Mark Threads As 'Solved'

[Eric]

My time is very limited these days, with my full time job. I have marked this mod as re-usable code, if any other coder wishes to continue work on it. I may still try to support this mod as time permits.

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.

Current Version
1.1.2 - You can find the 3.6.x version, here (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=149214).

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 3.7 - 3.8 versions. This will not work on 4.0. If you are looking for a vB4 version, you can find it here (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=234935).

Sounds cool. How do I install?

Extract the zip, you should have the following directories/files:


/
|_ install.html
|_ product-solvedthread.xml

/upload/
|_ solved.php

/upload/images/
/buttons/
|_ marksolved.gif

/upload/includes/
/xml/
|_ bitfield_solvedthread.xml


Upload: (in the below instructions 'yourforum' would be where you have vBulletin installed)

/upload/solved.php to /yourforum/solved.php

/upload/images/buttons/marksolved.gif to /yourforum/images/buttons/marksolved.gif (upload to each style folder, if you have more than one style)

/upload/includes/xml/bitfield_solvedthread.xml to /yourforum/includes/xml/bitfield_solvedthread.xml


Import the product, product-solvedthreads.xml by going to: AdminCP -> Plugins & Products -> Manage Products -> [Add/Import Product]

Make the following template edits to all of your installed styles:

Hi there,

Instead of 'excluding' forums, since using the Thread Prefix system, you can choose which forums this will be shown in.

After installing, go to: Thread Prefixes >> Thread Prefix Manager

You'll see: Solved Thread on the left, [Add Prefix] [Edit] [Delete] on the right. Choose Edit.

Then you'll see: Use Prefix Set in These Forums, select the forums you want this used in. (Hold the CTRL button to select more than one)

[HabboLan]

Could it be used as a sold option instead of solved in forums ? Just change the solved word to sold ?
I have a section for members to sell items , what you think ?

[SpeedyHire]

HabboLan,

Yes it can m8.
been using the old version for some time now.
nice to see the updated version.

Yes, really, all you'd need to do is change the thread prefix, and a phrase or two.

[Markos]

i was just away to ask that if it can be changed to Sold too :) i will install this and give it ago :)

[Markos]

nice this worked a treat one prob i see is it doesn't change all the words that say Solved to Sold or Unsold

[DjEddie]

Thanks for this.. installed....

One slight problem, altho all permissions and forums have been selected as per instructions .. when I go to solve a thread... i get following message.

you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

1. Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
2. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

which as root admin obviously isnt true.

Do u know what is causing this?

[Eric]

The only way this can happen is if your permissions aren't set up right. It has four permission checks:

1.) Are you even allowed to view the forum?
2.) Are you allowed to see threads?
3.) Are you allowed to mark threads (un)solved?
4.) Is this your thread, or, are you a moderator who can moderate this forum?

I'm guessing for you, it's #3.

Please double check the usergroup permissions:

Usergroups >> Usergroup Manager >> Administrators (Edit) >> Go >> Can Mark Threads as Solved and Unsolved

They were all set correctly, I have double checked and re-imported it too and double checked again, and still get same message.

Ive tried in different topics as well as different forums, where this mod is enabled for (which is all of them)

[Eric]

Ok, hmmn..

Take two screenshots for me. One of the permissions page where you're editing permissions of the usergroup, and another on the prefix where you're choosing the forums.

so secondV correct me if I'm wrong not just anyone with permission can mark it Ase solved in my case Sold it has to be the thread starter or a moderator or admin

[Eric]

Correct. An admin, or moderator of the forum can. Or, the thread starter can if their usergroup has the permission to do so.

[Markos]

ooo nice one that's cool didn't want anyone just to do it

and one other thing u think u can make one for *sold* i dont want to realy mess with the code to change every thing to sold incase i mess it up

[Etab]

Hey SV, great mod! Thanks! :)

[jgruberman]

Hey ummmmm..... whats causing THIS?

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2009/04/97.jpg

edit: This was caused by the image in the wrong directory. The first sentence on the left side is actually the "Alt" tag of the image.

[Eric]

Did you upload the images/ folder?

If using a custom style, copy the images/buttons/marksolved.gif to your other style as well.

[AshMagic]

For some reason, the Mark Thread as solved option is not showing for me?

Im running VB 3.8.2.

I had the old version of this mod installed and followed the upgrade instructions. I even double checked that the SHOWTHREAD changes were correct. All forum permissions are set and the plugin is enabled.

The old version used to work fine before this upgrade.

Why is this option no longer showing?

There is no thread prefix set in the Thread Prefix manager. Should there be?

Thanks

[AshMagic]

This plugin will not allow me to unistall it!!

Please look at the attached screen shot.

Its now causing me all sorts of database errors. When I set the permissions for admin, it falls over with a database error upon saving. This is not good at all!!!

[DjEddie]

Ok, hmmn..

Take two screenshots for me. One of the permissions page where you're editing permissions of the usergroup, and another on the prefix where you're choosing the forums.

Okay attached the screenshots, the rights ones I hope.. :)

[Eric]

Sorry it hasn't worked for you. I was only able to reproduce this error by removing the Thread Prefix manually then trying the uninstall of the plugin.

So it seems to indicate on upgrade that the prefix isn't being created.

I do apologize for that, but please, for the moment - just choose "Disable" and the mod won't run at all and should get rid of your database problems until I can post information on a fix.

Yeh, I have that box checked to yes .. and still doesn't work ..

