Collapsing ad-feature block

[AfterWorldForum]

Hi,

Not sure if this would be considered a mod question. If so, please feel free to move it.

I have been trying to create a custom block of code, similar to the featured ad block on the ForumHome page for vBulletin. Your block, however, is collapsible, whereas mine does not seem to want to do this.

I have checked your template used, and found this snippet of code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

I tried using that in my code as well, but all it does is jump to the top of the page. Could you be so kind as to supply me with a hint of where else I would have to make an alteration for this to work properly? It'd be much appreciated

Oh, and I found a minor bug in your template a tiny bit below the code from above:

Content visible to verified customers only.

This is in the output of the HTML, but also present in the template itself. It's still using the vB3 way of variables, instead of the new

Content visible to verified customers only.

syntax

Thanks!

Peter

Yes if your trying to create some type of new blocks outside our code or even inside the code thats a mod question.

we support what we write.

I beleive even the code your referring to is a mod not part of the actual photopost classifieds code

There is a vb4 hack to place classifieds content into vb4 home page and profile in the mods corner as well as a mod to even display a block of ads on the cms

Hi Chuck,

That does seem familiar. Feel free to move the thread to the mods section then.

In the meantime, would you happen to have any hints as to where I could be looking for the collapse functionality? I tried searching the regular vB forums, but came up blank so far.

Thanks!

Try downloading and using the classifieds vb4 plugin I released in the mod corner

Chuck,

I have yours installed It's what I used as an example. I also managed to figure out why mine was not collapsing. It was rather late last night, and I did not realise that the name of the two ids in the block ought to be related.

So my collapse id was "collapse_a", and my second id was "a_foo". Changing the collapse id to "collapse_a_foo" did the trick for me

Thanks for your help

Peter

How do I change to Non-Collapse style?, Below is the code for collapse in pp-inc.php from photopost classified, what is the style code for non-collapse? please advice. Thanks.

$ppstyle = $vbcollapse[collapseobj_latest];

Your would have to edit whatever template where ever your talking to remove a collapse icon. There are many templates there is no specific option to get rid of collapse icons. You can ask mod questions in the mod forum for any mods you wish. The question above is indeed a mod question about a vb4 mod. Your last question on this forum was about a vb3 mod ad block. you can find any code and html for such a mod under the actual mod your installed on your vb3 forum under your plugins section.
