Hi

I'd like to add signature-like text to every message but before posting it. What I want to achive is that when I create new message (not a queoted reply) in the body message I've already got this text (something like "Hi\n\nBest regards.".

The only problem is that I can't make it work. I tried to hardcode it in forum_data/src/post.php.t just before $msg_body=str_replace("\r", "", $msg_body), then created upgrade.php and upgraded the forum. I always get the blank body.

Maybe I chose incorrect file?

You were correct in modifying forum_data/src/post.php.t, however I suspect you did not make your modification in the correct place.

you should add something like this:
if (!strlen($msg_body)) {
$msg_body = "Hi\n\nBest regards.";
}

Hi

What I've found out is that I made modifications in the right place, but the forum wasn't rebuild after upgrade. So post.php in every theme wasn't even touched. I think this is an upgrade bug.

Also post.php.t in $forum_data/src in the fudforum installation wasn't touched.

What do you mean was not rebuilt? You made the modifications to post.php.t, then rebuilt a theme and you are saying the compiled post.php was identical?

No.
I took the CVS version (cvs checkout fud21_upgrade) and changed post.php.t in that directory structure. Then I generated upgrade.php file, and upgraded forum.

After doing above things, I noticed that post.php.t and post.php (in the theme dir) in already installed forum haven't changed.

Or maybe I should change the version number so that upgrade.php would install new post.php.t file?

You should not do upgrade and so on, simply modify the post.php.t in the installed forum and then rebuilt the theme.
