Hello guys, I was trying to edit some of my templates to make my forum unique but I am not very good in php yet. I got a question for you: I need to create a condition in which i must specify if the variable $forum[moderators] is empty or not...

Example:


Can someone help please?


Kindest Regards
Samantha

well, i'm not sure/recall about any "direct" moderator number info exists inside $forums[] array, but you could simply gather number of moderators, by add into related hook code like this:

then inside your template:
hope this helps.

First of all thanks for your time, I don't have a hook code...all I am doing is editing some templates. So where am I supposed to use the quoted code?


Thank you!

Kisses

what vbulletin version are you using ? 3.0.xx ? or 3.5.x/3.6.x ??
the answer & code mentioned to be placed @ hook system assumed you were using 3.5.x version or higher.
if answer is 3.0.xx, then just put php code into either showthread.php or forumdisplay.php (depands on where you need this modification added), it doesn't really matter exact location inside file - just needs to make sure it's declared before sending template into eval(), otherwise var won't be available.

also another correction if you're using indeed 3.0.xx, then i think array that should be used is indeed $forum[] & not $foruminfo[], like i wrote before.

Well thanks, I am using vB version 3.5.2 (as testboard) and vB 3.6.0 (as official forum). So I have to use the hook system, right? Pardon me but where is the hook system located?

Go into your admin control panel (ACP) and then near the bottom of the navigation is Plugin And Product System click on the arrow to drop it down and then click on add new plugin. Then choose a name, a hook location and the code that Idan gave you.

Thanks rogersnm, I need to use this modification on forumdisplay so the right location for the hook would be forumdisplay_moderator, is that right? Or maybe forumdisplay_start?

Not sure, try start.

Will try it there then, thank you guys ;)

ps. i don't think that will work as a hook location.
