leXX Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 Hey guys, any chance of an answer please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoffe Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 A vBulletin plugin would be required to allow remote-linking of avatars directly. The forum software currently stores all avatar images locally on the server to reduce load time of pages an enforce the image size limitations, and clicking on someone's avatar will take you to their profile. I'll look into it and see if there is some easier way of doing this. It could probably be added as a separate gamer card profile field, with a toggle to show the gamecard thing instead of the avatar on posts. Maybe that would work better? That would be fairly easy to set up without the need for any hacks or plugins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoffe Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 UPDATE: I've added a GamerTag profile field that hopefully should work for this. Check your UserCP, the "Edit Your Details" page at the bottom. There should be a field where you can type in your GamerTag, and a set of radio buttons where you can toggle your GameCard thingy being shown instead of your avatar on your posts. Since I don't use that particular site myself the terminology may be off. If any of the descriptions sound silly please let me know so it can be fixed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yar-El Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 They have a social group called the cult. You may have to apply there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leXX Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 Hey stoffee, thanks alot for trying to do this. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoffe Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 Hmm, looks like it works to me (partially) as your gamercard shows on your posts, but it currently only replaces the full-sized avatars on your posts and PMs. I forgot about the avatar shown on the profile screen. Should be fixed in a moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leXX Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 Hmm stange, I see it on pm's and the profile, but the avatar on my posts don't appear to have changed. I've tried logging out and in, and deleting the cache. Can you suggest anything else I could do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoffe Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 Oops, looks like it was a permissions problem making it only show up properly for those with administrative privileges. Sorry about that, looks like it works now with my test account at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leXX Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 Yes, tis working. Kudos stoffe, you utterly rock! ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leXX Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 Actually, I know I'm taking the piss, but do you think you could link to this image instead? It's the more standard gamercard, and I think if people are going to use this new feature then this image would be more acceptable. All that is required is change the word 'corner' to 'micro' in the image link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leXX Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 My dear stoffe, I love you. Now, is there anything I can do for you? A chocolate chip cookie, or perhaps a back massage with my vibrating thingymajiggy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miltiades Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 Hiya, Don't know if this is possible, but could the quick links button be added to LF's index page? Would make it easier to access some things when in the LF Index Page. Now, I have to go into a specific community to use the quick links. Thanks!

stoffe Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 @Miltiades: Might be hard to squeeze into the current front page design since the link bar is pretty much full down to the last character. @leXX: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoffe Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 UPDATE: Managed to squeeze in a single pulldown menu arrow icon for the ql-menu to the far right in the link bar. Perhaps not entirely obvious what it does by itself with no link caption, but clicking it should show you the quick links menu. Hope that is sufficient. You may need to hard-refresh the page (CTRL + F5 in Firefox) for it to show up correctly in case your browser decides to pull parts of the page from the cache instead.
