[DBTech] AJAX Threads v1 (vB4)

[DragonByte Tech]

AJAX Threads: What is it?
AJAX Threads brings your threads alive, making them automatically refresh without needing to reload the page.

Uses

AJAX Threads is the ideal product for forums with busy threads or which deal with any sort of "event" be that TV shows, sports or game releases!
AJAX Threads allows you to make topics "auto update" without the user having to refresh. This can give performance benefits when applied to threads which receive a lot of refresh requests, and can increase user participation.
Topics can be turned live by admins individually, or you can set whole forums to have their threads be live automatically. You can even allow only VIP usergroups to have threads refresh automatically to increase subscription numbers.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What does 'Marking As Installed' do ?

* For security issues - vbulletin.org will contact all members who have installed a modification whenever a security issue is brought to their attention.

* Marking a modification as installed also helps us know how many people are using our work, giving us extra incentive to provide more features and new modifications.

Major Features:

Automatically Refresh Threads: Users will now see new posts in "real time" without having to refresh the page

Performance Benefits: If your forum receives lots of refresh requests on threads being posted in often this can put a lot of strain on your server - AJAX Threads will greatly reduce server resources used in those situations by refreshing only the minimum information required.

Total Control: You can set threads individually or per forum. You can set particular usergroups to receive the benefit, and you can even have it apply automatically to popular threads!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

* vBOption: Enable Automatic Updates
* vBOption: Refresh Interval
* vBOption: Idle Timeout
* vBOption: Automatic Un-Idle
* vBOption: Enable Information Bar (Tells users how often the thread refreshes, whether they're idle, and how to un-idle, etc)
* vBOption: Maximum Shown Posts
* Ability for users to manually refresh threads if Automatic Updates are disabled (cannot refresh more often than Refresh Interval regardless)
* Ability for users to manually un-idle themselves if automatic updates are enabled and the Idle Timeout is reached
* Per-usergroup setting to determine if automatic updates are enabled
* Per-usergroup setting to determine if manual updates are enabled
* Per-category setting to determine if automatic updates are enabled
* Per-category setting to determine if manual updates are enabled

don't work here 4.1.5 :(

same here on 4.1.6.

Does not work on 4.1.2 neither. Uninstalled and received fatal error, almost ruined my entire site. Thank God for backup.

[pete_brady]

seems to work for some people, but not others... but is creating double posts occasionally.

no errors to report :(

[DragonByte Tech]

Double posts on quick reply is something I believe I've taken care of in my internal build (hotfixed for Pro), I'll update Lite with it if I can confirm it's not happening again :)

v1.0.2
Fix: The mod would refuse to function on vBulletin 4.x if you were not using the "Suite" (i.e. lacked vBulletin CMS installed).
Fix: Hopefully fixed Quick Reply post duplication issues

A special note on the Quick Reply issue: It exist(ed?) because I wanted to make replies you made via Quick Reply show up if you had multiple tabs of the same thread open. If v1.0.2 does not fix it, I have devised an alternative method that should fix it.

hmm this means the mod will not work, if i only got the vBulletin Suite 4.1.5?
will there be released another version of the mod that works with the suite too? :(
I've installed the mod yet and indead it doesn't work :(
But the idea is great and it would be great to have this on my site ;)

[DragonByte Tech]

How did you draw that conclusion from me saying that I fixed an issue that previously had the mod only working for Suite users? O.o

Hi Fillip, this looks like an excellent mod despite the fact I cannot get it to work.. Thank you very much for bringing it to us and offering your support.

I get this message at the bottom of my 4.1.5 forum but it simply does not refresh even when I click 'reload'.

