Okay, its working now :D

I got this
JohnBee added after 1349 Minutes and 9 Seconds
Another try
JohnBee added after 1349 Minutes and 15 Seconds
hadee yadee
JohnBee added after 1352 Minutes and 5 Seconds
df sdfs

The times are a little muddled, also I wanted to ask if accepted vb or html formatting or do I have to use another approach to change the character styling of the message?

you can use vb code in that messages

it is just creating one post wich contains that message, so everything which can be within a normal post posted by a user can be used :)

Looks nice!

But are admins/smods ignored from this hack atm?

Okay great and thank you for your support on this mod.
Any idea why its giving me large minute values instead of the accurate times?

Hack nearly worked flawlessly except there is a <br> after every edited message:

When is this hack going to be updated and pulled from beta? A new version with some new features would be nice

How can I add a space (linebreak) before and after the message?

for example instead of this:
JohnBee added after 1349 Minutes and 9 Seconds later...
Oh and btw this is a double post!
lbla bla bla blabla blabla lbla bla blabla blabla blabla lbla bla blabla blabla
lbla bla bla blabla lbla blabla bla blablabla blabla
JohnBee added after 1349 Minutes and 15 Seconds later...
hadee yadee yadaa yeeha haha

I would like to have this:

JohnBee added after 1349 Minutes and 9 Seconds later...

Oh and btw this is a double post!
lbla bla bla blabla blabla lbla bla blabla blabla blabla lbla bla blabla blabla
lbla bla bla blabla lbla blabla bla blablabla blabla

Okay, nevermind.. I fixed it :D

Xenon I turned off all Ajax features for my board and suprizingly the script still placed the automerged message on the thread is though it was still on (weird) any ideas why this happened?

@John: linebreak: just add more \n to the message, each \n is a linebreak

no idea about the high minute values, actually that should work...

Automerged message: i think we are talking about something different, it sounds to me now that you mean the edited by message, which can be disabled as an option ;)

@Mixmaker: that doesn't happen on a default version, so i assume you have added a <br> somewhere, where it cannot be added.

@Eagle: nope, not per default

@badabing: when i have the time ^^

Okay I found that (edited by reason) setting and it did alter that portion of the script function however what I meant is.. on my older file based script when people would double post using quick reply the screen would refresh and the merger was there.

With this newer script however it uses Ajax and you immediately see the seperate threads until the thread is refreshed. I wondered if it was possible to simply imvoke a screen refresh when automerging is invoked instead of waiting until its done manually?

I hope this makes more sense.

yep, and the solution to to an automatic refresh after a post is posted here, iirc, just search the first pages of the thread, it was in them :)

Okay thanks.

I was aware of this post

Code:

        'timespan' => 3600 * 24, // how many seconds after the last post the new post is defined as doublepost (default: 24 hours)

        'spacer' => "\n\n Additional Comment: \n",    // What should be between the old post and the new one (default: two empty lines). Note: PersianImmortal has added Additional Comment: \n to make it clear what is being added each time - can be removed if you wish.

    );

    

    $isdoublepost = false;

            $dataman2 =& datamanager_init('Post', $vbulletin, ERRTYPE_ARRAY, 'threadpost');

            $dataman2->set_existing($doublepost);

            $post['message'] = $doublepost['pagetext'] . $dp_settings['spacer'] . $post['message'];

    else

    {

        // no doublepost so save as new post

        $post['message'] = $oldmsg;

        $id = $dataman->save();

    }

This was for the file based edit however, for kicks I replaced my Main Doublepost Prevent Engine contente with this one :p
it wasn't pretty. I did a search within the thread for auto refresh and I did find 2 results but no reference with code changes other than the one shown above. am I missing it?

I tried uninstalling/reinstalling because it didn't seem to work, and now when I try to import the xml, i get this error:

XML Error: mismatched tag at Line 6

sounds like a corrupted xml file, redownload it again might help :)

What does iirc mean?
and I was unable to find an auto refresh function that I could incorporate into the plugin system.

Hi Xenon,

Does this hack work with v3.5.4 ?

- v

Yes I'm using it on 3.5.4, its fine

iirc = if i remember correctly

i just think it was posted here, but not by myself, because the things i wanted to do didn't work out as they should

Ah okay well thanks, I learned a new thing today iirc ;)
I have the script looking beautifully and other than the lacking autorefresh feature its way nicer than my last file edit based version. However I do miss the auto refresh option though... I wish it came as an option under the CPanel so that way we could use it as an option.

As it is now, my members are a bit confused when they see the merged message and multiple post windows within the thread. So what happens is they try to edit it and then are even more confused afterwards... (its a mess) and yes... they are not all that technical, but I still love them :p

Anyways I would be more than happy with an edit in the plugin section if you could help me have it refresh after the double post feature is activated though. I tried on my own and although i did get it to autorefresh it was very nasty looking because it would created double, triples, and more everytime. lol

Any idea what command or edit I could add to the existing script to have it auto refresh?

well, nope, as i said, my tests didn'T work out well, thats why i did it the "ghost post" way ;)

Aah now I understand :)
Okay well... then I guess this will have to do...

I guess in a worst case scenario I could revert to using the file edit version.
Any chance of members getting it as an alternate version from you Xenon?

hi,

i´m new in all this and i wanna know if following is possible wih this hack & maybe how!?

an user edits an old post which is already @ page 15 for example. does the thread show up again then on top of the first page after editing only?

thx for your help

There is an option that bumps the thread as new if the doublposting feature is used, its a setting in the options menu under cpanel

Installed on the Above Top Secret forum -

Thanks a lot. Using 3.5.4 and it works like a charm! Didn't take more than 1 minute to install! :D

@John: sorry, but i already have problems with my time to support one version of a hack, i cannot give out two versions...

Okay

Well I guess this version is better than nothing under 3.5.4
I hope we could get auto refresh in the future perhaps as an option :)

thanks for the reply and for a great hack!

hmm doesn?t work here when i just edit my first post of an old thread!?

you mean this one or?

Bump thread
Do you want a thread beeing bumped by a doublepost, or should it be a real edit?

greetz

Can we add multiple conditionals in the settings? If so, how? ;)

Sorry, but 32 pages is too much to read through to check for a feature, but this isn't mentioned in the description post.
Merging two consecutive posts is good, but if the user has accidentally posted a duplicate entry rather than a follow-up would this recognise it and delete one?

exactly, dupe checking is done by vbulletin before my mod starts working :)

Stefan, while your here, how do we do multiple conditions in the setting for this?

well, that condition will be added DIRECTLY into the code, so use AND tags ;)

Ahhh, so we use AND before every condition or just after the first one?

$dp_threadinfo['lastposter'] != $dp_threadinfo['postusername'] AND !can_moderate()
