something wrong with the code....try to re-paste the code in your bookmark.
 
Are you just pasting the code each time? That code is specifically meant to be used for a "links" button (bookmark) in Internet Explorer and the similar in other browsers. Just click the links button and it automatically inserts the badge and submits the post. If yours isn't autosubmitting then you know the bookmark ins't setup right.

 
Testing code snippet from bottom of personal hardfolding stats page with bookmark javascript in Opera9...


 
testing badge...

Edit: yay! It worked this time!
Edit 2: Oh crap, all my borgs shut down :eek:

 
can someone help?


When I moved over to IE7 release candidate, my button stopped working. I waited a few weeks and now I'm trying to fix it. But I cannot.

I pasted the new code over from hard folding but the link [H] no longer works for me. Nada. I found these directions and followed them:

Click on:
-Favorites​
-Add to Favorites...​
-Rename "[H]ardfolding.com - [H]ome of the [H]orde" to "[H]" (its what I do..)​
-You can select "Links" for the folder to save it to​
-This saves it to your "Favorites/Bookmarks" that are seen from your main window​
-If you cannot see it:​
-Click on "View"​
-Toolbars​
-Then make sure "Links" has a Check-Mark next to it​
-THEN go to the Bookmark you just made; [H]:​
-Right click, select Properties​
-Delete anything thats in the "URL:" Line​
-PASTE the code you copied earlier from hardfolding.com stats page​
-Click "ok"​
-A popup will say: "The protocol "javascript" does not have a registered program. Do you want to keep this target anyway?​
-Click "Yes"​
 
I don't have IE7, but it is possible that they might restrict/block code in bookmarks.

Did you check Tools / Options / Advanced to see if it is possible?

I can try to look at it tonight if you can't get it working
 
I just checked. Thanks. Good advice. But I found nothing about running anything from within a bookmark. Let me know if you find anything.

I really like using IE7. But I want my badge back!
 
I just did that test with IE7.

Steps that I took were:

From hardfolding.com, I dragged and dropped the [H] from the address bar to the favorites menu.

copied the code from my page for the badge

went to favorites bar, right clicked on the bookmark i just made, replaced it with the copied code.

Clicked "ok" twice when the warning box popped up, then it works fine from there.


Try that out and see if it works... and if someone else has had success with another method, or with the above method, let me know

I get an "error on page" message when I follow the steps.

Did you use IE 7 release candidate?
 
I used whichever one they had up for the ie7 page, guessing its the newest one :\

Was a p.i.t.a. trying to figure out how to get the stupid thing to bookmark.

Maybe you just broke your copy :p

Hold on a second, what text editor do you use for the forums? The WYSIWYG doesn't work with the badges, you need to use the standard editor - extra formatting controls. Check that under your User CP - options.

That was it!

I recently switched "Message Editor Interface" controls to the enhance interface/ full WYSIWYG. I just switched back, and now the button works again! Thanks!
