Zoints Tags module for vBadvanced CMPS

[Zoints]

This is a vBadvanced CMPS tag cloud module for the Zoints Thread Tags System (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=127244). In the words of the author who didn't want credit:

The template is will work in either the center column or in the left / right sidebars. There is a conditional in the template that detects which column the module is in and if in the center column then the search box will will be the same width as the Zoints default screen (40 characters) but if it's in a sidebar then it'll be 20 characters and the 'Submit' button will be on the next line so that the sidebar template will fit into the 175px default width of a CMPS sidebar.

Just import the module (ACP => vBa CMPS => Download / Upload Module) and change your settings as desired. Don't forget that your /{forums}/modules folder needs to be writable in order for module uploads to work.

Attached are screen shots of it in the center and side columns.

Support will be provided at http://network.zoints.com in this specific forum (http://network.zoints.com/forumdisplay.php?f=55).

Thanks go out to our anonymous programmer for this. Enjoy!

:) From request to release it took you just a second!

Great work DChapman! Thanks

[FleaBag]

I'd been silently hoping for this since the main hack was released. This will work a treat! I've been having trouble trying to get my users viewing the tags page.

Zoints is taking over the world!!!!

Great job guys.

I just uploaded version 2 of this module. It allows the cloud to work with various SEO mods.

When i try to upload this module I get the following message,

The file you have uploaded is not a valid module file.

[KW802]

perfphysio, what version of CMPS are you using?

[perfphysio]

I am using 2.2.0

My standard forum is on http://www.physiobob.com/forum
My CMPS version can be seen on http://www.physiobob.com/forum/cmps_index.php

[KW802]

I am using 2.2.0... and your /forum/modules folder is definitely set to 777?

I get this,

Thanks, but how can I modify this to work on vb 3.5 & cmps 2.1?

I tried adding tagcloud to the Portal Output Global Variables in vba cmps but it didn't help. (It worked with other plugins before)

[kompakt]

I got it working. If anyone else needs to do this. Upload the module from this post to the forum then create a new module from a file and set it up like the other one using the identifier zoints_tag_cloud then delete the autogenerated module and you're done.

I'm guess that there is a difference is in the .module format between 2.2 and 2.1 versions of cmps.

Hi,
Is there a way that the mod will show just 10 tags for example , and not the amount that classified in admin cp at "Number of popular tags to show per page".

Yep - look in the code for the module and find this section:


$_tags = $db->query_read("
SELECT zoints_tag.tag, COUNT(*) count FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "zoints_tag zoints_tag
LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "thread thread ON(zoints_tag.threadid = thread.threadid)
WHERE thread.forumid IN(" . implode(',', $visible) . ")
GROUP BY zoints_tag.tag
ORDER BY count DESC
LIMIT " . $vbulletin->options['zointstags_showtags'] . "
");


Just change the LIMIT section to however many you want:


LIMIT " . 10 . "

[efil]

Thank you!
It's working.

I don't know who else is having conflicts with this and vbseo, but on my forum, it seams that the thread views don't work with this installed. Instead of going through this line-by-line to find the problem, I've modified the created file called: zoints_main_cloud.php as follows:

Throw this at the top of the file:

function zoints_cloud ()
{
global $vbulletin, $db, $vbphrase;


and then this at the bottom:


return $home[$mods['modid']]['content'];
}

$home[$mods['modid']]['content'] = zoints_cloud();


This just throws the whole thing into a function to keep from messing things up. I tried to make this a module, but it kept rejecting it ... but, then again, i've never looked up what the restrictions are.

[VBUsers]

can this be set up on a right side column on the forum index ?

[Chachacha]

It doesn't work for me.

[kartik786]

Doesnt work for me either. Module gets installed in the cmps but doesnt reflect on the page.

And yes, the product is active.

[kartik786]

Okay, here's an update.. it works on my showthread which is fetched thru integrating cmps to forum by editing globals.php but doesnt get displayed on cmps ( homepage )

My index.php is in root while forum is in "/forums"

Any guesses how to get it working on homepage ?

[da420]

I had the same problems, but I read the thread and followed these instructions and it worked.

I got it working. If anyone else needs to do this. Upload the module from this post to the forum then create a new module from a file and set it up like the other one using the identifier zoints_tag_cloud then delete the autogenerated module and you're done.

[kartik786]

create a new module from a file and set it up like the other one using the identifier zoints_tag_cloud then delete the autogenerated module

erm .. how do i do this ?

[da420]

Ignore that. Just download the module from the ACP, and then re-import it. There's not much too it.

[FleaBag]

I'm very mad at myself! This was working fine with CMPS 3 and I thought I may have an older version installed. Reinstalled and now it's blank! I tried the fix above to no avail. Does anyone have any ideas?

Shucks, I figured it out! For anyone having problems, just turn "Clean Fule Output" onto the 'No' setting.

[mlucek]

Yes, that's the trick for CMPS 3.0 RC1 :

ACP -> vBA CMPS -> Edit Modules -> Zoints Tag Cloud -> Clean File Output -> No

Tag block then shows up on my CMPS home page !

[tormodg]

I must be blind. I have no "Clean file output" in my vBA CMPS settings anywhere.

Hi tormodg,

Are you sure you're running the latest version of vBadvanced (3.00+)? I am pretty certain that that was an option only in the newer releases. If you do though, once clicking to edit the module for Zoints Tags Cloud, it would be the last section to Main Options.

[wheres me jumpa]

Installed and working fine. However if I place in the left column, the cloud appears too big, ie the 40 setting, but its fine in right hand column. Also if I edit the query to limit to 10 and try import again it gives an error, not a valid module file.

[chatzworld]

i would like a mod to show the cloud on my left hand menu on my site :) but cant figure out how to add this ;(

[thestaton]

Anyone tried this for 3.7?

[deLi_kurT]

Thanks - Click installed

[cionfs]

It's works under vBulletin 3.8.2. :)
