Mark Threads As 'Solved'

[Eric]

3.7 - 3.8 VERSION RELEASED, HERE (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=211020)

What is this!?
This modification will allow you & your members (based on usergroup permissions) to mark a thread as "Solved". It will add the prefix "[SOLVED]" to the thread title, and if set in the admincp - it will also close the thread.

This mod came about, around a year ago - with this thread (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1054496&postcount=1). But I never released it... until now. :)

Current Version
1.0.1

Features flagged for future version(s):

Thread starter can choose to solve a thread, and input the username of who solved it - that user would recieve rep. points. (admin-configurable amount of rep. points)
Given the above - include count of threads a user has solved in postbit & profile
Possibly figure out a way to automate everything on install - so there are no template edits.

And anything else that is suggested :)

Will this work on x.x.x ??
Unless otherwise stated, this will work on all 3.6 versions. I've not tested this on 3.5, but not much changed from 3.5 to 3.6 in this hack - so it should work on 3.5 as well.

Sounds cool. How do I install?

Extract the zip, you should have the following directories/files (in the "upload" folder):

/
|_ solved.php

/images/
/buttons/
|_ marksolved.gif

/includes/
/xml/
|_ bitfield_solvedthread.xml

Upload the files/folders keeping the same structure.
Import the product, product-solvedthread.xml
Make the following template edits:
SHOWTHREAD

Can this be set to only work in certain forum areas?

At the moment, no. But I plan to have it on a per-forum basis in a future version. :)

Cheers for your reply, I think I will hold off for the future version :D

Cheers.

[Kihon Kata]

At the moment, no. But I plan to have it on a per-forum basis in a future version. :)This is what I need. So I'll wait for that.

[TheBlackPoet]

i installed this.... and it works great... is there a way to unclose a thread for whatever reason??? other than that... i will love this when the time comes to use it..

Installed

Installed
You can reopen a thread the normal way - but it will still remain as '[SOLVED'].


I'm making a list of features I'll be adding to future versions, any and all suggestions are welcome.
:)

[JD45]

reserved

I'd like this option as well

[Mecho]

yea i need this too .. thanks for release but i'm waiting for ur next version too . also that would be great if u can make Installation easier :D

[Barteken]

is it possible that the author of the thread can mark the thread as solved (for a support forum etc.)
so not only mods . and if possible that the autor can select one of the users who replied (actually solved the problem) and then sign the thread as solved. The member(s) who solved the problem then get extra reputation

[ymy]

very good and great work

mark as INSTALL

.

[rjmjr69]

Awesome love it. Will wait for new features though. Thanks keep up the good work.

Yes, the thread starter can mark their thread as solved, as long as you set the correct usergroup permissions.

As for
and if possible that the autor can select one of the users who replied (actually solved the problem) and then sign the thread as solved. The member(s) who solved the problem then get extra reputation
That's a good idea. Yet another feature going on my list for another version ;)

Thanks all :) I'll try to have a new version out soon.

[MoMan]

Cheers for your reply, I think I will hold off for the future version :D

Cheers.

Yup. As soon as per-forum permissions are a feature, I'm installing this! This is exactly what I've been looking for!

[Eric]

I've added a list of current planned features in the first post, and the hack details. I'll continue to add to them as I come up with ideas, and as I get your suggestions :)

[4x4 Mecca]

All of the options on the 2nd post would make me love it even more. How about an installer so we don't have to make the template edits, and when/if we every wanted to remove it, we wouldn't have to re edit the templates?

Any idea when the next release will be out? I know this is brand new, so I'll wait. I'm holding off on installing it until then.

Oh, and a reason to mark something un solved would be on auto forums.. problems that appear solved, but then come right back a day or 2 later.

[4x4 Mecca]

I would also like the option to use html in the solved text. So I could so something like this
<font color='green'>Solved: </font>

[FreshFroot]

nice stuff.. but I need it for a specific forum id etc.. hopefully that will be in the next update. Great stuff :)

[Hornstar]

i like the list of future features. keep it up! nice work.

