Admins can define a default signature for all the users without one.

Possibility to show/hide signatures on a per board and/or per topic level.


Uninstall instructions for SMF 2.0

Not easily, but you might try looking at the Signature Prompt mod which will do basically the same thing.

Thank You for your help that did fix the error. Do you have any idea about this part:

I have no idea about that, but that's probably because Subs.php has now been so modified, I have no idea what's on line 3840.

Hi everyone!

I installed Advanced Signature, and some mods more, and now Advanced Signature not working, and I can't reinstal it, becouse /Themes/default/languages/Modifications.english.php file fail to uninstall.

What to do?


EDIT

Okej, got it, all I had to do was add :

Code Select Expand

$txt['max_numberofSignatures'] = 'Maximum allowed signatures per user<div class="smalltext">(not less than 1)<br />Please use the option in <a href="' . $boardurl . '/index.php?action=admin;area=maintain;sa=members">members\' maintenance page</a> to reset to 1 signature per user before uninstall</div>';

To the modifications.english

Now its work all fine, and reinstall is not nessesery.

Are you getting an error message in your error log? something like the one here:

If not could you attach public_html/Sources/Subs.php

Thanks DownloadPs3 for report and thanks Arantor for solve that.

Updated the mod to fix my silly error (now that I've seen it, it's a pretty obvious mistake... ).

I dont know if this is common with alot of people using this mod but everytime someone viewed a post a error was placed in the error log about an unidentified index

• 
  
  I got the fix from another forum and here it is:
  
  In Sources/Subs:
  
  Find
  
  Code Select Expand
  } else {
        return $signs[0];
    } 

  
  and change to
  
  Code Select Expand
  } elseif (isset($signs[0])) {
        return $signs[0];
    }

Yes it was...

Please use the version I uploaded yesterday (0.1.2) I've called it a beta, but in fact it should work better than the previous one!

How do i uninstall this mod on 1.12? I dont think this mod is really needed on my forum anymore. Where is that maintenance thing you need to run?

In admin -> forum maitenance
The link should be a link "Reset to single signature per user".

I know, it's a rather silly mod, that's why I like it, but I don't use it!

I did that and im still getting those errors. Could it be because i had to modify those files to get the addon to work? If so how do i fix it?

[emanuele]

Of course that error is because the code found in the file is different from the one in the package.
You can simply revert the changes you did and uninstall the mod, or in alternative you can uninstall the mod and then remove manually the parts of code left in subs.php and profile.php

It seems that the context value is not actually being set....   and you're not checking to see if it exists before calling it.

[emanuele]

Even worst: the real bug is in post.php...but there are in fact multiple bugs.

New version uploaded: correcting this bad behaviour and few other things I found in the meantime...

[warezjasz]

Hello, you made great job with this mod, but i got one little problem.

Why links not working with it? I mean signatures works okey, but links in not working, even when I put that in BBC its showing whole code, not a link, and when I turn down Adv Sig mode, it's working okey. (I mean links in signature ofc)

Please help

[emanuele]

Please install the new 0.1.3 version.
I fixed many bug, including that one (thanks for reporting!).
