Im going to install a vB 2 on localhost tonight and play with journal.php a bit, if I come up with anything useful ill post back.

Eileen -

Please let me know if you have any more issues. I want this to be an enjoyable part of people's boards if they opt to use it. :)

Anime-loo -

That sounds very groovy to me. You were talking about making a new journal for vb3 -- want to butt a few heads on some ideas? ;)


And I'm still a little uneasy about security. I know it's a pretty big umph whenever users can enter a considerable amount of text and it be read as html. Does anyone else have any concerns about this or any ideas for workarounds if they think this a problem?

Already working on the html problems, its a big fix that requires alot of work tho. So what im probbly ganna do is request permission from vBjournal lite's author to release a modifyed version. It really needs a re-write to be honest, and it would only require a day or two of work.

And yea, im working on a vB 3 journal system, but its more to it then just that ;), send me a pm if you are intrested in helping and we will throw around some idea's. :)

one of the things i'll be waiting for before i update to vb3 is a journal based upon/upgrade for vBjournal Lite, will installing this hinder that in any chance as i'll probably go with yours :)

heres the zipped templates for ppl with TBS installed

has anyone installed this with no casualties on a board with an active pre-existing vbjournal lite hack?

any store integration with this yet?

I forgot to ask previously... Does this addon give any admin options? I had to stop use of the original journal hack because some of my members were posting offensive comments and I wasn't able to remove them.

Store integration - No. But it'd certainly be nice. ;)

I think Anime-loo is currently working on a fixed up spiffied version of this that's actually coded with security in mind.


Fleabag - Admin options are in the journal.php -- but not for curse words, removing comments, etc. This requires me to know what I do not know concerning filtering [for the header and footer textbox, entries, etc.]

This addon includes only the ability to do what's able in the screenshots and the default setup of whatever is in journal.php - that's it.

Though I hope Anime-loo replies soon to my pm. ;)

well i really wanna install this, but i want everyone to buy it from the store rather than just have it for free.

Ive been real busy working on bigger projects that dont relate to vBulletin, so I havent been as active as I normally would in the support community's lately.

Harleguin: I got your pm, I will try to reply sometime tonight :).


As for the journal hack, it is begin worked on. I want to release something thats secure and includes moderation so it takes awhile to make sure everything is working like it should ;).

Sounds great :) can't wait to see it!
