What is this stuff?
Addons are custom features that you can add to your Vanilla forum. Addons are created by our community of developers and people like you!
Will it work on my Vanilla Forum?
These addons are for people who downloaded and set up their own Vanilla forum. Compare your downloaded version with the version requirements on the right.
If your Vanilla forum is hosted at VanillaForums.com, this addon may already be installed there.
Vanilla Approved?
We review addons to make sure they are safe and don't cause bugs. An addon is considered to be "Vanilla Approved" once our review process is complete.

Get Vanilla NowDirect Menu Sign In 0.3
/plugins folder to install it.Displays a sign in form in the top menu when the user is not logged in. The form skips 'people.php'.
As 0.3, it returns to the current page the user is visiting, e.g. if the user logs in on the categories page, it will return as a logged user in the categories page. As far as I tested, this does work with pages created with page manager and also inside discussions, both with standard url building method and mod_rewrite, although with mod_rewrite, the user will see the standard url as result of the logging in.
Attention: this extension will probably need some CSS tweaking with any theme other than the default vanilla. Moreover, if you have users with IE, must make the submit button visible. the fix should be something like editing the style.css provided with the extension, replacing this .Submit {display:none;} for this .Submit {position: relative; top: -20px;} or something similar depending on where you want the button to be in the layout.. sorry for the inconvenience!
In order to get the links working properly, the file 'people_signin_form_nopostback.php' in your theme folder should be edited in lines 25 & 26, replacing '$this->Context->SelfUrl' for '"people.php"'. More on this in the readme.
This is a suitable example for a black-based style.
