Hey clutch,

Ultimate one just released on FS.

[insaneoz]

Epic modification!

[giorgino]

Great mod... but your premium program is too expensive for me...
This light version is useless for me.

His VIP is worth the money though, it's 59 for all his plugins, themes and premium content. You also get way more for your money. I use forum slider and green seo themes ultimate, now this. Your crazy to say it's expensive!!

[Kolbi]

Seems to be a nice feature...

[giorgino]

All plugins and themes... but I need only this mod :)
However it's a problem for me... I understand that isn't his problem...

59 for this mod alone isn't expensive. This mod alone has changed the way users use my forum and that has value. I would've paid more

Try asking Facebook for their funcionality for 59, lmao!

I recently saw that DragonByte developed a similar modification... which is better? :)

[daveaite]

Hey all, thanks for the wonderful compliments. :)

[Manoel J?nior]

Friend, for what reason you are not also encodes for version 3.8.7? I like all your mods, but all are for the version 4.x

I would join with the Pro version

[EquinoxWorld]

I recently saw that DragonByte developed a similar modification... which is better? :)

2 different products to compare I'd say. Dragon Byte lite version is better than this lite version that I can say, as per the pro and ultimate versions, can't say but it looks like this one may take it.

[hugh_]

Nice modification but the lite version is too limited and pro version is too expensive regardless of the total value of the subscription...

[Trek]

Looks nice, but as the lite version only uses registered and admin usergroups, it's not worth testing for me as I don't use the registered usergroup for my members. Hopefully it continues to develop and add more notifications and options. Always good to see competition between products. =)

[InTeNsE-HuMoR]

Does this integrate with the current default notifications menu or does it add a separate menu beside it?

Also, could it be possible to add a notification for moderators to check the Mod CP when there are new items to moderate?

[GCC LLC]

Love the idea, but caused a noticeable lag.

Will there be likes and comments added to each update? To make it more facebook like? That would be all I still require to move my social network off of Social Engine.

The issue I see with this is it might be "too much." Moderation notifications aren't as critical to building a community as notifications for users using your community.


any help please

What URL structure are you using. What mods are you using. Theres a lot of variables into why it might not work for you.

[GCC LLC]

Update seemed to help with the lag issue but now I'm not seeing any notifications.

I see a number, but when you click it it just shows the scrolling bar (loading) and nothing ever shows up.

(I do use vbseo as well)

The issue I see with this is it might be "too much." Moderation notifications aren't as critical to building a community as notifications for users using your community.
For moderators it is very helpful to see how many tasks they have in their queue. Currently its all mingled in with a plethora of other notifications. Especially on active boards. My staff often has 50-120 notifications. Separating Moderator notifications will speed up moderation and that is important for building a community.

[daveaite]

I've got the product in the header but nothing shows - no number, no nothing.

Updated the .xml. However the usergroups are locked for now. In a future lite version they will be unlocked.

[daveaite]

Updated - this version currently has the usergroups on 2 & 6, a future lite version will have configuration of all usergroups.

If all of those were added then I would buy the premium version.

Needs to be an option to have multiple responses condensed. In a busy forum you have large amounts of responses in a short time and the pop up becomes useless. If you had a option where it shows multiple responses to the same thread in a single line it would be better.

Examples: User A, User B, User, C responded to "Sample Thread"

If not you come back 12 hours later and have 93 notifications. Nobody wants to sift through them all.

You could use the Avatar to the latest post or first.

Thats how facebook does it.

Thanks for the support. All requests are noted.

I was just having the exact same conversation with my staff. Our conclusions was that the notification needs to be dynamic, so that it changes with every new reply
3 users replied to your thread Some random discussionListing all the users that replied becomes difficult if a large number of users reply.

A feature request:

An overview of notifications not on profile, but on a usercp page. Preferable a tabbed content page with tabs for:
- New content, including subscriptions, replies, quotes & @username
- Messages (PM & VM)
- Reputation comments
- Moderation

Profile is already too full and other members should not see notifications about a users messages.

I am running it on my server perfectly fine and I have a 30k sized forum. It does use some resources as it is programmed in Ajax and requires to check for new entries in your database at a time you set

2.- Can't show non "latin" languages, just like japanese, chinese, etc. On UTF-8 or ISO-8859-1

3.- Cant' show any "latin" language symbols (??????????????, etc) on UTF-8 forums, have collation problems.

4.- The template have a css problem when you click the "world" to see a new notificaction.

First off, have you tested it on a forum that doesn't use UTF-8. We have said many times that it does not work with Foreign language websites.

Second of all, we have a lite version for testing before buying. It is very similar to the Ultimate version minus a handful of features. So if you did try out the lite, and you liked it, then why would you complain about the ultimate version.


