Staff Page Mod

[vbgamer45]

Is it possible to show avatars or images before the names?

Not currently. I might add that later.

Any word on an rc3 version?
Hacks shows only the rc2 version.

[vbgamer45]

I am rrreally having a hard time getting this to work on my recent upgrade to 11rc3.

I had it on 1.08 and added the codes manually myself since I'm using the Cerberus theme, and it worked great.
Finding my way around the xml file and the index template was no problem.

Now... 11rc3 seems to be a whole new ball game. I've worked it for two days and cannot figure it out.

The mod IS installed on my Cerberus theme, it DOES work but when using the codes specified for the index template, in the XML file, I get this on my menu


And it should be like this;


wow!

The menu function that the XML file is giving me is very much different then the other menu functions in my template, and I cannot figure out how to convert this one.

This is from the staff page XML file;

Code Select Expand

// the [staff list] button
if ($context['allow_view_stafflist'])
echo ($current_action == 'staff' || $context['browser']['is_ie4']) ? '<td class="maintab_active_' . $first . '">&nbsp;</td>' : '' , '
<td valign="top" class="maintab_' , $current_action == 'staff' ? 'active_back' : 'back' , '">
<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=staff">' , $txt['smfstaff_stafflist']  , '</a>
</td>' , $current_action == 'staff' ? '<td class="maintab_active_' . $last . '">&nbsp;</td>' : '';



and this is what my current functions look like;

Code Select Expand

if ($context['allow_search'])
                echo '
<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=search">', ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/' . $context['user']['language'] . '/search.gif" alt="' . $txt[182] . '" style="margin: 2px 0;" border="0" />' : $txt[182]), '</a>', $context['menu_separator'];


I've exhausted myself with options. Could anyone give me a hand? Pulleeeeeeeeze

[vbgamer45]

Just use

Code Select Expand


if ($context['allow_view_stafflist'])
                echo '
<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=staff">', ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/' . $context['user']['language'] . '/search.gif" alt="Staff" style="margin: 2px 0;" border="0" />' : 'Staff'), '</a>', $context['menu_separator'];

vbgamer45,

You are wayyyyyyy under gratified for what you do around here....and how fast you do it. 

I can't tell you how much I appreciate this.

If I told you that I took your snippet there, the one from the XML file, and one from my Cerberus menu function...put them side by side in Word and disected them, would you laugh at me? 

I just had to find out how you did that, and why I wasn't able to come up with it.



And you make it seem so simple now that I look at all three insertions
Much better. I appreciate it very much. Thanks a ton.

I have a question about the staff list and which groups it lists.  I found the filter option in 'features and options' but I still cant stop some of the groups from displaying.

All I want to display are admin, global and local mods, but regardless of what I put in the filter some of the other groups get displayed too.

How does this work exactly?

~thanks

[vbgamer45]

Need to put in the extra group title seperated by a comma.

[perplexed]

I am trying to not have some groups displayed but it still displays some even with comma separation

maybe you mean moderators ?  they can`t be blocked  from staff page 

[perplexed]

no they are not moderators - I want the moderators to display lol.  But what is also displaying are other groups that I have set up on my site - eg I have a group for 'authors' and a group that I put 'banned' members in, both of these groups are showing up even though the neither of the groups have any moderator responsibilities and the banned group have no permissions at all *shrug*

It's a little confusing

Hi!

How can I order my staff members by username?

Actually I have groups ordered by groupname, but the membergroups are with a strange order..., I think that would be prettier that membergroups should appear in alphabetically order as well their boards.

how to install in proton theme?

thank you!

[Vinspire]

how to install in proton theme?

thank you!

You need to make a manual installation in other custom theme by looking into the .xml file

[dracomiconia]

I cant see the other groups, either....

And I see in Staff.template that there are only 2 queries.... Administrators and Moderators:

Grupo1,Grupo2

Well, I haven't read the whole thread (shame on me ), but I don't see

Added contact information for ICQ,AIM,YIM,MSN, PM

in my testforum


I really love your Mods, for example the gallery mod is fantastic, but I don't like the staff mod.
I would prefer something like
this (coded myself. BUT I have to change everything on my own - nothings works automaticly), or this (wbb)

Maybe you could make a Mod, where you can choose, what you want to be displayed on the staff page (name, status -"admin", "mod". i mean-, avatar, on/offline, ICQ,AIM,YIM,MSN, PM.

I guess many people would like this

I could translate the mod as a "thank you" into german


Thanks!


ps: sorry for my bad english :-(

[vbgamer45]

Yeah I am pretty busy at the moment I plan to redo a lot of my older mods
the "Added contact information for ICQ,AIM,YIM,MSN, PM" is only SMF 1.1 RC3 versions.

[Badelehrling]

thanks für the qucik reply

Okay, so I hope you get your old mods redune quickly
