Installed thanks

[KURTZ]

how about the original (author's) IP ... ? :)

[Sador]

Nice. I used to have a mod that allowed me to also edit the IP and date / time when posting or editing a new thread / post in vB3.

Would you perhaps be willing to add those functions to your mod too? That would be great.

Thanks in advance anyway, installed. :)

[tahrim]

Nice one

[cooltechie]

We also would like the modification of the date/time for forum posts.

We were using this mod: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=200952

[TimberFloorAu]

So we can Change the thread owner as the THREAD is created ?
Previous versions of this, meant you had to post as A and then edit and change to B

So in this example: I can create a thread and choose the AUTHOR on the fly ?

Date edit would be useful.
IP edit not so useful for me, as only admins have that viewable, plus if in 6 months I track back to the thread I created in another authors name, a quick IP check shows it was me who did it lol

Installed , EXCELLENT !!!!!

I would like the option when EDITING a post I created as another AUTHOR, to be able to change that AUTHOR to yet another AUTHOR>

Can we do this.

[Fungsten]

Good Mod. BTW I can't find this template:

In vbcms_edit_publisher template, find:
<div class="twothirdsright">{vb:raw username}</div>

But everything seems to work ok though.

[Videx]

If it weren't for the four template edits needed, this would be nice. I just hate to have to re-edit all those files every time I upgrade. I'd sooner just delete the post and let the person re-post it under the correct name.

What do you mean?
You CAN edit the post's author, just press edit post and you'll see the option.

anyways, i think that you can build this hack without any templates edits ... :)

User A replies to a thread
I edit User A's post, and no option to change author

Is it possible to put all posts of a deleted user to the active username?

[tlwwolfseye]

That is a very nice Mod. I just installed it on my vB4.0.3. I can change the Authors Name, but from the pictures posted above, I can't see any Publishing Options such as when it was posted etc. to change that.

What did I miss ?

[MrKramer]

Please can you make this as a product, i hate editing my templates.
I will use when its a product.
its a verry good mod though.

[tarus]

thanks.. I've been waiting a long time... installed & working.. :)

[robbiefritz]

I think that I will wait for a version that does not require template edits. I have used such a hack in the past but for the little that I would use it, I will just repost and delete.

Thanks for the effort!

[Yellow Slider]

The modification now lets you change creation date of posts.

[Frans72]

I actually *prefer* the template-edits. No matter how you do it you have to add *something* to regular vB.

There are mods which inject their code into existing templates and thus they require no template-edits. However such injections are not handled on a vB update at all, the upgrade/diff system doesn't even see them. So they might simply stop working on a new version 'cos the injection code doesn't find its target anymore.

With template edits, the regular diff system will pick up problems. Easier.

[robotnjik]

is it possible to add change date option for blog entries :)!?
thanks!

[elmstr]

Thanks for the update! Installed and working fine.

The Plug-in shows still V 1.0 (from the new XML)...

thank you for tthe upgrade but can you please add the changing time and date in new threads and replies.

Thank you very much

[chipc0i]

how change many threads' author in same times?

[asuccar]

Can you please help...

I installed everything exactly as your instructions indicate (i've quadruple checked everything)...when i create an article the author field does appear and I select 'display author' but BUT when i save the article the author still shows up with my username.

Can you suggest anything?

[rmd708]

I also had this issue-

check your permissions settings- does the username your trying to use have "permission" to post an Article . . .

changing the permissions for that group worked for me. GL

[asuccar]

I checked all my permissions...ok.

For the articles, can't i just add any name?

[ArchAngelz]

Quite strange, when I download and install the product, it shows as v1.0

[ArchAngelz]

I've tried this out and it seems that making posts in the name of another person does NOT give that other person the post count of the post just created; is this intended or is it a bug?

[sportsfroma2]

Thanks for this!

stupid Question- If I only wanted the ability to change the author of the articles for the CMS (my Impex Port left some authors blank), I only need to do that template edit, right?