[Eric]

Thanks everyone :) Glad people like it.

And thanks for the suggestions 4x4 Mecca, I'm not too sure but allowing HTML, but we'll see.

As for a release date on the next version, can't give an exact date. I have many projects going (many of those which are higher up on my priority list) but it shouldn't be too long :)

[Monyet]

Thank you! really useful :)

[Eric]

No problem :) - Any other ideas/suggestions? I'm going to start on the next version toward the end of this week. ;)

[fox3nova]

Would you mind take a consideration about conbining Thread Prefixes (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=123033) that not change the title to [solved].
Instead by change the Thread Prefixes may more useful~

[Sofia]

Thanks a lot for your hack :)

[Greek Wizard]

I will also wait for it to be per forum also, as I would love to use this with the Support Forum hack found here:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=129737

[DeiseHost]

Excellent Mod.

I wouldn't want the thread prefix changed, because I use them to classify what the thread is about, for example, engine trouble, transmission trouble, and if a user searches for all transmission trouble threads, and some were changed to solved, they wouldn't find them in the search results.

[fox3nova]

OH~ I see, your comment is very useful to me to change my mind.
I think you are right, thank you:)

[Ophelia]

I installed this, it shows up in the thread tools, however, when I click on the "mark as solved" it goes to a blank page.

http://www.mysite.com/forum/solved.php?do=marksolved&t=10

The page is titled as New Page 1

I check and nothing has been remarked. Any idea what I did wrong?

Looks like you have everything, not sure what could be causing the blank page atm - you're the only one who has this problem afaik.

[4x4 Mecca]

I still check this thread daily for the updates. I hope you haven't forgotten about them :) I would love to be able to use the extra options. Thanks SecondV!

[Eric]

I've not forgotten, just a tad busy is all - there will be updates though.

[butty]

this is great. at first i thought that say my regged members i set to be able to solve threads that they would be able to solev any thread. i then realised they can only do this to there own thread. perfect!! :D

is there a way i can put a bigger button maybe in the thread starters first post for them to click when its solved? being in the thread tools menu is a bit out of the way and there not getting solved by my members only the mod crew

any help appreciated and congrats on a bob on plugin, cant wait for the next version with added rep points!! :)

[4x4 Mecca]

I've not forgotten, just a tad busy is all - there will be updates though.
Awesome, thanks for the updates.

[danrak]

Is there a way for the registered usergroup to limit the ability to mark threads solved to only threads they started, while still having mods and other staff members marking other threads solved?

[butty]

Is there a way for the registered usergroup to limit the ability to mark threads solved to only threads they started, while still having mods and other staff members marking other threads solved?

this is already how it works mate, i think it goes off if the user has permission to edit there own post or in the case of mods etc others too so it works like that already! :)

[tillcat5]

Looks like you have everything, not sure what could be causing the blank page atm - you're the only one who has this problem afaik.


having same probs.. i do all the steps when i go to usergroups to there is nothing there to click. Any ideas? and no solved on the dropdown box.. I really like this just want it to work lol

edit: i was able to get the usergroup part fixed.. still nothign in dropdown box.. help please

[RVM]

When I try to mark the thread as solved, it won't mark it solved, I get error 404 :confused:

[Scooterpig]

Good idea and looks good although will wait till better install hopefully in next version.

I'd also like to see the option of adding an image to a solved thread as I've seen a tick used once the thread is solved and makes it easier to read down the list of solved & unsolved threads..:)

[falbinali]

Love this idea about adding a tick..would be very useful as well!

[4x4 Mecca]

Still love this mod, even though it's not updated. :)

[Terrasoft]

Im waiting for the certain forums to be enabled feature. Marked *INSTALLED* to get updates.

