LiveClock [library support]

[checkeredflagrl]

For some reason the plugin is not adding to my site. I changed the setting on the clock to what I want and Enabled it. I don't know why it is not showing in my forum. Can you help?

[Wormopolis]

did you put a target element into the template or h/f?

[checkeredflagrl]

What do you mean by target element? I am kind of new to ProBoards. All I did was add the plugin to my Admin Panel and it's Enabled. I set the settings and clicked Save Changes and its' not appearing.

[Wormopolis]

Check out the instruction on the plugin starting page. you need to put something into your templates or wherever that tells the code where to put the clock.

<span id="liveclock"></span>


it all depends on where you want it to show.

I have installed and enabled the plugin and put the target element in the forum wrapper and the clock is showing perfectly on my pages.  Nobody else can see it however even though I have made it available to 'everyone' and all themes.

This is how I put it in my wrapper.

<p id="welcome"> <span id="liveclock"></span>
{if !$[current_user.is_member]}
Welcome Guest.
{if $[login_link] || $[register_link]}
Please $[login_link]{if $[login_link] && $[register_link]} or {/if}$[register_link].
{/if}
{else}
<span>Welcome $[current_user.name].</span> $[logout_link]
{/if}
</p>

This is what I see, but nobody else sees and I can't figure out why.  I don't see it either when logged in as my test ordinary member.  This is the first attempt to install the clock since the conversion to version 5.

It has to be under permissions then because it isnt user related in any way. what is the URL?

[theeyeshaveit]

Thanks very much for your response.  

I presume you are meaning the URL for the plugin management?

c19.proboards.com/admin/plugins/manage#manage-container-tab

Even when I had it available to 'staff' only, the other members of staff could not see it.

[Wormopolis]

did you add the liveclock span into all the themes? because the theme Im looking at as a guest doesnt have it in there.

[theeyeshaveit]

That may be it although I thought all the other staff members were on the same theme as me.  I have changed all themes and I can see the clock on my test member account now which is a different theme to my mod account so I think it is fixed.

I am new at forum changes and I have not dabbled in this sort of thing before.  This was only the second thing I have done after the falling Xmas symbols and I did not notice the theme drop down selection at the top of the template mod screen.

Thanks very much for the prompt help.

[Wormopolis]

not a problem at all!

v1.2.0 submitted

Clock will now display 12 or 24 hour depending on settings in user profile (unless 24 hour force is checked)
Clock will display dates based on settings in profile (for those that put day before month)

Works like a charm, thanks Wormopolis

I got it centered, bolded and size 3 font right under the top ad, it looks smashing. Namaste moonbeam & Wormopolis

After quite a few hours I've finally got the clock installed exactly where I want it.

The members can see it but the only problem is it is showing my local time (I adjusted it to GMT + 8 hours) as it was only showing GMT. Have since reverted back to GMT but what have I done wrong not to have it pickup the local desktop clock's time? Everyone was seeing my time, now we all get GMT & not local apart from the UK guys

I'm a real newbee with this sort of thing so anything to get this sorted will be appreciated.

This is what my forum wrapper looks like, have I missed a character or something?

[Wormopolis]

Do you have the "force timezone" setting turned on?
