Now check "I agree with licence" and than Download:

Save file:

Open that:

And extract to background or some map:

Now open filezilla or another file manager (that way it will be faster done) and move map with images to map images of your forum:

Like this:

Now go at your admin cp -> Templates & Style -> Import a theme and click "Open" at "Import from" (see image):

When it's choosen, choose "Ignore version compitablity" and click button "Import theme":

Now it should be uploaded and you will get this:

WARNING! This is replacing both plain and HTML messages with eval'd code.
Make sure to backup modified file for further update backup.



Hello

so. as first step download attachment file "class_mailhandler.php" and put it inside inc folder (i've used 1.8.3 one for edits).

.php   class_mailhandler.php (Size: 8.32 KB / Downloads: 12)

Then:
In global templates, make "html_mail" template and stylize it as you want to do. I'll provide here my code:

Code:
<body style="background: #F0F0F0;color: #333;text-align: left;line-height: 1.4;font-family: Segoe UI, Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, Sans-Serif;font-size: 13px;padding: 0;margin: 0;">

<div style="width: 100%;z-index: 9000;background-color: black;color: white;height: 60px;">
        <div style="">
            <ul style="float: left;list-style: none;margin: 0;padding: 0;">

[Deprecated since MyBB 1.8.4] noCaptcha with MyBB

December 4, 2014, 8:54 am
$
0
0
WARNING! And over again. This tutorial require core edits inside class_captcha.php file.

Well. noticed info above?
So let's start.

1. Make template edit.
Find member_register_regimage_recaptcha (let me help you. Is located at Member Templates).
Find:
Code:
<script type="text/javascript" src="{$server}/challenge?k={$public_key}"></script>

And replace it with:
Code:
<script src='https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api.js'></script>
<div class="g-recaptcha" data-sitekey="{$public_key}"></div>

2. Make core file edit.
I think best solution would be telling which line of code were replaced. so:
At line 283 (as of latest commited file) find:
PHP Code:
283. $challenge = $mybb->input['recaptcha_challenge_field'];
284. $response = $mybb->input['recaptcha_response_field'];
[[285 --> 327]]
328. $answer = explode("\n", $response[1]);
329. if(trim($answer[0]) != 'true')
330. {
331. // We got it wrong! Oh no...
332. $this->set_error($lang->invalid_captcha_verify);
333. }
334. }
335. }
336. } 

And replace everything with:
PHP Code:
$response = $mybb->input['g-recaptcha-response'];

if(!$response || strlen($response) == 0) {
    $this->set_error($lang->invalid_captcha);
} else {
    $google_url = "https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/siteverify";
    $url = $google_url."?secret=".$mybb->settings['captchaprivatekey']."&response=".$response."&remoteip=".$session->ipaddress;
                
    $nocaptchareply = @file_get_contents($url);

    $res = json_decode($nocaptchareply, true);
    if(!$res['success']) {
        $this->set_error($lang->invalid_captcha_verify);
    }
} 

3. Language edits (OBSOLETE):
go to your member.lang.php and find:
PHP Code:
$l['verification_note'] = "Please enter the text contained within the image into the text box below it. This process is used to prevent automated processes.";
[....]
$l['error_regimageinvalid'] = "The image verification code that you entered was incorrect. Please enter the code exactly how it appears in the image.";
$l['error_regimagerequired'] = "Please fill out the image verification code to continue the login process. Please enter the code exactly how it appears in the image."; 

And edit them as you'd like to be appared. For example:

PHP Code:
$l['verification_note'] = "Please checkbox a square. This process is used to prevent automated processes.";
[....]
$l['error_regimageinvalid'] = "Please click the checkbox.";
$l['error_regimagerequired'] = "Something went wrong. Please retry again."; 

And that's all Smile
More info about noCaptcha can be found [here] and [here]

Edit: This tutorial will be deprecated (as of MyBB Developers included noCaptcha in next release).

[HOWTO]SSL Gravatar Avatar

Hey Guys,

I know this is really simple but i thought i would post it just incase, if you have done it any other way please let me know.

If you want to make the Gravatar Avatars SSL you need to edit usercp.php in the forum ROOT directory.

Then,

On line 2161: "avatar" => "http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/{$email}{$s}.jpg"

Change this too: "avatar" => "https://www.gravatar.com/avatar/{$email}{$s}.jpg"

Also in admin/modules/user/users.php :

On line 647: "avatar" => "http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/{$email}{$s}"

Change this too: "avatar" => "https://www.gravatar.com/avatar/{$email}{$s}"


P.S: I think this may have to be done before people set there avatar as it may be stored in the DB, i will investigate this further.


