[TalkVirginia]

Looks great! Keep up the good work. One suggestion you may want to do is to add a break after the limited portion of the post and the register message so that it looks something like this:

<limited message>
<register message>

Another idea (which I imagine you have already thought of..) is to allow for a custom register message to be set in the admincp.

Just a thought. :)

Edit: Additional thoughts to anyone testing this. You will need to go into the post hide plugin and modify the url to point to your register.php file. I also added a "< br />" before the register message.

Edit: I'm noticing that posts that have quotes in them, the message and the register message with link is not displayed. Only the word "register" is displayed with no link. I tried relocating the html in the register message as follows:



if (!$vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] )
{ $post['message'] = (substr($post['message'], 0, 50)). '<br/>Please <a href="\site\register.php" type="text/html">Register</a> to see the whole posting.';
}



...and everything after the '>' in the beginning href is displayed. It looks like something in the quote rendering is conflicting with this.

If I run across any other observations, I'll post them as I find them.

hth,
Jim

[tazattitude]

Great start!
I changed the 50 to 150
And added a break before the message.

Installed and voted

[Delilahs]

In the product.xml file, I've changed some to;

['userid'] )

{ $post['message'] = (substr($post['message'], 0, 100)). '......Please register to see the whole post,<br> </br> you can register by clicking the link <a href="/forum/register.php" type="text/html">Register here</a>';

}]]></phpcode>


It now directs to my register page no trouble at all, nice mod.

Thanks

[MikeHolohan]

this is an excellent idea, will wait until it is working properly first tho...

[Delilahs]

It's active on my site. for those of you who want to have a look at it in action.

[Charlie98902]

Thanks Delilahs I was thinking this mod only showed the first post and limited at that but it seems not?

[Delilahs]

It does the whole thread which is superb, I also have the limited viewing system in place, set at 8 posts, but this gives me the option to now turn off the limited viewing system.

Since my last post, I've tweaked it a bit more so it looks a bit more presentable to guests.

Open up the product.xml file with a text editor and replace with the following to get the same result

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

If your forums are not in the forum directory, then just change 'forum' to the name of your forum directory.

Job done.

Edit, I think this Mod is absolutely superb, so much so that I've rated it and also nominated it for MOTM, which is something I never do, I know I've played around with the product.xml, but the concept is what makes it so good, so well done to the original coder for setting it up in the first place.

[Charlie98902]

Delilahs that replacement allows what I was wanting? Sorry I haven't looked back on your forum to see.

[Delilahs]

Charlie, Have a look at my forum to see, But it works fine for me and has allowed me to open my forum right up, I've limited it to 100 characters, which is more than enough for people to see what the forum is about, if they don't register now, then they can't be that bothered.
I really do like the options this now gives me as a forum owner.

[Charlie98902]

Thanks just looked and saw that part of the code so yes nice indeed. Thanks Delilahs.

The Hide links from Guests Mod for vB4 (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=123415)

Hum I know this mod but this is not VB 4 version

I think that would be cool to make one mod with options to hide links, hide after X letters, hide links and after X letters, ...

On my board, the first thing posted is a link and after a text...

[Universal]

I was wondering if it was possible to add in options different category IDs (Forums) we can choose to use this mod on? This is so it is not used on the whole forum.

[Delilahs]

Open AdminCP, go to "Addons & Plugins", "Manage Plugins" -> "Add-on : Show partial post guests"

Edit the "post hide" and replace it with the following code:

if (!$vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] )

{ $post['message'] = (substr($post['message'], 0, 100)). '<font color="#FF0000">.....<br></br>[<i>Du musst angemeldet sein um den kompletten Beitrag zu sehen: <a href="/register.php" type="text/html"> </i><b>Hier registrieren</b></a>]</font>';

}

You only have to translate it to the text you want, because I'm using it in German language.
If that's a problem for you, please send me a PN with the text you need.

Greetz from Germany

It is a mod configurable through the Management Panel (General Options->Options):

Activate or deactivate the Mod.
Activate globally for all forums or forum to forum (in manager of forums->edit forum)
Activate way debug for that as admin can adjust its
Quantity effect of characters to show the text of a message or
Percentage of the text (the total of characters of the message) to show
Text to show in replacement of the rest of the message.
Redirection that you want to provide (habitual and default register.php)


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Probad con este. Funciona perfecto. Se ve todo en ACP y al editar foros. Cumple con todo lo prometido por tyfoon.

Espero que se le pueda a?adir alguna cosa m?s.

Lo dejo en adjunto en espa?ol e ingl?s.

Es un mod configurable a trav?s del Panel de Gesti?n (Opciones Generales->Opciones):

Activar o desactivar el Mod.

Cantidad de caracteres a mostrar del texto de un mensaje o
Porcentaje del texto (respecto al total de caracteres del mensaje) a mostrar