DjEddie, sending you a PM.

[DjEddie]

[bigcurt]

Does this not work at all, or did it just not work for him? Explain please :). Thanks.

[g0dfather1984]

I can not get it to work either.

[Eric]

It works. I have installed it on 3 different forums, and it works fine.

Doesn't seem to work for DjEddie though. I'm thinking possibly it's due to another mod he has installed.

[Eric]

Made some changes to the product XML - version number not changing.

Those having problems, please uninstall the mod completely - and try reinstalling. If the product won't uninstall:

Go to Manage Products -> Mark Threads As 'Solved' -> Edit -> Go

Edit the uninstall code, find and remove:


// ################################################## #####################
$solvedthread_prefixsetdm =& datamanager_init('PrefixSet', $vbulletin, ERRTYPE_CP);

$solvedthread_prefixset = $db->query_first("
SELECT *
FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "prefixset
WHERE prefixsetid = 'solvedthread'
");

$solvedthread_prefixsetdm->set_existing($solvedthread_prefixset);
$solvedthread_prefixsetdm->delete();
unset($solvedthread_prefixsetdm);

if (!function_exists('build_prefix_datastore'))
{
require_once(DIR . '/includes/adminfunctions_prefix.php');
}

build_prefix_datastore();

// ################################################## #####################
$solvedthread_prefixdm =& datamanager_init('Prefix', $vbulletin, ERRTYPE_CP);

$solvedthread_prefix = $db->query_first("
SELECT *

WHERE prefixid = 'solvedthread_solved'
");

$solvedthread_prefixdm->set_existing($solvedthread_prefix);
$solvedthread_prefixdm->delete();
unset($solvedthread_prefixdm);

build_prefix_datastore();

Save.

Then try to uninstall again.

[mystikmedia]

This may be outside of the scope of your mod, but would it be possible to add an image before or after the title of a thread instead of the "Solved" prefix?

[Markos]

it works fine for me is it necessary to update it secondv cos im having no probs with the other one

[Nathan Brown]

How exactly is this meant to work? I uploaded the files and the XML, made the template edits. I have the [SOLVED] prefixes, how am I meant to mark as solved? I see no tick box or otherwise. Am I meant to edit the thread and add the prefix manually?

[AshMagic]

Thanks that helped me to uninstall the product. Hopefully when I re upload the XML it will work.

You need to click 'Thread Tools' to be able to mark the thread as solved. If the template edits were done correctly then there will be a icon saying 'Mark as solved'

[Eric]

If it works for you, that's fine, no need to :)

It uses the "Thread Tools" menu. You should see an option to solve/unsolve a thread. Be sure to edit usergroup permissions, thread prefix permissions, etc.

Thanks that helped me to uninstall the product. Hopefully when I re upload the XML it will work.
:up: here's to hoping it does :)

[AshMagic]

I have found a bug.

I had to uninstall the pluging using the method you gave above.

I've re installed the product and when I go to set the permissions for each user group, the option is not visable. The yes/no boxes are still there.

Check the screenshot ive attached.

[AshMagic]

:( this is still not working for me!!!

I have uninstalled, then reinstalled. Made sure all the showthread template edits are correct. Uploaded all of the files...

I had the old version installed and it worked perfectly. This new version doesnt work at all for me now.

The options to mark the thread as solved doesnt appear in the Thread Tools.

[Nathan Brown]

Ah yeah I see it now. Thanks :) Marked as Installed
EDIT: Am I right in thinking that if I give registered users permissions to Mark threads as Solved, they can only mark their own threads as solved? Or can they mark any thread as solved?
Thanks in advance.

I used to use the old version of this and im sure its still the same. A registered user can only mark their own threads as solved. No one elses. Admins can mark any threads as solved though..

Any moderators that moderate that forum can mark them solved too, am I right?

[AshMagic]

Thanks for this.

Yes. But you do need to set their permissions first.

[Frondy]

Well, for me it almost works. When I mark thread as solved, it become solved, I can filter display to see solved threads, but title reminds the same, witout the visible [SOLVED] in front.
Any help?

This is how the new version works. It uses a thread prefix rather than changing the URL.

[bigcurt]

No idea why, but it isn't working for me at all. I can find it in vBulletin options to turn it on...it is on. However, in usergroups options it is simply not there. However, there is a blank yes/no radio option but no text to the left to say what it is..I turned it on to see if that would work and it still didn't help..nothing shows up at all.

I completely uninstalled the first version of mod I had before installing this one as well.

[Eric]

Honestly guys, I don't see how you are having these problems. For me it works fine, along with others I've had test it. The blank option to me makes no sense, I didn't change that in the xml, however - both of you try this for me:

Go to yourforum.com/admincp/index.php?do=buildbitfields

Check the usergroup permissions, re-save them.

And see if that works for you.

I mean really, not THAT much has changed since the old version.

Still nothing, still completely blank :(. I am not sure either. I just un-installed the old mod, I have a new template so I didn't have to delete anything from it and I just uploaded new files and overwrote old ones and installed the new product..then I added all the template mods and nothing is coming up.

[bigcurt]

Any ideas bud?

[Saviour]

What if you already have 1.1.0 installed from 4/12/09? It's currently working, bu can I upgrade, or do I have to uninstall and re-install?

I find it best to have the latest version...and just want to stay on top of things, ya know?

The latest version from 4/14/09 states there were some XML changes to the XML file...what XML file? The product XML? That being the case, can't we just upload and overwrite? I mean...I could use a little more specifics, please...

