there isn't even a quoter showing is what I am saying. If I followed the instructions and only got a partial install then I have no idea how that is possible.

DBs - I'm not sure why that would cause problems. I don't know anything about how vBulletin handles caching systems, but I'll put it on the list of things to look at. In the meantime, I guess you'll just have to disable it, which hopefully won't slow things down too much.

thepub - Try approving some of the quotes on your site.

I get a message saying I do not have permission to perform that action.

Where were you trying to approve from? The moderate quotes section in your admincp? Make sure your permissions are set properly, then rebuild bitfields (admincp/index.php?do=buildbitfields).

I have installed vBExperience and would like very much to create a custom points count and award based on the quote count from QuoteIt!. Can anyone help with this? I am looking into the method as outlined, but if someone has performed this already it would save me time. If I end up creating this myself, I will be sure to share!

It seems that I managed to pull this one off myself. I am attaching the final file to share with anyone interested. Let me know if there are any issues encountered. It seems to be working for me flawlessly.

I have a custom template I've bought. This doesnt show up on forumhome upon implementation.

It shows on the default vb template.

Any help is appreciated.

Using 3.71, so this might not even work with 3.7

Ok, tell me how to fix the delete function please. I go to the list, select the one I want to delete and click delete.

The pop up box comes up saying its been deleted, but its still there.

Cooleyvol - Did you add $showrandomquote to the customized template? Post a few lines from around that point, if you can. As for the deleting, do you have soft delete enabled? If you do, they'll still be visible to you, but they'll go back in the moderation queue. If not, try opening the delete link in a new tab or window.

Dr. Bantham - Looks cool, good work.

Thanks! I like this idea - I've added your product, seems to be fine so far:)

Thanks dude. I got that worked out.

With moderation mode 'on', new quotes are still showing on the website immediately even though they're in the moderation panel to be approved.

How can I make them so that they don't appear until they are approved?

Is "show unapproved quotes to moderators?" on in the QuoteIt! options? Turn it off if it is.

Turned it off.

Are you saying that only the mods were seeing the unapproved quotes on the boards?

Only people who have permission to approve quotes should be able to see unapproved ones. Try logging out and seeing if you can still see them.

Been using this for a while - love this mod! Updated to 3.7.2 + templates and reinstalled latest quoteit. I've always had the quoteit mod display at the bottom of my home page (not under nav bar).

Everything is fine - except my close quote image is where it would be if my quoteit were under the navbar. It's just kind of floating behind stuff! The open quote is where it would be normally. Is this something I can adjust in the css file?

Yes, it's in clientscript/vbulletin_css/quoteit_main.css under the .closequote class. It's a pain to get it looking good in all browsers, so if your visitors use a wide variety of browsers, you might want to just remove it completely.

Does anyone know where I can hold of a VBadvanced module intergration for this mod. I love the mod and have used it for a long time on one of my forums but I would like to move it over to a side column etc.

Any help is appriciated.

Did you try the module included in the extras directory?

For some reason I could not get this to install on 3.7.2 without a bunch of errors.

I tried the add on but I just get a space where the module should be. I will try again from scratch and see if there is something obvious that I am overlooking (it wouldn't be the first time :D )

KevinL - What errors?

expatdirectory - Try experimenting with the module settings when you add it. vBadvanced may have added some new options since the last time it was updated.

When I check 'show random quote' I get these errors:

Any ideas? I did do a search but came up with nothing...

Thank you

EDIT** now I'm also getting this

I would love for this mod to have a feature to auto-create a thread as new quotes are entered. I have managed to create new fields for this mod and could create another for thread title. My site has quotations constantly appearing within the forums for discussion. I end up replicating quotations myself within QuoteIt! and editing their post to include the [quotes] reference. I would think that this feature would not be too complicated, but it is beyond my current ability. I would be satisfied if the forum was fixed as a option variable, but having forum selection within a dropdown list would be even better. The thread content would consist only of [quotes]quotenumber[/quotes]. If you do not have time to dedicate to this, Cap'n Steve, then any suggestions with the approach would be greatly appreciated. I think that tying QuoteIt! to the forums in such a manner would be the ideal feature for promoting additional installations and forum discussion of the quotes themselves.

