I'm still using 1.1.0 and still not having any probs with it :) is I've changed it from Solved to Sold but would like a Sold one created if possible

What vBulletin version? I've tested this on an unmodded and modded vB both 3.7 and 3.8 and it worked just fine. I bet you it was there but the phrase didn't show up, and it was probably blank - which doesn't appear to be problems with the hack - the permissions file and phrases are structured as they should be.

I'll try to come up with something for you, as soon as I can - my license expires soon though and don't have the $$ to renew, so hopefully it's before then.

Is there a way to add an option to the forumsearch for filtering either solved or unsolved threads?
If you only want to get solved or unsolved threads displayed in search results.

Any update for this?

Unfortunately this mod is just weird, I cannot get it to work correctly ever since update to 3.8. I don't understand it..it's so weird lol. This mod is great, but it just plain doesn't work anymore.

Hellor .. it`s working but i want to have an option for solved and one for unsolved , like:

I don`t want that condition that makes apear unsolved only if the thread is set solved .. i want two option if you understand .
Cand you help with modification for this? i will apreciate , regards Dany .

ps: sorry for my bad language :(

Sorry folks, it may be a while before any updates are released, due to some thing going on in my life atm...

Awesome modification, but I have a question/suggestion.

Once I've marked a thread solved, is there any way of making it stay ordered at the *bottom* of the forum display page? e.g. if I post in a 'solved' thread (which is closed, but our support team can still post in it), it gets bumped to the of thread list - I'd like to stop this.

This is probably possible with a stock install of vBulletin anyway, but I've just converted from MyBB and am a little confused.

Thanks :)

Is there a way to "mass" enable the feature in all forums? I have a LOT of forums and turning it on for each one will be very time consuming.

I found a small bug in version 1.1.1
On the Showthread page I added a NEWTHREAD link next to the REPLY link.
Its a simple Template edit like this
If on the SHOWTHREAD page the New Thread link is not working cause the
do=newthread&f=$foruminfo[forumid] is empty meaning if you hover the link its showing do=newthread&f= and not do=newthread&f=12345 for example.

If I disable your addon its working fine again so I think your addon is messing around with the $foruminfo[forumid] part.

Can you please check this?

I've installed the mod successfully and can choose the option to put [solved] as a prefix but [solved] doesn't show up anywhere on the thread. Does anyone know why?

I just upgraded this mod since I upgraded from vb 3.6 to 3.8.x and found out after that it isn't recommended that we upgrade. I can't get the showthread template to display the options after I modified the template, even in the forums I've enabled. What do I do now? I don't want to uninstall and lose all of the old threads that show as "solved".

Just installed this onto my 3.8.3 (tech support) forum and it works perfectly! (still testing in my admin only forum)

Thank you SecondV - this will be so useful. :up:

Mike :)

For anyone who's experiencing permissions problems with this mod (as I did for a while), remember that there are two sets of permissions that need to be enabled.

The main one has been well covered here and is a Usergroup option:

Usergroups >> Usergroup Manager >> Edit Usergroup >> Post/Thread Permissions >> Can Mark Threads as Solved and Unsolved.

The second and less obvious one is via in your thread prefix manager:

Thread Prefixes >> Thread Prefix Manager >> Solved Thread >> [SOLVED] >> Edit Permissions

Hope that helps anyone who missed the second one as I did. :)

Sorry guys, I'll try to get the any questions/issues and a new release as soon as I can. Just a lot going on right now.

I might try this.

I just installed the 1.1.1 release on vB 3.8.2 and am having the same issues mentioned above with "Can Mark Threads as Solved and Unsolved" not showing up in the Usergroup options (easy enough to fix) and nothing but white pages every time a thread is viewed (No idea how to fix).

Can someone please post up the fix for the white pages? The developer referred to it as an issue with 'can_use_prefix' function, but I can't find this function in any of my templates in 3.8.2 .

Had 1.0.1 installed on 3.6.8 but now upgrade to 1.1.1 on 3.8.4 but its not showing up. Any ideas?

uninstall and go back to the earlier version that is what worked for me and Now I have Fully converted it o Sold instead of Solved.

I will give that a try.

Mine is saying Sold instead of Solved too. Did you just change the phrases?

