Profile Commenting System

[eXtremeTim]

What does this hack do?

It gives you a commenting system on the users profile page similiar to the myspace system.

Allows smilies and bbcodes but not html.

Demo: http://www.extremewebtech.com/forums/members/tim.html


Whats coming in the next release?
Ajax and wysiwyg

This is the newest release with the updates form the thread. Next up AJAX!!!

[eXtremeTim]

There was a bug in the system that I just fixed so if you already downloaded please redownload.

[Abomonation]

Very nice, Thanks.

[Tralala]

Awesome!

[eXtremeTim]

Please remember to click install.

[Allan]

Screens please because we must register for see your demo ^^

Suggestion: Add the query in the product, and add the unistall query.

[eXtremeTim]

Demo test account info is test2323 for user and password.

Yea i ment to add the query in and forgot at the time of exporting it and will add it into the next version.

[dizzy100]

That demo account doesn't work ?

Much better to provide screenshots mate. Easier for all concerned.

[EnIgMa1234]

nice hack. gj

[AMG021]

Here is a screen Shot I took from the demo!

[TheMilkCarton]

Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: vb_bbcodeparser in /*snip*/public_html/forums/misc.php(96) : eval()'d code on line 11

I get that when clicking "View All Comments" on my boards.

Other than that, keep up the great work! I'll be looking forward to future releases of this, although I hope I find a way to fix this All Comments error. :( I've upped the amount of comments that show in the profile for now.

[elmati]

Hi, nice mod!

let me test it out :)

ill come back later

[Ultimative]

Anyway to display to current amount of Comments the user has? Similar to what you see on MySpace. If not that would be an extremely good addition for an update.

[TheMilkCarton]

@Ultimative

Add to bottom of Member Commenting System plugin$comment_total=$vbulletin->db->num_rows($commentsquery);

if($vbulletin->db->num_rows($commentsquery)<5)
{$comment_shown=$vbulletin->db->num_rows($commentsquery);
}
else
{$comment_shown=5;
}
The "5" of course is the default amount of comments to be shown. If you haven't already changed the amount of comments shown, you don't need to worry about changing this.
-------
Add the red to MEMBERINFO template:
<td valign="top" class="alt1">
&nbsp;Viewing $comment_shown of $comment_total Comments
<table cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center" class="tborder">
$commentbits

If eXtremeTim finds this code suitable, he's free to copy it into a future update. :)

Edit: I'm not worried about it, but this will show up as "1 of 1 Comments" which may bother some, since it should say "Comment". If this bothers you, it's very easy to fix. :)
------------------
@ eXtremeTim:

I fixed my "View All Comments" problem. For whatever reason I had to add require_once('./includes/class_bbcode.php'); and require_once('./includes/functions_user.php'); to the plugin that was at "misc_start". I think I have a modified misc.php file, so that may be the problem?

[elmati]

works like a charm!

thx a lot for this, i love it! :)

[Abomonation]

View all comments, when clicked it comes up with this error

Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: vb_bbcodeparser in /home/mybobba/public_html/profiles/misc.php(96) : eval()'d code on line 71

Abomonation, do what I said in my last post.

Put the first above if(!$bbcode_parser)
Put the second above $avatar_url

See if that helps you.

Do I have to uninstall this hack? https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=103881

i doubt you do

[Abomonation]

Thanks Dude!

[eXtremeTim]

yea i broke the view all comments when I moved it from members.php to misc.php. Sorry about that. I moved it becuase vbseo was breaking the comment system.

[elmati]

eXtremeTim point to post #15 i make an update used for me...
take a look :)

[eXtremeTim]

I will release version 1.0.3 in a bit.

[eXtremeTim]

Version 1.0.3 has been released.

[Tralala]

Looking forward to the AJAX/wysiwyg update!!

[elmati]

Ok, the 1.0.3 got some issues...

is callin to misc.php?u=UID, that page dont exist must be: member.php?u=UID (fixed)
View more comments dont work... (fixed)

i added a installcode and uninstallcode, so no need to run the query manually.
also i added the template to the template system, so just need put $guestbook somewhere in MEMBERINFO Template
and also i move every text into phrases :)

I made some changes in the product.xml to correct the issues...
take a look into the zip i upload :)

i hope this help...

sorry i cant access:S
i dont know why...

tellme the hack name to search...


