That's probably an issue with your theme. Do you have any customized templates in the Forum Display Templates group? Please post this issue in a new thread if are still having problems.

This was caused by a template modification a few posts up so not to worry

[scylla]

Nope, no changes except for the ones listed above.

It was those that added the new column... can you see how to fix it?? I think it would be a very good modification if that extra column was gone.

[scylla]

Oh well, as long as people just lock & sticky threads instead of making announcements, they'll be fine Xd

thanks for the fix i love mybb

Post updated, it seems that it only effects IE browsers as I didnt see the error in firefox.

If like me, you had 'star_ratings.css' missing, you may be missing other files. I only had global.css listed in "Stylesheets in MyBB Default"

modcp.css
http://community.mybboard.net/cache/them.../modcp.css

showthread.css
http://community.mybboard.net/cache/them...thread.css

usercp.css
http://community.mybboard.net/cache/them...usercp.css

star_ratings.css
http://community.mybboard.net/cache/them...atings.css

Follow same procedure as in Matt's first post with each file. I hope I am not missing any

Gordon

You're completely right. I have seen a few User CPs and Mod CPs with the menu on the left showing as just plain links - if you have this problem, like Gordone said, use the procedure in the first post, but change the name and the actual CSS you use

(09-11-2008 02:54 AM)scylla Wrote:  To get rid of the rating completely here's what you have to do:

Step 1: Goto Admin CP --> Templates & Style --> Templates --> Default Templates

Now expand Show Thread Templates --> showthread_ratethread

Choose full edit, delete everything in there and paste this in it's place:

After you pasted this, move on to step 2 in this post.

Code:

<!--
<div style="margin-top: 6px; padding-right: 10px;" class="float_right">
        <script type="text/javascript" src="jscripts/rating.js?ver=1400"></script>
        <div id="success_rating_{$thread['tid']}" style="float: left; padding-top: 2px; padding-right: 10px;">&nbsp;</div>
        <strong style="float: left; padding-right: 10px;">{$lang->thread_rating}</strong>
        <div class="inline_rating">
            <ul class="star_rating{$not_rated}" id="rating_thread_{$thread['tid']}">
                <li style="width: {$thread['width']}%" class="current_rating" id="current_rating_{$thread['tid']}">{$ratingvotesav}</li>
                <li><a class="one_star" title="{$lang->one_star}" href="./ratethread.php?tid={$thread['tid']}&amp;rating=1&amp;my_post_key={$mybb->post_code}">1</a></li>
                <li><a class="two_stars" title="{$lang->two_stars}" href="./ratethread.php?tid={$thread['tid']}&amp;rating=2&amp;my_post_key={$mybb->post_code}">2</a></li>
                <li><a class="three_stars" title="{$lang->three_stars}" href="./ratethread.php?tid={$thread['tid']}&amp;rating=3&amp;my_post_key={$mybb->post_code}">3</a></li>
                <li><a class="four_stars" title="{$lang->four_stars}" href="./ratethread.php?tid={$thread['tid']}&amp;rating=4&amp;my_post_key={$mybb->post_code}">4</a></li>
                <li><a class="five_stars" title="{$lang->five_stars}" href="./ratethread.php?tid={$thread['tid']}&amp;rating=5&amp;my_post_key={$mybb->post_code}">5</a></li>
            </ul>
        </div>
</div>
-->

Step 2: Now open Forum Display Templates --> forumdisplay_thread_rating

And again choose full edit and replace all of the coding in it with this:

Code:

<!--
<td align="center" class="{$bgcolor}" id="rating_table_{$thread['tid']}">
        <ul class="star_rating{$not_rated}" id="rating_thread_{$thread['tid']}">
            <li style="width: {$thread['width']}%" class="current_rating" id="current_rating_{$thread['tid']}">{$ratingvotesav}</li>
        </ul>
        <script type="text/javascript">
        <!--
            Rating.build_forumdisplay({$thread['tid']}, { width: '{$thread['width']}', extra_class: '{$not_rated}', current_average: '{$ratingvotesav}' });
        // -->
        </script>
    </td>-->

One last step that I just worked out to completely remove it:

open --> forumdisplay_threadlist

and copy & paste this

Code:

<div class="float_left">
    {$multipage}
</div>
<div class="float_right">
    {$newthread}
</div>
<table border="0" cellspacing="{$theme['borderwidth']}" cellpadding="{$theme['tablespace']}" class="tborder" style="clear: both;">

And here is what the end result will look like: http://codeshq.site88.net/cheat-codes-f-32.html

True, nice fix. I have, however, found one small error (click to enlarge):

To fix, remove the --> from the very end of the second piece of code.

Code:

<!--<td align="center" class="{$bgcolor}" id="rating_table_{$thread['tid']}"> <ul class="star_rating{$not_rated}" id="rating_thread_{$thread['tid']}"> <li style="width: {$thread['width']}%" class="current_rating" id="current_rating_{$thread['tid']}">{$ratingvotesav}</li> </ul> <script type="text/javascript"> <!-- Rating.build_forumdisplay({$thread['tid']}, { width: '{$thread['width']}', extra_class: '{$not_rated}', current_average: '{$ratingvotesav}' }); // --> </script></td>

I think it would be better if that when the user group settings say users of that group cannot rate threads, that column goes. I think that would be easier if you eved decide you want the column back.

Hmm afraid my problem still persists, still can't see my stars.

Check for yourself http://www.fearstavern.com/forum

[MattR]

I don't think the path to the star is right.
Make sure star.gif is in your images folder.

[MSJ]

I think we may be talking about two different things...I meant the stars aren't showing up...not the star rating. Like the ones below your name.

[MattR]

Yeah I didn't realise at first... I edited my above post
