Re: vBulletin 3.7

Re: vBulletin 3.7

Yeh I updated our forums as well.
BTW EP you need to take a look at your templates. The code for logged in members changed to allow a nice notifications menu.
Its not too bad to implement. You just need to add a line to your template. I used this below the last_visited_at phrase:

<if condition="$show['notifications']"><br />
   <span id="notifications"><a href="usercp.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[your_notifications]:</a> <strong>$notifications_total</strong></span>
   <script type="text/javascript"> vBmenu.register("notifications"); </script>
  <else />
   <if condition="$show['pmstats']"><br /><phrase 1="$vbphrase[unread_x_nav_compiled]" 2="$vbphrase[total_x_nav_compiled]" 3="$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[private_messages_nav]</phrase></if>
  </if>

</IF>

Re: vBulletin 3.7

I updated all templates that were out of date, which template is this specifically?

Re: vBulletin 3.7

navbar by default but it depends on your template. If you search for

<if condition="$show['pmstats']">

it should get you in the area 😉

Also are you using batch mode for notification emails or instant?

Re: vBulletin 3.7

instant.

Re: vBulletin 3.7

Why let vBulletin queue email and send it when it is meant to be forum software, not a mail server. The mail server is meant to send email, so let it do it's job!

Re: vBulletin 3.7

Yeh I just wondered. I run in instant as well.
Any luck with the template edits?

Re: vBulletin 3.7

Nope not there.

I do see notifications tho when there is something there, a friend request or pm etc.

Re: vBulletin 3.7

3.7 is final now and I am just preparing to do a neat upgrade.
Unlike the betas I will be doing this slowly to remove redundant files etc. so will take a little longer.

I don't anticipate many template changes between the final and last release candidate so the forums won't be disabled.
