Is it possible to set only text signatures? (no images)

First topic message reminder :

Is it possible to set a function that disables image signatures (jpg, gif, png, bmp) but enables just text signatures?

When I turn off the signature option, it automatically turns off everything in this section, which I don't want... I would at least like to allow modified text signatures with colors and links.

Is that possible?

enable what
if you want to hide the images in the signatures just put the css code above in your CSS stylesheet (:
ACP - Display - Colors - CSS stylesheet

Hey Gangsta

Thanks we did this and it worked, (it took the images away)
members still have around 6 or more lines of text? How do we reduce this to one line or a max of two? Thanks



BTW
why is there no easy way of controling signatures within the signature section mods & admin?

You need to suggest this in the suggestions section (:

I can never find the suggestions section

For Punbb: Code: .sig-content{ max-height: #px; }

For Phpbb and Invision: Code: .signature_div{ max-height: #px; }

Replace "#" with a number (in pixels)

Does this reduce the amount of lines of text ot just images?

I know what he means with these codes (:
it will reduce the area of the signature and hide some lines but it needs this part too:

Code:

overflow:hidden;

Now I'm just confused!

Hi,

Whats being suggested is that you use CSS Specific codes.


For Punbb:

Code:

.sig-content{
max-height: #px;
overflow:hidden;
}

For PHPBB2, PHPBB3 and Invision:

Code:

.signature_div{
max-height: #px;
overflow:hidden;
}

Replace "#" with a number (in pixels)

And insert it into your CSS Block: Admin panel >> Display >Colours > CSS Style Sheets > Paste at the end if you have any, otherwise just in the box if it's blank.


Does this help?

Actually, Darren the codes are:

PunBB:

Code:

.sig-content{
max-height: #px;
overflow:hidden;
}

phpBB 2, 3 and Invision:

Code:

.signature_div{
max-height: #px;
overflow:hidden;
}

Bugga, thats true, howd I miss that lol. Thanks Base, bud

That's a bit embarrassing lol

No problem, Darren, we all make mistakes.

Please use the above codes supplied by me to get the desired effect. You will need to replace the # with a number of your choice.

Sorry guys for sounding thick, really appreciate the help but what do I need to paste in to actually remove images and reduce lines of text

I'm a newbie to all this and struggle a bit so if you could talk me through it simply that would be great, as said before I managed to disable images/photos (with earlier code) but want to limit text as well?

So do I delete the current code? or just add to it? and what do I add?

Thanks Daren and don't worry mate, can't remember everything everytime, no ones that perfect mate

Thanks All

You'll need to add the code into your CSS Stylesheet which can be found by going to:

1. Administration Panel (advanced mode)
2. Display Tab
3. Colors (on the left, under Pictures and Colors)
4. CSS Stylesheet and paste the code there

Yes, thanks I know understand that bit, pasted the code previously

But....

1) Do I delete the current code (which removed photos/images) ?
2) Which code do I replace with or add to reduce signature lines?

Thank You

Oh, right.

You keep the code that removes images from signatures, and you add in the above code with it. You'll need to add the code that is relevant to your forum version i.e. if your forum is on phpBB 3, then you'll need to copy the bottom code.

Example:

Code:

.signature_div{
max-height: #px;
overflow:hidden;
}
.signature_div img{
display: none;
}

Thanks Base

So to confirm we add:

.signature_div img{
display: none;
}

to the code already in the box? this will still alow signatures yes? but limit the amount of lines? (just bit confused because it says NONE in the code?)

Thank You

The code tells the signature that if there are any images, then it will not display them hence the none you see in the code. It will allow signatures, but it will not limit the amount of lines. To limit the amount of lines, you'll need to set the code up so it's like the example shown in my above post.

And yes, you will need to add it to the current CSS code.

OK got the following code pasted in CSS style sheets but member is still showing around 6 lines of text?

.signature_div{
max-height: #px;
overflow:hidden;
}
.signature_div img{
display: none;
}

That's because you haven't replaced the # in the code with a number of your choice. I would recommend 5px, but you can experiment and play around with the code until you find your liking.

OK thanks base, Just tried replacing # with 5px as you suggested and it took out everyones signatures completely?

Try different values. I'm not sure which number would work perfectly on your forum; but for my forum I used 5 px and it worked great. It's basically a trial and error process.

Just to note: the higher the number, the more of the signature will be displayed.

OK, just to confirm I remove the hash "#" not add the number after the #?

You replace the hash with a number. So, for instance:

Code:

#px

replaced would be

Code:

10px

ok mate, will have another go

OK, had to go up to 45 otherwise signatures dont show? took it down to 42 but the text was cut in half? so at 45 would you say this is ok? lot higher than your 10??

You use whatever number suits your forum. I didn't expect it to be a lot bigger than my ten actually.

Without a screenshot, I can't see if 45 is a suitable number. But you're trying to limit the signature, right? So, if you feel that 45 has reduced it to your liking, then keep it that way. Of course, if you are free to change it at any time.

ok thanks will see how we go