Thank you...

[Losko]

Very nice, work fine! ;)

Seems like I am doing something wrong. I can't find the option of giving user id of which user solved the issue. I don't get the option anywhere.
I also can't find the solution in replies here.

The solved button is not visible in drop down menue of Mark Thread as Solved option in Thread Tools Drop Down Menue.

[kpmedia]

I would like to have [SOLVED] as a suffix. My URL would be messed up if the thread name changes to solved, as Zoints uses the thread name to make the URL. If it were a suffix, it is not likely to change the URL, since most titles are longer than then 3-word max I've set.

I looked at the code, and I'm no dummy, but I'm not seeing exactly what could be altered. :(

The thread title itself is not modified, it just has a prefix added to it when it's displayed. I don't believe it would effect your URL in anyway, using Zoints.

[blackwolf062]

i cant see the settings in the usergroup / Thread Permissions either and the button solve thread in the thread tools is not there aswell ive redone it several times.

Any idea when is the new version comming with the new option of user solved option??

Hi SecondV,

I still have the old version of Jase2: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=169446

Are there differences with this version? Can i switch to this one without losing the prefixes?

Thread Permissions either and the button solve thread in the thread tools is not there aswell ive redone it several times.

have u put the image in the correct folders i had to put it in every style i had mine didn't show till i did this

Use an image to display the prefix, the title won't be changed.

[JohnBee]

Using the MOD, been a fan of resolved hacks for years now btw.
Love the simplification this MOD brings to the entire ordeal.

Couple of suggestions(if I may be so bold):


Would it be possible to toggle the option at the showthread level.This way we could tag or select multiple threads at once.

Also, would it be possible to get the MOD to kick us out following the MARK AS SOLVED... function?This way, the process could be better streamlined, as we looked in... determined the status, tag and move to the next one...


Great MOD!
thx

[hurricane_sh]

I would say the planned features are more useful. It makes no sense to batch mark threads as solved.

# 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

Hi..

If this Mod is using a Prefix, what happens with my Existing Prefixes?

[Eric]

A new version is in the works, but can not give an ETA at this time.

Hi..

If this Mod is using a Prefix, what happens with my Existing Prefixes?
Your existing prefixes will be fine. This prefix will only be applied to a thread if you choose to mark it as solved.

[The Realist]

Installed but received errors.

Tried to remove the plugin but getting more errors so all I can do is disable it for now.

Hi,

thanks for this nice mod, i'm just a short step away from implementing this into my board.

But is there an option to activate this URL here? https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/misc.php?do=checkversion&t=211020 If a add this in the plugin properties in the admincp, it tells me after i click on version check -> Error while reading version.

If you can watch the source of the output, you see that there is an attribut in the xml tag. maybe this should not be there?

THanks

Cheers

Hello. I think it is very useful hack.

But i have a problem: after choosing the forum in prefix menu, i've just the blank page instead of thread pages.

When i suitch off the product, i can see the posts in a threads. Suitch product on - showthread.php shows me a blank page.

I'm trying the product on a clear bord without any hack.

Any suggestion?

[1F42]

Could you not just add instructions on how to change "solved" to anything else then it will fit all, or can we just edit the phrase?

Edit
Yup a straight forward text edit in phrases worked so I clicked installed :)

Erm what's the add prefixes option? no instructions but maybe to do the above lol?

Could you tell me where I could specify a color in the script for the prefix please. off to have a look but nominated it anyways as it was just what I was looking for. Here somewhere; $action = $vbphrase['solvedthread_marked']; ?


Never mind I just used "<span style="color:#FF0000">yourtext</span>" in the following phrases well sorted now. Much better in red for me..

These are the post phrases you need to alter for either the colour or prefix text

prefix_solvedthread_solved_title_plain
prefix_solvedthread_solved_title_rich

Of course there are more to edit like redirect and the thread tools drop down etc for completion but just search the phrases for solved and common sense will tell you what to edit.

[migowebdesign]

Hi,

this mod creates a new topic-prefix in the admincp, you can edit this there and fill in your html input. much easier than search the phrases...

Are you using the Usergroup Manager? Try running: www.yourdomain.com/forum/admincp/index.php?do=buildbitfields

Then go back to the Usergroup Manager

vB.org handles the output of that, not me - I suppose it'd be easy to add the url in the next update.

Honestly I don't understand all the problems this mod seems to have, it was built on top of the previous version which didn't have these problems.

i did everything step by step and i wont get any error but on group permission no any options to set "can mark as solved" and on showthread too no any option to select thread as solved

[Markos]

u sure u put the images in the right place on your server i got the same thing wen i forgot to put the images on my server lol

[llaffer]

Same as blue7. Installed everything, put that bloody image in every style i have installed, still no options in group permissions. I still see it in vBulletin general options and also see the SOLVED prefix it made for me, but nothing on user permissions or any buttons on the actual forum.

Marked as Uninstalled.

[blue7]

works fine for me on 3.8.3

[Eric]

i did everything step by step and i wont get any error but on group permission no any options to set "can mark as solved" and on showthread too no any option to select thread as solved
It looks like it's the last option in "Post / Thread Permissions", for some reason when you installed it, it didn't include the permission title; and I can't reproduce this error. The only way this could happen, I believe, is if you didn't upload the bitfield_solvedthread.xml file to the proper folder (/includes/xml/)

[Markos]

any chance u can help me on this one SecondV

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1831283&postcount=84

cant anyone help me ???

