Social Group Discussions Like Postbit Legacy

The following template modification makes Social Group discussion look similar to Postbit Legacy.

To install open your "socialgroups_message" template and overwrite the entire template with the markup below:

<if condition="$message['goto']">
<a name="newmessage"></a>
</if>

<div id="gmessage_qe$message[gmid]" style="margin-bottom:5px">
<table id="gmessage$message[gmid]" class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr>
<td class="thead" style="font-weight:normal; border: $stylevar[cellspacing]px solid $stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]; border-$stylevar[right]: 0px">$message[date] $message[time]</td>
<td class="thead" style="font-weight:normal; border: $stylevar[cellspacing]px solid $stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]; border-$stylevar[left]: 0px" align="$stylevar[right]">
<if condition="$show['inlinemod']"><div class="inlinemod_control"><input type="checkbox" class="inlinemod_checkbox" name="gmessagelist[$message[gmid]]" id="gmessagelist_$message[gmid]" value="$message[checkbox_value]" title="$vbphrase[select_this_item_for_inline_moderation]" /></div></if>
</td>
</tr>
<tr valign="top">

Something you need to know

This template change will [U]not display the full postbit that includes post count, location etc, it will only show avatar and username. The reason for this is simple, the data simply isn't available without a plugin modification.

Other Information
If you have installed my Quote Functionality in Social Discussions (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=204052) modification you can add a quote button by following the steps below:

In the template markup above find:

<if condition="$message['edit']">
Immediately before this paste in the following

<a href="group.php?$session[sessionurl]do=message&discussionid=$message[discussionid]&gmq=$message[gmid]"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/quote.gif" alt="$vbphrase[quote]" border="0" /></a>

Unfortunately I do not have the time to sort out a template for the new postbit, so feel free to create one if you want. If you do, drop me a PM and I will link to it from this mod.

This is one of the mods in my "Why isn't this stuff in the default social group system" series, for the others see these threads:

Only thing I can find wrong is that selecting a post for inline moderation does not highlight it.

how can we make it display the fullsize avatar and not the thumbnail ?

Find this bit:

<img src="$message[avatarurl]" class="alt2 avatar"<if condition="$message['avatarwidth']"> width="$message[avatarwidth]"</if><if condition="$message['avatarheight']"> height="$message[avatarheight]"</if> border="0" alt="$message[username]" />

and replace with

<img src="$message[avatarurl]" class="alt2 avatar" border="0" alt="$message[username]" />

I haven't tested this, but it should work

Yep, it works fine. :up:

I made a couple different changes, moved the IP and report to next to the quote/edit buttons. Just posting it here in case anyone else wants to do it.

I was hoping someone would make a change like this. =) Now if only there was a way to allow signatures to be posted as well, together with that other information.... You say another addon would be needed for that? Any plans? ;)

This is great!!! Tank you, MrEyes and Schnee for sharing the additional edits. :)

I like this, and am hoping someone does the signature add-on as well! :)

Great add-on! It would be awesome if their would be an option to show the regular postbit info and the signatures aswell.. Any chance this will happen soon?

this doesn't works correctly onto the 3.8.2 version ... :)

After installing this, I can no longer see what social group a post/thread is in, when viewing
moderation.php?do=viewgms&type=moderated or
moderation.php?do=viewdiscussions&type=moderated

Brilliant extra, thank you for the share.

I'd like the avatar to be actual size, this doesn't work in 3.8.4:

Find this bit:

<img src="$message[avatarurl]" class="alt2 avatar"<if condition="$message['avatarwidth']"> width="$message[avatarwidth]"</if><if condition="$message['avatarheight']"> height="$message[avatarheight]"</if> border="0" alt="$message[username]" />

and replace with

<img src="$message[avatarurl]" class="alt2 avatar" border="0" alt="$message[username]" />

I haven't tested this, but it should work

Do you know how we do that in 3.8.4?
