UBB.threads PHP Forum Software Community Forums UBB.classic UBB.classic 6 Support How Do You Move The Main Logo Location???

We recently opened a Songwriting Message Board at www.tunesmith.biz

Unfortunately, EVEN my website designer has NO IDEA how to make our new website Logo appear on the right side of the Main Board's Page, instead of the left (like it's pre-set to do)

He says that..."Hacking those scripts that drive the board is over my head. It would require some of the code to be rewritten. And the TRICKY thing about that is, if you change ONE thing over here, it may cause 7 things over there to stop working properly.
I suppose, if I knew WHERE the code that controlled that was, I could play with it and see what happened, but there are thousands of lines of code spread out over 40 scripts that all work together to make the thing run. I wouldn't even know where to start looking for THE SPOT, and I have no idea how to reverse the positions without messing everything up, if and should I ever find it. I Better to leave it alone, I think."

I have seen MANY other InfoPop boards set up in MANY different ways, so I know that it CAN be done... and if you go look at my Logo, you'll see why I want it on the right instead of the left.

Could somebody PLEASE help me out! <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

You could replace the graphic with a small 1x1 blank gif and then add the image in the header with the alignment to the right.. that is what I did with my board.

Edit public_common.pl and any of the other templates that have the $BBTitle tag, and redo the html accordingly. <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

And if you're still having trouble, here is the exact code:

In public_common.pl

*********
FIND
*********

$standard_title_table = qq~
<TABLE border="0" width="$vars_style{TableWidth}">

This is not working, all this does is move the Logo from the Left side, over a couple of inches to the right. It keeps it stuck within the same "parameters" as before. I want to move the Logo over to the FAR RIGHT SIDE OF THE BOARD. And move the text buttons that are on that side, over to the left where the Logo was... basically FLIP FLOP the 2 items.

Can Somebody help with that one? LOL PLEEEEEASE !! <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Al

The code I posted will do that.

Oh !! Thanks... Lemme go try!

Al
PS> will it keep the Logo to the Right on ALL the pages, or JUST the on the mainpage ?

It will keep it on all pages. <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

OK Zach and JC... that worked for the LOGO,

HOWEVER... now the text that flipped over to the right is at the Top of the page.

And the change I wanted is only in effect on the Mainpage, not on any of the the Forum pages.

Can We Fix These Things?

Al
www.tunesmith.biz

In public_common.pl find:

<TD align="left" valign="top" >
<B>
<FONT size="3" face="$vars_style{FontFace}" color="$vars_style{BBTitleFontColor}">$vars_config{BBName}</FONT></B>
<br>
<FONT size="1" face="$vars_style{FontFace}">
$MainButtonsLine
</FONT>
</TD>

and replace with:

<TD align="left" valign="middle" >
<B>
<FONT size="3" face="$vars_style{FontFace}" color="$vars_style{BBTitleFontColor}">$vars_config{BBName}</FONT></B>
<br>
<FONT size="1" face="$vars_style{FontFace}">
$MainButtonsLine
</FONT>
</TD>

That will fix the problem with the Buttons on top. As for not appearing on all pages, I thought public_common.pl would help it work on all pages, but you may have to edit all public*.pl template files. <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Hi Everyone,

my page at www.tunesmith.biz now has the Logo on the right, (on the mainpage) but we still don't know how to move it on the secondary pages. It appears to have 2 codes (the one you told us to change, that fixed the main page and the "Thankyou For Posting" page) and one other, for the Individual Forum pages.

How do we fix the other one, so that our Logo goes to the right side of the board on those too?

It looks silly right now, because when you surf around the message board, the Logo is bouncing from side to side as you change pages...

Al

Is there ANYONE out there who knows how to fix the other (message and posting) pages ???

This really sucks... because now we have it done Halfway, and it looks like the board is Under Construction. Please don't drop us halfway through the process...

PLEASE HELP!!!!

AL

Hmm...The UBB guys are out today, but I'll make sure to find out tomorrow.

THANKYOU SO MUCH !!!!!!!

Ask them to click on this link to my board, and see for themselves what is happening.
www.tunesmith.biz

The mainpage is ok now. But if you click onto any of the posting forums, the Logo shows up on the other side. It looks really dumb being halfway done like that! LOL

Al

Someone else said you may need to make modifications to other public*.pl files in the Templates directory.

For instance, public_forum_page.pl

We changed ALL of those public pl files... and the Logo is STILL on the Left side of the board, on every page but the Main Page. The code for the Main Page is the ONLY code you gave us that worked.

Somebody must know the proper code for the other Logo pages, and the place to go.

Please Help Us, somebody!!

Just to clarify, you've cleared the cache right?

I mailed this page to Dave Dreezer (One of our UBB guys), he will probably be able to help.

Thankyou... it's been a week since we got this HALFWAY done, LOL It will be great to finally complete the job. <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I hope the person you sent it to can help us out.

Al

Dave Dreezer WHERE ARE YOU !!!! LOL

and Yes Graeme, we cleared the cache, that's not the problem. The code needs to be changed in some other location or script to move the Logo to the left hand side of the board on the other pages. We just don't know how. Nobody else seems to know either, so far.

Al

As far as I can tell, you HAVE NOT modified public_forum_page.pl, circa line 44.

Check that please. <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

We had already modified the script you mentioned, based on our search for the word: "BBTitle". We are uncertain which line is line 44. Maybe this modification isn't what it needed... (below is what we did) How should this be modified differently...

Well, we started this post 2 weeks ago. And we still don't have the answer we need.

I think the UBB Product is great... but the tech. section is leaving much to be desired. We explained our problem over and over, in this thread, we put up a link to our site, and waited for two weeks.

Guess our board is just gonna remain as is. I'm really dissapointed.

Al

I asked one of our graphics/templates experts to take over from me on this one but I guess ICQ is having problems (I know I haven't been receiving all the messages I've been sending)..

Someone suggested you make some changes to the align tags on page 1 of this thread. They haven't been made to the code you pasted in.

All I can suggest...

I found our request to be very simple.

We want our Logo to be on the right, not the left side of the board.

You guys sent us a code, We input the code we recieved, and our Logo moved to the right side... HOWEVER... it only moved to the right side on the Main Page. On all the other pages, it's still on the Left.

There must be some code to correct that. You can go to our site at www.tunesmith.biz to clearly see what I mean. When you get there, You'll see it on the right,... but if you click on ANY other page, it will be on the left. There must be another code that controls the back page settings. We need it changed.

The align tags simply shift the Logo back and forth an inch or so... that is NOT the answer.

Does ANYBODY here know how to do this???? ANYBODY ????
