It's a great mod, but I've removed for now as my postbits are getting unweildy

I too would like to move the tag user bar...

Works fine on 4.0.3 btw.

Just a small question, when I post @username; it changes the ; to a : . It still tags the user, but just wondering if it was a reason for that, or just a typo in the code :)

installed it and can tag with @username; but it show in the post for example @agnes . is it supposed to show the @ sign ?

IIRC, this is to stop the username from being recalled (and possibly changing/breaking if people have changed their usernames etc) when a post is edited. Could be wrong though.

Yeap, we're looking at different display options for the next version though :)

I'll try to squeeze postbit component being optional into the next version is possible.

Anyone who was missed, It's because Fillip will be better suited to answering your questions than me =P

Iain

now works thanks and great mod ;-)

I'm getting this

hey, what about moving tag bar to below post?

Postbit can be changed in the Pro version :)

It's to prevent the mod trying to match the converted code to another username on post edit.

Yes, though we are making this optional in the Pro version v1.1 :)

vBShout v5.2.2 is required for this mod to work when vBShout is also installed.


Fillip

Thank DB.

The tagging works now (shows up in the thread) but it's not notifying the person that they have been tagged. Any reason why?

There shouldn't be a reason for that, no.

Later today we're gonna release v1.1, you can wait for that and see if the problem has been resolved.

Ok thanks. Also, when I click on User Tags from VBShout it says "Database error"

Dang. This is such a great idea but I really need people to be notified when they're tagged, otherwise its worthless. Are they supposed to get notified via PM?

People get notified through the notifications window. The same window that says you have X new PMs, X new reputation comments, etc.

So they don't get a PM, but they do get notified.

DragonByte Technologies is proud to present version 1.1 of [DBTech] Advanced @User Tagging.
This version introduces several major new features that users have requested, and some others we were unable to fit in v1.0.

Statistics Page: Display which users are the most active, both at tagging and being tagged. Same with mentions. This is a great way to encourage your members to utilise the feature and increase activity!

Post Previews: See the context of the post you were mentioned in! (Hard limit of 20 characters either way in Lite version)

BBCode Integration: A button for mentioning has been added to the BBCode toolbar – Users no longer need to remember the @; command.

Change look of Mentioned usernames: Allows you to use BBCode to make mentioned usernames stand out. Only underline is available in Lite.

Per Forum Settings: Allows you to turn tagging on/off per forum (disables the tag cloud) and mentioning per forum (Disables mention notifications from that forum)


We hope you enjoy this new version :)

you ignored me twice. anyways, how to disable bbcode?

Because your question was asked by others, and by answering the others' question, I automatically answered yours :)

The new MENTION BBCode can be disabled in the BBCode Manager (the one you add / edit custom BBCode in) :)

lol, really ? I have read all the post here but didn't really find out any instructions on how to move that tag bar.. :strange:

Great updates, but there do I find the statistics page?

Moving the bar is now a Pro feature :) It can be moved to below the Active Users list :)

The only other way of doing it would be to edit the code, which isn't something we can support, unfortunately :(

It should be in the Community menu :)


Fillip

Cant find the stats page neither. Have looked in community menu and it isnt there.

You might have a conflicting mod then, you can manually insert the entry by adding
underneath
in the navbar template

That did the trick for me, thanks :)

when this mod is active the moderators have great problems to modify threads, when i turnoff all return good

You'll need to give me more details if I'm to do anything about it :)

if i want do to modify a message or a title, when i click Save the page don't reload or come out "internal server error", when i turn off your mod the moderation works fine.
( sorry about my poor poor english :( )

Hmm, sounds like it could be a mod conflict somewhere. I've had no problems modifying messages or titles.
Not entirely sure what I can do about it tbh :(

Only me with this problem? :-(

I'm getting this error message when trying to approve moderated posts in the admin panel (it comes after I click on save)

Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in /*/*/public_html/forums/dbtech/usertag/hooks/postdata_presave.php on line 54

And the posts that I've set to approve, stay moderated, because of the above error. Any ideas?

(When I disable the mod, the approval goes through properly)

Edit: This also applies for when I try to move a thread. I get the same error messages.

Can you please re-download the files and re-upload them - I believe I fixed this but it may have been after 1.1 was released.

H?per det hjelper :)

Seems like that did the trick, no error messages so far :)

Tusen takk ;)

Hiya

I've installed this mod, works okay. Got a question though.

When I type @username; to tag a user in a post, then it is shown as @username: in the post. I thought it shouldnt have shown @ and : in the final post but those were just to tag the users? Is that's how it works? Sorry there are no clear instructions in the readme file.

Cheers

It is indeed correct that it shows @ and :, because on most forums (and indeed also twitter), the @ char is used as a substitute for the [quote] tag.

In the Pro version, you can disable the @, though.


Fillip

Oh then that's how it works. Thanks for clarifying.

You really need to implement some measures for forum permissions. I have private forums, and when a user without access to those forums is tagged, they still receive a notification.

I see that when a user is mentioned in a private forum that they do not have access to, they will receive notice saying "1 Notification" but when they click on it, the list shows up empty.

(edited because I figured out how to turn off the thread tagging altogether!)

Thanks so much for this mod, I have been looking for something like this forever. Even without the permission settings, it's fantastic for the public forum.

It's performance intensive to check forum permissions before inserting the notification, that's why that choice was made as a lesser evil.


Fillip

Good to know, thanks for the response :)

Hi,

I have weird problem with shoutbox integration.

I chose to disable the integration, but when I make mentions it still shouts it. The weird thing is that the shout notices don't appear until I make a shout myself, then they disappear after a refresh.

I've raised the broken SB integration switch as an issue at DBT forums' Project Tools, I'll fix it for the next version.

Fillip

thx, for now I've just commented the code in newpost_complete.php :)

Tagging, it doesnt work under social groups or any other site like pictures etc?