Edit: We actually just tested it with UTF-8, and that will cause a performance lag. That explains your performance graphs.

I didn't see any note about that on your site http://forum-skins.com/plugins/forum-skins-notifications/ and there's no any warning about to use UTF-8 forums or foreing language.

2. huh? Where is your lite version on your site? The first time that I see your product is on your site, damn google fooled me and I wasted my money.


Edit: We actually just tested it with UTF-8, and that will cause a performance lag. That explains your performance graphs.

OMG!!!!

Are you really sure you're not using UTF-8? :eek:

Because your product create two UTF-8 tables expressly, and have to encode to UTF-8 before to write on database... so that mean you are using a UTF-8 DB on ISO-8859-1 vB front. -> too BAD

If this is true. Your "testing" forum have a incorrect vBulletin installation. If you're using ISO-8859-1 on front, your database would be latin1 (latin1_sweedish_ci). If you're using UTF-8 on vB front, your database would be UTF-8 too (uft8_general_ci) and tell vBulletin you want to connect to UTF-8 database on your config.php

It shouln't be my problem I paid for a "gold" product and it is not. So please consider my refund or stop my suscription until you have a REAL reliable product.

Saludos.

[daveaite]

Could you please support UTF8 so we can buy it.


Hey Hareth, We will try to support UTF-8 in future installations.

Seriously? Forum-Skins.com Notifications works perfectly. Stop trying to taint it. I have it on multiple forums working simultaneously on one server. And we get anywhere from 300k-900k visitors a month. And if you don't believe me, create an account on BuyPoe.com. I urge that you test it out. It is the same exact modification that is on FS.com, no tweaks, or special template edits. Its' a right out of the box installation

Can others describe how the mod is working on the their forums please?

[insaneoz]

ummm... yeahhhhhhh it works really, really AWESOME on my site. I would gladly vouch for daveaite and his team as this is one of the best products, ever.

I think ryhosukee must work for a competitor of yours. David clearly states that it doesn't work for UTF-8 and foreign symbols etc. Why are you giving him such a hard time? you didnt do your homework and your blaming it on him.

And his site offers way more than just the notifications mod. he can't refund you because he's given you everything for one price, and you already have access. I am currently a vip member and it is one of the best things i've spent my money on. cheers.

to dave: ignore that guy. keep doing your thing.

So are you using UTF-8 on your database, huh? Because your code doesn't lie. I fix the UTF-8 and foreing problem just removing your "workaround", and having a good vBulletin installation. So HOW can you say that using UTF-8 cause performance issues?

http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/2612/workarounda.png

I'm testing now with a ISO-8859-1 vbulletin installation. I will show you my results.

His VIP is worth the money though, it's 59 for all his plugins, themes and premium content. You also get way more for your money. I use forum slider and green seo themes ultimate, now this. Your crazy to say it's expensive!!

I just looked at his themes (go green, n his others) this is vb.org no where else your going to find this many bad as skins in one place/plug-ins ect. so his other features haven't sold me. But i must agree with your other comment, if the asking price is 59 bucks. For this Plug-in alone (if you care about your community/website) this plug-in is a GREAT and very awesome mod. 59 bucks for a lifetime of use..... Yeah worth it to me too.

[iDHKHCM]

Tried the lite version on my dev environment, nothing happens when I post replies to the threads from another account.

did you get this working? same thing for me. im on 4.1.5 pl1 added everything correctly, but on skin that i added it on, i see no change. Only thing i can think of that another notification is interfering

Pues la soluci?n la he hecho, pero s?lo para los problemas de cotejamiento con la base de datos, al parecer el estimado daveaite ha probado su producto en una instalaci?n de vBulletin con la base de datos en UTF-8, pero con el idioma del foro en ISO-8859-1, vamos, un t?pico error de novato.

Sobre el rendimiento, sinceramente creo que el producto "funciona as?", cosa que es bastante desagradable, aunque podr?as configurar el tiempo entre consultas que ajax hace, ahora lo tengo a cada 120 segundos, y s?lo tengo el doble de uso de CPU en horas punta... ya ser?a cosa que el programador haga las modificaciones pertinentes para intentar atenuar el problema. Eso de que s?lo en los foros UTF-8 ocurre el "lag" es una soberana tonter?a, y m?s a?n cuando el propio programador usa su producto en una base de datos UTF-8, o sea, cae en contradicci?n.

Lo que me parece una guarrada al momento de comprar su producto no existian esas restricciones para UTF-8 o soporte de idiomas "raros", ya cuando le echo en cara ese detalle para que me haga la devoluci?n, reci?n publica las restricciones y me dice "ah? est?n", pff, una pasada.

Just added it to a forum and it worked for the first reply to an existing thread. But, we're attempting new threads and responses to them and nothing is displaying.

