3.1.x Extensions Database 3.1 / 3.2 ⇒ [RC] Tables bbCode

[Anuj Dhawan]

This extension works great but it seems to distort the tables across the Board. For example, please see how memberlist.php looks like before and after installation of this extension:

memberlist - Before Tables Extension.jpg

memberlist - After Tables Extension.jpg

Hmmmm, the css is controlling the colors of the table... the class="cat" in particular in the header section.

I see now we can not have that for dark styles or custom color styles.
These tables need to be style dependent.
I'm all about style dependency and don't know why I didn't think about that in the beginning. :facepalm:

I'll look into it, shouldn't be a problem. Thanks for pointing that out.

[Anuj Dhawan]

Thanks for considering it for change Sniper_E. I look forward to that.

Appreciate your time! :)

Edit - something went wrong, not sure why there are two posts!

Ed, If your considering a update to this can you have a look here:

'' Think i found a problem with this extension. On my test board when enabled it makes the color selection bar HUGE. When i disable it the bar goes back to normal size.''


This issue is still there on a new install

[Sniper_E]

Yes I am working on this update.

Making it style dependent, it should look just like your memberlist table.
Same background, same text color and same space in the bar no matter what style.
After I finish up with that I will have some other questions for you guys on the table preferences.

But I may not be smart enough to implement the WYSIWYG HTML editor for this. That would be nice.

Yes I am working on this update.

AWESOME !

I'm getting somewhat somewhere with this...

In subsilver2 the<td>s would line up with the titles <th>s as far as the width goes.
Not with prosilver. So the widths have to be matched on the <th>s and the <td>s below them.

I'm still playing with it trying to find ways around some small issues but it is style dependent.
Stay tuned to this channel for updates...

[Anuj Dhawan]

Just a curious mind - Why do you consider subsilver for this extension? As, unless 'am mistaken, the only "supported" style with 3.1.x and 3.2.x is prosilver.

When everyone wanted a table bbcode I emulated the tables from subsilver2 exactly the way they were in subsilver2
The same layout and background colors from subsilver2 even. I was wrongly making the tables look just like subsilver2
I've done this years ago also. I was using a .css file to pull the background images which I got from the old subsilver2 style.

Now I'm changing this over to prosilver and prosilver type styles. Style dependent so dark styles will look like their style.

There is no .css file for the classes in this update I'm working on. The classes are pulled from the original prosilver .css files.
The tables will now be made using the prosilver tables like you see in the memberlist page. No subsilver2 at all.

FYI
You do know that there is a prosilver style that looks exactly like the old subsilver2 style.
And I have made a subsilver2 type style look just like prosilver before with using all tables.

I hope that answers your question...

There is no .css file for the classes

I'll leave it in the hands of the master!

Example: Table bbCode Extension @ Sniper_E Styles

This is just a test copy. I have more changes to make before the release.

On your local... disable the old extension and delete the data... delete the old files... upload the new files.

You may have to manually delete the old bbcodes before enabling because they have changed for prosilver.
Reason being that I'm not sure if the new install will over write the old bbcodes.

Any tests and feedback will be greatly appreciated!

Works great. Tested on prosilver, we_universal, we_clearblue:

Yes, thanks that answers it.

Yes, I know that there is a subsilver2 inherited from prosilver. Though I'm not sure if I've seen the prosilver-for-subsilver2 modified by you.

[Sniper_E]

Well that was years ago Anuj... I had a mobile style made with tables that looked exactly like prosilver.
But with the prosilver styles being mobile friendly that style is trashed and forgotten about.

Thanks for testing. I just saw a code error which I did not test earlier. The [th] html replacement codes.

Code: Select all

<th style="width: {NUMBER}%;text-align: left">{TEXT}</th>

The width="{NUMBER}%" did not pass html markup validation. Change your [th] bbCode to the codes above.
Now I need to clean up some other files and work on a better drop down menu for this and we'll be ready.

I'd like to get tamarin's little box he posted to drop down for the selections.
Wish me luck.