[4x4 Mecca]

Hey SecondV. I know $10 isn't much, but I'll send it via paypal if you can do all the updates mentioned earlier :)

[Eric]

Still busy with many projects, I've got the updates slated for this weekend / mid of next week. (hopefully)

Btw, $ isn't needed - unless you just really like this hack and feel compelled to ;)

[4x4 Mecca]

Money sent. Thanks again.

[AScherff]

great ! installed..

One wish: only owner, initiator of thread can mark as solved...

[AScherff]

sorry doublepost

[Eric]

It's already setup that way. But like any thread - admins or moderators (with correct permissions) can do the same.

[Eric]

:o thanks! :) I'll try to get this update out as I said earlier ;)

[mrahul]

can this be turned on to certain forums alone ?

[Eric]

That's a feature planned for the next version... read the mod description in it's entirety ;)

definitely interested in this mod... will it be easy to revert when the new version comes out?? I think I should wait.. can you keep me posted? Thanks

[gassio]

sorry, double post...

[gassio]

When I try to mark the thread as solved, it won't mark it solved, I get error 404 :confused:

I have similar (or the same?) problem. I have no idea about coding etc. but it seems that hack wants to use "solved.php" script which is not present im my forums directory...
this is what shows in my browser address after trying to mark solved:
forumsdirectory/solved.php?do=marksolved&t=5

so i think it wants to use solved.php but it is not there...

I imported product and made necessary template changes.

The new version won't alter the thread title (in the database) to add "[SOLVED]" or whatever prefix you choose. It'll be done differently, so you might want to wait ;)

[gassio]

solved.php is included in the zip.
ok :) my bad, thx

Great Mod

[gregfindley]

Hi, installed this mod, all seems to be working fine, except for the fact its marking threads as closed when I have selected for it not to do so. It replaces the reply button within the thread with 'thread closed' button, even though when you click thread closed it takes you to the reply form!? Confusing!!!

Any ideas on how to sort this much appreciated!
My forum is www.ChessForums.org

(You can see a 'thread closed' solved thread in the feedback section)
Thanks

Hmm, interesting. I'll look into that and.. if you're an admin / mod that has powers in said forum - you can reply to closed threads ;) Regular users will see " Sorry! This thread is closed!"

[Eric]

A question before I start working on the new version, in the next few days.

On the "per forum" option, would you rather:

1.) Have an option in the mod settings to enter forumid's you WANT this ENABLED in
2.) Have an option in the mod settings to enter forumid's you WANT this DISABLED in
3.) Have an option in each forum's edit/creation page to enable / disable (if you have alot of forums, this could be time consuming)

[4x4 Mecca]

I'm thinking an option on which forums to enable it on. I have about 20-30 forums, but only need it on 5 or so.

[karel1985]

Hello SecondV

your mod look very good, and i will instal i sure if there is an option to mark it UNsolved to
I saw a similar mod on a another site and i really like it, unfortunaly the mod is not released and owner don't want to share.

here is the example:
http://www.helpmij.nl/forum/showthread.php?t=305750

at the botton u see:

Status van de vraag (status of the question)
Vraag is opgelost (question is solved)
Vraag is niet opgelost (question is unsolved)

By default when the user makes a new thread the topic is marked as unsolved. and only the topic starter can change it or mods or admin by clicking 'question is solved' (based on perimission prob.)

at the forum display it looks like this:

http://www.helpmij.nl/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=115

there is a sepparated collumn thats shows the status. In place of words here its an image.

So this looks very good and works nice :-)
i even want to pay it if u could get something like this.

That sounds good. I should have a new version out in a few hours.

[4x4 Mecca]

I'll be here! lol.

[Eric]

Updated to 1.0.1

[4x4 Mecca]

I'm back! Thanks. Downloading it now, then eating dinner.. lol, in that order.

[4x4 Mecca]

That sounds good. I should have a new version out in a few hours.

:)
The version I just installed has the exclude option, not include... is this how it will be for the final version? Is this the final version?

