Hi, I have a problem with my scrolling marquee (text-scrolling) center-panel, it's not showing the right scrolling text-message for different user-rights (public and members). And even the panel's name is not showing up.

Here, the panel is showing both messages for public and members when it should be only for members, ie. for non-public users (as I'm looking at it as an Admin here) . The blue texts is for public message, while the green is for members and admins. The panel is showing a scrolling texts for the public (blue texts) but the members' green texts are static, no scrolling...

In member/admin mode ...

In public mode, its also showing the same message ...

The codes I'm using are the same as in the previous version for Fusion 7 which worked fine but not in Fusion 9. In fact for Fusion 7, I had 2 scrolling marquees for admin users where they could see both members and admins messages ... both using these same codes and only changing the (iMEMBER) to (iADMIN). Am I missing some key codes to make this panel work on 9?

I've also tried substituting the "if (iMEMBER) { }" commands with "if (iMEMBER && $access == "iMEMBER") { }" and "if (checkgroup($access)) { }", following some suggestions in this forum thread ...
https://www.mail.php-fusion.co.uk/for...d_id=28114
but both didn't work, and the panel display remained the same with no scrolling texts for member's user_rights.

Is there now a totally different way of writing codes for all panels in Fusion 9, rendering those codes which worked fine on Fusion 7 unusable if not rewritten? I've got a lot of version 7 panels which I'd like to use on 9. Would really like to go public with this new version ASAP when all panels can be fully updated/migrated, hope its an easy ride :|

Thank you in advance for the assistance, guys :)

Hi, please see this thread https://www.php-fusion.co.uk/forum/viewthread.php?thread_id=38535
It should solve it.

Hi @aumay

Please note that we've changed the constant values for iMEMBER, iADMIN and iSUPERADMIN because it fixes a structural flaw in checkgroup() function that couldn't be amended by any means. These values collided with group_id. So that group_id of 103 is also considered super administrators in access checks. It's just that nobody has 103th User Group so far.

In order for these panels to work with Version 9, all you going need to do is to add a negative sign in your user_level for each members registered in your website. See how it's done from @Falk's link.

Please go to your PHPMYAdmin and find {db_prefix}_users table and change "user_level" column structure.

Type - TINYINT
Length/Values - 4
Default - "-101"

Then for each entry, your user level is 101 (is a member) now needs to become (-101)
Same for admin 102 to become (-102)
Same for iSUPERADMIN 103 to become (-103)

See if this helps.

TQ for the suggestions.

I have changed the "user_level" column structure as suggested

I've also changed the user_level for each member & admin from 101 to -101 and 103 to -103.

Changed the theme to Fusion 9's Septenary, still no luck.

Could this be a problem on my webhost/database? Or maybe, there's some limitation with what I could do on a freehost? Can anyone suggest a free hosting site you've had a good run with?

Thanx for the suggestion karrak. This still doesn't work, well, its almost working but not quite. The texts are now scrolling but both texts for Members and Public are showing up/scrolling at the same time instead of just the Member's texts, since I'm logged in. And then there are those codes that should not be visible to anyone. Also, the panel is not showing up as a Panel box, like the other panels on the page (I suppose this is because of deleting the '<?php' & '?>' tags at the top&bottom of the codes).

Changed opentable() tags to openside() .... same problem ... panel box not showing up, both texts (for members & public) scroll at the same time, and the codes for the container (panel-box) become visible. Added another center-panel and a left side-panel ... same problem. For the lower center-panel just added, the music is playing fine, so the embed codes are okay. For the side-panel, the images are scrolling as supposed to (from bottom to top), so the codes are okay too. There are a few other panels I have not enabled because they have this same problem. Some are not even showing up at all even when they have been enabled.

In all these problems, I noticed its the panel-box that's not showing up, and the codes (to make that box visible) are made visible instead of the panel-box itself. Am I missing something here in the codes? Am I using the right syntax (for this Version 9)? Also, the Admin rights have been changed from 103 to -103 (negative) ... the panel doesn't seem to accept that (new code, -103) as a panel only to be accessed with Super-Admin rights, or to differentiate it between 103 and -103 admin rights. I don't know, there's something really big I have missed in these codes. I've changed according to all the recommendations given so far, its just not working. Is anyone facing this problem with these panels?
