Only visible--->Users

[Kiekeboe]

What was the code in the templates witch made the part between it only visible for users?
I mean a code like this one:

<!-- BEGIN switch_legend -->
<!-- END switch_legend -->

Thanx!

Hello,

Do you want something that is visible only to he logged in users and not to the guests?

[Japorized]

Try this.

Code:

<!-- BEGIN switch_user_logged_in>
CONTENT HERE
<!-- END switch_user_logged_in>

[Kiekeboe]

Thanx! That's what I ment

Hey I just tried this code for a chatbox I put in myself - it hides it from everyone, including members =/

[Honor]

*Bump* Sheesh!

[Japorized]

Perhaps you have hidden the chatbox, including the contents

[Honor]

It's not THE chatbox, it's a Chatango one. It's a different one. It's on the bottom of every page.

The code worked - except that it also hid it from the online users as well as the guests.

Running a PHPBB2 forum.

Try this.

Code:

<!-- BEGIN switch_user_logged_in>
CONTENT HERE
<!-- END switch_user_logged_in>

Where you put the code?

[Honor]

In my overall_footer, where my chatbox code is.

Edit:
The chatbox code went where "Content goes here" was. This made it disappear from both the guest's sight as well as the members - even us admin.

Hello,

Can you prove a screenshot please?
Also, the URL of your forum, and the code & location in which you put it in.

[Honor]

---> Normal chatbox, viewed as admin


----> Coding for chatbox, placed in Templates>General>Overall_Footer


----> Added the code:
<!-- BEGIN switch_user_logged_in>
CONTENT HERE
<!-- END switch_user_logged_in>


-----> Still logged in as admin, but now chatbox is invisible. (Published, not the preview)

I can see it perfectly without being logged in. Have you taken the code out temporarily?

[Honor]

yes because it was hiding it from everyone.

[itsEricIndustries]

Okay. I'm not sure what the problem is, I was just wondering.

[Darren1]

Hello,

Could you provide me with the code that you are using?
Also, do you want it on the bottom of every single page, or only the index?

Code:

Yes every single page (works when i put it in the forum overall_footer)

The BEGIN/END tag thingies are missing the "--" part of the ending. Try this, I tested it and it worked for me:

Code:

<!-- BEGIN switch_user_logged_in -->
<center><br><b><u>Enjoy the Chat!</u></b><br>Ask a Question ~ Drop a Tag ~ Get to Know Your Fellow Gamers<br><object width="800" height="600" id="obj_1277926756990"><param name="movie" value="http://bpchatter.chatango.com/group"/><param name="wmode" value="transparent"/><param name="AllowScriptAccess" VALUE="always"/><param name="AllowNetworking" VALUE="all"/><param name="AllowFullScreen" VALUE="true"/><param name="flashvars" value="cid=1277926756990&c=FFFFFF&d=6699FF&e=000000&g=FFFFFF&h=000000&j=FFFFFF&k=CCCCCC&l=000000&m=0066FF&n=FFFFFF&p=12&q=999999&s=1&v=0&w=0"/><embed id="emb_1277926756990" src="http://bpchatter.chatango.com/group" width="800" height="600" wmode="transparent" allowScriptAccess="always" allowNetworking="all" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowFullScreen="true" flashvars="cid=1277926756990&c=FFFFFF&d=6699FF&e=000000&g=FFFFFF&h=000000&j=FFFFFF&k=CCCCCC&l=000000&m=0066FF&n=FFFFFF&p=12&q=999999&s=1&v=0&w=0"></embed></object><br>Observe Forum Rules ~ No Spamming ~ Leave RL at the Banner<br></center><br>
<!-- END switch_user_logged_in -->

Not to high jack a thread, but does anyone know the statement to display something to someone who is not logged in? Or should I maybe start my own support topic...

[Darren1]

Indeed that code does work, thanks for that Marvso

Marvso, do you mean a guest only message?
Ifso, my tutorial will help => https://help.forumotion.com/tricks-tips-f32/guest-message-phpbb2-and-punbb-only-t35641.htm

[Honor]

It works! Grazie, peeps.

[RoNo]

Glad you got what you wanted, Honor. Nice work guys. For those without template editing (Invision, Phpbb3) You can show content to guests only like this... Place this script in "site description" Code: <script type=text/javascript>var p='{USERNAME}';</script> Add your content like this: [ Homepage example ] Add to: Admin Panel»Display»Homepage»Generalities»Message content Code: <div id="guests1"> Content Here </div> <script type="text/javascript"> <!-- if(p=="Guest") {} else { /* remove guest panel */ document.getElementById('guests1').style.display='none'; if(document.getElementById('show_panel')>-1) {} } --> </script> You can change both ID's titled: guests1 to whatever you want.

Since the issue appears to be resolved, this topic is closed. RoNo