Thanks!

[sportsfroma2]

darn it wouldn't work for me in the CMS :( the field is there, I enter my own username (I'm an admin, have all the rights for the CMS and stuff), but it doesn't stay when I save/apply

[sportsfroma2]

oh and PS- the product identifies itself as version 1.0, not 2.0

[ispots]

Does anyone else have an issue where the edited time vs the posted time are off by a few hours??

This mod somehow attaches the word "Default" before every post title.

How can this be fixed?

Doesn't do that for me. You can try disabling one plugin of this mod at a time and see if it goes away.

[thunderclap82]

I've installed the mod and I can change the author in the forums, but not the articles in the CMS page. How can I do this?

[trafficbrokers]

I plan on using this to easily change the order of sticky posts. We use a lot of them and want them in a certain order, so when we add a new sticky it's a pain, but with this mod it should be super easy. My question is that after I changed the date of a sticky post, in order to get it re-sorted properly I had to rebuild the thread information. Does this sound right? So it sounds like I should probably set-up a scheduled task to rebuild the thread information every night, or we will have to remember to rebuild it manually each time we use this mod to change a posts date, right??

Good Day,

I use this mod at two RPG boards and it is vital to our games. Great work!

I have, however, run into an issue with it and wonder if we could get a fix for it?

We have characters in the Stargate RPG (and may have in the Babylon 5 one in the future) that have apostrophes in their names (Examples: Col. Jack O'Neill, Teal'c, etc.).

When we go to edit a post to add our portions of the story, in posts owned by O'Neill or Teal'c, the mod cuts the name off after the apostrophe and resets the post owner to "Guest". For example, Col. Jack O'Neill becomes Col. Jack O and that is, of course, an unregistered name.

I am providing screen shots. Please let me know if this can be fixed.

Regards and Thanks

Alisa

[Webbstre]

Thank you for this add-on!

[Webbstre]

I do have one bug to mention, though it might not be on the side of your mod, not sure: If a CMS post has no author (such as when you do an import and then merge a CMS user into the admin) then you cannot give the post an author. I went through about 4 Impex imports before I tracked down the problem.

[Michlerish]

THIS MOD IS AMAZING!

Thank you so much. I very often forget to log out of admin account and make posts that should be on my personal account... this mod allowed me to change them all appropriately :)

[Fungsten]

On VB 4.0.3 PL1 it doesn't add the extra post count to the user in whose name you posted. Also I can't change the date either. TIA.

On Edit:

I've also noticed that though it doesn't add on a post when the post is deleted it subtracts from the post count.

[ArchAngelz]

I am experiencing the same thing and this is easily reproducible.

The post count goes to the account actually making the post.

This problem can be solved by running the Update Counters > Update Post Counts; but can be quite a pain to use all the time.

Hope this bug can be fixed.

Alternatively, in the meantime, does anyone know how I can run "update counters" as a scheduled task or something?

[ArchAngelz]

I've discovered another limitation of this mod.

If for example, User A is logged in, and tries to post as User B.

All users who have subscribed to that thread will see User A as the one who is posting; and hence, User B's real identity is known.

[Webbstre]

Is anyone else unable to edit CMS article authors after upgrading to version 4.0.4?

Edit: I appear to be experience a vbulletin bug that is making it so my template edits are not showing up. Not this mod's fault.

[Alisa Lindsay]

I hate to post this again, however, I did not see this had been answered either way. My apologies if it was an I missed the answer.

this is a great mod but problems to me. If I post using another username I have register myself I go to my profile and see that posts dont count on second user and counts as the primary user. Im an admin and will like to post as somone else but this Mod screw me over as members can see Im both users. That is not good, i thought this will count to the other user and not my self,

what is the point of using this mod if at the end you not covering anything but posting with 2 different usernames and counting to the main user account.

Now I ask can this be fix?

