I have received 3 emails today asking me for this, is anyone interested? it is a simple file that can replace your existing members.asp. it includes feature member, glowing moderators names (IE Only), daily post rate, and how many days since registration, last post and last visited.

Dayve,

Checked it out and a little bit about your site and only have a couple of questions. How do I get a hold of the code? For the Glowing, Flipping and also in your topic.asp you have at the bottom of the posts the ammount of posts, when they registered last visit and the stars!!!! These are nice mods you have added..

thanks for the feedback. here is my members.asp file

http://www.nineinchnailz.com/forum/members.txt

as for the flip, glow, marquee, additional ranking and so on, I just modified inc_funcitons.asp

http://www.nineinchnailz.com/forum/inc_functions.txt

I just took advantage of some filters that Internet Explorer allows you to use. I have all my moderators names glowing so as to easily identify who they are since our titles do not really reflect who we are. If you look in the inc_functions.asp you will find these lines:


marquee
fString = replace(fString, "<marquee>", "[m]", 1, -1, 1)
fString = replace(fString, "</marquee>", "[/m]", 1, -1, 1)

fString = doCode(fString, "[m]", "[/m]", "<marquee>", "</marquee>")

glow
fString = replace(fString, "<font face='arial' id='glow' style='width:100%;filter:glow();color:ff9900'>", "[glow]", 1, -1, 1)
fString = replace(fString, "</font id='glow'>", "[/glow]", 1, -1, 1)

fString = doCode(fString, "[glow]", "[/glow]", "<font face='arial' id='glow' style='width:100%;filter:glow();color:ff9900'>", "</font id='glow'>")

flip
fString = replace(fString, "<font face='arial' id='flip' style='filter:fliph();width:100%'>", "[flip]", 1, -1, 1)
fString = replace(fString, "</font id='flip'>", "[/flip]", 1, -1, 1)

fString = doCode(fString, "[flip]", "[/flip]", "<font face='arial' id='flip' style='filter:fliph();width:100%'>", "</font id='flip'>")

sound
fString = replace(fString, "<EMBED SRC=""","[sound]", 1, -1, 1)
fString = replace(fString, """ WIDTH=1 HEIGHT=1 HIDDEN=""true"" AUTOSTART=""true"" LOOP=""false"" volume=""100""></EMBED>","[/sound]", 1, -1, 1)

fString = doCode(fString, "[sound]","[/sound]","<EMBED SRC=""",""" WIDTH=1 HEIGHT=1 HIDDEN=""true"" AUTOSTART=""true"" LOOP=""false"" volume=""100""></EMBED>")


custom color (use hex value)
fString = replace(fString, "<font id=custom color=""#","[c=", 1, -1, 1)
fString = replace(fString, "</font id=custom>","[/c]", 1, -1, 1)
fString = replace(fString, """>","=]", 1, -1, 1)





fString = replace(fString, "[c=", "<font id=custom color=""#", 1, -1, 1)
fString = replace(fString, "[/c]", "</font id=custom>", 1, -1, 1)
fString = replace(fString, "=]", """>", 1, -1, 1)




here is a DEMO

oh as for my topic.asp, yeah, that I heavily modified and rearranged but the post stamping mod is something I worked on with work mule, who deserves most of the credit, I am presently trying to package this up but it is hard because as you have noticed, my topic.asp is really modified. I got the moderators names to glow in topic.asp by doing this:


<% if rs("M_LEVEL")>=2 then %>
<font style="filter:glow(color:red,strength:4); width:100%" color="orange" face="<% =strDefaultFontFace %>" size="<% =strDefaultFontSize %>"><b><% =ChkString(rs("M_NAME"),"display") %></a>
<% else %>
<font color="<% =strForumFontColor %>" face="<% =strDefaultFontFace %>" size="<% =strDefaultFontSize %>"><b><% =ChkString(rs("M_NAME"),"display") %></a>
<% end if %>


hope this helps, here is a copy of my topic.asp but it won't work for you because of the database edits but if you are comfortable with reviewing the code then you can get a jump start on how this was accomplished

I can't use shadow codes at my site because my site is already too dark but yes, I can make the code for shadow, OR you can take what I have done above and make them yourself. Are you familiar with the shadow code? The code for drop shadow is:

filter:DropShadow(color=#C0C0C0, offx=3, offy=3)

just apply your own color, and offsets. this should be easy for you to insert in the above code example to make your own...

and yes, you will have to update your inc_codes but that is not too hard to figure out if you look at the code closely, if you still find yourself stuck, just let me know...I'm just kind of busy at this very moment.

which mod?? the members mod? you should be able to just copy the members.txt file I posted above and save it as members.asp.

[shadow]yourtext[/shadow]

can be accomplished using this:

inc_functions.asp
=================

fString = replace(fString, "<font face='arial' id='shadow' style='filter:DropShadow(color=#C0C0C0, offx=2, offy=2); width:100%'>", "[shadow]", 1, -1, 1)
fString = replace(fString, "</font id='shadow'>", "[/shadow]", 1, -1, 1)

fString = doCode(fString, "[shadow]", "[/shadow]", "<font face='arial' id='shadow' style='filter:DropShadow(color=#C0C0C0, offx=2, offy=2); width:100%'>", "</font id='shadow'>")

Myself as well, I am using the 3.3 release too, right out of the box, only changed a few things so far. Click on members and i get all kinds of left over code mixed in with scripting errors. All I did was rename my members.asp and add yours...any clue?

Where is that events mod i keep seeing on most of the experienced forum gurus here, downloaded a build called country mouse i think, boy the bells and whistles this one has is awsome...how is the best way to approach these mods guys, I mean keeping up with the fixes and builds are hard enough, making sure i dont over write previous fixes, just trying to be carefull, but sure would like add some of these mods. so far I got the faq mod running and setup, the moderators mod and thats it so far.

well better get busy reading more post...you guys have done some very good work, should feel proud..heck i do and i am just learning ;)

I am not using 3.3 because I have modded my forum way too much and I am not going to start all over again which I think you guys can appreciate. murphy's law here, if it works do screw with it

From what it sounds 3.3 has some different things going on that will prevent my version of members.asp to work. Wish I had time to review the new forum but I just don't have time, so from now on I will state that any edits I make will be tested on 3.1 sr4 for Access/SQL databases... sorry
