It's quite difficult to implement due to lack of hooks, but it's something we always keep in the back of our heads.

For the future, if you post suggestion threads in our Pro support forum, they won't get lost in the mists of time like vB.org posts do :)

Advanced User Tagging v2.0.4:
Fix: You will no longer receive an error when moderating posts via the ModCP

Fillip

Nice, ** click installs **

UH OH ! Just installed and now I have a problem with VBadvanced CMP!
I got this fatal error code on my VBA home page:
Fatal error:
Using $this when not in object context in /home/.../public_html/.../vbulletin/includes/class_hook.php on line 57

Any suggestions as to the cause and how to fix. I disabled your mod and my VBA home page returned to normal.

Hello

I receive this after uninstalling the plugin
any idea?

Thanks

Why does this not work when a post containing a mention is promoted to the CMS as an article? Instead you just get the mention tags.

Delete the files that came with the product :)

The CMS is not supported at this time, sorry :(


Fillip

Not sure if this was already brought up (I didn't see it in the description and I don't have the time to go through the previous 25 pages:)) but what's the default URL for the Top Mentions page?

Bummer it won't work with the VB advanced as I just installed and found out. Is there some kind of a work around so vbadvanced just ignores it?

I also trying to install this product.It is great and work fabulous into the vbulletin forum.

But the same error when I try to reach my index page at CMPS...

How can we fix this annoying problem?

Given that it works on every single other page and every single other mod (to our knowledge) this would indicate yet another bug with vBAdvanced's coding. They'll probably refuse to fix this, too.

Fillip

There does appear to be a small bug in this - it doesn't work if a user has a underscore in his/her username.

Have you tried turning on the ; delimiter requirement?

Fillip

Should that be necessary? This will make the Mod completely unused, if users have to remember to add semicolon after, they simply won't do so.

It works fine for users with spaces and dashes and dots in their username, but not underscores. This makes it look alot more like a oversight rather than a settings issue.

It will help me track down exactly what's causing it, though.

That being said, not using semicolons produces other issues like tagging email addresses and sometimes tagging the wrong username if a shorter version of the same one exists.

For instance, a member called gmail will get mentioned if herpderp@gmail.com is used in a post.

Also, a member called Mel will get mentioned if someone is trying to use @Melody in a post.

These issues are impossible to overcome without using the semicolon.

If you wonder what makes the semicolon special; that character is the only one that cannot exist in a username, because vBulletin itself uses it as a separator.


Fillip

I haven't had any problems with email addresses winding up tagged, since none of those has matched a username yet. Same thing with mistaken username tags, hasn't happened. I am NOT going to be using the ; delimiter.

Whatever code that recognizes spaces, dashes and dots also needs to recognize underscores, is all.

And it's only a minor problem, but one I figured you would be interested in knowing about.

works well so far.

This mod is awesome.

have a quick question about this, is there a way to stop the "Quote Alerts" to yourself if you quote somebody?

Interesting mod. Anyone figure out the vbadvanced conflict? I've searched their forum and no one has mentioned it there.

That is not related to the problem this has. This Mod does not work at all if the username has a underscore in it. This is a oversight on your part. Please fix it.

Unfortunately not, as that would involve stripping quote tags first, which may have undesired effects in some cases :(


Fillip

damn :(

great mod tho anyway, the members love it

Does not work correctly. Barely any settings available and the notifications do not go away after viewing them. Uninstalled.

It works perfectly fine for a great number of users. Notifications not vanishing can happen if you have vBSEO installed and do not use our vBNotifications product.

Fillip

works with vb 3.7?

We have not tested it with 3.7, feel free to try it and report back if it does work :)

We'll sadly be unable to assist you with any issues that arise unless they are bugs in the software itself, since 3.7 is technically no longer supported (I believe not even IB supports vB 3.7 at this point) :(


Fillip

i don't understand how it works, i mean how do i check if the feature works on vb 3.7?

You can view the manual here: http://www.dragonbyte-tech.com/docs/usertagging/


Fillip

It works great on my 3.8, other than the previously mentioned underscore issue.

sorry but this is not clear
http://www.dragonbyte-tech.com/docs/...um_manager.htm
where is the forum manager?
cant find it in my vb 3.7

It's possible the mod simply doesn't work in vB3.7 then. Since 3.7 is no longer supported by Internet Brands themselves and this mod isn't released in the 3.7 subforum it's not something we'll be able to help with, unfortunately.

If you can't see the DBTech - User Tagging menu in the AdminCP, add yourself to Super Administrators via config.php

Fillip

You won't find it until you install the product on your vBulletin.

i did actually

i un-installed the product but the icons show in the quick reply and also the notification area
why?

You would have seen the controls for this in the left hand column in AdminCP.

there is no
so i unnistaled but the icons show in the quick reply and also the notification area

Firstly, you should never try out Mods you find, on your live board. This is why vBulletin allows private test forums on your server in addition to your public one.

I have no doubt this Mod will work on a 3.7. It's merely a matter of working it out. I cannot see what you see, in fact there's not even a link to your board. I wouldn't mind helping you with this, if you wouldn't mind providing a test account for me to access and take a look.

This mod does not add any icons in quick reply, so it seems to me your issues are related to another mod :)


Fillip

This mod (I am running the lite version) stops the VBulletin Mobile API from working. Once I disabled this mod my VBulletin Mobile API worked again. I am running VB 3.8.1 with the latest version of this mod and th latest version of the VBulletin Mobile API plugin (v1.4.1).

There's going to be an update soon that will address this issue as well as improve the reliability of the ;-less mentions :)