Thread automatically updated every 5 second(s). - Reload

http://twistsnturns.net

[Alex@bulletin]

hey.

ok i will do that. but first a question:
because my site is not public yet i can only try this feature using the same ip but different browsers and different nicknames.
but actually it should work nevertheless or not?
the only thing that doesn't work on my site is the refresh itself.
i can see all other aspects concerning the mod, but the refresh seems not to be working, neither the automatic one, nor the manual one :/

[Alex@bulletin]

hmm deactivating all other mods didn't change anything.
but in the readme there is an aspect i haven't done yet:
"If you haven't done so already, add yourself to the Super Administrators
variable in config.php"

i'm not sure...what do i have to do exactly? i have absolutely no php-knowledge and don't want to crash my files :(

Hey guys. i now checked up the Firefox Error Log:
and it says:

Fehler: ajax_last_post is not defined

weltderkarten.de is my domain

hope you can use my information although there are in german :(

Edit: I've tested the mod in Opera and Internet Explorer too but it doesn't work there.....
Even a completely new installation has not changed something -.-

[DragonByte Tech]

That's related to the aforementioned guest issue, will be fixed in 1.0.3 :)

[DragonByte Tech]

v1.0.3
Fix: Fixed the Quick Reply post duplication issue, pinky swear for realsies this time. I hope.
Fix: The mod will now function correctly for users with no privileges to reply to the thread.
Fix: The mod will now function correctly for forums that have Quick Reply disabled.
Change: The mod no longer attempts to refresh closed threads.

Fillip

[1320Nation]

I'm curious why in the Forum Manager it does not show all forums?

Also I have installed the most recent update 1.0.3. My board is version 4.1.6. and absolutely nothing shows up in the threads per this mod, nor do the threads themselves update.

Any Idea where to look?

[DragonByte Tech]

As per the feature list, in the Lite version you can only enable / disable automatic updates per Category, not per Forum :)

Give me your site URL and I'll see if I can detect any problems.


Fillip

[Erica1977]

Thanks For The Update so far looks like it did fix those bugs!:)

Ok that explains it. The category it what is shown. So if you select to leave`enabled, or disable it, this will effect all forums and sub-forums with in that category, right?

I currently have this mod disabled on my site. Waiting on the webmaster to check the mod out to see if something obvious stands out on why it is not functioning.

Installed, hoping this is much cleaner than the lancer for hire version.

[sticky]

Wow, works pretty well! Iquote even works with it and no double posting issues yet.

Nicely done! How much is the pro version and does it remove the annoying link crap this mod puts on the bottom of my forum?

[sticky]

What changes the information bar text color? On one style it is blue on another it is grey.

[sticky]

Damn, double posts showing up :(

[sticky]

The double posting seems to happen if people are posting quickly one after the other.

Other than that, this is pretty much flawless. The double posting is a big bug though.

[sticky]

Anyone from DBtech? Double posting bug...

[DragonByte Tech]

Uh... Please do not post 6 times in a row, could you please merge your posts?

I don't think you'd like it if I sent you an email every 10 minutes if you didn't instantly respond ;)

For the future, could you also please not bump your posts? We read every post (which is why we don't want to be spammed with notification emails) and we will respond when we can - there's no support time guaranteed.


Fillip

[Laaser]

I have also a "doublepost"-bug. I see my posts only one time, but the other members posts twice time.

[DragonByte Tech]

There is a known issue where if you Quick Reply after having AJAX Threads load new posts, those posts will be duplicated. That will be fixed for the Gold version later on.

There are no other known issues with double posting at this time.

Posting multiple posts creates multiple email notifications so it's preferrable that you keep your consecutive posts in 1 post instead of 2 or more :)


Fillip

[mcyates]

YEAH!!!! This is Live Topic re-done :D

[Alex@bulletin]

Mh i go crazy.
Now i deinstalled version 1.0.2 completely and deleted the files from my server and did a new try with 1.0.3.
There seems to be the same issue:
I've reuploaded the files on my server, and i've installed the products .xml.
I can see everything concerning the mod but the ajax controlled refresh still doesn't work. Neither the manual one nor the automatic one. although i'm quite sure i've configured the mods settings properly. I've also contacted my webspace hoster and he told me the server is absolutely compatible with any ajax based features.
Does anyone have an idea what happens wrong on my site? :(

maybe i can contact you and you can have a look in my admincp^^

[DragonByte Tech]

Link me to your site and I'll see if I can immediately detect any problems :)


Fillip

[1320Nation]

That's correct :)


Fillip

Fillip,

for some reason I have been unable to get this mod to work with the threads on my board. I have tested on all styles including default. Info shows up above and below in the thread as it should, but even selecting the "Reload" does nothing. I noticed that when hovering the cursor over the "Reload" text it shows "javascript://" in address bar. There is no other part of address attached to the javasript:// text. Not sure if that shows any issue or not but I thought I would point it out. If you want to see this for yourself I will leave the mod enabled for awhile, otherwise I will eventually disable the mod per the Product Manager. I have an account setup for you to login with.