Otherwise, if you say that its the same thing i think you need choose one.
I recommend this one its simple nice coded :)

[dj_melayu]

It's the same I guess. Which one is better? :)

[elmati]

@dj_melayu:

im using this one.
And when eXtremeTim add the ajax feature will be great! :)

im using this without problems and just add 1 query to memberinfo.


best regards!

[Kyderoy]

I am confused on which file to download.... Elmati or eXtreme Tim.

[elmati]

i recommend you download twice

in mine i add everything you can read in my latest post with attachment.

Best regards.

[Kyderoy]

Why twice?

[elmati]

to test, and experiment with both...

read about my changes, there are just for facility new users that dont knows how to run a query, etc...

:)

[Kyderoy]

Thanks.. I used yours because i didn't know how to run the queries.

Any chance you guys can do a hack that give members a webpage where they can use html?

[elmati]

there was an addon that make that...
something like webpage & profile comments...
but it was not well done as i remember...

try searchin on the forums :)

[eXtremeTim]

Mine is updated and has the view all comments fix that I made for my site plus a few other fixes so I recommend you download mine.

[eXtremeTim]

if you installed his just overwrite his plugin with my newest one and you will have all my updates.

[Trana]

When clicking on the user's avatar (in their comment), I am directed to the smiley selection box.

[TheMilkCarton]

Change the "misc.php" to "member.php" in the comment template. I caught this issue too.

eXtremeTim.. what was actually changed in the new update? Was it just the View All Comments fix?

[eXtremeTim]

it was a problem with the deletion system as well. I will fix the misc.php in the comment template in the next version. Sorry about that. Most all of these problems were caused by me moving it from member.php to misc.php to avoid vbseo breaking it.

[elmati]

yeah, as eXtremeTim says its recommended download his hack, cause his the owner and his support the hack :)

Otherwise, as i said mine (on post #26 (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1234224&postcount=26)) have install/uninstall code, all text turn onto phrases, easy to translation, all templated and added the "Viewing 5 of 10 messages" addon by TheMilkCarton. fix for member.php and try to make it XHTML compatible.
but, i dont provide any support cuz its no my hack :)
I just repair for me, and share with yall :)

Best regards :)

[eXtremeTim]

I will add some of the stuff from your product into the next release. :)

[Trana]

Change the "misc.php" to "member.php" in the comment template. I caught this issue too.

eXtremeTim.. what was actually changed in the new update? Was it just the View All Comments fix?

Do you mean make this change within the memberinfo template or within the plugin code?

[perju]

Great Hack, Thank you.

I'm trying to get a flashing arrow next to the term Comments in my navbar to reflect new comments since last activity (akin to New Private Messages). I can't seem to get it to work.

Where would you recommend I run the query? (i.e. if comment[dateline] > lastactivity) and how would i condition it in the template? (i.e. if condition="newcomment")

Thanks again for this hack.

[elmati]

@Trana: Login onto your admincp, goto styles and edit your style.
in: ewt_memberprofile_commentbits
find misc.php and replace with member.php.

Done.

[Trana]

It would be great if it sent a PM to the member when someone left a comment.

[Veer]

It will be great if it install without running query, i don't like to run query :(

[elmati]

It will be great if it install without running query, i don't like to run query :(
@pehchaan: wait for the next release o download the file i upload... with the query inside the product.xml :)

@Trana: im workin on that, but without pm, just an advice on the navbar o header...

[TheMilkCarton]

I've been trying to add the WYSIWYG editor. I have it showing up and "working" but when I post the comment there is only a <br />. I have gotten it to post the words a few times but the BBcode doesn't parse anymore.

I made a custom template with a customized editor_toolbar, and in the "<textarea />" I tried changing the name="message" to name="comment" but it's still not working. UGH.

[Gizmo5h1t3]

real weird this, ive got it displayin in some members profiles, but not others???

why would this be??

when either myself, or other members go viewing ppls profiles to add comments, some have the comments box, and some dont....

and its not like its usergroup specific either.....

