Posting Activity Plus [library support]

[Former Member]

It looks like the update is in the library now, Wormopolis, but it's for the Posting Activity plugin, not the Posting Activity Plus plugin, is that intentional? xD

[Wormopolis]

Plus already had the re-target.. hmm..

[Former Member]

Hmm I use Plus and I put the re-target code in and it didn't work (I'm using the tabs in mini-profile, though)

[Wormopolis]

ok.. I just redid the Plus code v1.1.6

submitted to library.

if you arent using custom bars or board specific boards, you dont have to use plus version. that way you arent wasting a key slot

Wormopolis,

Alright, just updated and it isn't working still, am I putting it in wrong? I tried:

<span class="post_act" style="display:none;">$[user.registered_on]</span>
<div style="display:none;">Posts: $[user.posts]</div>

which caused it to show up but still at the bottom, not where I was attempting to locate it (which is the bottom of my first tab called Sums here). I then tried

<span class="post_activity" style="display:none;">$[user.registered_on]</span>
<div style="display:none;">Posts: $[user.posts]</div>

and

<span class="post_activity" style="display:none;">$[user.registered_on]</span>
<div class="post_activity" style="display:none;">Posts: $[user.posts]</div>

and both caused the meters to disappear entirely

[Wormopolis]

The post_activity one is the target. You don't want a display:none on that. The post_act is the hider that contains register date. Post count doesn't need to be in there unless you changed the default display of it. And if it is added, just goes into a plain span with no class and style display:none

[Former Member]

Alright that makes sense, thank you, Wormopolis! Will post the result in a moment..

[Former Member]

Ohkay, I believe I followed your specifications correctly, Wormopolis, but it's still malfunctioning. It is showing up where I want it (the bottom of the first tab) but now the meters are odd. I have two meters that should be showing up; one is the general meter and the second is either the IC or OOC Weekly meter which depends on which board you are looking at. Note that my template does have Posts: $[user.posts] altered so I have it on display none. In the location that I want my meter showing up, I have tried:

If I put

<span class="post_act" style="display:none;">$[user.registered_on]</span>
<div style="display:none;">Posts: $[user.posts]</div>
<span class="post_activity"></span>

then the specific bar (weekly OOC) shows up and the general meter shows up twice.

If I put

<span class="post_act" style="display:none;">$[user.registered_on]</span>
<span class="post_activity"></span>

then only the specific bar (weekly OOC) shows up, no general bar.

What is it I'm doing wrong?

[Wormopolis]

this wasnt written to expect multiple targets in the same mini profile. if you dont have a way for it to get a post count, then there wont be a general bar. there is no way around that.

what should be happening is both custom and general bar should show up in the same place. why you have a general meter twice I dont know about...

[Former Member]

I'm sorry, your post slightly confused me, are you basically saying that
<span class="post_act" style="display:none;">$[user.registered_on]</span>
<div style="display:none;">Posts: $[user.posts]</div>
<span class="post_activity"></span>
is correct and simply malfunctioning? If you'd like, I can send you my mini-profile template but it is huuge and I'm not sure it'd be of any help.

v1.1.7 pushed to library

when it gets accepted, download that and I will tell you the next step.

I changed the target class to be "post_activity_target" to fix the double bar thing. basically I forgot the bar itself already has the class "posting_activity" and therefore it was pushing the general bar into both locations.

however, since you are wanting the custom bar to show in a different spot from the general bar, you will need to do something special

[Former Member]

I'm wanting them both to show up at the bottom of the first tab, Sums, does that count as a different spot? Thank you very much, Wormopolis, I'm glad you figured out what was causing the problem!

[Wormopolis]

Library accepted

[Wormopolis]

I thought you wanted the general bar to be somewhere different then custom bar? if you did, that can be done now too, but its convoluted.

if you are okay with them being in the same sopt, create an element with class="post_activity_target"

[Former Member]

Nah, I was just wanting them stacked on top of each other at the bottom of the first tab.

Alright, I put in <span class="post_act" style="display:none;">$[user.registered_on]</span>
<div style="display:none;">Posts: $[user.posts]</div>
<span class="posting_activity_target"></span>
and it's not showing up where I'm placing the code like it's supposed to (though good news is that there are no duplicate bars and it is indeed showing up, at least!)