Does the count fix itself if you make vbulletin recalculate post counts?

apparently it fixed the post count but.... I still have the problem that posts still show my second username.

What is the point of using this Mod if all post made when you change the author name still will be show the main user posted?

Is there a way to fix this before I get caught in act? lol

Where does it show the second username (and where the first) ?

[hotslot]

Forum Section Works.

CMS Section in edit has option to change Name however when saved/published it does not stick and goes back to original username unless the username is real. I want to use real names not registered.

thoughts?

[hotslot]

sorry double post.

[FReeSTER]

ok, when you go to member profile in forum members, just look at member Find all posts and ther you will see all posts made by main username and all posts made by the fake user as well posted by me.

[kisanjong]

any updates for 4.12 ? thanks

[vgevolution]

I was able to get the functionality I needed by installing both this addon (to handle Articles) and this one by Phalynx (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=245183) for threads and other mass edits. The biggest bug seems to be that if an article has been published and you change the author, the comments forum thread still shows the original author. I fixed that by using Phalynx's addon to edit the comment thread author. His mod seems to handle post counts/etc a little better, but doesn't do Articles.

For those who don't like template edits, you should look into this mod by Andreas (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=152931). It will store all template edits by product without actually editing the templates using a search/add or replace engine. Developed for vb3, it actually still functions admirably with vb4, the only exception being it cannot edit css templates (YET -- there's a single bug (http://tracker.vbulletin.com/browse/VBIV-7378) stopping the update, please vote on it to be fixed). One thing that makes it awesome is this is the only way to safely edit your Master templates, plus it allows you to export your template edits by product, so for this example, I've created a template edit import file you can use to perform all of the edits needed to make this mod work. I changed the final template edit, making it so it will show the "current" author's name in the entry box for articles, which currently shows as a blank input box. If necessary, you can create a different edit which retains the "current author" as static text, then adds an input box to change the author. I'm actually looking into utilizing the autocomplete code as seen in many other ajax-enabled areas, so you can start typing a username, and you would see a popup with username suggestions to choose from. If I get it working, I'll submit the template edits needs for it.

Mod Suggestion: maybe as a separate mod from this, would it make sense to have a mod that adds a Pen Name field for each user, and if a user who uses a Pen Name writes an article, the CMS system would display the Pen Name instead, and attribute the article to a generic user id for anonymity?

It appears that when a post is modified the time stamp on the post is changed to the curruent time and date. Is this by design?

[Merriweather]

I can't tell from the description, screen shots or posts if this mod can do what I would like, so here is my question:

Can a user change the post owner to ANY user, or only specified users? For instance, if I say Usergroup A can change the post owner, can I limit them to ONLY be able to change the post owner to ONE username (i.e. "Anonymous")?

Also, does this mod record who the true author was somewhere for admin purposes?

[reddyink]

Excellent MOD!.
I just need this change only when editing the POST as I don't want two more entries appear when posting a new thread.
How do I do that?

Mines is the same too, had to go in manually to change the date and time on most of my posts *uninstalled* otherwise a good modification if working. I could go to edit my post as admin i normally use advanced posting for better looking posts etc, then if someone was to post my post would appear 2nd, i thought it was down to the forums time structure so i set it to normal, same thing has been happening, i have to edit a post and set an earlier time than the previous post.

Im using 4.1.3 also,anyone else having this trouble? better yet is there a solution?

[Mikevet1984]

The problem is that when admins and moderators (who are able to use the hack) make a new thread the date provided by the mod is not the real one.

It is many hours before and posts seem to have been created from the future....haha The mod does not use the local time of the forum. If you have not noticed that soon, this can screw up the appearance of a forum and confuse the users.

[hohleweg]

Hi
Admin can use it its ok,
but i dont see the option in usergroups, for Moderator ?

Thank you! I do not think the coder even takes a single look to this thread. There is no reply to the complains so many days now.... Stay away from this mod until it is fixed!