[Eric]

The version I just installed has the exclude option, not include... is this how it will be for the final version? Is this the final version?
I'll see about changing that over to 'include' some time, but after some thought - the 'exclude' seemed like the best option.

[4x4 Mecca]

No problem, I can add all the forums, I wasn't sure if you did it that way by mistake after the question or if you intended to do it. You can leave it how it is. :)

[Terrasoft]

Glad to see the update! Testing it out right now. >_0

[4x4 Mecca]

Are the updates with specifying who helped solve it still possible? And that user getting points?

No problem. I appreciate all you've done so far!

good job! I love it~

I'm trying to edit my postbit_legacy and put the solved button next to the other buttons in the bottoms of the posts. However, they don't work down there. Is there a reason you can think of, or should it be as simple as pasting the conditionals down there to display the buttons?

[mred]

I'm very interested in this modification for use in our big forum (www.rc-forum.de).
I am looking forward to the future planned features. The idea with the reputation system is great. I will install this mod at the weekend.

Thanks for that helpful modification.

I don't mess with postbit much, but this hack uses $thread and $threadinfo for everything. Postbit *should* be $post

How about changing the plugin options to select which forums to include SOLVED threads instead of excluded forums.

Both would be great. Someone have a lot of forums to exclude and others to include ;)

[mred]

I see a problem with solved threads - if a thread is unsolved and a moderator or administrator close that thread because of any important reason, the thread opener can reopen it with using the button 'unsolve thread'.

Could that problem be solved?

[mred]

Sorry, again ..

If you delete the prefix of a solved thread in case of moderation or what else ever you will get an inconsistency and the threadstarter will get an error if he tries to unsolve that thread.

any idea?

That's because the plugin uses the 'showthread_complete' hook. You could change it to 'showthread_start', should work then.

I use substr to remove the thread prefix when it's unsolved, that could be causing the error. I'll take a look into it.

I see a problem with solved threads - if a thread is unsolved and a moderator or administrator close that thread because of any important reason, the thread opener can reopen it with using the button 'unsolve thread'.

I'll fix that in the next release.

It's already that way, but Admin's or Moderators of said forum can solve/un-solve as well, just like they can do other actions with any other thread...

Duh! Thanks. When I tested it, I was logged in as admin, and as guest I can't even access those forums I use it in.

Very nice work!

Any chance on updating it to allow a thread solver?

[Mecho]

sounds great .. but i have a question . i'm using thread prefixes mod and i made 2 prefix for one section , named resolved and request ! so how it works : mods should edit user's post and change the prefix from request to resolved . so i'm wondering this way that i'm using is better for use less loading from server and .. or this mod that u publish ??

Thanks

[paulvon]

The concept is great.

I followed the instructions and tried an install in 3.6.8.

I do see the "Solved Threads" in the vBulletin Options and have configured it. With no forums excluded.

The problem is
There is no sign of the mod in the Post / Thread Permissions panel.

There is no sign of the ability to mark as solved on the threads.

Do you have any ideas?

Thank you

[flickerbox]

We have not been able to get this to work. 3.6.7P1
Same problem as paulvon-
No sign of the ability to mark as solved on threads, and no sign in Posts/Thread permisisons panel.

Any update on this?

[Wheezy]

Im having the same problem... its not showing up under "thread tools" OR under usuergroup options in the AdminCP.

[Eric]

Are you all, that's having these problems, sure you uploaded EVERY file? Get any errors on product intsall?

[Wheezy]

Ive uploaded the entire "upload" folder and its contents to my root directory, made all the template edits correctly (no errors on install though), and its still not showing up.

All I ask is you give proper credit.

[dethfire]

can the solved prefix be added only to forum view, I don't want to mess with thread title because of google. also can people who can mark a thread be changed via usergroup?

[soulweaver]

Is there any way to have more than one option to choose such as having solved and tested. I run a gaming sites and I want solved for the staff apps, requests, and site feedbacks, and tested for codes? If you can help i would appreciate it.

