Notepad for user settings page

[Vitaly]

This is a simple user notepad, to store short texsts on "settings" page. It's collapseable and has autosave feature, like google docs.

If you used antialiasis's "Personal Notepad" mod for 3.7 - this one provides similar functions for 4.0, and automatically migrates data. I'm not shure, that "settings" location is now the best place for notepad. So, reasonable suggestions will be considered.

This mod is developped here http://github.com/rcdesign/vb-notepad . Patches are welcome.

Wil this save multiple notes and is there a way of setting the total text amount limit?

[Vitaly]

Wil this save multiple notes

I don't understand your question. This mod store textbox area. It's not used to replace a full-featured GTD tool.

is there a way of setting the total text amount limit?

What for? Many useless settings = bad idea.
Notepad size is limited to 50000 bytes. That's enougth.

Can this be set to private so it can be used as a scratch pad for ideas on writing articles for he front page of the VBCMS?

The install did not import saved text from the 3.7 Personal Notepad mod by antialiasis. Any ideas why? What did I do wrong?

[Vitaly]

You did nothing wrong. It was error in convertor code, sorry. If you still have Personal Notepad installed - uninstall my product and install again atttached one.

Or run such query (if no table db prefixes):

UPDATE usertextfield SET rcd_notepad = notepad

Thanks for the mod Vitaly
is there a way I can import the old data from VBpad..
the db table was usernotepad

maybe this ?

UPDATE usertextfield SET rcd_notepad = usernotepad

??
much appreciated

[Vitaly]

No. Please, show all VBpad table fields.

[Hippy]

[Vitaly]

Try this:

UPDATE usertextfield SET rcd_notepad = usernotepad.notes WHERE usertexfield.userid = usernotepad.userid

[Hippy]

fair enough...
once again thanks for everything

[javiperillas]

Is there any possibility of adding something like this but in the sidebar?

[Hippy]

Vitaly

in IE8 with compatibility mode on .. the text area blows off to the right..

any fix for this ?

thanks

image attached

[btlewand]

For some reason I'm getting an "X" on the collapsible icon. The icon properties show as "collapse_40b_collapsed.png" although the xml file seems to reference the proper location where the icon resides in the vbulletin images/buttons/ directory as "collapse_40b.png." Didn't see any special instructions for installation. What am I doing wrong?

[Hippy]

image is not where it's looking for it did you right click on that red X to see the URL of that image it's calling ?
anyway.. open rcd_notepad template..
find
<a class="collapse" id="collapse_rcd_notepad_div" href="#top"><img src="images/buttons/collapse_40b.png" alt="Collapse Notepad" /></a>

replace it with


<a class="collapse" id="collapse_rcd_notepad_div" href="#top"><img src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_button}/collapse{vb:raw vbcollapse.collapseimg_rcd_notepad}_40b.png" alt="Collapse Notpad" border="0" /></a>

this pulls the correct image for me in any style..;)

[btlewand]

Thanks Hippy. Works great.

Vitaly, can you please note if you do another release since this seems to work quite well.

Is there a way to Only get certain usergroups to use the notepad ?

[ramesh_umk3]

Possible

1) Goto this template rcd_notepad

first line add below code

<vb:if condition="in_array($bbuserinfo['usergroupid'], array(1,2))">

change your usergroupid accordingly

End line add this

</vb:if>


Mod works with 4.2.2 PL1 confirmed and handy features for my users thanks
