And I don't see where to change this

Marque Scroll Direction = default is set to left you can switch it scroll right

[SA™]

hmm i dont fully understand what you are saying i have my setting like i showed you and it doesnt go fast see at my site

And I don't see where to change this

it in affiliates admin under Marque Scroll Speed On Mouse Over
