User Comment System

[filburt1]

This hack allows users to leave comments about users. It is integrated into the admin CP options and is configurable via the normal permissions system (by default, mods/smods/admins can delete user comments).

[filburt1]

Admin CP options:

[filburt1]

New setting in permissions:

getinfo:

Filburt as I said you are a god!

/me clicks install and goes to install it

[filburt1]

Comments page:

And finally, leaving a comment:

Redo step 3, I forgot to add a link to post comments if the user already has one comment.

[Xelation]

YES! Thank so much! :D Gonna install it in a few minutes.. I'll let you know how it goes.

[Xelation]

when I ran install_usercomment.php I got this error when it tried to run the 3rd query.. what could be wrong?

Either way I updated the script with a query straight from PMA. Run this query:

DROP TABLE usercomment;

Then re-run the install script.

This doesn't like me. I'm stumped on step one of running the installation script. :/

Hey filburt,

Would it be possible to allow groups the ability to only comment on users in the same group?

Would it be possible to enable the user of having there comments be viewed by only themselves and admins?

To leave comments about yourself remove this from commentaboutuser.php


if ($aboutuserid == $bbuserinfo['userid'])

}


You can also remove the template.

Works for me.

Not saying you have to create all these features but they would be nice to have....
[list=1] Let yourself comment on yourself (incase people may want to ask questions and such then you can reply).
Time posted
give me a code to put their avatar somewhere in comment.
Other buttons like on the postbit (email, profile, etc).
Show most recent comment on the profile page (such as a simple value like $recentcomment). Have an extra template for this so we can customize the look of it
Have a reply button on the actual comment page[/list=1]

[iggy123]

I have installled this hack and everything appears to be fine apart from i don't see the links on the getinfo panel - i have double checked the info in installed correctly but when i click on the username there is no link there.
I have deleted my cashe etc but still can't see anything - any ideas?

Ok figured it out - thnx excellent hack - now they can call me names all they want....

[Xelation]

well if you have a customized profile... it might not allow you to see it if you put it in the wrong part of the html code.. just find $header and put this below it..

<center><br><a href="viewusercomments.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&aboutuserid=$userid">View</a>/<a href="commentaboutuser.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&aboutuserid=$userid">Post</a> Comments</center>

and it should be centered right at the top of the profile page. then you can see if it works from their and customize it later

[Dan]

Works perfect guys on a 2.3.0 install...... anyone know a way so it can put like the last 3 or so comments in the getinfo?

[Xelation]

im wondering the same oricon... I was it so you can set the options in the admin cp.. put

$recentcomments somewhere in the getinfo template and have it link to a template where you can customize the look of the comments....

then in vbulletinoptions you can set how many recent comments you want to show up in the getinfo... if I knew php I would do this but I dont... so oh well


I also would like a quick reply if possible... I know im asking for a lot here but its only to make a kick ass hack! :D

[Xelation]

Here's another option I would like to see...

*drops jaw*

Idea that would make Mist install this hack:

- on vb options allow a list of usergroups who can view comments, make comments instead of having to turn it off for each usergroup

- miSt

[Zelda-King]

Anyone I don't want to be able to post comments can't view profiles anyway so I'm sorted. That's just me though.

[Neopiper]

is there a way to let the comment span to pages? because if someone have 50 people comment on him, it would be very long :(

[Zelda-King]

I think users should be allowed to edit/delete their own comments.

[Areku]

Could you make it so only people with n posts would be able to post comments about another user? And make that n be the same number of posts required to have a personalized avatar? ;)

[Alien]

I'd like to see that multi-page span added to this before I install. :)

[Alien]

This is awesome, I'm going to go install this now into my AS v3 site I'm working on... I'll deal with the page span thing for now..

...and I'd love to see the last x amount of comments in the getinfo too, if you can swing it! :D

Thanks!

I released a paid version of this hack that has some extra features (including getinfo changes) but I don't plan on adding pagination (it's much harder than it looks).

haha thats great filburt... I pay you $25 to make me a "custom" comments hack and then you go and resell which was for me in the first place... I really couldnt care about that.. but you charged me $25 and are charging others $20... give me a break and it was supposed to be for me in the first place.

I charged that much because essentially you first contracted me out to write a new hack.

Installed and working under vBulletin 2.3.2. Very nicely done.

Tips to people thinking about installing this: be sure to pick up the modified viewusercomments.php for built-in pagination. The usergroup bug which was mentioned earlier -- and whose fix is already included in this thread -- also needs to be fixed. Just refer to the notes on Page 7 for the fix to admin/usergroup.php

what about having a setting for only mods/admins being able to make and view comments

[ChrisBaktis]

just make a normal link from the postbit to the comments.... the same code in the getinfo should work to do that


This HACK works great on my 2.3.4 version but I tried adding the code from getinfo to the postbit template4 to get feedback link on ths posts but I get errors

Invalid user specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the webmaster

I used this code which I copied from getinfo

Most Recent <a href="viewusercomments.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&aboutuserid=$userid">Comments about $userinfo[username]</a>

Can someone help me with what im missing?

[Kaelon]

ChrisBaktis -- your $userid needs to be $userinfo[userid] =)

Crank -- You can easily do this with Logician's Template Conditionals hack.

Hi

I ?m working on a site for an international non-profit organization. The online community will be key, and so we?re looking at various ways to incorporate member to member feedback into the site. Before beginning this research, we planned a hack that we thought might do the trick. It?s outlined below. However, we would like to ask if you all think that other, existing hacks-like this one- might be equally/more functional. Anyway here was our idea:

First, one would create a forum exclusively for positive feedback.
The hack would then:

1) Create a new thread for each user upon registration. The thread could be named after the user in some standard format. (amykhar already did this, it seems: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=91887&highlight=feedback Would her hack work as part of this scheme?)
2) Paste the URL for that user?s feedback thread directly into his/her signature, perhaps just after ?Feedback at:?

We thought this might be a very elegant way to incorporate feedback into VB, as the forum?s features would very functional. For example:

It would be easy to click from a users post to his/her feedback thread, because the link would be in the signature. Likewise, it would be easy to jump to or from their profile, which would facilitate making contact.
Because the forum is only for positive feedback, ranking by post would have meaning.
Similarly, hot threads would point to people who have done a lot of good work recently.
The report bad post feature could be used to report the presence of negative feedback.
We?re assuming that everyone would subscribe to their own feedback thread and so would be automatically notified.

Thanks