This will then make the avatars get requested using https keeping that green padlock on your ssl secure sites Big Grin

AsynC

[VPS/Dedi] Set up a ramdisk file cache

January 2, 2015, 4:00 am
$
0
0
Skills needed: Ability to work with the terminal.
Requirements: At least a bit of ram over and linux.

Information:
I recently moved my cache away from memcached as some/most times memcached would be the slowest thing to be ran, specially for bigger forums taking sometimes 200 ms to do its things.

I tested quite many cachehandlers (Including my own) and found that apc was ok, db was oh dear no, and files was quite good if sat up with a ramdisk.

So how to set it up "properly":
Step 1: Make the folder
Start by making a folder in the cache folder called "cache" so it's /MYBB_ROOT/cache/cache.

Why: Basically when you restart the files in the folder will be gone and cuz the themes are stored there it isn't really ideal.

Code:
mkdir /var/www/cache/cache


Step 2: Chmod
Simply chmod the folder thus php can write to it.

Step 3: Make the ramdisk
Open /etc/fstab with your favorite editor (I prefer nano) and append to its own line,

Code:
tmpfs /path/to/cache/cache tmpfs size=200m,mode=0775,uid=www-data,gid=www-data 0 0

Do note:
Change the "/path/to/cache/cache" to your path

200m to the amount of ram is should max be able to use, it will not use ram that isn't being used by the files thus even if you insert it as 200m if your files are just 13 MB it will not use the full 200 MB only 13 MB

www-data is PHP-FPM & nginx; apache might use different so use a bit of googling skills to find out what yours uses.

Step 4: Mount the ramdisk
As easy as running the following command,

Code:
mount -a

Step 5: Fixing the cachehandler
Open up /inc/cachehandlers/disk.php and replace every

Code:
MYBB_ROOT."/cache

With

Code:
MYBB_ROOT."/cache/cache


Step 6: Activating it

Open up /inc/config.php and find

Code:
$config['cache_store']

Set it to

Code:
$config['cache_store'] = 'files';

Step 7: Verifying that it works
  • Debug view
    • Go into the debug view of the index, showthreads etc (?debug)
    • If it keeps writing to the database (prefix_datacache) it's not correctly writing to the files
  • See if it has saved the cache to files
    • Simply just check the cache folder.

And you're done.

For a bit more advanced people who like to save space and stuff:
Step 1: Install what you need

Install igbinary

You can jump over this and replace the igbinary_ in the file.

Step 2: Enable it

Ehm pretty straight forward in their installation guide

Step 3: Install the cachehandler

You could either write it to a new file or use disk.php, I prefer making it short so disk.php it is.

Replace the disk.php file with:
PHP Code:

            $dir = opendir(MYBB_ROOT."/cache/cache");
            while(($file = readdir($dir)) !== false)
            {
                if($file == "." || $file == ".." || $file == ".svn" || !is_file(MYBB_ROOT."/cache/cache/{$file}"))
                {
                    continue;
                }

                $total += filesize(MYBB_ROOT."/cache/cache/{$file}");
            }
            return $total;
        }
    }
} 

Step 4: Secure the folder

Anyone can read the files if you use this thus for nginx

Code:
location /cache/cache {
   deny all;
}

[Performance] Upgrading Tables To Innodb

January 6, 2015, 5:59 am

This script will convert all your tables to the much better Innodb storage engine than MyISAM.  This is very helpful for larger forums with many users online.  If you do not have MySQL version 5.6 or higher you have three choices to make: 
1) Upgrade to MySQL 5.6 or higher ( you may need to contact your host for this. )
2) Keep Full Text Index searches and let the mybb_posts and mybb_threads tables stay as MyISAM
3) Drop the index on message for the mybb_posts table and the index subject on the mybb_threads table.

PHP Code:
<?php

define("IN_MYBB", 1);
define("NO_ONLINE", 1);
define("NO_PLUGINS", 1);
require_once "global.php";
if(!$mybb->usergroup['cancp'])
{
error_no_permission();
}
$tablelist = $db->list_tables($config['database']['database'], TABLE_PREFIX);
foreach($tablelist as $table)
{
$db->write_query("ALTER TABLE "  . $table . " ENGINE=Innodb");
echo "Converted table $table to Innodb.<br />";
}
echo "Table conversion complete.<br />";
?>

Once the file is executed, you should delete it off your server.

