I have who's online turned off, so that won't affect me. I'll let this thread go a bit and see people's experiences before I install.

I'll be investigating the potential of a 3.6.2 issue on a clean install within 60 minutes (doing the install now) and get back to you :)

If anyone experiencing this issue can provide me with a very detailed step by step of when this is happening, it would be appreciated.

Can you link me to a thread where this happens please. I can't recreate it.

Can you link me to an example of this please? Thanks :)

This isn't good if you want to restrict this feature to one forum (like a rant/rave forum)...is there a way around it?

I'm sure there is a way, but it would require some additional hacking. We *may* add that to the system in the future, but no time soon. Others are of course welcome to post a means to remedy it. I personally have who's online off because it creeps me out from a privacy perspective.

amnesia623 10-18-2006 02:24 AM

DChapman,

I think this is a great hack and I hope I didn't come off as negative about it.

I have already removed the post and forum so I cannot provide a link, sorry.

Thanks

Not at all :) Did my responses come across as agitated? If so, my apologies.

Can I talk you into turning it back on and trying to recreate the problem? If there is some strange bug around, I want to get it fixed.

amnesia623 10-18-2006 07:32 AM

i will have to reinstall the product (which I dont mind doing)

still interested? I could give you a temp login/pass if you wanted to try it

If you can recreate the problem, yes, a temp login/pass and a link to the example would be great. Thanks!

I agree. If anyone is concerned about the privacy of their guests for the anon hack, this should be turned off. Kinda creeps me out too.

Allan 10-18-2006 10:04 PM

Great, good job ;)

A question, it's possible to use this hack for extern page ?

If yes, which modification will be to make ?

Thank you :)

What do you mean by "hack for extern page"? I assume you want to use it on an external page. But i'm not sure how you would use it.

Allan 10-19-2006 10:05 AM

Yes, i create a hack, example (/blabla.php) and I would wish that the members be able poster anonymously (Confessionary)

StarBuG 10-19-2006 12:39 PM

EDIT: Sorry, the umlaut problem was with the tag hack not this one, sorry ;)

snowman872 11-08-2006 04:52 PM

Seems to be working good for me! Thanks for the great hack! *clicks install*

Been Told 11-15-2006 05:52 PM

I have been looking for this for AGES even back I was using Invision.

Thanks so much! Nominated for mod of the month! :D

voclain 11-21-2006 02:28 AM

Just wondering...alot of my people like to use the QUICK REPLY box...is there a way to add the "anonymous check box" in the quick reply?????

SO FAR this hack is GREAT!!!

Kirk

voclain 11-22-2006 03:47 AM

I THINK I found a BUG!!!!!!! Wow...I'm so impressed with myself....I've never found a BUG before!

OK....My site is MOSTLY for Pro Photographers...thus..there is a lot of IMAGE POSTING...

I have a section for Constructive Critisim.....and in that section...if you want to be anonymous...you can...WORKS GREAT...except ............AND HERE IS THE BUG................

If you attach an image *.jpg and you want to be Anonymous.....the image...the ATTACHMENT does not show up.

IF you hit PREVIEW..it does....but when you SUBMIT....it does not show up...

HELP!!!!
HELP!!!!

HELP!!!!

Got to be fix for this????

Kirk

Zoints 11-22-2006 03:55 AM

Hi Kirk,

Those are known limitations of the system. We'll be evaluating making attachments and quick reply work with the anonymous posting in the future. I apologize for the trouble :(

AHHHHHHHHHHHH MAN......that truly SUCKS!!!!

Give me a price...PM ME....I'm being very serious!

Zoints 11-23-2006 06:32 AM

Hi Kirk,

We don't want your money, but thanks for offering. We're going to see if we can get attachments and quick reply to work this weekend. :)

DC...if you do....I'll be happy to be a TESTER for you.....and I thank you 100%.

Just update it here and I'll be first in line.

Yours,

Allan 11-30-2006 10:02 AM

It would be possible to oblige people has this to connect anonymously ? (don't choice)

da420 11-30-2006 03:19 PM

I would install this if it was possible to pick a thread ID. I dont want ppl to be posting in any thread Anonymously, all I want is them to be posting in my Anonymous Confessions thread. If that was a possibility I would install this.

Other than that, another great hack DChapman and Zoints, love your work. :)

yoyoyoyo 11-30-2006 05:16 PM

I installed this mod and created "The confessionary" forum and enabled anonymous posting, however the IP address is showing to mods and supermods. How can I remove the IP address function for mods and supermods from the forums that are specified to be anonymous?

edit: oops- I meant to post this in the vb3.5 thread, but I assume the solution would be the same for either version.

Dump ^^

Zoints 12-06-2006 12:24 AM

To update:

1. The attachment issue has proven to be more troublesome that expected due to the potential for exploit (think about it and you might see why). We're hopeful we can figure out a good way around it that doesn't require a massive coding effort.

2. We're not providing support for additional changes to this modification. Anyone out there is welcome to modify it to fit your needs. It's working well as it was designed and we just don't have the time right now to provide everyone with personalized edits. Thanks for understanding :)

3. I know of one good hack writer working on a confessionary hack. When his system is released which will likely have much more functionality than this hack (knowing him) then I'll post here with a link to it.

voclain 12-07-2006 04:03 PM

SHOOT!...I was so looking forward to ATTACHEMENTS....being that I only use this as a tool to allow my members to have there images critiqued without everyone knowing who the maker of the image is.

OH WELL.

great hack thank you.. is it possible to quickreply anonymous?

Jack Black 01-16-2007 05:59 PM

Apparently the "Currently Active User's " list shows who is creating post's in whatever section you have set to anonymous......making somewhat less anonymous?

Yeah, not a whole lot that can be done with that. That's part of the reason I have that system turned off. It's quite a privacy killer.

Has any fix been found for this yet? I'm going to have to uninstall shortly, as people want anon, but the quick reply is more wanted.

At the moment i've got quick reply turned off :(

HMBeaty 02-01-2007 04:03 AM

Ok, I JUST noticed this as a user pointed it out to me, I also checked the product to see if that was the problem. Anyway, here is the problem I am having......my Zoints Anon Posting FAQ...........is not in English, its the same way in the product. Can I get this translated to English please?

My FAQ:
http://redlinemotorsports.org/forum/...ointsanony_faq

And here's the code in the Product:
Code:

                <phrasetype name="FAQ Text" fieldname="faqtext">

Please help

HMBeaty 02-02-2007 08:33 PM

Anyone care to translate this for me please?

Zoints 02-02-2007 09:09 PM

That is latin placeholder text. Put whatever you want in there to explain the product.

Same here, I am still on a 3.6.2 forum with all patches and cannot get it work ;(

I hope after my update next week up to 3.6.4 it will work!

Cheertobi 02-06-2007 07:40 PM

That's strange, the anonym log is written, but the username is still the one of the poster ;(

Seems to be something with the postbit! Forumdisplay shows anonymous as last poster...

Cheertobi 02-06-2007 07:59 PM

Sorted it out, seems to be a vbseo problem ;(

I'd just tell my users to use invisible mode if they want to post anonymously

Being in invisible mode doesn't make your posts anonymous.