Yes this mod is a good idea but the dates it inputs seem to appear in the future. Ideally this mod wouldn't have post dates changeable, only author.

I will be more then great full to pay it to get this post timing fix

[thebigb010]

Yes there is a time/date issue with this. It is an EXCELLENT mod but time/date is real confusing.

Hopefully the coder can fix this.

[Domy]

Come posso rimuovere le impostazioni su data e ora, e lasciare solo quelle sull'autore, quando APRO un topic?
Mentre quando MODIFICO un topic va bene che restano tutte le impostazioni.
Sorry for my english...

[Domy]

How can I remove the date and time settings, and leave only the author, when I OPEN a topic?
As when EDITING a topic that goes well all the settings remain.
Sorry for my english.

[Domy]

Up!

[David_R]

I tried Installing its not working @ all in Vbulletin 4.1.4 I dunno whats wrong. Can you please help me..?

[Bladerah]

i dunno, but its not working at all for me either

[Gecuba]

Mod is not working in 4.1.5 version. The option for editing Author-Date-Time isn't appear (expanded editing).

[CraiovaOnLine]

this would be so ASOME if i could post as unregistred with a name at my choosing

[thunderclap82]

This mod works for me in 4.1.5, but I too have the date error.

[Majest]

I have installed this due to the date error. It's a shame as it was a nice mod. If the date error is fixed I'll install it again.

[spencerp]

I have installed this due to the date error. It's a shame as it was a nice mod. If the date error is fixed I'll install it again.

I agree, was working good till recently. Installed on vBulletin 4.1.7. And after a server move, now all my threads are showing as 6 or 7 hours off (too early). I want the change author of threads / posts at least. Can someone fix this or release version for just "change author" feature please? lol

[MyPeSePe]

Thank you very much, had many guest posts by a user's old and I come from a pearl

[Za4a Tuner]

Installed on vB4.1.6 -> but when i change a post to an older date -> the whole thread is deleted!

[Pgolus]

Installed on vB4.1.6. I see now see errors in my server log every time I go into Advanced Edit:

File does not exist: /home/bbs/public/clientscript/datepicker

The error is being thrown by /home/bbs/public/editpost.php?p=xxxxxx;do=editpost

I've done a "find" looking for datepicker anywhere on the system but no luck.

[yjeanrenaud]

when will cms integration come back?

[ViperE-mpire]

Get this work with the CMS and I'll install it day 1.

[Joe Siegler]

I've noticed since I updated to vB 4.17, my own posts are an hour behind real time. Any new post or reply has the wrong date. I've had to remove the plugin, because too many posts I'm not noticing they're in the wrong spot.

I'll still activate it when I need to use it to really edit something, but I would like to know if anyone else is having this problem.

[spillage]

For me, quick replies are fine... anything that uses the Advanced editor injects a 3hr offset on the time-stamp when posted.
If I start a new thread it shows as being posted 3 hrs later than it was.
If I edit a post, the time in the field comes up correct, but changes by the offset when saved.

Would a quick fix be to put a local time offset field in the Settings?
Or have a checkbox with the editor field to apply T/D changes... this way we only need to be cognizant of the offset if actually making a T/D change.

[yjeanrenaud]

also, jsquery datetimepickers are wrong.

[yjeanrenaud]

oh and it displays the date and time of the first post in the thread, not the one you edit.

[spillage]

Just upgraded to vB 4.1.9... the time offset issue that started with 4.1.7 still exists.

Is a resolution being worked on, or has support for this Mod ceased?
An progress update would be appreciated, I'm sure.

Thanks,

[angeljs]

Yep, same problem with time and date issues. Really messed up my forums using this mod. :(

[GhostHunter2010]

reserved

[thunderclap82]

Is this mod even being worked on anymore, or has it been abandoned? I've been waiting for CMS to be restored for half a year.

[FReeSTER]

I have it working on my forum 4.1.7
I wish I could get permissions from coder so I can release it and support it.