Thanks!

[DragonByte Tech]

The links are correct, the issue is entirely unrelated and happens because you have quick replies disabled.

Fix will be in v1.0.4 that is coming tonight.

Fillip

Ok however you really should include info like that in the Read Me notes. I was unistalling and reinstalling, and then finally gave up and search for this thread as a last resort.

So I went in admincp/settings/Message Posting and Editing Options/Quick Reply/ and selected "Yes, Click Required". After doing that I Test posted and sure enough the Ajax Mod now works on my current 4.1.6. version board. Thank you for the heads up. Now waiting for mod update. Thanks again!

How can you predict issue on something you have placed in "Beta Stage"? And better yet, How does something in beta stage advance without documenting and logging it's progression?

I was in no way criticizing your work or how it was described. I simply expressed what would have been helpful for me and the next guy. Now I'm going to the Support Developer tab and send a paypal to show my appreciation for the hard work done so far on a cool mod.

I just experienced this mod not allowing me to access the admincp. When selecting to enter admincp it would just sit there until it would time out. It would also not allow me to log out from my account either. When trying to log out by clicking submit it would sit and kick you back in like 5 sec to same screen not allowing it to go completely through the process. I had to disable all plugins from ftp just to regain access to the admincp.

I have not installed the 1.0.4. update yet.

Any idea?

[DragonByte Tech]

I'm pretty certain that's got nothing to do with this mod, as it does nothing on either of those pages.

Oh wow Lancer gave up his Live Topic thread. The same bugs in his seem to be present in this one from what I've read so far. At least your trying though, everyone likes Live Topic even if it does weird stuff. I would like to try this one out after I upgrade to 4.1.7

[Alex@bulletin]

hey. i don't know why but version 1.0.4. works now on my site.
good job fillip.!:up:
at least in firefox. but it seems not to work using internet explorer. in opera it works too.

But i see one issue in this feature: As Moderator you may sometimes not realize that a new posting has been released.
maybe there should be added a feature that a mod can see all postings that have been written while the mod was in a special thread?!

[sticky]

Please ensure you've cleared your browser cache, as DBTech has been running this build for a few days now and we have not encountered any duplication issues :)

Cleared cache, tried on IE and Chrome, still happens if a quick reply is made right after an AJAX post.

[DragonByte Tech]

Then I'm sadly unable to replicate this issue :(


Fillip

[mcyates]

Still getting double posts.

Say I load a thread up, someone replies, it shows up as one post, once I do a reply in quick reply, my post is last but the earlier post (which was posted as I was looking at the threas) is duplicated, excellent mod though, thanks

[DragonByte Tech]

Ensure you've cleared any cache (browser, server systems like vB Optimise) because this does not happen on the latest version, and there's plenty of posts a day I've tested this with on DBTech.

Fillip

Ok cheers i'll try, I am running memcached on the server, but its a managed VPS, might have to ask site5 to clear the cache, I guess it will eventually renew with the updated plugin.

[DragonByte Tech]

You appear to have set AJAX Threads to refresh every second. Please adjust that to a higher number as that may be the cause of this problem. As pointed out in the setting, setting it too low will cause problems (slowdown) with the server as well.

The same goes for your "top 10 threads" mod that also updates every second.

In addition, I tested it on your forum (Belazor and Belazor2 respectively) and I was unable to replicate your issue.

Fillip

[mcyates]

Ok thank you very much for trying this out. I have changed the setting to 5 seconds and the latest threads to 10 seconds again.

[mcyates]

Cleared my cache and it works fine.