[eXtremeTim]

Interesting.

Make sure you didnt paste the template edit anywhere where its inside a template conditional.

[Gizmo5h1t3]

Interesting.

Make sure you didnt paste the template edit anywhere where its inside a template conditional.

you hit the nail on the head tim...thats the reason.
problem is, on a clean install, itll work fine in that template...
but, with hacks added, as u know, where u tell ppl to put the code in the MEMBERINFO template, i had an <if> conditional blanketing it...so some would show, some wouldnt.....

sorted now....

nice 1 m8.


for further reference for others, if they get the same thing happening on theirs...

i put mine BELOW THIS CODE.

<!-- / User Home Page Table -->
</if>

clicked install....

You need to modify your "ewt_memberprofile_commentbits" template:

change "misc.php?u=$commentposteruserid" to "member.php?u=$commentposteruserid" in a couple of places.

I will spend some time on this using the stuff everybody helped out with to produce a much better ajax version with corrections to all the problems that have been reported.

[eXtremeTim]

elmati's updated release is being adopted as the framework for the ajax version since it containt all my fixes plus a bit extra. :)

Thanks elmati. :)

[eXtremeTim]

I have updated the first post with the modified product file that was provided thanks to elmati. :)

[TheMilkCarton]

eXtremeTim --

I recommend changing the amount of comments shown in the profile (5 by default in your plugin) to a variable and adding it into the vB Options for an admin to change more easily than going into the plugin and editing all the 5's.

Also, did you ever incorporate the "add-on" I released (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1234001&postcount=14) on the first page of this thread? A user requested a "Viewing X of X Comments" in the user's profile. I thought it was a nice addition, but you obviously don't have to add it if it's not your thing :)

Edit: I also forgot to mention I've added WYSIWYG to this if you hadn't worked on this yet. However, I think I may have to add something into a vBullletin JS or PHP file.. Currently the "id="{$editorid}_textarea"" in the "editor_toolbar" template breaks the comment system.

[eXtremeTim]

good idea

[TheMilkCarton]

I've got the Standard editor implemented into this now. For some reason when you switch into WYSIWYG comments won't post, though. The standard editor is at least good enough for me. I've stripped it down and it's using it's own template so it takes up very little room.

63728

It's at least easier than typing out all the BBcode by hand. You'll notice I got rid of the Font Size box and I'm not allowing images in comment posts. I'll allow images once I have a decent method of keeping all the images small enough to not stretch out the page.

If anyone at least wants to know how to get the standard editor implemented just reply to this and I'll type up the code. I don't really want to take the time to make this into a product because I have a lot of custom code in my templates I'd need to get rid of first. :down:

Also, if anyone wants to help figure out why WYSIWYG comments show up blank, then that'd be great, too. :)

[bazzup]

My templates are custom made by me. So I doubt you have the same template that I do. ;) You will just have to play around with your style till you get it where you want.

If anyone can get WYSIWYG WORKING, please do and SHARE.

The newest version of this product is changed from the one I'm using, so I'm not guaranteeing this will work 100%. Also, looking at the new XML file, I can see my "Viewing X of X Comments" did make it into the product, so can I be made a contributor or whatever it is called? ;)

Edit: Note that this version doesn't have any IMG buttons, but that's because I'm using this in a column that's very thin so I'm not allowing images (IMG bbcode can technically still be typed out though). It shouldn't be that hard to add it back in, but good luck anyway. :)

[tamborinegal]

Please make it so it PM's the user once they have been left a comment ;)

That feature can be added into the que of what needs done. :)

Great hack Tim. I love it! Thank you. Just wondering, did the PM on comment feature make it into the latest release?

Also can moderators delete comments or is it only the member and the admin that have permission to do that?

Cheers

Is it done with Ajax?

[TheMilkCarton]

Can someone explain the interest in AJAX? MySpace doesn't use AJAX to post comments.. and I think Facebook just started using AJAX.

I don't think AJAX adds anything to this mod because it's quite easy to add a comment already. You click "Post Comment" and then it simply reloads the page. Wouldn't AJAX be more server intensive than this anyway? I always hear everyone hating on the Shoutbox, which would essentially be what this Profile Comment System is if it were to include AJAX.