[spillage]

How did you fix the time offset issue?

[thunderclap82]

I have it working on my forum 4.1.7
I wish I could get permissions from coder so I can release it and support it.

I'd say just do it and credit him as the original coder since he is MIA. You'd have the thanks of many users I think!

[spillage]

Except for these recent issues, this is by far the better of this type mod.

I'm inclined to agree with tc82, after all, it does say "Re-usable Code".
Credit the original coder, and go from there.

[ali1359]

I have the same problem . It changes the time .
What can I do to fix this problem ?

BTW, you can now change the author of articles once again, sorry for the long wait.

Post 142 (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=2269376&postcount=142)I aired my experience with this problem, but was ignored.
This problem exists, but no one wants to acknowledge it, let alone offer a solution.
It is a right PitA having to offset the post time every time you use the Advanced Editor.

This issue is fixed in 3.0.2.

I'm sure we can all appreciate the difficulty in finding time to work on something like this (I certainly don't hold that against you ;) )
In the interim, an acknowledgement of the issue would have been nice... that way we can live in hope of it being addressed when you do get some time, rather than being left feeling ignored and/or abandoned.

Thank you for finding the time... it is truly appreciated.

Another bug :
when this mod is enable, we can't add any tag to CMS article anymore.
Used with vB4.2.0

[Mr_Running]

Installed.
I have a forums which I would prefer not to display the Author And Creation Date.
This mod allow me to update the date so it appears more current.

Please add two options to not display.
Author
Creation Date.

a bonus would be hide the last edited by <-- Only Admin can view.

Excellent mod :)

[Amaury]

Can the time be changed, too? Also, I see from the screenshot that the date format is DD/MM/YYYY, but what's the date format based on? Is it based on the format for the forum or is it its own individual setting in the modification?

I prefer M/D/YYYY (e.g., 8/1/2012).

[dougdirac]

Does this work with 4.2?

[Disco_Stu]

Does this work with 4.2?

Yep. I use it on 4.2.PL2

[yjeanrenaud]

but no luck with the time and date bug?

[dougdirac]

What time/date bug? Seems to work fine for me.

[dougdirac]

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=2269632&postcount=144

So I guess that's long sense been fixed? It works fine for me. I use it to stick a summary post
in as the second post in a thread.

Scary how powerful it is, though. As I only need in on occasion, I'm thinking about leaving it disabled until I do.

[yjeanrenaud]

doug, you're right.
but, is there a chance these edits will appear in mod log somewhen?

[bridgemanusa]

Hi All:

I am running vB 4.2 and just installed this great "product" and am having difficulty with the following:

1. Finding where to enable it for a user group
2. Seeing it actually work.

I simply installed in the product section so is there something else I am supposed to do to activate/use this? Also, we are using the forum functionality of vB only and the need for this tool is to be able to manually migrate some threads/post from another forum while logged in as one user, then change author/date to reflect original (migrated) posts.

Unfortunately, ImPex would not work for my application.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

[yjeanrenaud]

yes.
under admincp > settings you select "Change author and date" and there you choose which user groups by click and hold ctrl.
and then you see it in advanded editor. you'll see it for sure ;)

[Amaury]

Is there a way to tell if a usergroup has permissions to use it or not?

[yjeanrenaud]

yes there is a setting for that in the settings menu.
the author also says so: You can set which usergroups are allowed to use the feature via the ACP.

[Amaury]

yes there is a setting for that in the settings menu.
the author also says so:

Yes, I know, but how do you see if they do?

All you do is click on a usergroup and click Save, but there's no indicator or list showing the usergroups that have the abilities to edit it or not.

I'd prefer check boxes.

[yjeanrenaud]

true. but you can see it from those who are selected in the list

[Amaury]

Another question, then.

Let's say I start creating a thread at 8:39 PM, and I finish it and post it at 8:48 PM. The time the thread was created would be 8:48 PM.

