* maddness likes!

I've got a very n0ob question for you or anyone...

I've noticed in your posts the snips of code...I went through my php files (and I'm a php n0ob too btw) and didn't find the source that you're referencing above...(in other words, where to put your modifications)

my question is, is this a new file I'm supposed to create and call for elsewhere, or am I missing where this should go?  

If someone doesn't mind, I'd really appreciate a little help!  I'm only vaguely familiar with php!  

[groundup]

for this mod you are supposed to open boardindex.php and edit that file.  It depends on each mod and how the author created it

[charlottezweb]

I am an idiot...  

I thought that code WAS the file, not INSTRUCTIONS on editing the file...doh!

(shows my lack of php knowledge)

anyways...thx, i think i've realized my mistake

<update>  Thanks Shaun...that was too easy, once i figured our you were giving instructions, not code!  

[groundup]

shaun, if you have no moderators it creates an empy column that looks really dumb

[Shaun]

Eh?  Why did you use this mod then if you have no moderators?

[groundup]

i was just testing it

[Big P]

This is a cool mod. dOCda S made it for Y1g and I use it on my perl board. Tis very good. Shouild actually be in the YaBB package!  

[David]

Shuan, will you make this so it can be turned on and off from the admin control panel?

[TheJkWhoSaysNi]

... whats the point? if you want it, follow what he said, if you dont, dont, lol.

[David]

Still, I think mods should be made so they can be turned on or off.  It is for a project I am workin on and need it so it can be enabled or disabled from the admin center.

[Brolly]

If possible, could it be made so the moderator has a drop-box like in the newest version of the vB?

That would look so cool, lol

[kickflip_god]

nah, i find that a bit pants abit............

[kickflip_god]

it dosentwork for me, as i get.........

Parse error: parse error in /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/kickflipguy.34SP.com/httpdocs/forums/Sources/BoardIndex.php on line 193

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: boardindex() in /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/kickflipguy.34SP.com/httpdocs/forums/index.php on line 247

when i did everything right........ , can someone edit for me  or does it not work on version 1.0.0

[PHX]