[eXtremeTim]

I will have an ajax version out soon enough.

[elmati]

eXtremeTim --
Also, did you ever incorporate the "add-on" I released (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1234001&postcount=14) on the first page of this thread? A user requested a "Viewing X of X Comments" in the user's profile. I thought it was a nice addition, but you obviously don't have to add it if it's not your thing :)


i incorporate your addon on my xml as soon as you posted :)
i think its on the new xml updated by extremTim

[vspro]

I think have a count for total comments of a user in posbit or navbar ...

I'd like to know that as well. Thanks. :)

I'd like to know that as well. Thanks. :)

I just installed the latest release and it doesn't look like the PM on comment did make it in.

Also Tim, I don't know if you're aware of it or not, but when you don't type anything into the comment field and click submit, it shows this error - Could not find phrase 'error_requiredfields'.

Is there any way you could add in a "are you sure you want to delete this comment" page. I can easily imagine accidentally deleting a comment the way it is.

Thanks again for releasing this.

Clancy

[eXtremeTim]

I will fix the required fields problem in the ajax release.

Confirm delete page will hopefully make it into the next version depends on what I get done in what order.

Ah, I think this would be one of the most important things.

This is one way to add the PM thing. I haven't done php in forever, but I know this wouldn't be too hard.

There was also another thread about it, but I can't find it right now.

is this version with ajax or still?

[eXtremeTim]

no ajax yet.

[PinkDaisy]

Sweet! Gonna install today.. this would be even better if it sent you an auto PM when you got a comment!! :D

how come it adds 1 querie to memberprofile for each comment given??? if i have 10, it will add 10 queries....

[rossco_2005]

To install it on 3.5 you need to remove the part that goes
executionorder="5"

[Zweeper]

you mean this code?

<plugin active="1" executionorder="5">
<title>User Commenting Cache</title>
<hookname>cache_templates</hookname>
<phpcode><![CDATA[if (THIS_SCRIPT == 'member')

[eXtremeTim]

yep thats the code remove executionorder="5"

[mrmike]

Great hack, thanx!

A nice feature would be a forumhome "Latest post in guestbook" :up:

[rabbits slayer]

Anyway users or mods can delete their own comments posted on other members page?

[Mrdby]

3.6.6?

[rabbits slayer]

Mine works fine on 3.6.6

can i edit options for this under the vbull options section? If so where is it found?

Not yet.

Installed, nice and easy.

It's been a while since a last update. How's everything going with this hack Tim? How's the AJAX part going and do you already have an ETA for the next release?

[Living in music]

Don't have update since 28. Apr 2007 ...

[Drix]

Does this work on 3.6.7 PL1?

I would love to try it out.

[sonichero]

i see no reason why it wouldnt....

[chuchukuttie]

No update since 28th of April :'(

[BozzaJos]

Indeed.. I am still watching for the AJAX feature before installing it... hope it will come soon!

[MP1]

Perfect!!!

[MSheraz86]

Clicked Installed

Wonderful mod :)

Thanks

Anyone know how to change the max allowed characters in the comments. I have had some users leave comments and their words are getting cut off.

Waiting ................................................ AJAX

[rokked]

If you can tell me how to grab the profileowners username, I can get this to send a PM whenever a new comment is made.

Currently all I can find is: the commenting person's UserId, the commenting person's username, the profile owners profileID and the comment. Any help on getting the profile owner's name and I can set this up.

[Trana]

I received notification that a message was posted with this:

"i hacked it up so this mod will now send PMs when someone comments on your profile..."

Was it removed?

it was posting PMs to the person leaving the comment, so I removed it, my post above you states what I need to get in order for the code to work.

Very Nice I like it! And im using it.

[aztecboi2003]

Any idea of when the Ajax version is coming? I don't know what Ajax is or does but since everyone wants it I will wait until it's added.

[Propozime]

hi guys i'm new at this can some one please take me step by step how to install this

[Kungfu]

Any idea of when the Ajax version is coming? I don't know what Ajax is or does but since everyone wants it I will wait until it's added.

its so clients can talk to php without having to refresh.