I though I set CCleaner to clean my "chrome" cache but I dadn't!!

thanks again, great mod :D

[DragonByte Tech]

The options are in vBulletin Options, and you should see the bars on your showthread (when on the last page of a thread that's not closed) assuming you have not turned off the bar in the options.

The mod then silently works in the background :)


Fillip

[FReeSTER]

Nope, thank you for responding Fillip but still not showing up and everything is set correctly on admincp options

Are we allowed to remove the copyright? Placing sitewide links in the footer of my forum is out of the question so if you can clarify whether or not it's OK for me to remove your link backs that would be great.

Also, where do we get the pro version?

Installed and working fine on all styles however if I load the forum in safari on the iPhone the entire page reloads every X seconds as AJAX doesn't seem to work. It renders the site unreadable.

Checked it with FF, Opera and IE using a PC and it's all good.
Great job on this mod dragons!

AJAX Threads v1.1.0:
Feature: "Live" image on forumdisplay for threads that have automatic or manual updates enabled
Feature: Posts fetched by AJAX Threads are now marked as read
Feature: It is now possible to set per-usergroup "duration" before a thread goes "idle"

Fillip

[Andyrew]

Don't see the point in the Live graphic showing on every thread on the forum, any way to disable this.

[DragonByte Tech]

Disable the threadbit_display plugin for this product :)

Has the latest update removed the Hivelocity Hosting link in the footer as discussed here (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=2265095&postcount=27)?

[DragonByte Tech]

Not yet, no :(
(Just to clarify, that post doesn't detail that we would remove the Hivel link, it details a setting to hide it.)

[DragonByte Tech]

AJAX Threads v1.1.1:
Fix: Using "Newest First" post order had multiple deep-rooted issues
Fix: Posts deleted when hitting the "max posts" setting should now behave more consistently
Change: (Lite) There is now an option to disable the HiVelocity Hosting link if you do not wish to support DragonByte Tech by having it displayed.

thank you it's fixed now and it's worked like u said

[scottct1]

Install it and let me know, I do not have access to a test board that large. Ok I just went ahead and installed it. Got about 2000 people online now and haven't seen my server load go up at all (but then again I have only had it installed for an hour.)

Feature request: I would like to see the LIVE graphics only shown to threads which have been posted in in the last X number of minutes. :)

Thanks!

[DragonByte Tech]

That'd be quite performance intensive to check :(


Fillip

[scottct1]

Oh well, it was an idea. :)

I went ahead and purchased the pro version plus the new arcade. :) (I will try to install the arcade tonight.)

[sticky]

How do you disable the "LIVE" image?

Solution to my problem :)

[sticky]

The new version has created a problem. The first post in some threads will disappear after a few seconds.

That is not something I can replicate. Please ensure that you have not set the Post Cutoff to less than your Posts Per Page.

[The Vegan Forum]

Hi,
how CPU intensive is this modification?

[DragonByte Tech]

2%.

;) no but seriously, it is impossible to answer such a question. Even if it doesn't make any impact on one CPU, it may very well make an impact on a much lower-grade CPU. Et cetera.

We have had few to no reports of server load increasing, plus this version is free so you can check it out and monitor server load for yourself :)

[janslu]

We have had few to no reports of server load increasing, plus this version is free so you can check it out and monitor server load for yourself :)


Fillip,
sorry for bothering, but does the server load depend on the number of replies in the thread? I have multiple very long threads on my forum (10.000 posts long threads) - would that have an impact on my load?

Cheers
Jan

[DragonByte Tech]

That shouldn't have an impact, but we do not have access to a test board with that number of replied so it is impossible to say.

I have a problem gettng all [DBTECH] MOD'S TO WORK. the reason for this is thee upload folders inside the zip is a file upload. : I KNOW IT SAyS LOAD WHATS INSIDE UPLOAD TO FORUM HOME." bu every time i upload all the folders and files th mod seems not to work. the thrree files are admincp,dbtech,and includes. also a php file. it confusses me because im unsure if i should uploaf the files inside admincp to that directory anf includes to that directory but what do i do with the dbtech folder? i should just highlight all the files and folders and upload all of them to the public_html folder in my ftp? but when i do that the mod just wont work. can someone explain what i am doing wrong? thank you in advance.