[dethfire]

if I set a usergroup to have mark as solved permission and set a user to have that usergroup as secondary, it will not show for that user, any ideas?

[yoyoyoyo]

I am having a problem - I did the edits indicated, and am getting this error in thread tools:

http://img503.imageshack.us/img503/7810/errorvl4.jpg

the option to mark the thread as solved is showing up twice - any suggestions?

[soulweaver]

I believe this came with an installer i didn't do some of the templete edits caz they were all ready there but i'm not the creator so thats my suggestion yoyoyoyo

I believe this came with an installer i didn't do some of the templete edits caz they were all ready there but i'm not the creator so thats my suggestion yoyoyoyoI undid the template edits, but then the option to "mark as solved" disappeared from the thread tools. Oh well... nice idea - guess I will have to mark as solved manually.

[donnacha]

Great idea but not working with 3.6.8 - all files uploaded and edits to SHOWTHREAD made correctly, double-checked everything.

[bigcurt]

I got this working by just messing around with the template edits..there are quite a few things wrong. If you guys like I can post my code..as long as the coder doesn't get mad.

[mauro1947]

Two bugs:

When a post have an attachment, is not merged with next one.
When a post have a title with special characters like "/" is bad renamed.

Thanks

[ScottRowan]

Hi,

I really like this mod and could use it, but can you change "solved" to like "complete", "in progress" and other different names?

Its just I wanna give it to my GFX Request team, so when people request gfx then they can tag the topics like:

Killswitch Engage Sig Anyone?

then they can change it to:

[TAKEN]Killswitch Engage Sig Anyone?

then

[COMPLETE]Killswitch Engage Sig Anyone?

or

[DENIED]Killswitch Engage Sig Anyone?

etc etc...

How could I add more than one Solved as and change the name on it?

[wluther]

I have used this mod, without any problems, since it was released. I am in a similar situation as Mr. Rowan above, and I am also wondering how to make several different names/tags available for different forums.

Also, I would like to know, if possible, how to add the "Marked Solved" option to the "Forum Tools" and/or "Moderation" drop down box(es) to make it possible to mark multiple threads "Solved/TAKEN/COMPLETE/DENIED/etc..." all at once. Similar to the way you can select all the threads, and then open or close them.

If either of the above two requests have already been created, then could you please tell me where, and if not, then could you please tell me how to do it.

Thank you.

It works fine in 3.6.8

Here is a TMS (template modification system) XML file, for those that have TMS installed. Just upload the XML via TMS and it takes care of the necessary template edits for you automatically.

[anwar.abdullakh]

this one has worked great for me...
While i was browsing I encountered the following modification: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=129737

Is it possible to separate "open issues" from "closed issues" as shown in the ss. Is it possible??

[ludachris]

Anyway to add the ability to give certain usergroups (non mods) the ability to mark someone else's thread as solved? This is due to the fact that many people won't come back to mark their own thread as solved all the time. I'd like to give the site leaders the ability to do it for them.

Also, how about being able to search only [solved] threads? That would extremely useful.

[ludachris]

So I just installed this today and found that the thread title get's messed up if there are quotes in it. I'm using vbseo so I'm not sure if it's affecting it.

[buurman]

Using this for a few weeks now, and like it!
Is it possible to instead of changing the title, to add a image at top of the post?
And have two choices, solved and unsolveable?
I cant seem to find out..

Just what I was looking for. I do hope someone can carry this mod going for a very long time. :)

Great hack and works, I just use the basic code, which is to have mark threads solved.

I`ll be working on this hack for all future versions and will keep it going for a very long time.

Jase2 are you picking up this add-on?

I wish there is somebody willing to do so. It is great add-on, but I am afraid to install abonded add-on because it will not work in future version and then what...

To do list for this add-on is even better, but again it is worthless without future developements and upgrades ...