How to make a Trial Staff Group

Please do not comment anything negative on this, I just thought this would be a good idea for a usergroup, and these are the settings I thought would be good.

Do you want to hire some more moderators but need to earn the persons trust first?

Well here is a good usergroup to make to test moderators trust.

First, create a group called Trial Mod or Trial Staff or etc.

Then under the first tab you should set these settings:
[Image: db069605aff6447a8877913e6eb9872e.png]

Then go under Users and Permissions and go to Private Messaging and Make sure they are all selected (Optional)



Under Misc...
[Image: 5338d7ef4e68ccf5b1b563d1718e6085.png]


Then under Mod Cp, you can set the options you want, but these are my settings (I don't use birthdays on my forum):

You can also use custom plugins if you want to set more permissions.

This slight addition allows you to add a sound notification for DVZ Shoutbox when a new message is posted, using its internal hooks system.


1. Open the attached file and upload the dvz_shoutbox.mp3 file to the images/ directory on your server

.zip   dvz_shoutbox.zip (Size: 1.27 KB / Downloads: 3)

2. Open the dvz_shoutbox template (Global Templates) and add the following code after {$javascript}
Code:
<script>
dvz_shoutbox.callbacks['update'].push(function(){
   if ($('#shoutbox .entry.new').length) {
       var audio = new Audio(rootpath + '/images/dvz_shoutbox.mp3');
       audio.volume = 0.2;
       audio.play();
   }
});
</script>

This tutorial will show you how to make your user's avatars round.

Screenshot:

[Image: 4947505225.png]


Step 1: Go to: Admin CP ---> Templates & Style ---> Click on the name of your theme. (By Default it should be Default or MyBB 1.8) ---> Add Stylesheet

File Name: Doesn't matter, just make sure you end it with .css

Attached to: Globally

Then choose: Write my own content

Then write this code:


Code:
.post .post_author div.author_avatar img {
border-radius: 55%;
 transition:all 0.3s ease;
}

And now you are done.

If you want the avatars to become square when you hover your mouse cursor over them then add this code under the code you wrote above


Code:
.post .post_author div.author_avatar img:hover {
border-radius: 0%;
transition:all 0.3s ease;
}

If you don't like the smooth animation just remove transition:all 0.3s ease; in both of the codes.

Hoped this helped.  Smile

How to make a Sexy Login Page

So You Want a Cool Splash Page?


Alright, so this took me ages to figure out. And finally, I found a much less complex solution after all my complex hard work. So, here a few features for this version:

  • Forum installed on Root
  • You Don't Have to Make a PHP Page (Just a simple Template Edit)
  • Should work on every theme (Only tested on DarkBB 1.8 though)
  • Makes for a beautiful login effect! (See Demo)
There are a couple of things that I've noticed do not work using this method:

  • The setting to Force Users to Login before being to able to view the board needs to be disabled. (It didn't work on my board with it on, (probably because I was using a separate .php page to handle it), but I haven't tested it on a board using this version of the modification. If it works, please let me know!)
Alright, so first up, a preview of what we're going to make! You can view a demo of it here. Or you can look at this screenshot:

[Image: pQMf5fq.png]

That's right, we'll be making something sexy for your board! First things first, since this is just a template edit. Go to Admin CP -> Templates & Styles -> "Your_Theme" -> Member Templates -> Member Login

Now, once there replace everything in that box, with this: 


PHP Code:
<html>
<head>
<title>{$mybb->settings['bbname']} - {$lang->login}</title>
{$headerinclude}
</head>
<body>
{$headersplash}
{$inline_errors}
{$member_loggedin_notice}
  <center>
<form action="member.php" method="post">
<table border="0" cellspacing="35%" cellpadding="10" width="35%" class="form_splash" >
<tr>
<td class="thead" colspan="2"><strong>{$lang->login}</strong></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="trow1"><strong>{$lang->username}</strong></td>
<td class="trow1"><input type="text" class="textbox" name="username" size="25" style="width: 200px;" value="{$username}" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="trow2"><strong>{$lang->password}</strong><br /><span class="smalltext">{$lang->pw_note}</span></td>
<td class="trow2"><input type="password" class="textbox" name="password" size="25" style="width: 200px;" value="{$password}" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="trow1" colspan="2" align="center"><label title="{$lang->remember_me_desc}"> <center><a href="member.php?action=lostpw">{$lang->lostpw_note}</a><input type="submit" class="button" name="submit" value="{$lang->login}" />
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="do_login" />
<input type="hidden" name="url" value="{$redirect_url}" />&nbsp; | &nbsp;<input type="checkbox" class="checkbox" name="remember" checked="checked" value="yes" /> {$lang->remember_me}</label></center></td>
</tr>
{$captcha}
</table>
<br />
</form>
  </center>
  <br />
  <br />
  <div class="lower">
        <div class="wrapper">
            <span id="current_time">{$lang->welcome_current_time}</span>
          <br />
            <span id="copyright">
                <!-- MyBB is free software developed and maintained by a volunteer community.
                    It would be much appreciated by the MyBB Group if you left the full copyright and "powered by" notice intact,

