Aggiunto il plugin mi sono scordato

[Skyrider]

Is there any way you can create an entire mod of this, so you can add specific text for specific usergroup(s)?

[Scanu]

Yes i can but this will take me some days and i actually work at other mods

[Dr.osamA]

[Erica1977]

Awesome this is going to be a useful mod Thanks! :)

[sweetpotato]

It would be wonderful if warning message support multilanguage

[Scanu]

Hey sweetpotato the message can be dit by the pca option :)

[CharlieDelta]

It doesn't seem to be working for me. I have set up a test account and have not confirmed the email but not seeing the warning.
I have triple checked all the settings. Hmm....strange.

[sweetpotato]

Hey sweetpotato the message can be dit by the pca option :)

Thanks, I would like it can support user choosing language. For example, when user choose english it will show english message and if user choose french language it have a french message like vbulletin langguage.

Thank for a nice mod.

[Scanu]

It doesn't seem to be working for me. I have set up a test account and have not confirmed the email but not seeing the warning.

Charlie maybe the problem is in the id can you please tell me what's the id of your usergroup "users awaiting email confirmation" ?

[Scanu]

Thanks, I would like it can support user choosing language. For example, when user choose english it will show english message and if user choose french language it have a french message like vbulletin langguage.

Thank for a nice mod.

Yes i can do this, i will add the phrases in the next version :)

[maxie]

vb 4.1.2

[Scanu]

I don't know why.. work great on my board... i will check the code

[maxie]

as CharlieDelta on his post https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=2246473&postcount=13


my problem is the same with him

[Scanu]

ok i will recheck the plugin sorry for the inconvenience

[Scanu]

Guys for me and some other users work perfectly i've tried this product many times to many vbulletin and works, sorry but i can' help you with this issue :( Check all the options (maybe is a problem of cookie) try to choose no to the question "warn is closable?" this is all that i can do for help you

[maxie]

my problem solve,

[Scanu]

Fantastic what was the problem? :)

[CharlieDelta]

Charlie maybe the problem is in the id can you please tell me what's the id of your usergroup "users awaiting email confirmation" ?
Sorry Tecnowii I was away for a few days. The id is 3.

I have tried everything, cleared cache, cleared cookies, used a different computer and I can not get it to work for the life of me.:confused:

Hopefully Maxie can tell us how they got it working.

[Stefan118]

Had no problems at all at vB 4.1.5 PL1

Works great, only it would be nice if the "popup" would appear also on the main forum, and not only in the subforums where you can post your message.

If it appears instantly after logging in, it would be perfect.

[Scanu]

the warn is in all the pages except the CMS

[Stefan118]

Nope...
I have CMS dissabled, and the warn is indeed on all pages EXEPT the main forum screen.

[HMBeaty]

Works fine for me, except for the option The warn will be reappears if a user reload the page?.

Even with this set to no, when the user goes to another page, it pops back up. (I've tested this by changing the usergroupid to 6 for administrators)

[Stefan118]

Tecnowii has solved my issue :up:

This is not a problem of the product. the code works try to use another browser or another computer

[CharlieDelta]

Got it working!

[Scanu]

great! how do you?

[CharlieDelta]

I changed all$template_hook['headinclude_javascript']

to
$template_hook['navbar_end']

then I changed the hook location from "global_start" to "global_bootstrap_init_complete"

[ForceHSS]

You need to check your grammar in the confirmation text box

[Hareth]

How can I change font-family to tahoma?

thank you

[Scanu]

You need to check your grammar in the confirmation text box

Yes i'm italian can you help me?

[Scanu]

How can I change font-family to tahoma?

thank you

in the text you can use html so
<font face="tahoma">text</font>

[Skyrider]

Is there any way you can create an entire mod of this, so you can add specific text for specific usergroup(s)?
^ Still waiting for this one! :D

Also. Uninstalled. Regardless the setting that people should not see the box again after closing, they keep seeing it.

[Shadow09]

I changed all$template_hook['headinclude_javascript']to
$template_hook['navbar_end']then I changed the hook location from "global_start" to "global_bootstrap_init_complete"


Thanks. This fixed for me too.

[Scanu]

Mod that you are looking for will be the same of this i have just to change some code and phrases, actually i can't. I don't know why in your forum the warn reappears the option "Cookie on/off | The warn will reappears if the guest reload the page?" must set to NO

[K!nG]

I upload the XML and it doesn't do anything at all on my forum. :(

[Shadow09]

k!ng Try this fix >> https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=2250208&postcount=33

[MyPeSePe]

installed thanks

[smirkley]

Works, after the fix above to make it show.