On the forum if you are an admin any easy way to show this would be if you double click next to a thread title it will allow you edit the thread title. With ajax you can do stuff like this so you wouldnt have to go to another or "refresh" the page.

So basically in this mod you would be able to add a comment and it would update right away without refreshing.

Not a huge deal, just saves a little bit a bandwidth and looks nicer and clean.

[Carlos2]

Hi friends, how can i increase the number of characters of these? The things the users can write are too short.

I went into mysql and into the ewt_memberprofile_comments table and edited commenttext from tinyblog to mediumtext.

seems to work. i dont suggest anyone else try it

extremeTim, thanks for the mod, installed and works for nearly all my members.

Out of 600 members, I have a handful that don't have the 'comments box' in their profile. Any idea's ?

Could it depend on the browser they are using? A option these members have turned on in theri profile?

Any feedback appreciated.

Cheers,

Why not just install vS-Interactive Profiles (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=150028)?? It even goes as far as letting users choose to be emailed when they get a new comment or friend request. Not to mention a million other features.

This mod is obviously not being updated anymore. Hell, the last updates to this mod were ones that *I* created myself. But once I found out that vS-Iprof was free, there wasn't much hope in this hack anymore.

[Detomah]

Not everyone wants to use an all in one hack like that, I for one have a system i'm perfectly happy with in place that I've designed for my own purpose and this individual hack far better suits my own personal needs, so i'll continue to use this one, ta very much.

Although of course you are right, updates aint exactly forthcoming for this hack right now, but it does work for my setup and that's what matters for me.

Not that I disagree with what you're saying.... But what is stopping you or anybody else from only installing the parts of vS-IP that you want? Just don't perform the template edits you don't need, and disable the plugins for everything but the comments/whatever else you want to keep.

Two reasons for me mainly. vS-IP has official stopped in it's development now according to the hack release thread and further development that suit my needs for this particular add-on would be a lot easier for me to do myself, as it is a single add-on so less script for me to muck up.

Of course, if someone was to release a fully AJAX'd version of this individual hack, with all the bells and whistles already in place, such as PMing and the likes, i'd be very tempted to swap. But I can't be dealing with disabled plugins and the likes, as you have suggested, it gets too messy for me.

That's what makes vb.org and the community so great in my opinion though, we have choices thanks to those that do the hard work and do the initial code for these things, saving people like me weeks and months having to do it all the hard way. :)

[SEYTAN_NL]

I have installed it but I'd like to find any options for it.

[Brew]

I installed this with no problems in 3.6.8 :)

Good job!

A couple requests though.

I rarely ever go to my own public profile page. So there will be no way to know if someone has left a comment for me.

Some kind of notification should be added. A PM and/or email would be able to notify me that someone has left a comment.

It would also be cool to have the comments displayed in the private UserCP. You wouldn't need, or want, the input box but a listing of comments would be great. It would make it easier to see and delete comments when it's in the UserCP main screen.

Thanks!

[Konstantinos]

any chance u make it usergroup specific ?

[christian8a]

Seems that is almost perfect! :up:

For this hack there is not need for too many things though, the way it is now works great but because of the damn spams and users leaving bad material there is only few things to add IMO:

- Notification PM
- Approve or Unaprove comment (before posting msg) Excremelly Necessary for spammers.
- Delete comment warning page or popup
- And the Text editor or at least smilies

That I think will make it perfect, I downloaded and marked as installed but will wait for that before letting my users use it yet.

Cant wait for this to be completed Great hack man :up::up:

[Wheezy]

This is a great hack, and it works perfectly on my forum. However Im wondering if there are any additional settings available through the vBOptions menu as I cant see the hack listed there anywhere. It would be nice to be able to set 'allowed to comment' per usergroups or a 'banned from commenting' for rude members ... Something Im missing maybe?

EDIT: And what about a report button for rude comments or comments which break site rules?

[y2krazy]

Installed and working on 3.6.8!

Any timeframe on an update with some new features, eXtremeTim? Thanks! :)

[Free-D]

1. Users can delete comments about themselves YES/NO
2. Users can delete own comments YES/NO
3. Users can write comments about themselves YES/NO