Is there an issue that we should look into or some 'FAQs' on this mod?

Also, when clicking on "Show All Notifications", the tab on the profiles is broken and not displaying correctly. The 'custom style' CSS is not displaying on the manual (http://forum-skins.com/plugins/forum-skins-notifications/forum-skins-notifications-manual/)

Any suggestions?

Ya, it'd be really great not to have to spend 60$ for one mod just to get updates for 3 months. I will never have a need for any of the other plugins nor do I find any of the themes listed suitable for the site I run.

I understand the need to be compensated for the work, but $60 is just a waste of money when the lite version doesn't even work properly.

Very nice, I am looking forward to test this out.

I wonder if this will work well with my custom template: www.47r-squad.com

[thecore762]

Ok, I need to get rid of the white box, I want it transparet so it doesn't look this bad on my template
Also where would you suggest me putting this?

see attachment.
Putting it after {vb:rawphrase welcome_x_link_y, {vb:raw bbuserinfo.username}, {vb:link member, {vb:raw bbuserinfo}}}

Is not looking good.

[daveaite]

Its' suppose to be transparent. Your missing world.png image for that. Try putting that image from our zip images/misc/world.png in your themes respective location

If you want, I can show you if you send me an admin account & ftp via pm

[downloadfound]

I can't get this to work in 4.1.9/// I uploaded the files, installed the product and modified my templates and nothing happens.

[daveaite]

If you don't see anything, try taking another look at your header template and make sure you edited it correctly. Also make sure your editing the theme that your using.

[Sage Knight]

Would this work with the DB tech tagging plugin?

And is this resource intensive i.e suitable for forums on shared hosting packages?

[DjEddie]

Thanks for the update, adding the PM into it makes it much better!

Question: .. Is there a way to move the notification bit to where the NAVBAR is .. ie. on the same line as HOME .. FORUM .. etc .. ?

[morrow]

Are there any screenshots / samples of what the ultimate version offers? I'd like to see it in action.

[Jakub03]

The file Forum-Skins Notifications.xml is not inside. So I can't do . Upload Forum-Skins Notifications.xml to Admincp > Plugins and Products > Manage Plugins

Well I have the same problem. The world.png icon is not displayed and in the add.css code I can?t see any reference to that icon :S

Sorry for my bad english ...

I had a guy from the outside come in a optimize it as best as possible. The more people using this version and giving feedback the better.

The .xml is in the do not upload folder.

I believe you can move it whereever you want. Just place the variable in a different location :) Haven't tested this fully but in theory it should work right.

[pdtan]

I installed on vBulletin 4.1.9, and then must munually edit my template 'header' to show 'World' icon. Although I choose turn off default vbulletin notifications, but it seems not to work. One more, its style is very bad

I love the idea of this mod and would like to give it a run, but the description of compatibility isn't exactly clear:

It is not compatibile with UTF-8. (Foreign language/multi-language websites)

Update 12/30/2011 - v.3.0 Lite
Update 8/31/2011 - v2.0 Lite

Note the parts in Red- at the top in Big letters it states it is NOT compatible with UTF-8, then at the bottom in small letters, it states that it IS compatible.

Which is it?

[Budget101]

I 2nd the question.

Will this or will this not work with UTF-8 (I'm not 100% if that is what I use or not, but future could always change).

[Toorak Times]

Hi Guys, tried to hit the installed button, but apperently I do not have enough permissions, got me! Any way I have installed this marvellous product, now all I have to do is figure out how to get it up.

Cheers

If you don't see anything, try taking another look at your header template and make sure you edited it correctly. Also make sure your editing the theme that your using.

I have a problem with this mod too. It says to edit the "header" template and i couldnt find any of the text in the instructions to look for in the template. What i found was that all of that is actually in the "navbar" template. So i followed the instructions, made the template edits and nothing happened...

[Noerenberg]

i have the problem the note show not the usename and the forum where is it post

Okay I figured it out. I have a custom skin that moved all the links to the navbar template, deleted that and moved it all to the header and it works now.

Marked as installed, nice modification. When I actually have more than a couple users, (hehe) I will definitely purchase the ultimate.

[GhettoTech]

I'm having an issue with actually getting notifications to show up... I get a notification when someone sends me a PM but not when someone posts in my thread or posts a reply. Please help.. I'm running the light version.

This is a CSS issue. You can tweak the colors of your links and the backgrounds of notifcations by changing the values you added in additional.css

[daveaite]

I 2nd the question.

Will this or will this not work with UTF-8 (I'm not 100% if that is what I use or not, but future could always change).

The latest version is compatible with UTF-8 and multi-language/vbulletin compatible. One of the major updates in the latest one.