[Frondy]

To make prefix visible and sortible:

Edit the threadbit template

find:
$thread[prefix_rich]

replace with:

<if condition="$thread['prefix_rich']"><a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]f=$thread[forumid]&prefixid=$thread[prefixid]"> $thread[prefix_rich]</a></if>

All done... Prefix is now visible and this template modification will allow you to click any prefix and sort them by that criteria.

Thanx to Magnumutz

[yotsume]

I was looking forward to installing this mod but after reading this thread there is no way I will install until the bugs are worked out.

Also, there is no reason to do template edits here. So when you make this a proper product thats installs and uninstalls correctly I will think about it.

I need this mods features but cant afford a mod that does not properly uninstall and causes errors.

NOTE: It is not cool that you have included a thumbs.db in your zip file. You need to be better about checking your mod zipper please! The useless file is here: upload\images\buttons\thumbs.db - You need to delete this from your zip file.

[yotsume]

Well I decided to go ahead an install this mod even though the posts in this thread have reported a number of problems. Seems I get to add to the list. :(

I see some bugs...

First bug, in vb3,7x the text is missing next to the option in the usergroup manager to allow this mod.

Second, I have Tab Form Home mod (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=175687&page=101) installed and your mod when enabled simple kills the entire forum and whites out all threads when you click on their link to read them.

I had to deactivate your mod and my forum works again.

So can I get help making your mod work with the TFH Tab Forum Home mod please. I really need your mod to work right.

THANKS!

This is the same problem I have. I am on vb3.7x and PHP running is: 5.2.10

When this mod is on all threads show blank white. As soon as I shut the mod off the threads show correctly again.

If there a fix for this issue?

MISSING OPTION FIX:

There are a few bugs in this current version. I had the same problem. There is a bug with the phrase not being entered correctly in the usergroup options so it looks like it is not listed. For me I just had a blank space with a yes/no bullet and no text next to it.

SOLUTION (what worked for me)
1. Go to AdminCP > Languages & Phrases > Search in Phrases
2. Do a search for: Can Mark Threads as Solved and Unsolved
3. Edit the "solvedthread_canmarksolved" phrase
4. In the field enter: Can Mark Threads as Solved and Unsolved
5. Click SAVE!

NOTE: This phrase edit is needed because there must be a bug in the "bitfield_solvedthread.xml" file. It is NOT adding the phrase text in our usergroup options. So it looks like the option is not there!

(*I included a screen shot of what my options pages looks like without this fix)

6. Next: Go to AdminCP > Usergroups > Usergroups Manager
7. Edit the desired usergroup
8. Look under: "Post / Thread Permissions"
9. The text for: "Can Mark Threads as Solved and Unsolved" should now be listed.
10. Select Yes and click SAVE!

UNRESOLVED BUG: All Threads Show as Blank White Pages
This current version is not entering the text so I just had a yes/no bullet that was unlabeled! The file: bitfield_solvedthread.xml is not doing its job properly on my site. This procedure fixed the missing text for me. However, the issue remains that when this mod is enabled all my threads show as a blank white page!

I sure could use a little help and support here... :) I would really like to get this mod working. Again I am running vb3.7x and my PHP is: 5.2.10

[Eric]

I'm working on an update.

[yotsume]

I'm working on an update.

GREAT NEWS! You have an ETA on that? :D

Well that's interesting - found the blank page problem - vB 3.7 doesn't have the 'can_use_prefix' function... update will come shortly

[yotsume]

Now that I finally have this working.... I have a request after seeing how this works.

1. Ok its great to be able to mark a thread as solved and it automatically adds the prefix [SOLVED].... but...

2. When we change/mark the thread as unsolved that should also automatically create the prefix and add [UNSOLVED] to the thread.

Can you please make that as a new feature since the theme of your day is updating! :p

ADD COLOR TO PREFIX
For people who aren't so html code trained here is a nice thing to add until the developer builds this in.

1. Add a new prefix to the set and label it [UNSOLVED].
2. Add color and bold html to each prefix in the title (Rich Text) field.

SOLVED: <b><font color="#1A5722">[SOLVED]</font></b> This makes a dark bold green color to match solved issues.

UNSOLVED: <b><font color="#C80416">[UNSOLVED]</font></b> This makes a dark bold red color to match unsolved issues.

3. I also installed a mod which allows me to change the prefix of a thread inline while viewing at the forum level. So I can mass change prefixes. ;) That mod does not open and close threads though...

[Markos]

SecondV have u created a sold and unsold one yet ??? and do u think we could get it like this ? https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1831283&postcount=84

[stevetank]

Thanks for this cool mod,

Works a treat.

:)

[Saviour]

2. When we change/mark the thread as unsolved that should also automatically create the prefix and add [UNSOLVED] to the thread.



Personally...and it's just my opinion...I think this request makes no sense...since a thread that is not marked as [SOLVED], by definition alone...means that it IS [UNSOLVED]. So why add a redundant prefix?

[yotsume]

Personally...and it's just my opinion...I think this request makes no sense...since a thread that is not marked as [SOLVED], by definition alone...means that it IS [UNSOLVED]. So why add a redundant prefix?

Actually for a support forum it makes perfect sense! Visually showing the prefix in green or red for solved and unsolved saves a massive amount of time and I have it so when i click on the prefix I can sort the whole forum into the prefix i clicked on.