I like the way this workes, and use the one for guests too.

For some reason the x box to close the window, the x appears twice for some reason.

[K!nG]

The above fixed messed up my access to admincp :( i don't know what to do now . This is the message that i get.

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING in /home/dxxxxxxxx/public_html/xxxxxxxxxxxx.com/global.php(29) : eval()'d code on line 818
vBulletin Message

Unable to add cookies, header already sent.
File: /home/dxxxxxx/public_html/xxxxxxxxx.com/global.php(29) : eval()'d code
Line: 818

[K!nG]

Well for now i got a way around to log in to my admincp by disabling all mods globally and then i logged in my admincp and uninstall this product. If i get a solution for the above issue well & good and if not than i guess i live without it :)

[Scanu]

I'm thinking that you have don't edit the product correctly i will update the product with these fixes tonight

[K!nG]

Hi Tecnowii,
Did u get a chance to update it or not yet ???

[Scanu]

I've noticed many bugs on the mod since now i've fixed the bug of K!ng you can found a fixed version here (http://www.mediafire.com/?m36cn1t8zofua3j) but there are many other bugs and i'm working to fix these sorry for the long wait :(

[Scanu]

Another updated version can be found here (http://www.mediafire.com/?fc1rs579mo1vf32) fixed some bugs with the close button, now i have to fix the cookie option

[kevius]

great ! thanks !!!

[tarball]

3.8.X version available ?

[Scanu]

Not yet :(

[K!nG]

Hi Tecnowii,
Thanks a lot for upgrading the product. I downloaded the 2nd fix and its working fine so far on my site. Thanks for keeping it up to date :)

[Scanu]

No problem just give more days for the cookie's problem

[pantani]

Works fine here with new fix 4.1.7 ;)

[Scanu]

Please if you like this mod nominate it for MOTM

[karel1985]

Scanu,

Can you include also the options to change background etc (CSS options)...
Just same option as in your other mod:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=270070

Its would be nice, if you make similar mods, that you include the same options.

Suggestion: for board that have a custom usergroup of the Awaiting Email Confirmation, option to enter the usergroupID

[Scanu]

Well that's what i wish too (right words?) i will work again to this plugin soon :)

[kfyonur]

usefull mod.

[mry]

very very usefull...

[Scanu]

2.0 version available! As Karel request I coded many more options as in my other mod SCANU's Guet Warn! Now the css options and the other options are separated. Thanks for your support!

[1320Nation]

What is the preferred method for previewing setting changes to the message box?

[Scanu]

Well that's a little hard to implement that on vbulletin, you have to try and see the result in a test account. But if you want i will try to do that.

[1320Nation]

Well that's a little hard to implement that on vbulletin, you have to try and see the result in a test account. But if you want i will try to do that.

I really only asked that question cause even though it's nice to have the upgraded additions, it is rather difficult to see the changed settings. I have another mod installed that allows me as an admin to log into a user's account as them. As long as that user is in the set usergroup "Users Awaiting Email Confirmation" I can see the setting changes to the mod. However, that is not that norm, and not everyone will be setup with that option.

[CharlieDelta]

Great job!

However, that is not that norm, and not everyone will be setup with that option.

I really don't understand you, if you asked me the best way to see the change at the style of the mod so you can make a test account with 3 as usergroup id then you will see the warn style if you did not asked this question please say that in other words

[Scanu]

Great job!

Thank you Charlie :)

[karel1985]

Thanks for the Update Scanu !

Any suggestion how i can exclude index.php from showing this warning?

[Scanu]

Simple download this modified file in the attachments i just added 1 or 2 line of code :)

[karel1985]

Simple download this modified file in the attachments i just added 1 or 2 line of code :)

Great ! Can i adapt this also for your other mod? (for guest to register?)

[Scanu]

If you're able to do it yes otherwise i will help you

[Scanu]

Karel find this in the xml of Guest Warn

if (in_array(THIS_SCRIPT, array('register')))

And replace with

if (in_array(THIS_SCRIPT, array('register','index')))


Then reupload the product via pca

Thanks, however i am using vbadvanced for index, so when i changed this as you said, then it was still visible on the index but not anymore on the forum index...

But i found it :-) the name for my vbadvanced index was adv_index so this worked !

Also, if you want to change this without reinstalling this mod (you lose the translation and settings...), its better to change in Plugin Manager

[Scanu]

Yes as you said if you use vbadvanced index the script is adv_index

I've updated the English in this file. The explanation provided is a little longer than the original, but friendlier and clearer on explaining the process.

