How to remove annoying sigs:
1) Add two new Profile Fields:
2) Now time to add the actual code, this is a bit trickier as it takes some modifications in a vB file. First of all, open "includes/functions_showthread.php"
3) Find the following code, it is on line 489 -> 506 in an unedited copy of this file:
Now delete the lot of it, and replace it with:
The first two lines need to be changed to reflect what vBulletin names the two new fields you create.
$maxsigmod_maxlines_field is the max lines field, and
$maxsigmod_maxchars_field is the max characters field.
I have used code instead of php colouring as PHP colouring looks really bad on a green background.
1) Add two new Profile Fields:
Code:
Title Description Default Max Len Display Size Reg. Expression Display Page
Maximum lines for signatures Set maximum line for each user signature on this forum, numeric only! 4 4 ^[0-9]$ Options: Other
Maximum characters for signatures Set maximum characters for each user signature on this forum, numeric only! 4 4 ^[0-9]$ Options: Other2) Now time to add the actual code, this is a bit trickier as it takes some modifications in a vB file. First of all, open "includes/functions_showthread.php"
3) Find the following code, it is on line 489 -> 506 in an unedited copy of this file:
Code:
// get signature
if ($post['showsignature'] AND $vboptions['allowsignatures'] AND trim($post['signature']) != '' AND (!$bbuserinfo['userid'] OR $bbuserinfo['showsignatures']) AND $sigperms[$post['userid']])
{
if (!isset($sigcache["$post[userid]"]))
{
$parsed_postcache['skip'] = true;
$post['signature'] = parse_bbcode($post['signature'], 'nonforum', $vboptions['allowsmilies']);
$sigcache["$post[userid]"] = $post['signature'];
}
else
{
$post['signature'] = $sigcache["$post[userid]"];
}
}
else
{
$post['signature'] = '';
}Now delete the lot of it, and replace it with:
Code:
$maxsigmod_maxlines_field = 'field6';
$maxsigmod_maxchars_field = 'field7';
// get signature
if ($post['showsignature'] AND $vboptions['allowsignatures'] AND trim($post['signature']) != '' AND (!$bbuserinfo['userid'] OR $bbuserinfo['showsignatures']) AND $sigperms[$post['userid']])
{
if (!isset($sigcache["$post[userid]"]))

$parsed_postcache['skip'] = true;
if (isset($bbuserinfo[$maxsigmod_maxlines_field]))

$num_lines = (int) $bbuserinfo[$maxsigmod_maxlines_field];
$multiline_sig = explode("\n", $post['signature']);
if (count($multiline_sig) > $num_lines)
{
// ok this sig is too big, we will cut it down to size.
$post['signature'] = implode("\n", array_slice($multiline_sig, 0, $num_lines));
} // if
} // if
} // if
if (isset($bbuserinfo[$maxsigmod_maxchars_field]))
{
if ($bbuserinfo[$maxsigmod_maxchars_field] != '')
{
$num_chars = (int) $bbuserinfo[$maxsigmod_maxchars_field];
if (strlen($post['signature']) > $num_chars)
{
// ok this sig is too big, we will cut it down to size.
$post['signature'] = substr($post['signature'], 0, $num_chars) . '...';
} // if
} // if
} // if
$post['signature'] = parse_bbcode($post['signature'], 'nonforum', $vboptions['allowsmilies']);
$sigcache["$post[userid]"] = $post['signature'];
}
else
{
$post['signature'] = $sigcache["$post[userid]"];
}
}
else
{
$post['signature'] = '';
}The first two lines need to be changed to reflect what vBulletin names the two new fields you create.
$maxsigmod_maxlines_field is the max lines field, and
$maxsigmod_maxchars_field is the max characters field.