                <!-- End powered by -->

    </div>
  <!-- The following piece of code allows MyBB to run scheduled tasks. DO NOT REMOVE -->{$task_image}<!-- End task image code -->
{$auto_dst_detection}
</body>
</html> 

Next, you need to make one template. (I called mine "header_splash") (If you don't know how to do this the thread is here.) This way, you don't mess up the default board and end up with something weird! 

Once you've made the "header_splash" template. Copy & Paste the following code in it:

PHP Code:
<div id="container">
        <div id="header">
            <div id="logo">
                <div class="wrapper">
                    <a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/index.php"><img src="{$theme['logo']}" alt="{$mybb->settings['bbname']}" title="{$mybb->settings['bbname']}" /></a>
                </div>
            </div>
                  </div>
          </div>


<br /> 

If you want added Cool Factor you can make the page fade in as well as hide the scroll bar! Put this code right above the above code: (I'll upload the two Jscripts as an attachment.)

PHP Code:
<style type="text/css">
body {
    overflow:auto;
}
</style>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jscripts/firework.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jscripts/query-1.4.2.min.js"></script><style type="text/css"></style><style type="text/css"></style>
<script type="text/javascript">
            
            $(document).ready(function() {
                
                $('body').hide().fadeIn(3000);
                
            });
            
        </script> 

Awesome! Now we need to make sure we have our CSS in Order! In Templates & Styles -> "Your Theme" -> global.css, find: 

PHP Code:
form {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
} 
And replace with: 
PHP Code:
form {
  margin: 0;
padding: 0;
  width: 35%;
  margin-left: auto;
  margin-right: auto;
} 

Next up, we have a few more Styling modifications. All of these are under the Templates -> Members Templates, so just find the file and replace it.

First, we have member_register, replace it with this:

PHP Code:
<html>
<head>
<title>{$mybb->settings['bbname']} - {$lang->registration}</title>
{$headerinclude}
<script src="{$mybb->asset_url}/jscripts/validate/jquery.validate.min.js"></script>

<body>

{$regerrors}

</form>
  </center>
</body>
</html> 

And, that should be it! You're done! Happy Themeing! (This is just a simple version. The one in the demo is hardcoded into a different php page, with custom templates as well as changed lines in the following files:

  • member.php
  • global.php

Below is the original Member_login Template, in case something doesn't go right. (Since I only tested it on my one theme.)


PHP Code:
<html>
<head>

5 Simple tutorials that relate to MyBB.
----------------------


Show Groups

Firstly create a new file in your root folder named 'showgroups.php'
Edit the file and add the following code and save it.

Code:
<?php 

define('IN_MYBB', 1); require "./global.php";

add_breadcrumb("Custom Usergroups", "showgroups.php"); 

eval("\$html = \"".$templates->get("showgroups")."\";"); 

output_page($html);

?>

Now go to your Admin Control Panel > Themes > Templates > Global Templates > and add a new template titled 'showgroups'.
In that template add the following code and save it.

Code:
</style>
<html>
<head>
<title>Current Usergroups</title>
{$headerinclude}
</head>
<body>
{$header}
<table border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="4" class="tborder">
<tr>
<td class="thead"><span class="smalltext"><strong>Current Custom Usergroups</strong></span></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="trow1">

<div style="width: 48%; min-height:120px; border: 1px #0E8104 solid; margin: 4px; padding: 2px; border-radius: 5px; float:left;">
    <table width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" border="0">
    <tr class="trow1">
    <td width="75%" border="0">
    <span><b>Usergroup</b></span><br />
    <span class="smalltext"><b>Leaders: </b>

Then you can edit the code to the appropriate images, users and so on for each of your groups.


