How do I use FTP? / What is FTP?

Copy them to your local PC, (from default theme), then copy them from your local PC to the custom theme...

[punjablovers]

copied the images form package images  to custom theme images folder, but still not showing,

I installed this Mod, but the Radio buttons don't show up. They are broken images. What needs to be done to repair the images?

Thanks in advance for any support.

means you need to copy the images from themes/default/images/bbc into the images/bbc folder of your theme

Awesome, this worked thanks. Now the only issue I am having is inside the specific post it shows as broken image. What would I need to change for this to work?

Code Select Expand

the mod instructions say
[quote]Move the included file "mod_tag.gif" to "./Themes/default/images".
Move the included file "admin_tag.gif" to "./Themes/default/images".
Move the included file "gmod_tag.gif" to "./Themes/default/images".

copy those three from themes/default/images to your theme's images folder

Thanks for the help. I love that the SMF community always helps.

Done.

Thank you Ha²

Registered users can simply edit their messages and delete the text between the tags or both - text and the tags.
Is there any way to avoid this?

[Kindred]

ooh,  I like this.

However, the point brought up by RaveN7 is valid...   the original user can edit out the notes.
maybe set a lock which prevents a user from editing a post that has been "noted"




edit-
meh.... problem....    the moderator comment removes all carriage returns from the comment.

Some of my users were commenting that they missed the old, manual mod comments because we used a different color to notate a mod comment and, despite the icon and bug around it, they were missing the mod comments......    SO...........

If you have a similar problem:

Add the following to the end of install.xml (just BEFORE the </modification> closing tag)

Code Select Expand


<file name="$themedir/css/index.css">
<operation>
<search position="before"><![CDATA[/* Fieldsets are used to group elements. */
]]></search>
<add><![CDATA[
fieldset.mod_comment
{
color: green;
font-style:italic;
}

fieldset.gmod_comment
{
color: #6363ff;
font-style:italic;
}

fieldset.admin_comment
{
color: #e74242;
font-style:italic;
}
]]></add>
</operation>
</file>


the green is the standard staff color on our boards... the gmod and admin colors match the color of the triangle warning icon.

This would be a nice feature! Please Ha²?? Thanks.

[Arantor]

Well, when I originally wrote this mod, that didn't occur to me, and implementing it is beyond complicated. Better solution, the one that I suggested, the one that Aaron's earlier modbreak mod followed... DON'T EDIT THEIR POSTS. There's no reason to edit their posts, just put it in a new post. They can't edit that!

[KensonPlays]

Ah, ok. I will make new posts with "@username" for notes for them. Thanks.

[shoppy]

Thanks very much for this great MOD.

Realy loving it.

I had this problem also using SMF2 RC4. The way I fixed it was to replace the '/n' portion in Subs-Post.php


Replace this:

Code Select Expand


if (allowedTo('allow_mod_tag'))
$parts[$i] = preg_replace('~\[mod(.+?)\[/mod\]~ise', '\'[mod\' . strtr(un_htmlspecialchars(\'$1\'), array("\n" => \'
\', \'  \' => \'  \')) . \'[/mod]\'', $parts[$i]);


With this:

Code Select Expand


if (allowedTo('allow_mod_tag'))
$parts[$i] = preg_replace('~\[mod(.+?)\[/mod\]~ise', '\'[mod\' . strtr(un_htmlspecialchars(\'$1\'), array("<br/>" => \'&#13;\', \'  \' => \' &#32;\')) . \'[/mod]\'', $parts[$i]);




Replace this:

Code Select Expand


if (allowedTo('allow_gmod_tag'))
$parts[$i] = preg_replace('~\[gmod(.+?)\[/gmod\]~ise', '\'[gmod\' . strtr(un_htmlspecialchars(\'$1\'), array("\n" => \'
\', \'  \' => \'  \')) . \'[/gmod]\'', $parts[$i]);


With this:

Code Select Expand


if (allowedTo('allow_gmod_tag'))
$parts[$i] = preg_replace('~\[gmod(.+?)\[/gmod\]~ise', '\'[gmod\' . strtr(un_htmlspecialchars(\'$1\'), array("<br/>" => \'&#13;\', \'  \' => \' &#32;\')) . \'[/gmod]\'', $parts[$i]);




Replace this:

Code Select Expand

if (allowedTo('allow_admin_tag'))
$parts[$i] = preg_replace('~\[admin(.+?)\[/admin\]~ise', '\'[admin\' . strtr(un_htmlspecialchars(\'$1\'), array("\n" => \'
\', \'  \' => \'  \')) . \'[/admin]\'', $parts[$i]);


With this:

Code Select Expand


if (allowedTo('allow_admin_tag'))
$parts[$i] = preg_replace('~\[admin(.+?)\[/admin\]~ise', '\'[admin\' . strtr(un_htmlspecialchars(\'$1\'), array("<br/>" => \'&#13;\', \'  \' => \' &#32;\')) . \'[/admin]\'', $parts[$i]);



As you will notice all that is changed is the /n to <br/>.

After this anything you post there onwards should have spaces between lines, hope this helps.