[Thomas P]

@Jase: Great news - can you have a look into the issue regarding the special characters like quotes or the dash?

[Jase2]

I will have to think about it. I`m only currently working on making it simply mark threads solved. However, if there are enough people who want future requests, then I`ll look into it.

I have a computer site @ www.techsupportteam.org that`s why I`ll be keeping this add on going.

Regards Jason :)

[buurman]

Jase, it would be great if you could keep this module going!

Is it possible to do a request?

Right now the title is changed by marking it "solved"

What do I need to change to not change the title, but add a image ([IMG]) to the top of the first post?

This way, if the post is solved, there will be a image in the first post stating "SOLVED" or any other custom image.

I cant seem to find out what the code is for adding tekst to the thread instead of the title.

[Black Tiger]

I have this mod tagged, seems very fine, but I have a few questions first.
1.) Will this also run in 3.7? Anybody tried that already?
2.) Is it possible to change fewer templates some way so the mod only works on 1 or a few forums which you select? Because I don't want it to be a forum-wide option. I know of the exclude option.
3.) I second the request Buurman just made.:)

Thanks for the good Hack. could anyone tell me how I can add color to this option. like red

[Black Tiger]

@Jase2: Thanks but that's in the mod graveyard, had that tagged too.
However too much template edits, seems to me this must be also possible to be done with the plugin system.
Otherwise I have to use the TMS system, but I'll wait for a better version.:)

[Eric]

I've already PM'ed Marco, and I no longer work on this MOD, but figured I'd need to post something publicly.

I don't know who is complaining, but I AM the original author of this modification. All of my MODs are original work by me.

[harlita]

alright i just have one question.

I am kinda new with the whole installing mod situation so please be easy on me..but for the instructions of installing you say to

1. extract the zip(did that)
2..Upload the folders keeping the same structure(where do I upload the folder?)
3.Import the xml. (ok ive imported xmls before for themes/skins but is there a different place to upload xmls for mods)

everything else i pretty much understand except two and three

[Black Tiger]

2.) FTP it to your forums on your web.
You don't upload the directory called "upload" if present, but the content in that directory. The directory structure of vBulletin is kept, so upload the files in the directory's named.
So files in the admincp folder should be uploaded to your forums admincp folder etc.

3.) It could be that xml files for mods have to be uploaded, but then they are in the folder structure of the files to be uploaded.
Normaliter if it's said the xml file should be imported, it must be done the normal way via the plugins and products part in the Admincp.

[harlita]

=)

Thank you for your kind reply and I apologize for the confusion. There is actually two of us working on installing the hacks so we're both having to use my login since, to my understanding- vbulletin.org is one account login per vbulletin license- even though we're building out the same site.

A plugin version would be cool, but in my opinion it's a pretty easy install - minus the having to edit each individual template. I don't know any way around that other than to make all themes children of a parent theme XD and that would just lead to bad things.

Also may want to call out (though most the time it's assumed) that the button image is called to in the stylever, not a direct image source - so if the theme you are using has it's buttons in it's own image folder, you'll need to copy the provided button image (and thank you for providing one) to those directories as well. etc etc\

But no worries. So I've gone ahead and installed the hack on both my vbull forums and can confirm it works fine with 3.6.8

[Snatch]

Is there a version for 3.7?

[casperl]

Mark threads ‘solved’ Version: 1.0.3

Nice plug-in actually. But I would like to make a suggestion there. When a user of a forum clicks the Mark Thread Solved link, the prefix [SOLVED] is added to the thread title. But the user added icon is not changed.

How about changing the icon to a default one a check mark is the best icon which I can suggest. Why I say this is rather looking the text, people can easily notify images, colors etc.

And also it won’t be an issue, because after certain time people deal with the forum, they get familiar not to use the check mark icon. Because they know that if he/she used it the possibility to get answered there question is very low.

So, what you think of it.

[Eric]

I'm thinking of restarting my development of this modification - I'll go over the thread in the next few days about fixes/features/etc. Anyone have any ideas/thoughts toward a new version? Post or PM me.

