In order to make it compatible with VB 3.6.10 or 3.7.0 (otherwise it just will not work) add the following line.
Find in "personal_notepad" template:
<input type="hidden" name="do" value="savenotepad" />

Add below:
<input type="hidden" name="securitytoken" value="$bbuserinfo[securitytoken]" />

I finally got around to installing this - very nice! And thanks for the securitytoken info.

working fine in 3.7.2PL1

Working fine in 3.8.0 Beta 2. Thank you very much!

I don't really see the need for a member notepad....

However, I REALLY would like to see something like this for the admins to make notes on members. It would not be visible to members. The admin CP would be the ideal place for it.

Just my 2 cents.

Ohh the contrary ;)

Quite useful for admins to make a few notes in their usercp OR if you run a Gaming Tournament for members i.e. practice times, battle times, things to update in forums i.e. Battle Rosters etc etc.

Always think of more ways to use something then less :D

It's quite useful for my members, they can make notes for posts for the future (we are a writing club); as to notes on members... that's already built in to vB... called User Notes, you can set which usergroups can view and make usernotes....

Why would anyone criticize a free Mod that they aren't obligated to use if it doesn't suit their purposes? Seriously, why do people do it? The logic escapes me.

Anyway, I'm just chiming in to say that I have it and it's been very useful, and thank you to the Coder who wrote it.

Nice hack. Moved the notepad down a bit, as I have a customized User CP, but great hack. :D

*Installed*

Any way to add a Staff Notepad to the top of a specific staff forum that only staff members can update?

Slice & Dice the mod, find what you need and post in a forum using conditionals....

WHAT?!?!? At least I let you know it CAN be done ;)































I'll look into it later, send me a reminder PM as I'm swamped :p but I have this installed on a 3.6 board and forgot about it until now so going to put on my 3.8 & tinker a bit :D

Just checking in to see if you'd gotten a chance to take a look at this for the Staff forum I mentioned. :)

Tinkering now ;) but like you said it was meant for individual users, admincp has the notepad feature but forum based for multiple users might be tricky.

Did you make any progress on this, Supes? :D

Not on getting this to work for all admins however I found something, rather busy now but it is a message box you can save notes in, all you would have to do is throw up a spare DB then embed the code in the template(s) you want it in and show it to the admin usergroup via <if> statement that would also hide it to everyone else. That would be a quick way but later sometime I can modify it to be in your vb database. Let me know if your up to the task I'll forward the links and the files I have DL'd already, if your not then unfortunately it will have to wait however all of it has instructions ;).

S-MAN

Yeah, if you wouldn't mind forwarding it to me I think I might be able to swing that. Thanks! You can email it to me at steven@projectfanboy.com if you'd like. Thanks again. :D

No problem! It will be later today when I get home as all the files and bookmarks are @ home on my computer so hang tight and you'll have it ;).