No prefix means no prefix was selected, but a unsolved prefix clearly means it was unsolved there is nothing redundant at all. Just visual efficiency which can then be sorted with a simple click on the prefix. I have this all working on my site in a selected help form using 3 mods together. This needs to be the standard behavior when you change the thread to unsolved it gets reopened and labeled as such!

Searching and Filtering Results by Prefix
Another big issue which escaped your reply back to me is this: We can search a forum by prefixes. being able to search a forum and filter only solved or unsolved issues is again critical and a must. Now that I have both prefixes in place my Admins, mods, and members can do advanced searches and filter the results by clearly labeled prefixes! ;) So with your idea of not even having an Unsolved prefix now there is no way to really filter unmarked threads form unresolved threads! THATS NOT EFFICIENT AT ALL WHEN FILTERING THROUGH MASS AMOUNTS OF THREADS!

(See advanced search screenshot)

All I am asking is that the same feature this mod does already for marking as solved be applied to the action of unsolved. Clear prefix labels on large boards are critical. ;)

Again, I have mods in place which allow me to mark single or multiple threads by changing prefixes at the forum view level where we see all the threads listed.

It would be great to have this mod simply do what it is designed to do for both solved and unsolved prefixes.

My screenshot says it all! Easy to identify and very easy for me to click on any prefix and the whole forum sorts to that prefix ;)

NOW THATS A HELP FORUM!!! (Did I mention idiot proof? members who are learning to use the forum love "Labels for Dummies")Profession help desk solutions such as Kayako SupportSuite (http://www.kayako.com/solutions/supportsuite/) (the industry standard) all have this as standard because they understand that efficiency, ticket time, response time, is the issue resolved, opened, closed, unresolved, etc all depend of clearly getting that information as quick as possible to the agent. These tweaks are small but the effect is enormous when handling large amounts of submitted issues (threads).

CONCLUSION & FEATURE REQUEST:
When a new thread is created it would be best if it is auto marked with this mod in our selected forums as [UNSOLVED]. Then when the issue has been solved we can change it to [SOLVED] or again back to [UNSOLVED] both with the correct and clear prefix labels. In my opinion having working in the support field professionally... These small additions to your mod will really put the finishing touches on it. Also, for those who want a [For Sale] and [SOLD] mod all they have to do, which has been stated already, is simply change the phrases of this existing mod! ;)

What vBulletin version? I've tested this on an unmodded and modded vB both 3.7 and 3.8 and it worked just fine. I bet you it was there but the phrase didn't show up, and it was probably blank - which doesn't appear to be problems with the hack - the permissions file and phrases are structured as they should be.

[Eric]

I'm still using 1.1.0 and still not having any probs with it :) is I've changed it from Solved to Sold but would like a Sold one created if possible
I'll try to come up with something for you, as soon as I can - my license expires soon though and don't have the $$ to renew, so hopefully it's before then.

[Kai77]

Is there a way to add an option to the forumsearch for filtering either solved or unsolved threads?
If you only want to get solved or unsolved threads displayed in search results.

[bigcurt]

Any update for this?

[bigcurt]

Unfortunately this mod is just weird, I cannot get it to work correctly ever since update to 3.8. I don't understand it..it's so weird lol. This mod is great, but it just plain doesn't work anymore.

[danyxx]

Hellor .. it`s working but i want to have an option for solved and one for unsolved , like:

Mark thread as solved (the thread will be auto-tagged with [SOLVED] & closed)
Mark thread as unsolved (the thread will be auto-tagged with [UNSOLVED] & remain open)

I don`t want that condition that makes apear unsolved only if the thread is set solved .. i want two option if you understand .
Cand you help with modification for this? i will apreciate , regards Dany .

ps: sorry for my bad language :(

[Eric]

Sorry folks, it may be a while before any updates are released, due to some thing going on in my life atm...

[jokerz]

(deleted)

[Luke Carrier]

Awesome modification, but I have a question/suggestion.

Once I've marked a thread solved, is there any way of making it stay ordered at the *bottom* of the forum display page? e.g. if I post in a 'solved' thread (which is closed, but our support team can still post in it), it gets bumped to the of thread list - I'd like to stop this.

This is probably possible with a stock install of vBulletin anyway, but I've just converted from MyBB and am a little confused.

Thanks :)

[ludachris]

Is there a way to "mass" enable the feature in all forums? I have a LOT of forums and turning it on for each one will be very time consuming.

[jluerken]

I found a small bug in version 1.1.1
On the Showthread page I added a NEWTHREAD link next to the REPLY link.
Its a simple Template edit like this

<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/reply.gif" alt="$vbphrase[reply]" border="0" /><else /><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/threadclosed.gif" alt="$vbphrase[closed_thread]" border="0" /></if></a>&nbsp;<a href="newthread.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newthread&amp;f=$foruminfo[forumid]" rel="nofollow"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/newthread.gif" alt="$vbphrase[post_new_thread]" border="0" /></a>


If on the SHOWTHREAD page the New Thread link is not working cause the
do=newthread&amp;f=$foruminfo[forumid] is empty meaning if you hover the link its showing do=newthread&amp;f= and not do=newthread&amp;f=12345 for example.

If I disable your addon its working fine again so I think your addon is messing around with the $foruminfo[forumid] part.

Can you please check this?

[positiverep]

I've installed the mod successfully and can choose the option to put [solved] as a prefix but [solved] doesn't show up anywhere on the thread. Does anyone know why?

