Limited Guest Viewing [Paid] 1.7.3

Not quite sure what that is saying?

Not quite sure what that is saying?

It says up front that this tool sets session cookies. So it stands to reason that if the cookies are deleted it starts a new session on next pageload.

Hi @Wutime

Does this add-on negatively affect unfurling internal URLs when restricting guest views?

We are using a similar add-on that uses embedded URL data via recuperating it in visitors via an HTTP request. When restricting guest views, posting any board URL would give a preview error when unfurling it, but the link will still work. Have you tried to test it before?

Thanks

Is it still possible to download the addon? In the meantime it has been removed from Xenforo. And does @Wutime still provide support at all?

Wutime updated Limited Guest Viewing with a new update entry:

v1.7.2 - Update phrase for multi language RTL

• Move guest counting variable to phrase for multi-language improvement on RTL

There should be no negative affects with regards to unfurling internal URL's.

Yes, this addon can be downloaded.

Yes, support is provided.

Maybe an idea for a new add-on?

Dont show any pictures to guests, but dont affect any unfurl outside the forum?

I know you've answered this question before, earlier in the thread, but there have been a few updates since then. Where can I change the background colour of the warning block asking people to register (ie the red one) please? I looked in appearance - search templates and found the two templates but can't see any colours to change.

Yes there is a negative effect, i had to uninstall it because of that

 

[Alvin63]

I haven't had that issue.

Do you mean this box? (Guest viewing limit reached)

That can be done with css via extra.less

.wutime_lgv .userBanner
{
    background: red;
}

(replace red with the color of your choice, etc.)

The defaults for this element are:

    color: #fff;
    background: #d80000;
    border-color: #a50000;
    border-radius: 4px;

For the entire notice block (yellow, red border) it's .wutime_lgv_block

It actually works great

 

[Roiarthur]

It works so much that Google and other search engine can't reference it

I have the latest version, so mine actually looks like this. Would it be the same procedure? I'd like to change the background to a different colour, and the text to a different colour.

I didn’t even check the version, sorry. It should be close to the same procedure. I can check and update once I return home.


To other posts above, we haven’t had any issue with limited guest viewing and search engines. We don’t use URL unfurling as it doesn’t not look clean in our view. (If other sites link to our content, that can’t be helped and it’s something that is discouraged anyway.)

I was able to change that error block with a simple CSS in extra.less like this:

.blockMessage.blockMessage--error
{
    background: blue;
    color: white;
    border-left: 2px solid white;
}

 

[Alvin63]

Thanks. I tried that and it still came out red Edit. I had missed the first line off. That works There is still a red cross though and a red line round the border of it.

Sorry, I hadn't tested on the default style.

.blockMessage.blockMessage--error.blockMessage--iconic:before
{
    color: green;
}

This will change the icon color.

For the border, I can't replicate that, the test I used above removed the red border. But, let me take another look.