This still has the problem of double posts showing up from time to time. A refresh fixes it but I wonder why the double posting is such a big issue with this and it can't seem to be eliminated.

[Alan_SP]

Problem is it couldn't be reliably reproduced. If you found out the way that always reproduces such behavior, it would be fixed. :)

For example only once I have seen double posts. After that never again. It seems that it may be related to something specific to your server, or mods you use, whatever.

[hugh_]

Ever considered adding Ajax to member profile comments, articles comments and blog comments?

[DragonByte Tech]

They're much less used than threads so it might be a bit of a waste of server resources if I'm honest.

there's a fix at vbulletin for this -- > http://tracker.vbulletin.com/browse/VBIV-12548

I installed it today and it got rid of the message. What still remains however is that a good 1/3 of the time i make a post and the screen refreshes rather than the quick reply just posting

[DragonByte Tech]

The screen refreshing can happen if there's an error with your AJAX request and it can't load the new post without page reloads.

Best bet is to check the links in the description for info on the pro version - we're not allowed to promote it here. I can say that the footer links are removed by a separate branding free license and not just by the pro license though.

Thank you

[DragonByte Tech]

If you are using the i.s.s.w "security" product, please disable it.

If not, try disabling all other plugins that run on admin_global except for DBTech mods, until you get AJAX Threads working. You'll then have found the culprit :)


Fillip

[anymvs]

well seems that something is going wrong with .php file or I made a mistake::

I get the following error when I am trying to install xml file...

/xx/xx/xx/xx/dbtech/ajaxthreads/includes/class_install.php appears to be missing!

file is there, I can even edited with vi, and see the contents. I have check any permission type to be sure that is not as, "read only". I set the correct permissions to be able vbulletin take action, restarting nginx server twice and reloaded at the same time, and at the end, I disable any kind of mod in vbulletin but still the problem isn't fix. I just want to know (since am not expert with php language ) why class_install.php doesn't have "end brackets" ?? for example <?php ....code here ..... ?> <<---- is not appear on .php file I don't have other thoughts about what may occur that kind of error, so I just thought a good idea is to ask first before to edit a code that isn't mine..... :)

Thank you

[DragonByte Tech]

Can you post or PM the URL to your site so I can see if it's uploaded to the correct dir?

The ?> is not needed for PHP scripts to function, in fact there's rumours it's becoming deprecated :)


Fillip

[anymvs]

Thanks for helping me... :) You gave me an idea with that, and I check the folder by typing the url into the address bar of my browser, and yes nginx wasn't able to get access into the folder "includes" I had miss to two - three folder that permissions are wrong, so vbulletin wasn't able to see the file of the folder.. Now I fix the first problem but when I am trying to save updates on AJAX thread field,(admincp) I got the following email from localhost,

Invalid SQL:
UPDATE forum SET

### UPDATE QUERY GENERATED BY fetch_query_sql() ###
`dbtech_ajaxthreads_cannotautoupdate` = '0'
WHERE forumid = 1;

MySQL Error : Unknown column 'dbtech_ajaxthreads_cannotautoupdate' in 'field list'
Error Number : 1054

Is required to set columns or table in mysql databases ?? Also, keep in mind that I closed port 3306 for world, so only localhost can be able to handle/access on database so a good idea to know the file of the mod, (as now I am thinking, it's 4:30am here ;) ) that's call mysql database to add column rows (or more general a new table) with that way I can configure , user & pass of database, and the port number proper, so database be able to respond back. Now may I am wrong or something, I really don't know how vbulletin mod's works, basically I am trying to understand. So if you have any ideas please let me know, if you need further informations, feel free to ask me:) ..... Oh at the end, please don't give the proper attention to my words, may confuse you :) Always thinking the most impossible situations, and always problems are more easier :P

Thanks for your support!!