[ludachris]

I just upgraded this mod since I upgraded from vb 3.6 to 3.8.x and found out after that it isn't recommended that we upgrade. I can't get the showthread template to display the options after I modified the template, even in the forums I've enabled. What do I do now? I don't want to uninstall and lose all of the old threads that show as "solved".

[guvner]

Just installed this onto my 3.8.3 (tech support) forum and it works perfectly! (still testing in my admin only forum)

Thank you SecondV - this will be so useful. :up:

Mike :)

[guvner]

For anyone who's experiencing permissions problems with this mod (as I did for a while), remember that there are two sets of permissions that need to be enabled.

The main one has been well covered here and is a Usergroup option:

Usergroups >> Usergroup Manager >> Edit Usergroup >> Post/Thread Permissions >> Can Mark Threads as Solved and Unsolved.

The second and less obvious one is via in your thread prefix manager:

Thread Prefixes >> Thread Prefix Manager >> Solved Thread >> [SOLVED] >> Edit Permissions

Hope that helps anyone who missed the second one as I did. :)

[Eric]

Sorry guys, I'll try to get the any questions/issues and a new release as soon as I can. Just a lot going on right now.

[Jamey]

I might try this.

[ShadMan]

I just installed the 1.1.1 release on vB 3.8.2 and am having the same issues mentioned above with "Can Mark Threads as Solved and Unsolved" not showing up in the Usergroup options (easy enough to fix) and nothing but white pages every time a thread is viewed (No idea how to fix).

Can someone please post up the fix for the white pages? The developer referred to it as an issue with 'can_use_prefix' function, but I can't find this function in any of my templates in 3.8.2 .

[SVTCobraLTD]

Had 1.0.1 installed on 3.6.8 but now upgrade to 1.1.1 on 3.8.4 but its not showing up. Any ideas?

[Eric Anderson]

uninstall and go back to the earlier version that is what worked for me and Now I have Fully converted it o Sold instead of Solved.

I will give that a try.

Mine is saying Sold instead of Solved too. Did you just change the phrases?

[Miss Chatterbox]

Oh dear I'm not having much luck with this mod although I am convinced it's my fault.

I followed all the steps. Then when I went to edit usergroup permissions it said "rebuilt postbits successfully" but there is no mention anywhere in usergroup permissions of marking a thread as solved. What is bizarre is under "Post/Thread Permissions" in Usergroup Manager there is a an option to click yes or no to somthing but it doesn't tell you what - it's just blank except for 'yes' or 'no'.

I've tried looking for a mark thread as solved option when I created a new thread as well but can't find the option anywhere. Any idea what I have done? Please help!

[emath]

i have a prefixes already, when i press "mark as solved" the older prefix is deleted.

is there any way to keep the old prefix, and just add the [SOLVED] prefix? and maybe even put it at the end of the thread title ?

<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/reply.gif" alt="$vbphrase[reply]" border="0" /><else /><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/threadclosed.gif" alt="$vbphrase[closed_thread]" border="0" /></if></a>&nbsp;<a href="newthread.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newthread&amp;f=$foruminfo[forumid]" rel="nofollow"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/newthread.gif" alt="$vbphrase[post_new_thread]" border="0" /></a>


If on the SHOWTHREAD page the New Thread link is not working cause the
do=newthread&amp;f=$foruminfo[forumid] is empty meaning if you hover the link its showing do=newthread&amp;f= and not do=newthread&amp;f=12345 for example.

If I disable your addon its working fine again so I think your addon is messing around with the $foruminfo[forumid] part.

Can you please check this?

Second that, having the same problem

Also still the phrase is missing, so please fix this

I consistently get this error message after modifying the default showthread on 3.8.4 patch 1 with your instructions.

The message you have entered is too short. Please lengthen your message to at least 10 characters.

I have a wired problem
I as admin can mark threads, and I see the prefix choice. But none of my users can see the same? I have hooked for all usergroups in premission section, and as admin I see it works. But only for me?

[Blind Dragon]

Works great :up: Installed and marked.

Only thing I am trying to change is so that it actually injects solved into the original posts topic - so that the search index includes "Solved"

searchin our forums for "Solved" doesn't return the results from the ones marked, only threads manually changed.

[karel1985]

Secondv,

I would like to have that my crew people (non-moderator) can mark others threads as solved.
Is this possbible?

[migowebdesign]

Please made this mod compatible ti vb 4.

Is there a timeplan, when the addon will be there?

Thanks

1.1.1 still doesn't work right with 3.8...I wouldn't count on vB4 support.

Also, "Supported" needs to be removed from the options at the top, as the developer hasn't posted replies to any issues in 2.5 months.

[migowebdesign]

Not working? At my Board with 3.8.4 PL1 it's working perfectly :)

[ShadMan]

You're one of the lucky ones. Read back in this thread to see how many forums (including mine) completely stop functioning with this mod installed...nothing but blank white pages are displayed when enabled. I'm on 3.8.4 PL2. Sure would be a handy mod if I could get it to work.

[migowebdesign]

IMHO maybe it's another mod, which causes the error together with this here enabled...

P.S. Sorry, i use vb 3.8.4 PL2 too (not PL1) ;)

[ShadMan]

I have no doubt that another mod, style, etc. is causing the problem, as it seems to work for some people, but I have disabled all other mods to test, and still no love. Something about this mod makes it incompatible with a large number of forums...I just don't know what mod/style/template change all of us have in common that is causing the issue. I have relatively few mods installed, but a couple large ones such as vBAdvanced CMPS and vBCredits, neither of which I'm willing to give up for this mod should they be found to be the problem.