Oh dear I'm not having much luck with this mod although I am convinced it's my fault.

I followed all the steps. Then when I went to edit usergroup permissions it said "rebuilt postbits successfully" but there is no mention anywhere in usergroup permissions of marking a thread as solved. What is bizarre is under "Post/Thread Permissions" in Usergroup Manager there is a an option to click yes or no to somthing but it doesn't tell you what - it's just blank except for 'yes' or 'no'.

I've tried looking for a mark thread as solved option when I created a new thread as well but can't find the option anywhere. Any idea what I have done? Please help!

Edit I have managed to get "mark threads as solved" to appear in the usergroup manager options. I've selected yes but I still can't see a button or any sort of option to mark threads as solved in posts - any ideas what I've done wrong?

i have a prefixes already, when i press "mark as solved" the older prefix is deleted.

is there any way to keep the old prefix, and just add the [SOLVED] prefix? and maybe even put it at the end of the thread title ?

Second that, having the same problem

Also still the phrase is missing, so please fix this

I consistently get this error message after modifying the default showthread on 3.8.4 patch 1 with your instructions.

The message you have entered is too short. Please lengthen your message to at least 10 characters.

I have a wired problem
I as admin can mark threads, and I see the prefix choice. But none of my users can see the same? I have hooked for all usergroups in premission section, and as admin I see it works. But only for me?

Works great :up: Installed and marked.

Only thing I am trying to change is so that it actually injects solved into the original posts topic - so that the search index includes "Solved"

searchin our forums for "Solved" doesn't return the results from the ones marked, only threads manually changed.

Secondv,

I would like to have that my crew people (non-moderator) can mark others threads as solved.
Is this possbible?

Please made this mod compatible ti vb 4.

Is there a timeplan, when the addon will be there?

Thanks

1.1.1 still doesn't work right with 3.8...I wouldn't count on vB4 support.

Also, "Supported" needs to be removed from the options at the top, as the developer hasn't posted replies to any issues in 2.5 months.

Not working? At my Board with 3.8.4 PL1 it's working perfectly :)

You're one of the lucky ones. Read back in this thread to see how many forums (including mine) completely stop functioning with this mod installed...nothing but blank white pages are displayed when enabled. I'm on 3.8.4 PL2. Sure would be a handy mod if I could get it to work.

IMHO maybe it's another mod, which causes the error together with this here enabled...

P.S. Sorry, i use vb 3.8.4 PL2 too (not PL1) ;)

I have no doubt that another mod, style, etc. is causing the problem, as it seems to work for some people, but I have disabled all other mods to test, and still no love. Something about this mod makes it incompatible with a large number of forums...I just don't know what mod/style/template change all of us have in common that is causing the issue. I have relatively few mods installed, but a couple large ones such as vBAdvanced CMPS and vBCredits, neither of which I'm willing to give up for this mod should they be found to be the problem.

I've only had trouble with one other mod, ever, and that was apparently because I use mysqli instead of mysql.

For reference, here are the mods I have installed. If anyone else experiencing the same issue has any of these mods, please post up!

Being unemployed, anything that can bring in cash takes top priority ;)

Anyway, as far as this mod - I can't reproduce the issues most folks are having on any of my forums, or ones I manage. I have this mod running perfectly on a 3.8 forum with nearly 4 million posts, 200,000 members, and 15-20 other mods/hacks.

When I get the time, I'll look into it more - and I may port it to vB4.

Works also here on a 15k users forum with 30 hacks.

Looking forward to the vb4 release SecondV. As we are pc support forum this mod is the most used one on our forums and we will wait till your mod is updated. Greatly appreceated if you will port it....

I hope that you find a job soon. This is absolutely top priority ! Good Luck

How can I make this for my classified section.. to say SOLD instead of SOLVED? I still have the 3.6 version working on my 3.8.4 forum :)

Hi i think i found a small "BUG".

with this

you kill the vbulletin $forum array in showthread.php

i used to put the forum-title of a thread ($forum[title]) into the page-title to get better keywords (SEO). after i installed this addon, the forum-title was never shown in the page title, because $forum[title] does not exist anymore.

is it possible to solve this problem?

edit:

a workaround for me is to put the value of $forum[title] into another variable at the beginning of the plugin and use this variable in the template.