[DragonByte Tech]

Run these:
ALTER TABLE forum ADD dbtech_ajaxthreads_cannotautoupdate ENUM('0', '1') NOT NULL DEFAULT '0'
ALTER TABLE forum ADD dbtech_ajaxthreads_cannotmanualupdate ENUM('0', '1') NOT NULL DEFAULT '0'
ALTER TABLE thread ADD dbtech_ajaxthreads_refreshthread ENUM('0','1') DEFAULT '1'
ALTER TABLE thread ADD dbtech_ajaxthreads_refreshthread_override ENUM('0','1') DEFAULT '0'

ok, cool. i just solved it by turning off your LIVE plugin and then creating a thread prefix that is bright red and says LIVE. so ill put that prefix on events. works good.

ill try to dig around and figure out how to only get the text to show up at the bottom. i mean, you dont really need to click to refresh when you are on the first post since you still have to scroll down anyways.

im using it to iframe a thread into a 900x200 window below an iframe of live video streams. so basically making a forum thread into a chatbox since it auto updates without having to leave the page. i put an anchor so that when the thread iframe loads it goes straight to the first posts instead of the top, eliminating all the nav bars etc.

that way i have my vbookie/play by play thread on the same page as the video sports stream. i combined it with simple postbit mod to remove all the post bit and avatars only on those threads.

[prophetmuhammad]

hey there, how do i stop the mod from automatically bumping me to the bottom as soon as a reply is posted?

thanks

[DragonByte Tech]

We use vBulletin's default function for initialising postbit for maximum compatibility, so if that's a feature of that function then we can't change that unfortunately :(


Fillip

[prophetmuhammad]

also, it doesn't seem to be compatible with some "Thank" plug-ins.

[DragonByte Tech]

It's compatible with DBTech's Thanks mod, we unfortunately can't guarantee compatibility with every Thanks mod out there :(

[Popa Andrei]

This is a stupid mode.It overloaded the forum.

I'm not entirely sure what the point of your comment is, it's not exactly what I'd call constructive critisism, but thank you for taking the time to comment :)

I've tried to install a few times to our 4.2 forum, but the ACP functions won't work. When I click any of the functions I get this browser error: The requested URL /test/sec_adm/ajaxthreads.php was not found on this server.

Sure enough the files aren't there. Are those files supposed to be placed in that folder by the install script? I put all the other files in the folders where they belong and have checked several times to make sure they're all there.

I can see that it's installed because I see the message at the tops of forums, but there's no way for me to change any of the settings.

Fillip

[My Hattiesburg]

No, you need to manually upload the contents of the /upload/admincp dir to your sec_adm folder.


Fillip

Ok, thanks. But that's a little confusing since I have an admincp folder in forums/ and the zip archive also has an admincp folder but no sec_adm folder.

[DragonByte Tech]

That's because I have no way of knowing what you customised your AdminCP folder to be :p

By default, the folder is called admincp. You chose to rename it, I cannot account for that. It's your responsibility to check that all mods that upload files to the admincp and modcp folders go in your renamed folders instead.

[Tjap]

Is it also possible to stop the mod from automatically scrolling down the newest post?

[sticky]

It doesn't do that?

[Tjap]

It doesn't do that?

No, it always shows the newest post on the bottom of the page, which is also quite anoying when you're trying to quick reply

[DragonByte Tech]

Is it also possible to stop the mod from automatically scrolling down the newest post?Unfortunately not, no. That'd be the vBulletin function to init the postbit, which we have to use in order to make stuff like Quick Edit and such work :(

[steeler7]

The screen refreshing can happen if there's an error with your AJAX request and it can't load the new post without page reloads.


Fillip

this still happens. I got rid of the manual fix from a while back, so basically I get the prompt to Refresh or Stay on the Page quite often, it seems like it happens if someone maybe posts at the same time as me but that has never been consistent. All I know is that it happens often when there's more traffic than usual, maybe 3-8 people discussing a topic in real time, like a sports game in progress.

It just seems to defeat the purpose of "live" automatic refreshing when about 1/3 of the time the screen has to refresh completely itself.

