Got it working on 4.2.3! Thanks for the help posted here by everyone!

have tried everything , used to have it working before i applied the patch of (vBulletin 4.2.2 Patch Level 4)

got it working , turns out you need to put in the userid , i had it set at the wrong id default of 0 , which caused the plugin not to work , once i changed it to my userid i had set up when i first install the plugin a few months ago , it worked again

If you get that error when installing, it's because you need to change the XML file (I used notepad++ to change it).

Open the XML file and change on line 24 from:

TYPE=MyISAM

and replace with:

ENGINE=MyISAM

Alternatively, just download the XML file I uploaded. I did the change for you :)

& then do this:

The original code is sound though, just need to make one change to get it to work on vB4

I wanted it to display in the additional options box though so instead of editing the newpost_usernamecode template I edited
newpost_disablesmiliesoption
After

Code:

<li><label for="cb_disablesmilies"><input type="checkbox" name="disablesmilies" value="1" id="cb_disablesmilies" {vb:raw checked.disablesmilies} tabindex="1" /> {vb:rawphrase disable_smilies_in_text}</label></li>

I added

Code:

<vb:if condition="$show['anonymous']"><div><input type="checkbox" id="cb_anonymous" class="bginput" name="anonymous" value="1" /> {vb:rawphrase zointsanony_anonymous_post}</div></vb:if>

That's it, should see a checkbox to post anonymously in the additional options of the editor under the option to disable smilies. The rest of the code worked fine for me on 4.0.8 and 4.1.1

Okay there is two issues with your second PHP:
1) Users who don't have permission to open/close the thread = the Anon checkbox doesn't appear for them.
2) The checkbox is ticked. I'd rather have it unticked.

And below this, add:

                <vb:if condition="$show['anonymous']">

                        <div class="openclose">

                                <ul class="checkradio">

                                                <input type="checkbox" id="cb_anonymous" class="bginput" name="anonymous" value="1" /> {vb:rawphrase zointsanony_anonymous_post}

                                        </li>

                                </ul>

                        </div>

                </vb:if>

Now go to a thread in a forum where you have Anonymous posting enabled, and you should see the Quick Reply Anonymous option at Quick Reply box.

Tested and working with vBulletin 4.2.3
Thanks to MarkFL for the additional help. Although I did actually manage to do it myself, it wasn't as clean as his solution.

I uploaded a screenshot of it being added, to help avoid confusion for where the code should be added.
Enjoy :)

Therefore we created an easy means to identify who created an anonymous thread/post should the need arise. Please be ethical and tell your members you can see who posted anonymously should the need arise. You can check the log by going here:
[Image no longer available]

And the log looks something like this:
[Image no longer available]

www.[YOURSITE]/admincp/anonylog.php?do=view
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2015/08/65.png
Bugs:
- The date is correct, but the post number is not. That was post #1 not post #10.
- Only threads created using the anon feature will appear, posts will not.

How to remove IP address from appearing under certain forum sections from moderators:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=107
&
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=175

How to make this plugin, usergroup specific for those who can anon post:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....27&postcount=4
So step 6, you would add this instead:

                                </ul>

                        </div>

                </vb:if>

Note: Just for the forums you highlight, ^those are the usergroups (X,Y....etc) that can see the anonymous checkbox.
So no, it won't allow you to have multiple forums, each having their own usergroup permissions.

Hello guys, I am currently trying to migrate the functionality to vBulletin 5.
Is anyone trying to do the same?

I am stuck trying to save that the post was anonymous, described in this post.

What would be really awesome is to allow who can see the username of the actual poster in the postbit.

I have attached an add-on to this product that will:

Display the "True Author" of anonymously made posts to selected usergroups in the postbit. You select these groups in the product settings.
Update the "anonymous_log" table for posts made using the "Quick Reply." This may only be an issue for vB 4.x users.