Upgrading Files from 1.6 to 1.8

We'll use Labrocca's Tabbed Menu from MyBBCentral.com for this tutorial.
Locate the following file, I'll be showing this example as from a cpanel. public_html/inc/plugins/ficons.php
Note: ficons.php will be whatever file you need updated!

Edit the file and find compatibility and change it from 16* to 18*

On 1.6 (before)
[Image: 45d66c9ba235e256e1e04f6e3590611b.png]

On 1.8 (after)
[Image: 5fa7ca90893e3cff69129170149ec739.png]

Save the file and check in the ACP to make sure it's working.

Still not working?
In the case it doesn't edit all the files related to that plugin and add 18*.
Then it should work, I'll admit I had to do it with a few plugins.


Alert AdBlock users about adblock extension

This short method will tell members using AdBlock to deactivate the extension in their browser.
Go to the Admin Control Panel > Themes > Templates > Theme Name > Header > Select who views it.
And then put this code in and save it.

Code:
<div class="YOUR_CLASS">Alerts!&nbsp;</div> // - You can remove this
<script>
(function() {
    var message = "Your Message to AdBlock Users!";
    var tryMessage = function() {
            setTimeout(function() {
                if(!document.getElementsByClassName) return;
                var ads = document.getElementsByClassName('YOUR_CLASS'),
                    ad  = ads[ads.length - 1];
  if(!ad
                    || ad.innerHTML.length == 0
                    || ad.clientHeight === 0) {
                    alert(message);
                 //window.location.href = 'http://comunidade.bf4brasil.com.br/member.php?action=register'; "//"  Redirect users to where you want - You need to remove "//"
                } else {
                    ad.style.display = 'none';
                }

            }, 1800);
        }
        if(window.addEventListener) {
            window.addEventListener('load', tryMessage, false);
        } else {
            window.attachEvent('onload', tryMessage);
        }
})();
</script>


Limit Signature Image Size in kilobyte


Go to your Root > Inc > Plugins > create a file named 'limitsign.php' and save it.
Then edit that file and add the following code.

Code:
<?php 
// Disallow direct access to this file for security reasons
if(!defined("IN_MYBB"))
{
    die("Direct initialization of this file is not allowed.<br /><br />Please make sure IN_MYBB is defined.");
}

// Plugin info
function limitsign_info ()
{
    return array(
        "name"            => "limitsign",
        "description"    => "limitsign",
        "website"        => "limitsign",
        "author"        => "limitsign",
        "authorsite"    => "limitsign",
        "version"        => "limitsign",
        "guid"             => "limitsign",
        "compatibility" => "16*"
    );
}

$plugins->add_hook('usercp_start', 'signsize');
function signsize()
{
    global $mybb, $error;

    preg_match_all("/\[img(.*?)\](.*?)\[\/img\]/i", $mybb->input['signature'], $matches, PREG_SET_ORDER);

    $kbsizetot = 0;
    
    foreach ($matches as $img)
    {
    $kbsize = strlen(@file_get_contents($img[2]));
    $kbsizetot += $kbsize;
    }
    
    if (($kbsizetot > 350000) && ($mybb->input['action'] == "do_editsig")) {

    $error = inline_error("The sum of the size of the images exceeds the allowed limit of 350kb.");

    }    
}
?>

Change the value (currently 350000) to whatever you want it to be.
Additionally enter the error message you want and then save it.


Usergroups legend without using plugins


To begin with go to this template: Admin Control Panel > Templates & Style > Templates > theme of choice > Index Page Templates > index_boardstats.
Find {$whosonline} and replace with the following but filled in with your groups.

Code:
<tr>
<td class="tcat"><span class="smalltext"><strong>Usergroup Legend</strong></span></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="trow1"><span class="smalltext">ADD YOUR USERGROUPS HERE</span></td>
</tr>

If you are having issues with whos online, readd the code for it which is > {$whosonline}

How to remove /cpanel/ and :2082

Most users have a problem with /cpanel/ and :2082 on their url and that could be a security risk to the site if some one looks for the login. But here is how to remove /cpanel/ and :2082!

Step 1: Sign into cloudflare.

Step 2: Go to your website, click the gear icon, and select page rules.

Step 3: Put yourdomain.com/cpanel/ in the big box at the top. Then turn on forwarding. Put any domain you want there that is not /cpanel/ or :2082 (duh)

Step 4: Do the same thing for :2082

Step 5: Add both page rules.

Now yourdomain.com/cpanel/ and :2082 no longer exist!
