Forums Scripts & Popups problem with my theme

hey,

i am trying to make my theme so it loks how i want and i am having troble with on input...

here is my problem...

i can get it to display how i want ex. 10:23pm (@captain_obvious) blah.

but when i press ctrl + enter it displays liek this...

10:23pm <captain_obvious> /clear

teh problem is i want it to diplay like the first one and here is my code... maybe you people can help me




again thanks for any help you can offer!

elseif ($left($1,1) == /) && ($ctrlenter == $true)

Perhaps?

hey man thanks! i still have a problem tough, although my first problem is fixed it still looks liek <nickname> when i type /say or /msg #chan when i want it to echo like (nickname) is teher a way to change that display? any help would be appreciated.

input doesn't cover aliases. You have to redefine /msg, /amsg, /me, /ame, /say, /query and all the rest for a "complete" theme to work.

ahh i fugured out a different way of doing it!
thanks for the help

i haven't tried it yet but i figure before i do i might as well ask...

wouldn't this work?



i am a nweb to the max so i really don't know what all this stuff does yet... but im guessing that $left is the left side of the edit box or what not, and 4 would go 4 charecters over i think i just dont want to go and make all of them if they wont work

if ($left($1,4) == /msg) {
echo -a ...theme here
.msg # $2-
}

Actually pheonix $2- was correct if they are going to type it in input event. Ex: The user types

/msg #mychan hi

that would trigger the id == /msg and the $2 = #mychan $3 = hi

where as your saying /msg # $2- which is now:

/msg #typed-in-chan #mychan hi

as for redifining captain_obvios, try this:

alias msg {
.msg $1-
/echo $color(own) -ti2 $1 (theme here)
}

thanks kingtomato, i tried writing an alias before i tried the if ($left.... bit but it didnt seem practicle call msg inside the alias message... but thanks for teh example it helped me alot!

np, glad to help >:D