Hello username, if you reading this, it means your one last step away from becoming a member. Please check your e-mail for your e-mail conformation letter to activate your account. You will not be able to reply or post until you confirm your account. If after a while you can't find your e-mail confirmation letter in your inbox, please double-check your spam box as it could mistakenly get lost there. Finally if you still after waiting do not receive your confirmation e-mail, you can Click here to be sent a new one.

No sleep makes for poor thinking. LOL :p

This corrects my typing error and lack of sleep.

[Alan_SP]

Only problem I see is that this shows only on forum pages, not in CMS and other pages. Is there a way to make it visible on all pages?

Also, please include in CSS option to manually decide how wide is notice to users waiting email confirmation. Now I need to change it manually (I use pretty long text).

You could add this link: profile.php?do=editpassword It leads to options for changing email address, as some users give wrong email address and with this link they could change it and try confirm another one.

Anyway, pretty useful, especially if it will work on all pages.

[Scanu]

Thanks for your suggestion is appreciated! However, this will work in all page as Guest Warn :)

[Alan_SP]

I don't understand what you mean when you say it will work on all pages as guest warn? I use this mod too, and that mod checks for register script. If someone is unregistered, it provides way that it's visible everywhere.

But this mod works only on forum and profile as far as I know. If user who waits email confirmation goes else (CMS, Blog, etc) he doesn't see message.

[Scanu]

I was having this problem on Guest Warn, it was'nt showing on CMS, but with the update i've fixed that bug so in the next version i'll fix the bug.

Sorry for so long waiting update but i'm working in a product to add the Xenforo's login bar on Vbulletin

Looking forward to it :)

[thecore762]

Hi Andrea, I want to report this to you, when you click the link and it takes you to the confirmation page to re-send email, the box doesn't disappear and the box covers the send button.
Usually this can be confusing for new members.

Also in the alert this feature should be added in case user is not receiving emails to ISP due to emails that can be blocked, there should be an option to change email address to use a different email if they are having issues receiving emails.

There should be a link to this in the pop up box: http://www.yourdomain.com/profile.php?do=editpassword

[Scanu]

The warning is hiding the button you should move the box by setting the options in the pca
Regarding the link thanks this is usefully i will put it in the default text of the nex version :)

[Alan_SP]

Already added suggestion for link. :)

Anyway, in form I suggested it's universal link, you don't need to enter your domain info, just put it in as any other href link. :up:

[fizzow]

Hi,

Thank you for this mod. Just what I've been looking for.

But I noticed that the warning is still appear when the user just activate their account via email.

The warning still pop in the page where this vBulletin message appear :

Thank you, <username>. Your registration is now complete.

You may now proceed to edit your Profile in order to fill in additional personal details about yourself, or you could modify your Options to customize your browsing experience of this site. Bla bla bla....

How to fix this?

[alhidaya]

Hello,

Thank you it s ok for vb 4.1.0.0 Beautiful Work

Is what we can put an image instead of a colored background ?

Peux t on avoir plus de choix sur les couleurs ?

Thank you Scanu, I m happy to found this hack... Nice

[Scanu]

If you are good on css coding you can change the style in the xml file or directly from the pca in the plugin (there's just one plugin of this mod)

Thank you very much...

Very Nice !!!!

Scanu,

[Maccrob]

Sorry, but what is the reason to use this mod, when we can configure a Notices Manager (make a notice for "User awaiting confirmation"), and get the same result

[Scanu]

This is a fast and beatiful way to do this if you don't know css and html code and you can't get the same effect with the vbulletin original warning system. Feel try to put position:fixed and seee what happens :)

[TeamSempoi]

warn not show
i set it correct
but warn still not showing
please help

Vbulletin 4.1.10
also use : SCANU's Warning to guest

thanks

[Scanu]

are you sure to put the right id of users awaiting email confirmation?

[TeamSempoi]

yes i sure about that...

[Scanu]

try to put the id of admins group (by default 1) and check if you see it

[TeamSempoi]

its same
use all id but still not show..

[Dragaon]

There's probably not a whole lot you can do about proper grammar, however running spell check on the language phrases before releasing a mod would be helpful.

Nice mod, tagged.

[Scanu]

I don't remember if i was on Mac or pc when i made this mod but actually Mac spell check helps me with lastest mods, if you found errors please let me know.