I've only had trouble with one other mod, ever, and that was apparently because I use mysqli instead of mysql.

For reference, here are the mods I have installed. If anyone else experiencing the same issue has any of these mods, please post up!

Being unemployed, anything that can bring in cash takes top priority ;)

Anyway, as far as this mod - I can't reproduce the issues most folks are having on any of my forums, or ones I manage. I have this mod running perfectly on a 3.8 forum with nearly 4 million posts, 200,000 members, and 15-20 other mods/hacks.

When I get the time, I'll look into it more - and I may port it to vB4.

How can I make this for my classified section.. to say SOLD instead of SOLVED? I still have the 3.6 version working on my 3.8.4 forum :)

[porschinho]

Hi i think i found a small "BUG".

with this

while ($forum = $db->fetch_array($prefixforums))
{
array_push($prefix_forums, $forum['forumid']);
}


you kill the vbulletin $forum array in showthread.php

i used to put the forum-title of a thread ($forum[title]) into the page-title to get better keywords (SEO). after i installed this addon, the forum-title was never shown in the page title, because $forum[title] does not exist anymore.

is it possible to solve this problem?

edit:

a workaround for me is to put the value of $forum[title] into another variable at the beginning of the plugin and use this variable in the template.

[DaPike]

Hi guys,

I have a little problem with this mod on my vB 3.8.2
In my SHOWTHREAD.PHP I have placed the button NEW THREAD against the button ANSWER.
The Code looks like this:

<td class="smallfont"><a href="newreply.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newreply&amp;noquote=1&amp;p=$FIRSTPOSTID" rel="nofollow"><if condition="$show['closethread']"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/reply.gif" alt="$vbphrase[reply]" border="0" /> <a href="newthread.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newthread&amp;f=$foruminfo[forumid]" rel="nofollow"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/newthread.gif" alt="$vbphrase[post_new_thread]" border="0" /><else /><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/threadclosed.gif" alt="$vbphrase[closed_thread]" border="0" /></if></a></td>

The new code for the button NEW THREAD is:

<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/newthread.gif" alt="$vbphrase[post_new_thread]" border="0" />

Everything is working fine, when the mod MARKED AS SOLVED is not activated!
But when I activate the mod, it's not possible to use the NEW THREAD button, because in the URL the forum ID is no longer transmitted.
The end of the URL line looks like this: ...newthread&f=
instead of: ...newthread&f=27

Please help me to fix this problem because the mod is needed!

Thx for your help. And sry for my bad english.

I'll look into that, atm not sure how I should handle that - other than you could probably rename the prefix.

That doesn't tell me much - what error do you get? You should not be getting any errors upon removing this hack.

[Jman423]

Well, unless I am unaware of something, the MOD as it stands now can only handle one prefix, right? I was thinking of supporting multiple prefixes, and then like you said, we can make our own prefixes and have it say whatever we want.

how can i fix it on 3.8.3

[drbox]

sorry

this problem really exicts

[Eric]

Topics randomly getting a solved prefix is not possible. This mod uses the threadid which is unique to each topic.

And yes, it is necessary to enable the prefix in forums, otherwise this mod won't work - as it uses vBulletin's prefix system.

[3DSJFH]

I'm certain to have configured this properly. As an administrator I can use the add-on without a problem to solve/unsolve threads in the forums I have designated.

However, I'm trying to give these permissions to a newly created usergroup outside of the standard moderators, super mods, and administrators and I can't get it to work. It won't show the option in the drop down menu and even if I force it to show it won't allow them to use the tool.

I have already set this usergroup permissions (Solved Threads Permissions) to Yes and given permissions to use the prefix.

Any pointers?

Thank you.

This mod doesn't directly do anything with the prefix tables.

Unfortunately it's not possible, with the way vBulletin currently handles prefixes.

Should be able to.

[xlguy]

Just installed this on 3.8.4 and having a strange problem. The install goes ok (and I uploaded the files) but it appears the language is missing. For example when you go to edit the Usergroup permission you see a yes/no tickbox but no text. Likewise when I check the prefix area I see the prefix group but there's no name for it. Any thoughts/help? :)

[oldford]

Does the usergroup need to have specific permission to close/lock a thread? I'm using this mod and it works fine, but when a member marks their thread as "SOLVED" it doesn't automatically lock it, even though I have that setting checked.

When I test it it works fine, but as admin I have permission to close threads.

I tried to Import the product and got an error message "Invalid File Specified"
Its the bitfield_solvedthread.xml file.

I searched a little and got posts that says this is due to a confusion between products and plugins. But I have done exactly as specified here. What did I miss out? :(

[Simon Lloyd]

bitfield_solvedthread.xml is neither a product nor a plugin, it is meant to go in your includes/xml folder you haven't uploaded the files properly.

[X_FiLeS]

I have uploaded the files and installed the product but when i go to Set options in AdminCP > vBulletin Options > Solved Threads, i only get 3 options and not 5 options.

[Simon Lloyd]

Thats correct there are only 3 options, any other options are when you are setting your prefix groups.

This is odd, yes. It happens on and off for me it seems. I've not been able to find any real reason for it unfortunately.

That's strange, the code doesn't check for permissions to lock - hmm... I wonder if the thread datamanager does - I'll have to look into that.

