Hi, I've installed this product, I like it too.
Thanks for the hard work.

My question is, when I hold my mouse over, activity, longevity & today, the popup displays the appropiate information. However when I hold my mouse over posts, all I get is the letter "S", any ideas what I may of done wrong?

Also, is there any way to control where this appears, like can it be on the left side, rather than the right side?

The "S" is at the request of someone who wanted valid XHTML. Apparently, every image needs an alternate text for that. The spacer images have an alternate text of "S" (because that is the part added to the image name...). There is nothing wrong.

If you do the template edits different, the information will appear in a different place. If you look at the postbit addition, you will find that there is a core table with class="wwu002 something. You can take that table and put it whereever you'd like.

Question, I would like to set the weeks reflected back even further than 10, but it is hardcoded in the admin CP. If I manually change the entry in my forum database, will this work? I would also like to raise the counted posts per day slightly.

Also, could you give any tips on more advanced tweaking of the activity rating forumula (i.e. including other variables such as reputation power, etc)? I assume this would need to be done by manually editing the plugins, correct?

Also, any plans to support vBulletin blog entries in the activity calculations?

The missing guide is an oversight. The weeks reflected is supported by a weighting array that makes more distant weeks count less than more recent weeks. While you could bypass the CP for the setting, the mod wouldn't work as you'd expect unless you also added more information to the array. Also, you'd want to just change the type of setting to text, 'lest you accidentally changed when doing a "view all settings", then save. The array in question should be in global_start, right after the function definitions; it should have "week" and "weight" in its name. You'll also need to change a calculation close under it that calculates the maximum activity value, as it's done inline rather than as a for loop.

The activity metric was designed as a complete system and has no hooks for including additional factors. Except for the Top Activity page, all activity calculation is done through a central function, so you could tweak it, though you'd probably have issues such as activity going off the scale.

I have not purchased the vBBlog addon, so I can't add support. I'm sure it's just a matter of copying the code dealing with the posts and altering the query to look at other tables.

I understand where you're coming from with this one, but I just can't figure out a way to work this that would be simple to use.

You could always change the template to use normal text, or use the text-only version.

I understand this isn't a supported mod but I hope that somebody can get permission to take over the project and continue developing the product, it sure has a lot of interest. With 3.7 just around the corner, I'm guessing there will be even more problems that we'll have to individually try to work around.

WTH are you talking about? I support this product and visit the forums at least once a week. Did you miss the part where I post answers every 3rd post or so? This mod is up-to-date for 3.6, and when 3.7 comes out, I'll make sure it works with that, too.

cygy2k 12-17-2007 05:20 PM

I'm sorry - I posted in the wrong forum for that. Sorry, I do enjoy this mod very much!

Haha .. You're foaming at the mouth a bit....:D

Great hack, looking forward to the 3.7 fix.

Zaiaku 12-26-2007 08:54 PM

You need a fix for 3.7? Its working fine for me on 3.7 on a pretty heavily modded board.

Raptor 01-09-2008 10:16 PM

A fantastic mod. I do find however that when selecting to view all users posts made today - that the forum slows to a crawl - and its a powerful as hell server with a ton of mods and a 1.2 million+ post community. Apart from that its great. Any suggestions on possible optimization as I'd like to have that option selected. Cheers :)

WetWired 01-16-2008 11:18 PM

The activity mod should have no effect on a search results page -- only where activity is displayed might it need to be calculated. Additionally, activity is only calculated once per user per day, the first time it is needed; if the post was made today, then the activity was already calculated when it was posted.

As far as optimizations, the default settings produce the minimum load, with the exception that more weeks counted will increase the load and that defaults to 4. Be sure to check the state of the "Show activity today for all users" option; this adds a query for each user who posted on a thread page every time it is viewed, which will result in a corespondingly large load increase. Except for that, the mod is designed so that a board with round-the-clock visitors will only feel the increased load once a day, and you can place that load off-peak by changing the mod midnight.

Matt5 02-21-2008 10:46 PM

Installed, it's great.

One problem, my mood hack has now disapeard from the postbit. It don't remove anything from it so i'm unsure why, any help?

WetWired 02-22-2008 04:03 AM

If you could paste your postbit template into a text file and post it here, I'd be happy to take a look.

shadowevil 02-22-2008 06:03 AM

Does this work on vb 3.7.x ?? :)

WetWired 02-22-2008 12:40 PM

So I'm told.

I hope you use the template hooks instead of edits in the next version.

WetWired 04-19-2008 05:00 PM

I'd like to state that I have a vb3.7 version that uses template hooks almost ready, but I'm having a bit of trouble with the product system not wanting to properly upgrade from an existing version. I'm waiting to see if this will get corrected; if not, I'll have to make a plugin to change the productid of the installed product to lowercase before the new one is installed.

anoob 04-20-2008 08:17 PM

I've installed your mod, everything works fine, except the text is white, and does not show well on my site, is there a way to change the color of the text?

WetWired 04-20-2008 08:42 PM

The text color depends on which set of images you upload. There is a set for light styles (with black text), and a set for dark styles (with white text). Also, there's little to prevent you from loading them up in a graphics editor and changing the text color if neither black nor white appeals to you.

anoob 04-20-2008 10:17 PM

Much Thanks!

Glad to hear it WW!

Will the 3.7 version give activity credits for new 3.7 activities, such as creating social groups, posting public messages, tagging a thread, etc.?

WetWired 04-25-2008 03:40 PM

Not currently. Right now, I've been too busy with updating templates and writing plugins to change templates to really find all the new features. Perhaps you'd like to explain what you'd like considered?

Well it would be great to include activity points for these activities new to 3.7:
  • Tagging a thread
  • Posting a public message or group message

since both contribute to activity and usability on a forum.

WetWired 04-26-2008 03:33 AM

What is "posting a public message or group message"? Like I just said, for the most part I'm completely clueless as to what any new feature since 3.5 is. If you want a chance of inclusion in the iniitial 3.7 release you'll need to explain where these things are and what they do.

I suppose it's possible, but you'd need to figure out the progression sequence and find a coder to do it. Everything they'd need to modify is in the global_start plugin, in the WWU002promoteUser function.

princeedward 05-15-2009 07:40 PM

Hi WetWired...i don't know but lately...my Members Today Activity stop the functions....can't see the images now...but for me it's all complete.....

do you have any idea about this...can you check it please...

thanks and best regards...

;)

WetWired 05-16-2009 06:38 AM

I'm really not sure what you're trying to say. If your problem is that you don't see "Today's Activity," it's because you have to turn in on in the control panel.

Marcimi 05-20-2009 12:08 PM

hi there

after installing the textversion, which works very well, i found some kind of a nasty bug.

here?s the situation:
we?ve got several user groups and the main user group has a big BANNED-slogan below the user name after installing the mod.

i got a picture of it:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2009/05/70.jpg

normaly there would only stand:
-=KennY=- (user name)
Administrator (user rank)
Immortal Soul (rank)

the banned-slogan just showed up after installing the mod.
but it only showes up at users who are part of our main user group (internal group).
others groups and users wich are not member of a certain group are not affected by the problem.

after re-installing the default templates the BANNED-slogan finally disappeared again.

so i can?t use this mode actually - but i would love to use it.

hope you can help me.
maybe you have an idea what i can do or in which template or user group i have to look for a certain thing.

WetWired 05-21-2009 11:22 PM

This is controlled in the "Rank and Promotions" settings. Apparently, you changed the default banned usergroup (8) into your main usergroup, somehow.
