Disable sign in wanted forums

[VBDev]

This hack lets you choose when you add or edit a forum in the admincp, if you want the signature to be shown or not.



Ce hack vous permet lors de la création ou l'édition d'un forum de choisir si les signatures des users sont affichées ou non.

[Boofo]

Thank you, sir. :)

And it's Boofo, not Bofoo. ;)

[VBDev]

sorry for the nickname ;) corrected :)

[FleaBag]

Nice work, will come in handy for sure.

[Boofo]

With a tweak (to turn sigs on by default for new forums), it works great! What query do I need to run to turn sigs on for all forums that are already there? They are all off now.

[NTLDR]

OK I think the following should do it, updating bitfields isn't as straight forward as a single coloumn ;)



Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------

[Boofo]

I just ran it and the checkbox on a forum that was already there before the hack still says no. ;)

[Boofo]

This also killed sigs in my pm messages. How do I fix that?

[VBDev]

I am sorry I can't help you cose I don't understand the modification of NTDLR

[Boofo]

I am sorry I can't help you cose I don't understand the modification of NTDLR
No, I meant the hack killed the sigs in the pms. ;)

[VBDev]

in the mps ??? yu sure ?

I'll take a look but this is strange

[VBDev]

oh yes you were right:

in includes/functions_showthread.php

Search



Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------



Replace by



Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------




Zip updated !!!

[Boofo]

That almost works. Except now you can't stop the sig from showing when you uncheck the Show your signature checkbox. It shows no matter what.

[VBDev]

Hummmm I'll check that tonight cose now I must go to the uni

edit:

do you mean that it shows in the mps even if you uncheck ?

[Boofo]

Yes. It shows in the pms, no matter what, checked or unchecked.

[VBDev]

As I have no mean to test, could you try that:

Delete the last modifications so that now you just have



Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------



instead of



Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------



And before



Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------



Add



Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------



But I still find it strange so I hope this will fix :)

I changed the way this works. It now is for hide signature in a forum not show. This method works 100% with pms and users options to hide sigs and will be defualt show sigs in all forums. I hope this helps all of you that were having problems with how it was working before.

[VBDev]

lol extremtim you made the things in the other way good idea it's lot more simple to think this way :)

I'll attach your attachment file in the first post thx :)

[Boofo]

And it solved the prtoblem. :)

I am attaching another update that will allow you to turn of the signature checkboxes if that forum doesn't allow signatures. No sense in having a checkbox if sigs aren't allowed in that forum, anyway. Check the code, though. I changed showsign to showsigs throughout the code. Made more sense to me. )