Hello

It does not work anymore since version 4.2.0 vbulletin. Is what you can do an update.

thank you

[CharlieDelta]

Hello

It does not work anymore since version 4.2.0 vbulletin. Is what you can do an update.

thank you

Working fine for me on 4.2

[Disco_Stu]

I installed this for 4.2 but it did not work at all. No message was displayed. I even set my computer date two days forward and set the number of days between displays to 1 and it still did nothing.

Also, there are several references in this mod to external url's (which I did not care for) even though there is no mention of external content on the mod description. One reference was for the closing button graphic and I saw another when I was uninstalling the product.

Because my web site is still in the development phase I had the luxury of restoring my database without losing any visitor data so I did that as a precaution.

[gremrock]

Great mod

Thanks

[lovevn]

Hello
Can anyone edit this mod to work with user does not have any posts?

[alhidaya]

I installed this for 4.2 but it did not work at all. No message was displayed.

MMMMEEEEE TTTTTTOOOOOO

Please can you Uptade for vb 4.2.0

[deverill2010]

Is this not working on 4.2 then?

[Scanu]

I don't think. I'm going to ireland for 15 days, when i will back i will update all of my products (including Xenforo Login Panel)

[Bob_R]

I set myself up for Instant Email Notification to keep track of this thread.

I dig this mod and will install it but not until it's ready for version 4.2 which I have.

[Stefan118]

I have installed 4.2 and this mod works fine!

[Scanu]

An update is coming soon it will fix almost every problems and it's going to be clearer and with less code

[RedTurtle]

An update is coming soon it will fix almost every problems and it's going to be clearer and with less code

Looking forward to it!

[Scanu]

- 2.1
- Re-written the mod
- vBulletin 4.2 support
- Fixed all problems
- Now there isn't chaotic code and the the code is shorter and clearer
- The mod now uses a better way to edit templates
- Added the fadeOut JQuery effect, now it looks more elegant

Updated! Now it's compatible with vBulletin 4.2

[sticky]

This newer version isn't better. I can't make it so the user can't close the box or edit the text. Older versions were better...

[Kitch87]

There isn't an option for me to chose the ID of users, how can I chose the ID of user?

[Scanu]

Yes it is in the options in the pca
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=134215&d=1320349810

[Kitch87]

Thanks for quick reply, It is not there, all the other options are but not that one:(

[Scanu]

Can you take a screenshot of the options?

[Kitch87]

Here :)

[Scanu]

Mmmh strange maybe i removed that option in the last update but i don't even remember lol
Anyway search in the xml this line

if ($vbulletin->options['wuaec_active'] && is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo, 3)){

And change 3 with the id of the usergroup you want the warn is shown
Then upload again the xml

[Kitch87]

Cheers mate, that worked a charm ;)

[joeychgo]

Very nice, installed

[ar15dcm]

Can the mod be changed so line breaks work? The text is lumped together in one big paragraph instead of being formatted with multiple paragraphs.

Thanks for the mod, other than the line breaks not working its great!

[CharlieDelta]

Line breaks work, <br />. I use them in mine. :)

[ar15dcm]

That is what I put in mine and it ignored them.

[ar15dcm]

Here is what happens...


Hello {username},<br />

Thank you for registering your account, we appreciate your patronage! However, there is one more step you will need to take in order to complete your registration. As part of the account setup security you will not be able to post or reply unless you verify your email address within 5 days.<br />

To do this, please check the email account you registered with for an email sent from admin@riflecompetition.com. If you can not find the email verification request in your inbox, please check your junk/spam folder.<br />

If your are sure that you did not receive a email verification request, please <a href="register.php?do=requestemail">Click Here</a> and a new one will be sent to you.<br />

Dean ( AR15DCM )

[CharlieDelta]

Ok what you will have to do is double up your breaks. <br /><br />
This will give you the line break you are looking for without having to create tables.

[ar15dcm]

Thank you!

[NoMatt3r]

Installed on 4.2.1

Nice add-on. Well done!

[btedition]

Many thanks for this great mod!!! Works great on 4.2.0!

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2014/01/31.png

[YOODA230]

4.2.2 works and this mod is really need to be part of vbulletin by default...

[furnival]

You can achieve almost the same thing as this mod a lot more easily by creating a notice only visible to members of usergroup 3.

[Hawk7173]

Does anyone know if this mod works in 4.2.5?

[Hostboard]

I see no reason why it would not. However there is a slight problem as the author is using external calls for the JAVA Script which seems to be still valid

https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.2/jquery.min.js


BUT

the remote hosted image seems to no longer be accessible

http://www.dvdimagehosting.altervista.org/images/x.png

Or at least when I enter the URL it is blocked from being accessed on my computer.

[Hawk7173]

Thank you!