[DragonByte Tech]

Unless it can be reliably reproduced, I have no way of debugging it :(

You may want to consider enabling error logging to file in your PHP setup, so you can see if there's any PHP errors that are intermittent.


Fillip

[Merlok]

Is there a way to disable or delete the image which says "LIVE" in front of all threads in bold red? This looks really strange in my forum.

[DragonByte Tech]

Disable the threadbit display plugin for this mod :)


Fillip

[Merlok]

Thanks. :)
That solved my problem.

[Zakalway]

Is there any way to have Metafilter-style new post alert behavior?

IE: If there are no new posts, nothing shows up. When they're are there, a little box pops up with how many new posts there are, and asks if you want to see more. It also tells you to reload the page when it goes too long with no updates. It works a little bit like how new tweets are loaded on Twitter.

My users really love the plugin and I've gone ahead and bought the pro version, but they really don't like how the automatic updates work now.

[DragonByte Tech]

Unfortunately that would require a significant re-write of the way the mod works :(

You can post a suggestion in our forums: http://www.dragonbyte-tech.com/forumdisplay.php?f=107 and we'll take it into consideration :)


Fillip

[cnczone]

Disable the threadbit display plugin for this mod :)


Fillip

where is the found?

[cnczone]

Found it. But the hack does not seam to work, If I click refresh nothing happens.

[Alan_SP]

You need to have new posts, for refresh to work.

[DragonByte Tech]

Hello? DBtech?Hey :)
As per the OP of all our mod releases, you should post on our support forum for quicker support.
vBulletin.org support is always going to be delayed due to the fact that it's much harder for us to support multiple products on this site as opposed to our own.

Disabled products and it still happens, not sure what to do. Everything refreshes except for the part where you can click quote, reply, etc.

[DragonByte Tech]

If the product is disabled then it's obviously not an issue in our mod, you may wish to disable all hooks via the vBulletin Options setting and if it still occurs, contact vBulletin support.

If it was working with 4.2.0 and I made no changes except for 4.2.1 how do you it isn't your mod?

[DragonByte Tech]

Sorry, I don't understand how that means it's our mod's fault if our mod is disabled.

All vBulletin plugins follow the same rule; if it is disabled it has no way of inserting itself into vBulletin processes like threads.

How? I get that error.

Your error is not related to this mod, either you have incorrectly uninstalled vBNotifications (forgot to remove the files) or your installation is corrupt and you should re-import the XML.

But I'm trying to install vBThreads not Notifications. And, I've restarted many times... Download, extract. Upload whatever inside the upload folder, and import the XML via the AdminCP?

[DragonByte Tech]

That doesn't matter, the error says dbtech_notifications which is a part of our vBNotifications product.

Can you please tell me whether you have at one point had vBNotifications installed?

Fillip

[KaayVan]

Yes I installed vBNotifications and it's working without any problem. And I receive that error whenever I install Threads.

[DragonByte Tech]

Can you please provide more information as to when exactly during installation you receive it? Can you post a screenshot?

It says "1 Link to Hivelocity Hosting (removable via a vBulletin Option)"

What do they mean by that? What vB option?

[My Hattiesburg]

I found an oddity with this mod last night.

We had a Q&A session with a local political candidate, so we created a forum where all the new posts were moderated. We made the candidate a moderator so he could see all the questions that were asked of him and he could choose which ones he wanted to reply to. As he replied to a question, we would then approve his reply since it was moderated, too, and then we would approve the original question. The candidate did not reply to the questions in the order that they posted.

That's when things got weird. After he replied to a couple of posts, some of the posts that were made before that one just disappeared. I had to finally turn off the automatic refresh to keep that from happening, but even using the manual refresh caused it to happen. I finally had to fall back to just using the browser refresh button to see which posts needed to be moderated and to see any new posts being added to the thread.

[DragonByte Tech]

That is intended functionality. This mod has a "Maximum Post Count" that compliments vBulletin's "Posts per Page" setting to control how many posts show up per page.

Thanks for this update, is there a new archive link for it? Also in my testing there are compatibility issues with vbulletin 4.2.2 which are unrelated to php 5.4. Are these fixed also?
