Easiest would be to change the signature divider in viewtopic.php
Don't know if it is the BEST way, though. <img>
OPEN: viewtopic.php
FIND:
- Code: Select all
if ( $user_sig != '' && $userdata['user_allowsignature'] != 0 ) { $user_sig = '_________________<br>' . str_replace("n", "n<br>n", $user_sig); } else $user_sig = '';
REPLACE] if ( $user_sig != '' && $userdata['user_allowsignature'] != 0 ) { $user_sig = str_replace("n", "n<br>n", $user_sig); } else $user_sig = '';[/code]

I did that one time and it did not change anything.
Also, that code appears in more than one file I have noticed..

Hmmm. I must have missed some areas, then. The general idea would be to locate the divider line in whatever file it is located in and remove the divider line and the <br> that follows it.

You will also find it for private messages
The modification we are talking about, was about viewtopic only, so you only have to change the divider-line on viewtopic.php...
Personally, I don't really need this modification for private messages.
The signature is always at the bottom there...

BTW: I did something different than Jason's instruction
[strike]Just by putting // at the beginning of those lines instead of changing them...[/strike]
[strike]Seems to work just fine...[/strike] (or am I missing something?)

I thought of that as well, and that was what I was originally going to post, but it looked like the str_replace() was needed to handle the line breaks in the signature.

Not sure what you guys use to edit files but dreamweaver has an excellent find and replace function. I simply searched for __________ and replaced it with nothing.

Great work!!!
I've put this working and it's ok. I've also taken out the black line.
I guess with that white line the black one has no meaning.
Despite i would prefer the black one and not having the white one!
But for now, having the sign on the bottom is excellent.
Thanks to all!

Btw, i've found this too mods.
This one is to control the signature, and it includes an option to limit the image:
[url=http]Signatures control[/url]
This other one, control the appearance of the black line:
[url=http]Advanced Signature Divider Control[/url]

Thanks Mighty07,
I was rather thinking of resizing the appearance of external images, without restricting them...
I know this is possible in HTML:
[color=blue]<img src="http]
And I would like that to be automatically applied when an external-image is too wide...
Many users on my site don't even know how to resize a picture, that's why I would really like it to be this way...
...And I don't want to allow HTML...

I have Dreamweaver MX. I only use it for initial layout and design, and only when necessary (which tends to be rarely).
I use Microsoft Visual Studio when I'm working with ASP.NET / VB.NET
I use [url=http]Notepad++[/url] for everything else, including as a replacement for Windows Notepad. If you haven't checked it out yet, you should. <img>

I also have Dreamweaver MX, use it for pure-HTML only.
Dreamweaver is a heavy package, and I don't like to use it for everything.
I used conTEXT for editing all kinds of text.
I have Notepad++ on a memorystick but never used it <img>
Thanks to Jason, I have taken another look at it...
And yes...it has a 'Search in files' feature, conTEXT doesn't.
(conTEXT has a compare function, didn't find that in Notepad++)

Back on topic:
All bits and pieces together for this signature modification:
OPEN: templates/fisubice/ viewtopic_body.tpl
FIND:
- Code: Select all
<BEGIN><BEGIN><tbody id="post_{postrow.POST_ID}" style="display]
REPLACE WITH:[code]<BEGIN><BEGIN><tbody id="post_{postrow.POST_ID}" style="display]
OPEN: viewtopic.php
FIND:[code]if ( $user_sig != '' && $userdata['user_allowsignature'] != 0 ) { $user_sig = '_________________<br>' . str_replace("n", "n<br>n", $user_sig); } else $user_sig = '';[/code]
REPLACE WITH]if ( $user_sig != '' && $userdata['user_allowsignature'] != 0 ) { $user_sig = str_replace("n", "n<br>n", $user_sig); } else $user_sig = '';

Personally, I've changed something else too...
I didn't like the way the title looks like in messages on viewtopic.
It's not very eyecatching, and gets a little bit messed up when title icons are used.
So the following modification is my personal addition to change the way the title appears on messages (but not needed for doing the signature modification)
I guess that some people will like it better this way, and some will not...
OPEN: templates/fisubice/ viewtopic_body.tpl
FIND:
- Code: Select all
<td><a><img></a>{L_POSTED}]
REPLACE WITH:[code]<td><h2>{postrow.POST_SUBJECT}</h2><a><img></a>{postrow.POST_DATE}</td>

I just ported this hack for
IM 1.4.1 template:
OPEN
viewtopic.phpFIND
- Code: Select all
if ( $user_sig != '' && $userdata['user_allowsignature'] != 0 ) { $user_sig = '_________________<br>' . str_replace("n", "n<br>n", $user_sig); } else $user_sig = '';
REPLACE WITH:
- Code: Select all
if ( $user_sig != '' && $userdata['user_allowsignature'] != 0 ) { $user_sig = str_replace("n", "n<br>n", $user_sig); } else $user_sig = '';
SAVE and CLOSE
OPEN
templates/Integra2/ viewtopic_body.tpl FIND:
- Code: Select all
<BEGIN> <tbody> <END> <tr> <td><span><a></a>{postrow.AUTHOR_PANEL} <img> </span> </td> <td> <table> <tr> <Start> <form> <End> <td><a><img></a>{L_POSTED}: {postrow.POST_DATE} {L_POST_SUBJECT}: {postrow.POST_SUBJECT}</td> <td>{postrow.QUOTE_IMG}{postrow.EDIT_IMG}<a><img></a>{postrow.DELETE_IMG}{postrow.IP_IMG}{postrow.U_R_CARD}{postrow.U_Y_CARD}{postrow.U_G_CARD}{postrow.U_B_CARD}{postrow.CARD_EXTRA_SPACE}{postrow.CARD_HIDDEN_FIELDS} </td> <Start> </form> <End> </tr> </table> <table> <tr> <td> <hr> <div>{postrow.MESSAGE}</div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td>{postrow.ATTACHMENTS}<span>{postrow.EDITED_MESSAGE}</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td><br> <span>{postrow.SIGNATURE}</span> </td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> <BEGIN>

Is there any way to get rid of the extra line completely or at least change its color to hide it without changing the border of the rest of the tables?
Also, to get the signature aligned to the bottom I had to change
- Code: Select all
<td><span>{postrow.SIGNATURE}</span></td>
to
- Code: Select all
<td><span>{postrow.SIGNATURE}</span></td>
I don't think the height="1" is changing the table height for me for the signature...I am getting a lot of space between the sig and the extra line above. When someone does not have a signature the space between the two lines changes depending on the length of the post. Problem for me may be that I have a bit of extra info in the viewtopic_left area of the PCP which gives that whole area more height than usual.

No ther's no wimple way to remove this line without completely change the table class in the theme css meaning that you would have to adpat every template where this class is used <img>
About the height=1 I believe this has an effect on some browsers when other don't