With this modification enabled, though, because you have the option to enter a date and time, it stays on the date and time it was when you first created the thread. So, if the above scenario happened with this enabled, the thread's creation time would be 8:39 PM (incorrect) instead of 8:48 PM (correct).

Is it possible to make it or add a feature so it either doesn't appear when creating new threads and only when editing posts or make the time in the box update in real time? For example, if it's 8:31 PM and then 8:32 PM, make the time in the box change to 8:32 PM (or 20:32 since the modification has military time format).

you may just remove the entries for the hooks newthread_form_complete and newthread_post_start

[Amaury]

Can you elaborate?

[yjeanrenaud]

Go to admincp, Plugins&addons, manage Plugins and uncheck as required to disable.

[Amaury]

Thanks.

Wouldn't I also disable newpost_complete, newpost_process, newreply_form_complete, newreply_form_start and just leave the "edit" ones enabled since I only want to be able to change the author and date and time when editing, not when creating?

[Amaury]

???

[yjeanrenaud]

sure. why don't you just give it a try? it's easily enabled again.

[Amaury]

Is there a way to tell if a usergroup has permissions to use it or not?

Let me rephrase this old question: Can only one usergroup use this at a time?

[yjeanrenaud]

as many as you select. yes, selecting only one is also possible.

[Amaury]

as many as you select. yes, selecting only one is also possible.

Okay, this is what I was asking about before in regards to "how to tell if a usergroup has permissions to use it or not," which I still don't understand.

Here's a screenshot of its settings:

http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m62/AmauryGarcia/ChangeDate-1.jpg

Here's a screenshot of the Auto PM modification settings for a comparison:

http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m62/AmauryGarcia/AutoPM-1.jpg

As you can see, it has check boxes so you know whether it's enabled or disabled for whatever usergroups. If there's a check mark, users in that usergroup will not be sent an auto PM when something is done to their threads or posts, such as an update to information. If there isn't a check mark, users in that usergroup will be sent an auto PM when something is done to their threads or posts.

However, as you can see from the screenshot of this modification -- the first one -- there aren't check boxes like that. So, how do you tell if this modification is enabled or disabled for whatever usergroups?

I should have done this last time, but it never occurred to me to take screenshots to explain what I meant. :x

[yjeanrenaud]

I know, and I tried to explain before: whatever is selected, and therefore blue in your case, is active. to select more than one usergroup, use ctrl

[Amaury]

I know, and I tried to explain before: whatever is selected, and therefore blue in your case, is active. to select more than one usergroup, use ctrl

Ah, thank you.

You didn't let me know of that last time.

[Amaury]

Okay, new question.

I know that it doesn't actually change the format once you submit it, but to prevent confusion when editing (even though it shows what the format is), is it possible to change the date format in the modification's Date box to M-D-YYYY (n-j-Y).

Example: 12/14/2012

I'm wondering if this can also be added to Blogs and Calendars?

[yjeanrenaud]

Anything, Yjeanrenaud?
thing is, this ain't my mod and I consider the mode of selection to be fair enough.
If you want to modify it, change the section
<settinggroup name="change_author_and_date" displayorder="65535">
in the xml to something with checkboxes. radiobuttons won't work as you can only select one at a time.

Okay, thank you.

Do you know if the owner is still active? It might be easier for him / her to implement an option to choose what format you want.

As an example, after asking if it was possible, instead of having us do server work to change it, DragonByte Tech recently implemented a format option for their Username Change modification where you type in the format you want (e.g., n/j/Y - 1/8/2013) in a type box, which controls the format of the Username History tab on profiles.

[yjeanrenaud]

true. but as far as I know, he's not active anymore. I might though change it to some point, but I have only little time right now.

[Amaury]

Thank You smirkley, I don't know why I didn't see that before. I was getting kinda of aggravated.

[AlokSharma]

Its just the one that I had been looking for so long.

