Dynamic Sig

[stitch626]

Ok Raggy,

Let's just keep this simple and let's stick with the original instructions of this script.
Open up your sig.php file and replace all your code with this:

Spoiler:

Code: Select all

<?php
define('IN_PHPBB', true);
$phpEx = substr(strrchr(__FILE__, '.'), 1);
include($phpbb_root_path . 'common.'.$phpEx);
$bg = 'http://www.seo-fed.com/sig.gif';

$user->session_begin();
$username = ($user->data['user_id'] != ANONYMOUS) ? 'Hey ' . $user->data['username'] . '!' : '';
list($width, $height, $type) = @getimagesize($user->data['user_avatar']);
switch ( $type )
{
case 1:
$avatar = imagecreatefromgif($user->data['user_avatar']);
break;
case 2:
$avatar = imagecreatefromjpeg($user->data['user_avatar']);
break;
case 3:
$avatar = imagecreatefrompng($user->data['user_avatar']);
break;
}

list($bg_width, $bg_height, $bg_type) = @getimagesize($bg);
switch ( $bg_type )
{
case 1:
$bg_img = imagecreatefromgif($bg);
break;
case 2:
$bg_img = imagecreatefromjpeg($bg);
break;
case 3:
$bg_img = imagecreatefrompng($bg);
break;
}

$this_img = imagecreatetruecolor(468, 60);
if ( isset($bg_width) && isset($bg_height) && isset($bg_img) )
{
imagecopymerge($this_img, $bg_img, 0, 0, 0, 0, $bg_width, $bg_height, 100);
}

imagealphablending($this_img, TRUE);
$color = imagecolorallocate($this_img, 0, 0, 0);
$bg = imagecolorallocatealpha($this_img, rand(200, 250), rand(200, 250), rand(200, 250), 50);
imagefill($this_img, 0, 0, $bg);
if ( isset($width) && isset($height) )
{
imagecopymerge($this_img, $avatar, 468 - $width, 0, 0, 0, $width, $height, 100);
}

imagefilledrectangle($this_img, 0, 0, 467, 59, $bg);
imagestring($this_img, 3, 100, 0, $username, $color);
imagestring($this_img, 3, 175, 0, 'Visit Us At', $color);
imagestring($this_img, 3, 275, 0, $config['sitename'], $color);
imagestring($this_img, 3, 170, 15, 'PS2 & PS3 Online Gaming E-FED', $color);
imagestring($this_img, 3, 170, 20, 'PS2 & PS3 Online Gaming E-FED', $color);
imagestring($this_img, 3, 170, 25, 'PS2 & PS3 Online Gaming E-FED', $color);
imagestring($this_img, 3, 8, 30, $config['num_topics'] . ' Topics ' . $config['num_posts'] . ' Posts ' . $config['num_users'] . ' Members,', $color);
imagestring($this_img, 3, 274, 30, 'Our Newest Member ' . $config['newest_username'], $color);
imagestring($this_img, 2, 4, 44, $config['site_desc'], $color);
imagerectangle($this_img, 0, 0, 467, 59, $color);

header('Content-Type: image/gif');
imagegif($this_img);
?>


Upload this file to your root directory of your forums:
In your case I think your path is:
http://www.seo-fed.com/forums
Then upload your sig.gif to the same directory
Whatever other folders you have created just get rid of them.
Let's see if you can get this up and going first then we can see what we can do about placing these files into a sig folder if you wish.

Let us know how it goes.

i dont have a root folder. its direct. http://www.seo-fed.com/(no folder)

so basically i have done what u told me

sig.gif and sig.php onto the root directory. now ?

[stitch626]

Ok so then you would place these two files under
http://www.seo-fed.com/

So then you would have:

Code: Select all

http://www.seo-fed.com/sig.php
and
http://www.seo-fed.com/sig.gif

here u go



i did what u told me to do.

[stitch626]

Hmm I am stumped now. If you want you can pm me your your FTP info and provide me with a test account on your board and I will have a look how things are structured and the code itself. I am sure you did everything correct but you never know. Sometimes it takes another set of eyes. All it takes in one tiny detail to throw everything off.

The only other thing I can think of ATM is maybe it has something to do with your host.