Hmm I'm glad that this was bumped :)

Has anyone ever seen this?

KevinL - Try removing this chunk of code from includes/functions_quoteit.php (also, post a list of the other mods you have installed):

Dr. Bantham - I've never used the post datamanager, so I'm not sure how to do it off the top of my head, but you'll want to add it at the end of the add_quote function in includes/functions_quoteit.php.

This works wonders!

Got it up and running. Now I had this on my site since the first version. I did a dump of the old database (before we had to close for a bit) and want to add them back in. Now when I tried to do that I started getting these errors:

I understand what it's saying but what I don't understand is why inserting them back into the database is giving me this error (since this is actually the 2nd time doing it like this). Also what is the table 'on clause'?

Thanks for your help!

You don't have the categoryid column in your quotes table somehow. I'm guessing your database dump dropped the tables and then recreated them. Try re-importing the product (without uninstalling it). After that, you'll have to edit the dump file and remove all the DROP TABLE and CREATE TABLE statements before you can safely import it.

Worked wonders!!

Thank you

Mod still working wonders and looks great!

I need something that is probably right under my nose but - here goes:

I have a style specifically for cell phones and disable as much as I can..

To date, I have the following:

What would the proper string be to disable QuoteIt for this situation only?

Thanks in advance!!

Do you mean just the random quote? For that, try this (although it needs to execute after QuoteIt!'s "Initialize Global Options/Permissions" plugin):

Hey Cap'n Steve! Thanks for the help with my forum. I am having a few small problems though. The submit quote button is not showing despite me performing the template edits and uploading the image. Also the quotation images are not showing up properly, one is at the top of my forum on the far right of the screen (by the log in and unread posts) and the other one on the left is at the top of the quote on the left side. How can I adjust this? The actual size of my quoter is perfect though. Also, the bb code images are not showing in the quotes (smileys etc...) despite being enabled in the admin cp.

As always - Thanks for the response!

Welp - it forced me to read a little deeper -
"This may only work with some products which include options to disable/enable them which are not initiated before the style_fetch hook is called. You need to be able to read a products XML file to check for such an option."

I bet there isn't an on/off for the whole plug-in is there?
(I making that assumption as there's no master Enable QuoteIt! that I see in the Admin CP)

No biggie but if you happen to think of anything, I'll take it!

UPDATE: This appears to be doing what I need. It just still appears in the CMPS page which is likely a different issue (I commented out the entirety of quote_randomquote and voila, it works...)

thepub - It looks like a search and replace went wrong. In your modification of the postbit template, you've got $stylevar['canaddquotes'], which doesn't exist. It should be $quoteitpermissions['canaddquotes']. I don't see any problems with the quotation mark images, what bowser are you using? If you want to edit their placement, it's controlled by the .openquote and .closequote classes in clientscript/vbulletin_css/quoteit_main.css. As for the smilies, try saving the options again and try editing and saving the quote. The bbcode and smilie parsing has always been a little sketchy, sorry.

gpc10347 - I'm not sure what you mean. Using the code I gave you should disable the vBadvanced module as well, as long as it runs after $quoteitoptions is defined (in the plugin I mentioned), but before the module is loaded. But if you've got it working then don't worry about it, I guess.

Hi we're using vB 3.7.2 and it will not sort the top quotes:

http://www.avrilbandaids.com/forums/...ing&order=desc

What's going on?

I can confirm this on 3.7.0, sorting does not seem to work at all.

also, deleting does not work at all, but if I delete it through moderation option, it just puts it in moderation, rather than deleting it.

Gio Takahashi - Set "Soft Delete Quotes" to no in the QuoteIt! Options.

I'm not sure how the sorting ended up broken, but try this and see if it helps. In includes/functions_quoteit.php, find this:
and replace it with this:

Is there anybody who has got this working on 3.7.x? if yes please oblige us by uploading a zipped file with full instructions to install... Cap'n, can't you release a updated version working in 3.7.x.

I've been running it on 3.7 for a while now. What problem are you having?

ditto on this - we get people posting "spam" quotes and we can't get them out of there uness i actually do it directly from the database itself via phpmyadmin

Do you have "soft delete quotes" on? If so, deleting them sends them back to the moderation queue, where you can delete them permanently.
