Hi, I installed the file and it worked immediately, thanks!

The one problem I'm having is with my automatic RSS Feed poster. Once I installed this mod, the RSS Feeds stopped being automaticaly fed into my forums. It doesn't give an error, but I'm wondering if it's because the userid associated with the Feed poster has less than 15 posts. I posted 15 as that userid, but still no luck.

Any ideas?
Thanks,
Joe

Hi all,

I have an update on this issue. I used TitanJeff's suggestion from 01 Jul 2008 11:14 and the RSS Poster started working.

Thanks TitanJeff!

I couldn't find the solution. What did you do? Thanks.

I used the technique in this post:

Great. Where does that piece of code go? Between the <phpcode> and </phpcode>?

joelozito

07-19-2008 11:00 PM

Yep. Exactly.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I'm getting error codes each time I try to overwrite with the modified code. Would you mind posting you entire code? Thanks.

joelozito

07-20-2008 04:00 PM

I'm not sure if there are legal issues around posting the entire code, so here are the details: In the XML file, there are two code blocks surrounded by <phpcode> ... </phpcode>. In both those code blocks, you need to do the following:

Replace
<phpcode><![CDATA[
global $vbulletin;
...

With
<phpcode><![CDATA[if(!SKIP_SESSIONCREATE)
{
global $vbulletin;
...

And replace
$return_value = false;
}
]]></phpcode>

With

$return_value = false;
}
}]]></phpcode>

The RSS works but this hack does not on my board. Must be a conflict with something.

Does this hack work for private messages also?

Anyway to exclude specific members or usergroups? would be great! thanks

It might or might not be working for profile visitor comments - I'm not sure yet (haven't tested).

This is a feature that should be implemented. Its a great idea.

for member exclusion, I think that the simple way is to edit the XML in this way:

Replace

Code:

if (($vbulletin->userinfo[posts] < 10) and

with

Code:

if (($vbulletin->userinfo[posts] < 10) and ($vbulletin->userinfo[userid] <> XX)

where XX is the ID of the user that you wish to exclude from this check.

for the group exlusion, edit the XML in this way:
Replace

Code:

if (($vbulletin->userinfo[posts] < 10) and

with

Code:

if (($vbulletin->userinfo[posts] < 10) and (!is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo, YY))

where YY is the ID of the group that you wish to exclude from this check.

I will try

** DO NOT REPLY TO THIS MESSAGE **

I just sent out a message stating that any users that have modified the code should immediately re-install for security reasons as the mod will not work. It's a matter of urgency. I done extensive code testing on it last night and all code modifications seem to stop it from functioning.

Is there a way to set the number of links to be made other than 15?

Thanks

lisss001

09-01-2008 08:57 PM

Hi, sorry this mod is designed for less then 15 only. This is all this mod is for, sorry.

I changed it in the .xml from 15 to 5 and it seems to work OK.
Thanks, I'll mark it as installed.

Can we set it up for usergroup based permissions ? i.e Admins, mods, supermods and donors don't have the restriction

Has the issue of this shutting down the rss feeds been addressed yet? I'd love to use this if it has.

aldamon

09-05-2008 04:14 PM

I changed this to less than 1 post because 15 is too high for our board. Thanks for the hack!

Does this add an extra query to the database or any extra server load?

would it be possible to add a block to whats called ed2k links, i had this one little bastard flooding my forums with them to things i wont mention here

most of an ed2k link is gibberish but u can also see letters inside the gibberish and all ed2k links start out like "ed2k://"

If I am right it is this that needed editing? Where it says 15?

Code:

global $vbulletin;

                $pagetext =& $this->fetch_field('pagetext', 'post');

                if (($vbulletin->userinfo[posts] < 15) and (stristr($pagetext,'[url') or stristr($pagetext,'[URL') or stristr($pagetext,'www.') or stristr($pagetext,'http://'))) 

    {

                     //eval(standard_error(fetch_error('error_nourlallowed')));

                                $this->error('error_nourlallowed');

                                $return_value = false;

    }

Okay that works but I can't find where I can edit the default message. If I try to post links or a pic the first time posting it says :

1. You are only allowed to post URLs to other sites after you have made 15 posts or more.

I need to be able to edit that. Anyone know how? Thanks

Keyser S?ze

10-02-2008 09:48 PM

yea, the msg go to lang & phrases, its in global i think but i dont recall the exact name

All times are GMT. The time now is 03:51 PM.