It has made my task much easier now. I can now easily modify any post date / time with just a few clicks.

[Amaury]

We don't have the suite and therefore don't have CMS. Would it be safe to delete those plugins?

EDIT: Deleted with no issues.

[autoescala]

Don't appears the option to edit and change the name and date, Im using VBSEO, maybe cause problems with vbseo ?

[Toorak Times]

This still keeps me going, perfect for newspaper/magazine style sites where copy comes in various manners. Did I miss something about this in Blogs?

[yjeanrenaud]

@autoescala: nope. works with vbseo

[cavyspirit]

If I change the post date of the initial post on the thread, will that change the position of that thread in the thread list for that forum? In essence, pushing down that thread in the list?

[yjeanrenaud]

if you sort by creation date, yes.

[cavyspirit]

Oh. I sort by the traditional "Last Post Time." I'm looking for a way to push certain threads down in the forum list.

[Divvy]

Installed! Thank you for the mod!

Btw, what happen if we add a future date?

Thanks!

[yjeanrenaud]

For posts, nothing much, will just look weird. For CMS and blogs, they will be unpublished until then. Very useful though

[licensinglinks]

Works OK for me but the old author is displayed in the Activity Stream. Is there a fix for this?

[Amaury]

Works OK for me but the old author is displayed in the Activity Stream. Is there a fix for this?

[Toorak Times]

I could really use this for my Blogs as I have to publish for people at times and it is a pain to have to go in as them and also an intrusion I suppose.

Any help guys?

[djbaxter]

*bump* Anyone know what was updated?

[dougdirac]

Also curious about the update. Would love if this worked for blogs.

[fxdigi-cash]

I can't say much, but when looking at both previous and latest version, I can see a lot of changes.

for example, I can see new feature like:

- Change Author And Date Run Once Admin Global
- Old vb-javascript code based replaced with new one using jquery and aweber
- database sql query

I guess the author should explain what he added, otherwise, it sounds like he is either busy or doesn't want to give details for some "unknown" reason(s)...

[stevieb]

well I just loaded it, nothing in acp or in edit message - does it even work for 4.2.0?

[stevieb]

Settings > Options > Change Author and Date Thanks for this - all working fine now :)

Change Author And Date Run Once Admin Global

What does that mean ?

[DemOnstar]

Installed on 4.2.1..

Great little tool.....

Thanks for this...

[DemOnstar]

Some nautiness discovered...

One can create an article that is seen to be written by another user in CMS but the thread created by that CMS shows the original creator of the thread and not the elected user..

Ok for now but if no change, what is the point?

Thanks... Good effort.....

[Bowlsworld]

Does anyone know how to make this work in my Blogs as well?

[BadgerDog]

Thanks... installed on 4.1.3 and it seems to work fine...

Nice mod .. very helpful... :)

I downloaded the version 3.0.2 on 8/1/12 and it does not have that code in it. I just checked. You must have downloaded the newer version which is now listed on this mod.

I would be very careful about installing any code with embedded redirects. I'm always cautious about using mods and ALWAYS scan them with Norton.

Also , sometimes when you report mod bugs the mod author asks for admin access to you site to check the mod. Giving a stranger admin access or any kind of special access to your site is a very bad idea.

[Toorak Times]

I sent a message to Steve at Lancerforhire to find out Disco, Spam Hammer is his.

I have found this invaluable using the Publishing Suite AS a Publishing suite, being able to posts for Contributors in their name has helped growth and allowed newbies to get their heads around vB ways.

I/we really need this in Calendars and Blogs. FORTUNATELY I have found a work around for the Calendars through a 4.2.1 fix for the Events Forum...I have it working on my 4.2.2pl1 site and it not only allows me to point my bands and promoters to a reliable Gig Guide (given Farcaster's awesome additions for the Calendars and Events Forum).

It has been frustrating not being able to upload pics from my computer, iCalendars only accept url uploads and for my punters contributors this is often too much to work out, their just Bloggers eh?

