    Free Mod Enhanced Floating Bar

    This vBulletin 5 Floating Bar modification has the same basic features as the default vBulletin 5 floating bar with the following awesome additional features:
    • More noticeable bar when floating. Same background as the main navigation bar.
    • Better pagination controls. Same controls as the ones at the bottom of the Topic detail page.
    • Has Go to Top button.
    • Has the +Subscribe/Subscribed/Unsubscribe button. The page does not reload (like the default behavior) when these buttons are clicked.
    • Has the Message link and notification.
    • Has the Profile menu similar to the one on the top right corner of the page.
    • Has the navigation menu that includes the main navigation bar items, breadcrumbs, footer, language chooser (if available), and style chooser (if available).
    • Enables the floating bar to some pages (e.g. Memberlist, Profile, etc.) where the bar does not float by default.
    • Supports RTL.
    Compatibility: 5.2.2 and below. This is not compatible with 5.2.3 and up due to the new Message chat dropdown.

    See screenshots below.

    Download the file, uncompress it and then upload the XML file in AdminCP > Products & Hooks > Manage Products.

    I have this product installed. It rocks! Just to let everyone know, Glenn offers branding free for a small price which I took advantage of.

    Enjoy,
    William

        How did you get the vb messenger drop down? Is that the default or Glenn's enhanced bar?

        I think my mod gets whatever is in the top bar. I'm not sure though if the dropdown for the messenger will appear when clicked.

      I haven't checked this mod in 5.2.3 yet. Will do when I get a chance.

        Glenn, I purchased the branding free version of this mod, and it is old. Will I need to purchase it again after you update it (branding free). Or will that be available to me?

        I missed your comment William. It's been a long time since I updated this mod but I checked my emails I sent you before and you have v1.1 of the mod. So it is older than what I have now. You can have the latest branding free version for free. But it seems like this mod is currently disabled on your site?

        Hi Glenn, I disabled the bar because I couldn't figure out various css conflicts. I was having issues with the color combination. I would try the newest one and then ask you for help if I can't figure it out. Oh yea, I also disabled it because I was trying to track down why I had so many requests. I believe it had nothing to do with your bar.

      hello,

      i just wanted to verify an issue i have noticed that i sent glenn a pm about after 5.2.3 came out..but now i still see it in 5.2.4 and i verified it to this floating bar by disabling the hook for it and noticing things going back to normal...

      i believe it has to do with what william is talking about....specifically this example can show you...i have 2 chats open with a few comments in them....by default this would show one link per conversation.....instead it lists "per comment" which is clearly a problem quickly

      the other buggy thing i noticed is sometimes when trying to hover into those menus, the hover breaks and they will disappear instead of allowing the navigation...

      also, you may want to know that i am having this effect, not only in the floating bar while browsing topics, but on the main page user bar..

      i love this mod, hoping to be able to fix it so i can turn it back on...vb5 keeps getting closer, slowly by slowly but im digging back into things again for a bit, see what we can do with it

      thanks for all the great work glenn, top notch stuff and looking forward to some of these other projects i see you busy with

          I confirmed the issue of this mod in 5.2.3 due to the breaking changes introduced by the chat dropdown in the top bar. I will fix this when I get a chance but I cannot promise when.

            Also...
            For vB 5.1x-5.2.1 (don't have 5.2.2 to test) there is a top positioning issue with the vBSocial Toolbar, Enhanced, Ultimate and Social 10 versions, and I suspect any which are not the default. Click image for larger version

            This can be corrected manually by setting the top: 0px; value to 16px;

            Code:
            element {
                z-index: 99;
                width: auto;
                right: auto;
                top: 16px;
                bottom: auto;
            }
            I don't know if any sort of test can be performed to distinguish between the different bars, but an option to enter the spacing value would be useful considering. Click image for larger version

            Adding this code to css_additional.css will resolve this.
            Code:
            /* Start Fix Enhanced Floating Bar for non-default toolbar */
            div.conversation-toolbar {
                top: 16px;
            }
            /* End Fix Enhanced Floating Bar for non-default toolbar */

              PS On Social 10, a value of 32 is needed.

                I am running into an issue on 5.2.6 with this mod. The Messages/Profile links are clickable but menus do not show up. Seems similar to some of the other issues that were mentioned here.

                  This mod was broken since the vB Messenger was introduced. I haven't fixed it yet.

                    Any chance you could split the "back to Top" part of it out as a mini-mod until you have a chance to sort the main mod out?

                  #12
                  Please fix this mod.

                  Hello Glenn,

                  Unless things change I would be interested in this mod too.

                  Have a Nice Day!!!!!

                    Do you have time to update this mod for recent versions of vB?
