WHERE IS THE SIGNATURE?

I installed the signature plugin and enabled it but can't see where i add signatures

You might have done what I did. Once you've enabled the plugin you need to go to 'Signatures', under Forum in the dashboard, and enable signatures there. Took me a while to find it!

@eoxh

technically you would be four or five, unless too== two.

but who's counting, eh.

Lol I bet everyone who installs the plugin goes to this thread. A good suggestion for the next version would be to remove the need to do that, it's redundant and inconsistent with the behaviour of other plugins.

Agreed - I did it too!

As far as I know, it's already been removed, we just haven't re-released it because it was changed for 2.1.

I have activated the plugin and enabled signatures but I can't find where I manage the actual signature.

Can someone point me to where I actually add/edit the signature?

hgtonight

Go to your edit profile screen http://forum.example.com/profile/edit.

There should be a signature settings link.

nicelife

I actually don't have the signature settings link there.

This is how it looks: http://awesomescreenshot.com/0871wgp32c

hgtonight

It should be in the sidebar.

What version number of Vanilla are you running?

Try switching to the default theme and see if it shows up.

nicelife

Heeey .. There it is!!!

Awesome and thanks a bunch!

nicelife

To clarify if someone else has got the same problem: I switched to the default theme.

Is there somehow I can enable/disable signatures on the user level?

Shadowdare

There doesn't seem to be permission settings to enable or disable signatures on the user level with Signatures v1.1.5.

The permissions system is designed to check across roles and categories. Permissions are also additive. I wouldn't mind seeing some operators for role permissions (and, or, nor, xor, etc.). Not sure if the added complexity is really worth it.

I don't think there is really a push for it from the devs since they use a Ranks plugin to add and remove certain permissions based on arbitrary criteria.

@nicelife

if you use peregrine badges and want to base signatures on badges or points and you make a donation to me via paypal for $10, I will then pm you modifications.

if no donation and role-based solution is acceptable do the following:

Otherwise, you can modify the current 'Version' => '1.1.5', signature plugin to work for you.

in class.signatures.plugin.php

1 - disable the signatures  plugin

2 -  change line  relating to RegisterPermissions  (arround line 20)

to

'RegisterPermissions' => array('Plugins.Signatures.Edit' => 0),


3 -  change around line 56 or so

from

 if (!C('Plugins.Signatures.Enabled'))
         return;

to

     if (!C('Plugins.Signatures.Enabled'))
         return;

      if (!Gdn::Session()->CheckPermission(array('Plugins.Signatures.Edit' ))) 
         return;   


4 - enable signatures plugin.


5  in dashboard roles and permissions - for each role.
       you will see a new checkbox for edit signature.  check it for roles that you want to have ability to add and edit signatures.

---

github also has a new signatures plugin in the add-ons for vanilla 2.1x

since you failed to mention your version of vanilla, because there is no message added by the admins of this forum - to alert new users the importance of adding the vanilla version. Answering questions will take twice as long.
