it does after u install the hack

I installed and it works fine, BIG problem though FIREFOX users do not see the CHECK BOX for ANNOY how do you fix this!???

I use firefox 2.0.0.2 and works perfectly!

I also use Firefox and several of my members do, and it works perfectly.

Weird why on mine it does not show in firefox.. Ill try to reinstall.. using 3.60

Use 3.6.5. & firefox 2.0.0.2

Also is there a way to add this to quick reply? Still cant get firefox issues fixed on my site..

There is an issue if you use this modification and have a password protected forum. Users write their post, click Anonymous and submit, but then get an error message that they cannot access the page (I'm assuming because the Anonymous user hasn't entered the password for the forum). They can't post polls at all because once they are directed to the poll page, they get the same error.

Does anyone have an idea for a workaround on this?

ETA ~ I tried installing this modification so that the anonymous user could be ina usergroup that didn't need to enter the forum password: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=141665 The got me around the posting issue (users can now post Anonymously in the password protected forum) but they still get the permission denied error when redirecting to the poll options.

Is there any chance you'll add "Post Anonymously" to the quick reply box too? Thanks :)

I need a function. The Users must in a Forum anonymous posting. Is that possible?

(Sorry for by bad english. My last Englishlesson is "a long long time ago" :D)

3.6.7?

Might will be the dumbest question asked. But, I didn't see a solution in this thread.

I see in the Anonymous options:

Select the forums you want to have Anonymous posting enabled in

I highlight 1 forum from my list but can't implement this software in more than 1?

Thanks

All you do braders is just hold down ctrl while you are clicking to select more than one forum.

Any update on having the anonymous poster option in Quick Reply?

Does a user's signature still display if he/she posts anonymously?

No.

Do the anonymous posts display in the respective user's "Find all posts by username" ?

No.

Did you try it in 3.6.7?

Great Hack, but there's just one problem.
When a user sends an anonymous question, and then edits it, there is the text "Laset Edited By XXX" and as XXX there's the real name of the user, and not the name Anonymous Poster. can you build a plugin that will do the following thing:
if the user who edits the post in the real poster, than there will be a message "Last Edited By Anonymous Poster" (anonymous poster = the username which userid is set in the admincp), else, if the editer is not the real poster, so the current message will be displayed.

Thanks!

Hi Mum, are you using this mod? Aren't you able to see who posted anonymously?
( http://mummybrain.com/forums/showpos...7&postcount=10 )

Yeah i am using it, but i can't see who posted anonymously. All i see is Boo (my anon username). No idea if i can find out, i've never tried. Sorry i can't help more :)

Mum,
In the mod details (at the top of each page in this thread) is a method to see who posted anonymously, if the need should ever arise for you.

Are you planning to go upgrade to a recent version of vb?

Thanks rnmcd :) I hope the case should never arise :)

Yes, i would like to go to a recent version, but i'm new at updates and it seems really hard. How embarrassing is that to admit?

I was in your boat about a year ago. Give it a try but back everything up first.

Now I'm afraid to update because of the few mods I have. I always have a very hard time trying to figure out how to update templates that have changed since the version I was running.

There is something broken in this hack. Doesn't work on my forum :(

try disabling all your other hacks and then re-enabling them...
it works fine with like 40 or more hacks on my DEV board

Don't forget this hack is only for vb version 3.6.2.

I am using it happily on 3.6.8

Mum, did you have to do any additional modification to this hack for your site?

Nothing at all, just exactly as per the instructions that can with it.

*Installed* Using 3.6.8 and about 42 hacks. No problems with this one. Works nicely, thanks. :)

Intalled and loving it.

- for the who's online issue, I edited the include/functions_online.php so that when a user was on the only forum that allows anon. posting, it'd show another, more used one.

- for the issue with the prevent doubleposting hack, I edited the doubleposting plugin so that it would not apply for the anon forum

Now, I have one question: would it be possible to use this hack in TWO separate rooms, but have it post under TWO different fake usernames (one for each room) ?

Have you tried to add an attachment when posting anonymously? I don't believe it's possible.

Also, I don't think you will receive an email notification for threads which you have posted anonymously.

I think it's a great hack if you don't mind the above.

how do i set the default to always be ticked

Thanks

nevermind i figured out what was wrong.

just curious... when do you suppose the next build might be? :D

Hi,

great mod, but I do have slight problem ...

The Log Option will not show up in the admin panel.

I copied anonylog.php to my admincp-renamed, but there is nothing to be seen.

Any hint would be welcome.

Thanks!

best regards
peter

Please forget all the bloddy nonsense I wrote - one has to reload the admin panel somtimes ... :lol: :cool:

Is it possible to allow moderators to see the anonymous posting log?
