In the edituser.php file find this line:

$edituser->setVar('bio', xoops_substr($bio, 0, 255));

Change that 255 to a larger number. I'm pretty sure that should fix your problem.

I'm not sure, but it sounds like this might be something you need to change in the template maybe?

Thanks for the help, though the colors in this case are determined by .gif files.

I finally found the source code I needed in newbb/class/post.php so now the RPG hack is a progress bar hack with user defined max and current total. My members are tracking their word counts for writing challenge via this progress bar.

You can check it out athttp://hobgoblin.net/php/ in the forums, of course. :)

Another Newbb RPG Hack Question

I've made some changes to this function. I know where the calculations are located, and changed one of the fields to a user input, but I can't figure out where the code that controls the layout of this section is located so I can make changes to the way it looks.

For instance say I want to change the order of the bars, or the color of the bars... where the heck is that stuff at? I looked around in the templates and in the functions, but nothing is obvious enough to stand out to me if it's in there.

Any help on locating this stuff?

In your system admin under blocks. Set the weights of the blocks in the collumn so that the one you want on top has a smaller number than the rest.

Re: Weblog comment form not prepopulating title field.

Figured it out...

For anyone else who's using weblog and is having the same problem, in weblog/comment_new.php this portion:

" WHERE lid=" . $com_itemid . "";

Should read:

" WHERE blog_id=" . $com_itemid . "";

Weblog comment form not prepopulating title field.

I've been using weblog 1.3 on my site,http://hobgoblin.net/php/ and have several users that often comment on each other's blogs. The module isn't automatically filling in the title field on the New Comment form with an "Re: xxxxx". Users are just making up their own titles and it's getting confusing when looking at the Latests Comments Block.

If you reply to a comment, it fills it in appropriately. It's only empty when making a new comment.

My php skills are limited, and I'm only vaguely aware of what I'm doing when poking around inside the code, so some idea of what I need to look for to get this working would really help me out.

Is there something missing in a template? Or is it in the Weblog code somewhere?

Thanks in advance for any help!

WebLinks Feature Request

A couple of requests for any future versions of the weblinks module:

1) A choice between listing subcategories, or a category description beneath the Top Level Categories (and a description field to go with it.)

2) The ability to cross-post links into more than one category when adding to the database. Now that I realize you can't have the same link in the database more than once this would be especially useful.

3) A better way of accessing the Modify Link area rather than having to have the Link ID#

Thanks!

PS: I tried several other CMS's and I think XOOPS is by far the best. Keep up the good work!