This works for me and I suppose it will also allow me to change the names of Authors now the Calendars and Forums are connected.

I still REALLY need this for the Blogs though. It is a royal pain to have to login as a member to post for them, a 3 stage process...

I am actually having a lot of fun banging a multimedia newspaper into a vB4 site, www.tooraktimes.com.au, still a dummy, or as youse web dudes say 'Beta' site but a live build.

Anything CMS orientated is much looked for by me.

[Toorak Times]

Steve's cool mate

Got this,

Mick,

I did not take over that mod; the author and I had a partnership some time ago and since spam hammer shut down he removed the code. It appears he forgot to delete a phrase, that's all.

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2014/04/15.png

[Disco_Stu]

That looks like more than just a leftover phrase to me. You might want to report the mod to the admins and have them look at it.

[Toorak Times]

Steve also did Spam Hammer, pity that can't be supported any longer

[Disco_Stu]

It's not really a good idea to include a redirect and prompt for your email address in a mod without disclosing that on the mod description.

[Toorak Times]

It reads to me Yellow Slider has included it in his code, not vBResults, not Steve

[Toorak Times]

I can't write code, but all I know is this mod has helped me enormously as an online Newspaper publisher, and I need it in Calendars and Blogs, it's like I'm being forced to Buddypress on WP to be able to do what I want to do.

IMHO these forums are almost unsustainable, so many great modifications not being ported to 4.2.2 or upgraded as required, even if there are fixes for mods sometimes you have to trawl through pages to find. I spend many hours sifting to find 4.2.2 info. Can someone build a "Stick@end" mod so ALL the latest upgrades to a mod for 4.2.2 can be clearly available,.

My biggest frustration is that 99% of developers are Forum only orientated, the CMS seems alien, forget Blogs and Calendars...pfft...I came in 1t 4.0.1 and chose vB for the CMS, Social Engine was close, WP was still just a Blogger style thing...we've been streeted.

Don't get me wrong, I love all youse dudes, spend a lot of time (too much...my point). It has got to become easier for dummies like me if the platform is to survive.

A LOT of these codes are now public domain, I see that heaps of developers say to use their codes to improve. There are a number in 3.6 that would answer a few questions.

I have paid now many thousands to vB developers, a lot I have chucked or not used, my site is maybe one of the most modified sites ever using vB4.2.2, I went sick, yet I still can't do anything easily.

Happy to support anyone supporting the Publishing Suite Blogs, Calendars, please...CMS widgets that actually work and look cool...

[DemOnstar]

Can someone build a "Stick@end" mod so ALL the latest upgrades to a mod for 4.2.2 can be clearly available,.


This would be a very sensible idea.
An area dedicated to all 4.2.2 mod updates...

I guess this is the wrong area for this discussion..
Maybe it will get moved to a newly created 4.2.2 forum?

[BirdOPrey5]

That looks like more than just a leftover phrase to me. You might want to report the mod to the admins and have them look at it.

Not a phrase, a template and code to get your email address. Not against the rules but as always mods are use at your own risk.

[Budget101]

I've experienced security issues with this mod enabled and would like to know what the point of this code is:
<script type="text/javascript">
(function ($) {
$(window).load(function() {
$('#aweber-form').submit(function() {
$(this).attr('action', 'http://www.aweber.com/scripts/addlead.pl');

if (!$('#it_email_1').val().length) {
alert('Please enter your email address.');
return false;
}

setTimeout(function() { window.location.href = '{vb:raw redirect}'; }, 1000);

Hi,

The problem I have is the "time" it posts. The time posted shows 2 - 3 hours before the time I actually posted it or the time I set for it to be posted. Yes, I have checked the my time on the site, etc. It still shows the posts 2 - 3 hours before that time.

Seems doubtful to me. No PHP files are uploaded. This is just a template modification.

What is your evidence?