FR:
- make it product

Edit Temps SHOWTHREAD dont work, it error:
The following error occurred when attempting to evaluate this template:

The conditional on line 404 appears to be missing its end tag (</if>). The template will not function properly unless this is fixed.

You want to "upgrade" to 3.6.8 when 3.6.10 is the latest final version??? And you don't have a clue and you're the admin? It's really easy.
I did not know that the admin of the helpmij forums was also here. If you want, send me a pm then I'll mail you my email adres, I'm dutch too, running several boards on vbulletin.

Tanks for your time :)

Oh, by the way, I'm using Vb 3.6.9

[eroan]

How can I do to make this script work in postbit_legacy ?

I included the following code to add a button directly in the first post. The only problem is that the script is loaded in "showthread_complete" so the data doesn't load in this template :

<if condition="!$GLOBALS['FIRSTPOSTID'] and THIS_SCRIPT == 'showthread'">
<if condition="$show['solvedthread']">
<a href="solved.php?$session[sessionurl]do=marksolved&amp;t=$threadinfo[threadid]"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/marksolved.gif" alt="$vbphrase[solvedthread_marksolved]" vspace="1" /></a>
</if>
<if condition="$show['solvedthread_unsolve']">
<a href="solved.php?$session[sessionurl]do=markunsolved&amp;t=$threadinfo[threadid]"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/marksolved2.gif" alt="$vbphrase[solvedthread_markunsolved]" vspace="1" /></a>
</if>
</if>

$show['solvedthread'] and $show['solvedthread_unsolve'] are empty.

An idea?

[eroan]

Nobody knows?

Please help me to make it work in postbit_legacy !

[eroan]

Please I really need to make it work in postbit_legacy !

[Eric]

I will not be able to continue working on this modification. I no longer have a vB license, therefore no longer have the vB code, nor am I able to do much at all here.

So that's it???

[Jase2]

SecondV, do I have permission to release for 3.7?

-- Jason

[intell_iut]

[intell_iut]

jase help me tp install this hack and it work great

is there any chance to ad this tools to moderation tools and mark many thread as solved in one step

[jesus likes pie]

uhh...

it's working just fine on 3.7...

[jesus likes pie]

Ah nevermind, seems usergroup permissions are not being taken into effect.

[Jase2]

Jesus, that's why you need to use the product I posted here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1557241&postcount=190

[Eric]

SecondV, do I have permission to release for 3.7?

-- Jason
Yes.

[RAH104]

Great mod - thanks!

Is it possible to allow a usergroup to mark threads as solved even if the user didn't originally create the thread? Also is this possible without it being the moderators usergroup?

[MHC]

Hey,

For anyone wanting this to work with 3.7, then just simply uninstall your current product and install the new one that I have attached. Everything else is the same, so just follow the orginal readme. This is working fine for me on 3.7. 1. PL2 :)

If SecondV cannot continue development of this, then I will be gladly take over and port it over to the 3.7 section. :)

-- Jason

We are using vB 3.7.2 PL2 as well. Will install shortly. Hopefully it will be pretty straightforward. Thanks for updating this add-on with a working version for 3.7.2!

[MHC]

Great mod - thanks!

I installed this hack and I agree, it would be cool if there was an option for allowing other members than the thread starter to be able to use it.

[Jase2]

Yes.

Thanks -- I'll release it soon.

[kafi]

For the future you plan to include an option to choose who solved the thread, please if possible allow also mark post that is considered as best solution...

[Johnny Utah]

Any updates with this mod on 3.7.x?

Thanks!

[AshMagic]

I'm having trouble with number 6.

Edit Post / Thread Permissions > Can Mark Threads as Solved for each usergroup.

Where can I find this option? THANKS!

[satam2k]

Thank you

[Technoviking]

When I try to edit Post / Thread Permissions the option for Solved Threads isn't there.