This is odd, yes. It happens on and off for me it seems. I've not been able to find any real reason for it unfortunately.
I had this too on my 3.8.6 forum, this is solved when going to the prefix manager.
Edit the prefix where no text is present, just click "save" and the text appears instantly everywhere.

It seems normal to me that users that don't have permission to close their own threads, also can't use the automatic closed option from this mod.

[Gav-n-Tn]

I just installed this, thank you!

Edit the prefix where no text is present, just click "save" and the text appears instantly everywhere. Right on! :up: That's what I had to do. Took me a minute to figure it out. This needs to be added to the install instructions. Even an experienced board owner would get jammed up by that one step not being there.

[Gav-n-Tn]

One request. Code another so that threads -in specific forums- can be marked as Sold. I don't want to alter this one because I have a forum for asking questions which I'm using this one in. Or, can I have permission to do it myself? Actually, I already did but would like your blessing on installing it :)

[Black Tiger]

I use the term [opgelost] but discovered that it's not showing up on forumhome's "last post" column. I'm not any good in coding, how and where can I fix it so this does show up? Please tell me in e a "search this and replace with this" kind of way.;)

Furthermore it would be nice to have a mandatory "open" status prefix. Can I use the normal prefix manager for that, will this not conflict when a thread is solved and marked solved?

[Black Tiger]

Fixed the above myself by putting the forums on a mandatory prefix [OPEN] and added that prefix to the "solved" prefix set.

But there is another problem/bug with this mod.
When setting a thread to solved, the prefix will be set to solved, but the forum information is not rebuild immediately. This way the "Solved" prefix is only visible in showthread and forumdisplay but not on forumhome!

I explained here:

I believe I've found a bugfix for that...

If you look in your solved.php, on line 117, it has: $threadman->save();

Under that, on a new line, if you put: build_forum_counters($threadinfo['forumid']); it should work fine. The same goes for on line 150. So your end code should be:

line 117
$threadman->save();
build_forum_counters($threadinfo['forumid']);

and line 150
$threadman->save();
build_forum_counters($threadinfo['forumid']);


While this isn't guaranteed, and on large boards this could cause a performance problem, this should update your fourmhome to reflect any changes. :)

[Black Tiger]

The normal prefixes also update immediately so that would be a performance problem also then or am I mistaken?

Anyway, many thanks for your solution, I'm going to try this! Thank you!

While the save() does take resources, duh, it only affects one thread. The build_form_counters function, unfortunately, scans each thread in a forum which can be a bit intensive. But anyway, no problem. :)

Anyone? Still not showing unsolved. I have to go to Thread Tools to unsolve this however once that is done, the solve button shows again. I confirmed the image location is corrected for unsolved.

[Simon Lloyd]

So what are you saying?, if you mark a thread solved and then go to thread tools the image is still that of "mark as solved", is that correct?, what is the text that shows?

looking at the snippet you supplied i'd say it's correct but did you change that for EVERY occurrence in the steps shown above?

[SVTCobraLTD]

See attached screen shot.

This is what the thread looks like before you click "Mark Sold" Once clicked, that thread refreshes and is marked as sold (or solved), however, there will be no image where the current button is. There is supposed to show a button saying "Mark Unsold".

If you go to thread tools, it works fine both ways via that menu.

[Black Tiger]

Please help me I'm having a problem uninstalling. I got this mod on one forum and tried it on a second, but then wanted to uninstall it again.
Now this is happening:
Fatal error: Existing data passed is not an array
Called set_existing in [path]/admincp/plugin.php(1522) : eval()'d code on line 20
Called eval in [path]/admincp/plugin.php on line 1522
in [path]/includes/class_dm.php on line 235
#0 vb_error_handler(256, Existing data passed is not an array
And a lot more error codes.

I had a look at the solution given in post #34 but this is not good because the uninstall code for 1.1.2 is only:
$db->hide_errors();

$db->query_write("ALTER TABLE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "usergroup DROP solvedthread_permissions");
$db->query_write("ALTER TABLE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "thread DROP is_solved");

require_once(DIR . '/includes/class_bitfield_builder.php');
vB_Bitfield_Builder::save($db);
build_forum_permissions();

// ################################################## #####################
require_once(DIR . '/includes/adminfunctions_prefix.php');
require_once(DIR . '/includes/functions_prefix.php');

$prefixsetdm =& datamanager_init('PrefixSet', $vbulletin, ERRTYPE_CP);
$prefixset = $db->query_first("
SELECT *
FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "prefixset
WHERE prefixsetid = 'solvedthread'
");
$prefixsetdm->set_existing($prefixset);
$prefixsetdm->delete();

build_prefix_datastore();

$db->show_errors();
So the text from the solution in post #34 is not present.

How can I fix things so I can uninstall this mod?

[Black Tiger]

Problem can be ignored because it is fixed.

The prefix was removed before the uninstall.
So I deleted the lines below the //#### which uninstalled the prefixset and now the mod uninstalled.

[dendrob]

Great mod. I installed it and modified things a bit so I can have "Solved" or "Unsolved" showing. It works great and in the thread listing in that forum all threads are correctly marked as "Solved" or "Unsolved", but on FORUMHOME, even though the thread has been changed it shows with it's old prefix when it was created. I then Have to go to Maintenance->Update Counters->Rebuild Forum Information for it to show correctly.

[Black Tiger]

@Dendrob: Correct. Have a look at post #204 (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=2111519&postcount=204) from sheppardzwc, you can use that as a fix. Worked for me too.
