examp

  1. The "New Thread" Button should be moved over cause it does not look right well to me it does not.
  2. This is a clean install of MyBB 1.6.10 and there are no threads yet, but yet it says "1 new thread" . If disable plugin it goes back to "New Posts"

Not that these are a big deal just thought I would point it out.

WildcardSearch commented 11 years ago

The first thing is something that would be a matter of preference for each admin, but the changes I have planned for ASB 1.7 will allow admin to make those decisions and edit replacement preferences for each script.

The new thread thing is a bug and will be looked into.

Thanks :smile:

I can't reproduce this error.

Howman commented 11 years ago

Yea just checked and number 2 is defiantly fixed in your 2.0 not doing it here any longer Is there a fix for number 1 in your 2.0 yet

WildcardSearch commented 11 years ago

Oh yes. You can edit all aspects of how the forumdisplay script is handled. Just go to ACP->Config->Advanced Sidebox->Manage Scripts tab and have a look at the options when editing Forum Display script-- if you need help, just refer to the help docs (link at the bottom of the page)

Howman commented 11 years ago

Could you give me an example of 1. cause every time I do something to the Update Forum Display the sidebox disappears and I got to uninstall and reinstall pluging to get side box back

WildcardSearch commented 11 years ago

Well I'd have to know a little more about your template set up and how you want it to look.

To me, it looks like you want to set the Forum Display script to Header Search: '{$header}' and Footer Search: '{$footer}' but I can't be sure. Incidentally those are the only two things you should have to change, and you shouldn't have to re-install to restore anything.

Just export the script before you modify it-- if it has problems either delete it and restore (import) it, or keep trying to you get it right.

I just waned the newthread botton moved inline with the other newthread botton so the botton moved to the left the size of the side box which is 160

Howman commented 11 years ago

pressed wrong botton

WildcardSearch commented 11 years ago

Did you try what I suggested?

Howman commented 11 years ago

ok put {$header} in Header Search Text and {$footer} in Footer Search Text hit update and sidebox dispersers

WildcardSearch commented 11 years ago

I goofed. I should have said also to change the template being edited to forumdisplay instead of forumdisplay_threadlist . . . sorry.

Is there away to move the sidebox down 5px

Now that the side box HTML is mostly available to admin for editing (Global Templates that start with 'asb_') you should be able to do a lot more in terms of fine tuning.

I have only realized that while I see it as a very simple process because of my intimate knowledge of the template editor class, others may find it a bit hard to work with. So, take a look around and see if you can do what you want to do and if not, always feel free to ask and I will try to help.

May I contact you have a Idea for another plug-in would try it my self but would not know where to start.

Of course, you have been very nice to help and report, I will be glad to hear your ideas. :smile:

Oh will your sideboxs work on mybb 1.7

I have installed ASB 1.7.x (can't remember which maint. point) on the feature branch of MyBB at GitHub a couple weeks ago with very few issues. It did work just fine and no adjustments were needed. There was an issue with how the setting were displayed in the modal in ACP add/edit side box but it was minor.

I have high hopes that it might be a good conversion but in any event I will get it there even if I have to maintain two separate versions, promise.

I guess you can prity much close this too

Will do. Thanks for being involved in ASB :smile:
