Works great on vb3.8.6

Something strange has happened the Options to select which forum this mod works in no longer saves the selected forums, always defaults back to 'None'.

When uninstalling it, the forum looses its background and it goes all white.

The only way this can be released is if Zoints logs on (for the first time in 2 years) or someone else codes the mod from scratch using unique code.

Funnily enough, I don't really see either of these two solutions happening anytime soon!

Oooooorrrrr... the mod could be updated by someone NEW, who then credits the mod as being written by Zoints - upgraded to v.4.xx by <MODDERS NAME HERE>.

This way Zoints retains their 'ownership' (for whatever THAT'S worth after all this time) and the upgraded version is then able to be used by those of us DESPERATE for it!

If Zoints care enough to get annoyed - personally I'll be highly surprised. More likely they'll shrug and continue to ignore it. If not, they can ask for it to be handed BACK to them fully, at which point we can all then throw rubbish at them and point out their dubious ancestory.

No it does not work like that. Another coder can't release updated code as a new mod without the author's prior permission regardless of whether they say it was originally created by Zoints or not. The only time a coder can do that is if the original mod was marked as "Re-usable Code" which this mod is not.

Without Zoints permission the only other option is to code new from scratch or if someone wanted to post instructions in this thread for the steps they personally took to upgrade it to 4.x they could share that.

I was going to rewrite this from scratch so I could add some usergroup permissions to it but can't find a way to make it work without doing pretty much the same thing. The original code is sound though, just need to make one change to get it to work on vB4

I wanted it to display in the additional options box though so instead of editing the newpost_usernamecode template I edited
newpost_disablesmiliesoption
After
Code:

<li><label for="cb_disablesmilies"><input type="checkbox" name="disablesmilies" value="1" id="cb_disablesmilies" {vb:raw checked.disablesmilies} tabindex="1" /> {vb:rawphrase disable_smilies_in_text}</label></li>
I added
Code:

<vb:if condition="$show['anonymous']"><div><input type="checkbox" id="cb_anonymous" class="bginput" name="anonymous" value="1" /> {vb:rawphrase zointsanony_anonymous_post}</div></vb:if>
That's it, should see a checkbox to post anonymously in the additional options of the editor under the option to disable smilies. The rest of the code worked fine for me on 4.0.8 and 4.1.1

I actually tested it by placing it in the former area, didn't get the checkbox. So, this seems to be the only way it is working. However, it is nice and clean and works definitely in 4.1.2.

I will definitely be installing this on my upgrade after all testing on the test site is complete.

I didn't get the check box either, how do I get it working?
Thanks!

Daisyboo 03-24-2011 10:03 AM

Anyone?

BirdOPrey5 03-24-2011 11:54 AM

I followed the instructions above for 4.0.8 and it works fine for me, but you have to go to "Advanced" to post a reply, it isn't an option in the quick-reply.

Daisyboo 03-25-2011 08:46 AM

I'm not getting it anywhere :(
In the settings should the forums I select stay highlighted? Mine aren't I wonder if that is the problem?
Thanks for replying!
