Quote Notification via PM

[AcidX]

Quote Notification




Description: This plugin will add a "Quote Notification" option for users to select. If selected, your board users will receive a notification by PM whenever someone quotes them in a post.


Installation:
Import the attached product XML file (product-quotenotification.xml);More settings:
If you want to change the content of the PM that gets sent, the phrases are quotenotify_subject and quotenotify_message;
The email notification has a separate phrase, quotenotify_emailmessage;
If you want to change the Profile Field options, find the "Quote Notification" field in your User Profile Field Manager in the ACP;
If you're not sure exactly what you're doing, you better leave these alone.Warning: DO NOT change the title of the Profile Field from "Quote Notification", or the values from "Private Message", "Email", and "No" or this hack will not work.



User settings:
Your forum users can set their Quote Notification prefferences via User CP > General Settings > under Messaging & Notification.
This hack is a port of Krohf (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=112498)'s modification for vb 3.5.
Since many people might find it handy on their boards, I decided to publish it for 4.0.


If you installed the product please mark as installed, so you can receive future update notifications. If you want to help develop this product further, please post your suggestions on the thread, or share your ideas with me via PM.

Looks cool.

Though when I tried to install, I received;

But any chance you could make it just show up in USER CP like a Thank notification?

Sorry guys, I've posted an updated version of the product file. Try installing now :)

wow

cool mod hanks for it
i will test it

[valdet]

That's a very nice hack. It even works on vB 3.6.x and 3.7.x, although its settings are blank.

Anyway, can you please let us know how to set the PM or Email option as default. Currently only few users have selected one of those options other than "No". I tried changing the order in Profile Field manager, but as you said it does not work afterwards.

I appreciate if you tell us how to make PM or Email as default option for this incredible hack.

*happily clicks install*

* Go to User Profile Fields > User Profile Field Manager
* Locate the "Quote Notification" field, and click "Edit"
* In the big "Options" textbox, switch "Yes" and "No" so that "Yes" is first. This will make "Yes" the default option.
* Make sure the "Set Default" option is set to "Yes" as well
* Save your changes

The mod will still work if you change the order, but it will not work if you change or try to translate the entire name of the options. In case you want to translate the options, there's another way of doing that without causing the mod to malfunction. But you will be required to edit the product file before importing it to your forum... If someone needs to do that, I'll post a little tutorial.

Thank you for this great mod. Working on 4.0.3 but this solution for default option is not working. I need to have the default option "Private Message", would you please work on it?

Thank you.

Thank you.

To do that, erase "yes" and "email" from the options field and just leave "Private Message" and "No". But leave Private Message on top. That will put PM as the default and "no" as an option that people could choose if they don't like the feature.

Thanks for the Mod AcidX. Just a suggestion. On one of the older versions of this mod, instead of having the quote notification sent to your PM, you could just click on "user cp" and it would be below subscribed threads and above Latest Rep. Any chance you could do this again? My Members loved it and you wouldnt have to get a ton of PM's.

[Breathex]

I do that and "Private Message" option shows as the default option in members control panels, but it's not working. I think it needs some changes in xml file.

Yeah, it's not working for me either. Please fix! :D

[AcidX]

Obviously the default option works only for new members that registered on your forum. Old members still have to Save their settings in their User CP.

[doopz]

Does this keep forum / user permissions in mind?
What if one of the moderators post a forum quote from a user, does this ueer get notified about it?

Can this option be build in?

Everyone needs this but no solution yet.

[Breathex]

Any progress?

[AngelBlue]

Everyone needs this but no solution yet.

Add plugin:

<plugin active="1" executionorder="1">
<title>Quote Notification Cron</title>
<hookname>cron_script_cleanup_hourly</hookname>
<phpcode><![CDATA[
$vbulletin->db->query_write("
UPDATE `" . TABLE_PREFIX . "userfield` SET field" . $vbulletin->options['quotenotify_field'] . "='Private Message' where field" . $vbulletin->options['quotenotify_field'] . " = '';
");
]]></phpcode>
</plugin>


Go to admincp/cronadmin.php?do=modify - and run task "Hourly Cleanup".

You may also want to re-order the options so that "Private Message" is first in the list (using the "Profile Field Manager"), and be sure "Set Default" is on. Don't change any of the text (except for re-ordering the 3 possible settings), though, or the mod will stop working.

Haven't installed because of this.

What I would suggest to AcidX to do something similar to what the User Tagging mod does... where you can disable/enable this feature per forum in the ACP. That way, you can just disable this feature for any Private forums.

One of my forum members reported a problem when she tried quoting someone who's inbox was full, unfortunately she didn't save a copy of the error message, but she said it looked like a database error and the name of the Quote Notification was in the message, is this a known issue with this mod?

Excellent! It's installed!

Yup. I got that too, even when the usergroup has the right to 'ignore quota'. Nothing you can do except increase the quota and tell your members to delete PM's regularly. Other than that it's a great mod. Thanks.

Installed on 4.08 btw

[LordMike]

I've installed it, now I was wondering, for me it was set to NO when installed.

Where can I change this so people get this as a standard option?

At the moment each member has to set this to yes? and how about new registrations?

[Zombo]

how instead of pm notification, just straight up notification?

I was wondering these exact two things. It is the only matter stopping me to install the plugin.

Other than that is an excellent idea!

Please answer our concerns!!

Go to your phpmyadmin and check the userfield table, there is a field where you have to put "Private Message"

[david fernandez]

i have this installed and set to private message but nothing happens when sombody quotes me...any idea?

How do we add the quote notifications via notifications?