What did I do wrong??

[webForum-dev]

Is there going to be a release for 3.7 ?

Ummm guys it will work on v 3.7 IF you use the xml file Jason posted here...

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1557241&postcount=190

I just installed it on a 3.7 test board and all is fine :)

This will also solve this problem

Does this work on 3.8?

[proxx]

no reply?

[Coume]

I am also interested to find out if this can be installed on 3.8.

Thanks
Ludo

[Proffie]

This does work with vB 3.8, although marking threads as Unsolved may not work.

It's a shame that it is no longer updated, as the option for a thread started to solve a thread would have been great. :rolleyes:

[Shamil.]

How do I change the color of the [SOLVED] bit?

[Saviour]

Installed and working on vB 3.8.1.

[CompiledMonkey]

It's not working for me on 3.8, using the product file from here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1557241&postcount=190

The option of marking a thread as solved isn't showing up for me and the permission doesn't show up in the manager either.

[Eric]

As a response to some of the posts here - sorry guys, I do not support this modification, and haven't in over a year. I gave permission to Jase2 last July to port this to 3.7+ and continue development. To my knowledge, though, he's not yet released anything.

[jmurrayhead]

I think he did, but it was sent to the GraveYard because he was accused of not having permission from the original author...unless that's another mod I'm thinking of...

[Eric]

Hmmn, oh yeah. That was a misunderstanding. Someone actually tried to say that *I* wasn't the original author of the modification :confused:

--------------------------------------
I have now revoked permission for Jase2 to continue the development of this modification. I WILL BE RELEASING A NEW VERSION FOR 3.8.x SOON.

[Saviour]

As I said before...

I have this installed and working on 3.8.1 PL1.

It seems to be working fine. Why others are having an issue...I have no clue. However, I do look forward to a 3.8.x release.

[Eric]

The one I'm releasing has been recoded ;) It will use the Thread Prefix system as well.

[Saviour]

Sweet...

Will the mod include upgrade instructions, as well?

[Eric]

I'm looking at how current users can upgrade. Once I have that worked out, then I'll write up instructions for it.

Wow, this is good news. :) But, I'm kind of torn now, haha. I spent quite a while looking for this mod and would like to install it. But now I'm tempted to wait for the new version for 3.8. Do you have any kind of rough ETA for when it will be ready? Thanks either way :D

[Sym0n]

Ooh awesome news I need something just like this, especially the auto closure. SecondV any chance of having the 3.8.* version change the Post Icon (definable from ACP) at the same time as changing the prefix and closing? If so that would be every box ticked for me. :D

Having the the choice of which forums to include the solved ability in, instead of exclude, would be a bonus.

I'll mark this as installed now so I know when the 3.8.* version is out.

Thanks :)

Sy

[Eric]

Sorry for the late reply, there is no ETA atm on the release, but it is coming ;)

Sym0n, with the core Thread Prefix system in vB, it allows you to select which forums this should be used in (in the admincp). So, that means the "excluded" forums with this mod will be removed for the 3.8.x version because I'm making it use the THread Prefix system ;)

The icon idea, I'll see what I can do. :)

[Sym0n]

Ok cool, well no rush I'm looking forward to it's release though and the post icons would be awesome.

Thanks

Sy

[Eric]

For the icon idea, I do have one question. Do you mean the "Post Icons", ie, the one I assigned to this post ( https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2010/11/2.gif )?

[soundium]

Do you wanna try to make the same system as Lithium Kudos System?

[Eric]

Lithium Kudos System? What's that?

EDIT: thanks wiki

Kudos are a way for a user to give positive feedback on a forum post. Subject to moderator controls, anyone in the community can kudo a message, with the kudos from super-users and moderators often carrying more weight. Kudos counts on forums quickly highlight the most popular content and time-scoped kudos leaderboards elevate that content to the community's front page.

Umm, no. My mod is simply to mark a thread as being resolved.
