[high]* Boofo KNOWS you will be very pleased with this! ;)[/high]

Howdy :)

[high]Concerning vBulletin 3.6 (beta 1):[/high]
This seems to be working fine under vB3.6b1.

At least I didn't encounter any problems while testing ;)

[high]* Freesteyelz likes the fun mod; clicks "Install". :)[/high]

You'll love it! Hellcat did an excellent job on it. ;)

doesn't work on 3.6 here

Why and where does it not work?
Working fine on my 3.6 so far....

When I tried it via QR the output I recieved was

Ahhhh!
Let me quote a part of the installation instructions ;)

[high]* peterska2 looks away in despair[/high]

You mean there are instrcutions? :o

[high]* peterska2 goes back to try it again[/high]


[edit]

Fancy that, it works now.

Can you put the file in a zip and include a text file with the BB code instructions please :)

OK, I made it a ZIPPO with an included install.txt :)

I had to uninstall, because I couldnt figure out how to make it work. I got the same thing, and I read this thread and I still don't know how to do it right. :^/

Simply add a new BBCode in your AdminCP like described in the first post, and now the INSTALL.TXT as well :)

Actually, replacement variable in instructions should say:

3)
Optional:
For every style you have installed go to Style Manager -> Add Replacement Variable

Variable name:
instead of

Variable name:
or at least how that's the only way I could get it to work (by adding the {}s)

I can't quite get it to show up in red. I tried a bunch of things but not getting it right.

Anyway this already is in 3.5.4 :)

Only if you added it it is.

Oh well, uninstalled.

Edit the replacement of the [me] BBCode to whatever suits you.
Something like in the <div ...> tag makes it red :)

Or simply use the replacement variable like stated in the readme and the release post.

If you are using the Advanced BBCode system and a user is in two groups, both groups must have permission to use the code before it will work.

Example:

User X is in Admin and Registered members groups.

Admin is set to use /me bbcode Registered members are not.

Admin cannot use /me script

Admin and Registered members are allowed to use /me script, Admin can now use it.

I hope that made sense. I think some people that were having problems in previos posts might be having this problem because when a user who doesn't have permission to use a bbcode uses one, it comes out unparsed like [ me]text[ /me]

-Grant

Is there any way to remove the bottom line space?

I always liked this little hack :) thank you ;)

Any chance of a 3.6.0 update? I just upgraded to Gold, reverted all my templates, and I'm getting a problem when you quote somebody that had used /me. What I get is the username followed by the post number, in the quoted text.

i.e. * DaveAK;1234567 has issues with this hack

Anyone else having this problem in 3.6.0? Anyone come up with a fix?

OK, I've fixed it, but I'm not sure it's the best way of doing it.

I added a $originalposternopostid variable into newreply.php and functions_newposts.php

In the plugin manager I changed the preg_replace Quick_Reply instance and the QUOTE instance to use $originalposternopostid instead of $originalposter. I left the isset($originalposter) unchanged.

Comments on this? It works, but have I done it right?

I would love to use this hack if you can update it for 3.6.2. I used it on my test site and have the same problem as DaveAK. Is there an easier way around it or do we have to hack PHP? DaveAK, can you tell me how to do that?

Also, is there a way to have the hack keep the same color/boldness in the quotes? At least stay bold would be nice. I'm so glad you updated it!!!

Got it working for 3.6.x Had to change the PHP code for the QUOTE and Quick_Reply instances to the following :

The nested rtrim first removes the post ID, then the semi-colon, so that it will work with usernames that end in numbers. No file edits are needed as in my previous attempt posted above.

Thank you so much, DaveAK. You are so kind!

Awesome, thanks for the fix for quotes.

Confirmed working (with the above fix) on 3.6.5

Note for those that don't know where to apply the above fix:

Go into AdminCP> Plugins & Products> Plugin Manager
Scroll to Product: /me (should be at the top).
Click Edit next to the /me Action (QUOTE instance) and /me action (Quick-Reply instance) lines and REPLACE the Plugin PHP code with the code from above.

is there anyway to add this to the quickreply?

/me installs on 3.6.8 works great thanks
and the members rejoice

Could someone explain to me what this does? From reading it appears to simply be a custom BB code?

does this

/me

you can custom it by added words after it.. doing something such as

/me wonders if Dave knows what im on about.

Ok, thanks, but couldn't I do the same with a Custom BB code? E.g

[me]*[/me]

why go to the effort people would have to type [me]*[/me]

/me

is alot faster, and user-friendly... lol

Not sure "effort" is an apt word for your comparison :)

Thanks for the answers none-the-less!

its effort-less / me action..

those who no irc know what the / me is.. :P

LOL! More effort is going into trying to convince me than you save with / me :)

/me loves it

ok, I must have fell off the truck and hit my head....this is what I get (I know I goofed somewhere...)

I type it and get something like this:

[me]*username bla bla bla [/ me] - got this part worked out, but can not get the replacement variable to work...

can someone help me please? I am not good with BB Code and replacement variables....

Any updated version for 3.7.0 ??