[Danny M]

PM notification seems to work fine for me, but when I select "email", I don't get an email when someone quotes me. Anyone else have the same problem?

[downloadfound]

Nevermind, it works awesome. Great mod.

I'm looking at modifying it though. The title of the private message or email should contain the thread title! So, it should read something like, "UserXXX has replied to your post in thread XXX"

[bigandy]

why not just set "private message" as default value and amend the code as:


if value <> email & no
then
pm
end-if

if value = email
then
email
end-if


i think most of users are happy with these pms, no need to ask them to set it one by one.

[The Vegan Forum]

So... there's no Admin CP section where we can define what the default for new users (per User Group) should be?

if value <> email & no
then
pm
end-if

if value = email
then
email
end-if

Where should this code be entered, bigandy?
And how would such a change affect users with no PB abilities?

notification by PM works fine, tried email whitout sucess

anyone more have that problem?

Hi,

I installed this modification on 4.1.8. It is not working at all. I do not receive any PM when my quote is posed.

Also under the User CP : the Quote Notification by default had been set to "No". I changed it to "PM" but still it doesn't work.

How can I make the quote notification "Private Message" by default for all users?

Thanks

Thank you....

[SpottySocks]

It works perfectly fine, only thing is in the PM it uses 'he' regardless of whether the member is female - can this be changed?

[DemOnstar]

In your adminCP, go to languages and phrases/Search in Phrases/ and put in the text

has recently quoted you in a post he made

This will bring up what you are looking to change..
I had the same problem but worked it out..it is not perfect but it rarely is..

I changed mine to has recently quoted you in a post they made.

Did the job...

[Dike]

This plugin is compatible with vBulletin 3.8.x version, is there?

[austind]

This is great. Thank you. It would be even better if as an Admin i could just set all my users to this by default. If they dont like it they can go in and uncheck the box on their own.

You would instead like to have it merely give notification in the navbar.

Right so far?

Correct.

[Max Taxable]

Correct.Okay what do you want to happen when they click that notifier? There's still got to be a way to find out who quoted you in what post, otherwise what's the point of the Mod. Right?

So that if you have a notify that three people quoted you, what should happen on click?

The person gets a notification alert as shown in the example below. Said person clicks the link, and they are shown their post and the thread where it came from, as well as giving said person the direct link to the quoted post.

[BasicGreatGuy]

But if there exists more than one quote?
Then there would be multiple quote alerts (I suppose) unless the quotes all came from the same thread. Then, there would probably be one quote alert from someone using the multi-quote feature from the same thread.

[mokujin]

Quick edit to this hack to working in vb 4.2

1. Go to the admincp -> User Profile Field Manager -> See what Quote Notification field ID is (field5, field6, etc.)

2. Then edit field Options, change
No
Email
Private Message
To:

Private Message
Email
No

3. Go to Maintenance -> Execute SQL Query and run this query:

UPDATE userfield SET field5 = 'Private Message'

Don't forget to change fieldID and your table prefix.

Then all users will get a quote notification via PM.

Users can change the settings in User Settings -> General Settings -> Quote Notification.

Hope it helps .

Something like this (from realgm.com PHPBB forums) would be ideal for quote notifications: http://i.imgur.com/ZweWbLN.jpg

We seem to have come across a slight problem with it that you may be able to help with? We had an instance yesterday with an annoying member and we were talking about him in our Private Mod onlys forum that others can't see or enter...Well one of our mods put a quote of the member into a thread in the private forum and because the guy had notifications turned on he was able to access the Mod forum and read the post about him. It was only the fact a mod clicked on his profile and saw he was in there we found out. He admitted during a chat that he was taken directly to the mod forum when he was notified he had been quoted.I hope that makes sense. Any ideas people? Thanks in advance.

Sorry for the late response! In the AdminCP under the User Profile Fields on the bottom, there's an option for the Quote Notification. On my forum, I only have the option for users to select either private messages or off entirely.

So, it'll look like this:

"Private Message
No"

In the UserCP (settings), under General Settings, users can select the two options that I have given them.

Thanks. I just did a little troubleshooting and was easily able to get it to show in the User CP under "Edit Profile" but not under "Options: Messaging / Notifications". Then I noticed that if you want it to show in Messaging/Notifications, there's some ingo about "used in conjunction with template conditionals to create additional options for your users."

What fresh hell is that lol? Is that easy enough to do? I'm no dummy but I can't write any conditionals and would need solid instructions for that. I hate to impose on you but do you know how I could do that?

It's showing under Messaging/Notifications. THANK YOU. I have no idea why it wasn't before but it is now without fiddling with any template conditionals. Thanks for your help.

[Impromptu]

Great Mod.

VB 4.2 - works
Can make PM as the default - works
Can do SQL to make existing members quoting - works

Nice work.

[Impromptu]

Is there a way, you can set the number of characters or word need to reply to a quote before it is activated..

ie the reply must be over 20 words before the notification gets activated..

so a simple, 'well done' will not trigger a notification...

[WxP]

How to active it for all users ??? Because i need to learn all my users how to active it ! Thank you

[Mandushi]

works with vb 3.8.9 ?

[Mandushi]

Any answer ?

[Phaedrus]

But if there exists more than one quote?

Then it would show 3 quotes, when clicked it would take you to your userCP where the links to those quotes would be displayed like notifications of Thanks/Groans or User Reputation.

I would set it so only the last 10 quoted posts show in the UserCP and you get notified by using the notifications rather than filling up everybody's PM box.

[Mandushi]

This plugins work with 3.8.9 ?
