Question modify imported tab views

[Captive Reefs]

I imported the tabs from dbtech. A few need tweaking with my skin. I don't see the html message box for these...where can I edit them?


For example Last Activity...it is only displaying a ":" instead of "Last Activity".

And Latest Thread is causing the postbit to expand beyond the container. I need to add a line break and a text wrap or something for long thread titles.


Also...not sure if this is a vbactivity setting or a tab setting...but I just imported some awards and they are showing up twice. Other items are not showing up twice, so not sure if there is another template hook that needs to be removed? Or is there a setting on vbactivity controlling the postbit placement that I need to change?

Only the standard wrapper template can be edited, it's not possible to make the HTML for the view itself customisable.

For example Last Activity...it is only displaying a ":" instead of "Last Activity".

Please ensure you've also imported the latest product XML file.

And Latest Thread is causing the postbit to expand beyond the container. I need to add a line break and a text wrap or something for long thread titles.

Due to the aforementioned that's not possible

Try setting manual deployment for mods that have that setting, or uncheck "Below Posts" for others

Ok...figured out the double entry for the awards.

I just downloaded the install file last night. I don't see the phrase dbtech_postbittabs_last_activity in my phrases...

It looks like if I reimported (or maybe better off to export since I have customized some stuff now), I could do a couple basic edits to the html code in the import file?

 

[Fillip H.]

I mean the product XML, not the export XML.

 

[Captive Reefs]

Yeah...shouldn't it be the latest version if I downloaded it last night? Or has there been a change? I installed version 1.0.4.

Can word-wrap: break-word be used in the latest thread tab to keep the length from screwing with the legacy postbit? Adding a line break after Latest Thread might help a little as well. This post is a good example of it breaking the formatting.

 

[Fillip H.]

Try re-downloading it just now, see if that helps

 

[Captive Reefs]

Nope...same. "Last Activity" not showing up.

 

[Fillip H.]

You'll need to refresh the postbit a couple times to ensure the View code has updated. I just confirmed on my testing environments that the phrase does indeed show up now

 

[Captive Reefs]

hrmmm...how long does that usually take?


While this is involving vbactivity, it also involves me getting the postbit tab to display properly...so rather than start another thread, where is the code that is in this variable stored: $reward[pre]? How can it be edited? I went ahead and deleted it and put my own code in the template, but for future knowledge, I'd like to know where to edit the variable.

Also I don't see where class="info" is defined? I went ahead and added some css for it and it seemed to work. I set the div to overflow:hidden to deal with the thread title length issue. i would rather see a word-break type solution...but at least my format is preserved now.

 

[Captive Reefs]

"Last activity" still not showing.

 

[Fillip H.]

Could you please PM me with FTP information and an AdminCP account that has at least Can Admin Phrases?

 

[Fillip H.]

You hadn't re-uploaded the files, I performed the change on your files manually and it works now

 

[Captive Reefs]

Oh...I thought you said to reimport the xml earlier. Thanks!

 

[Captive Reefs]

Disregard....

It's just the <img> tag for the trophy, I believe it's hardcoded.
