That has already been fixed, if you re-download and re-upload the files it will be fixed.

I believe I sent out an update mail and also posted here in the thread when it was fixed :)

Installed thanks for the great work. I really like your mods.

v1.2.1 has been released.

v1.2 added the following:
Twitter-Like Mentions: Finally the feature you've all been waiting for! Thanks to Darkwaltz4, you can now use @user to Mention someone, no ; needed!

v1.2.1 was a maintenance release focused on fixing bugs reported in the bug tracker on our website.

I can't get this to work for me. What am I missing? I've tried with just "@" and adding the ";" to the end with no success.

Make sure you're spelling the user name correctly. Also, this will currently only work in posts, and only posts posted via vBulletin's own posting interface.

Beyond that, I have no idea, it seems to work fine for everybody else.

Fillip

I figured it out. Stupid me.

Does the pro version remove the "@".? Thanks! Wonderful mod.

It does allow that option, yeah.

Fillip

I just re-downloaded and re-uploaded the files, then re-uploaded the XML while allowing overwrite.

When I click on my username in the forum, I get this error above the header:
Same error happens when I click on a username link that has been mentioned.

I'm using vb version 4.0.6

edit: Correction, this only happens when I click on my own username, not another users.

Can you show me the entire contents of the message that was mentioned?
Put it in CODE tags too so that BBCode doesn't parse.

Fillip

It was just my test post:

The mention works, but clicking on my own username (either in the mention or top-right corner of the forum beside "welcome,") causes that error to show.

I'll have to test this out further, probably over the weekend as I'm a bit swamped at the moment :)


Fillip

Take your time! Thank you for the awesome mod AND great support :)

edit: The error is just for the administrator account. When users click on admin name they get that error on a black screen for a few seconds, and then the profile shows up with error above header. So when I'm logged in as admin, I get the same error when clicking on my own profile.

if i would turn off this option in profile of post?

There should be options to turn off postbit integration in vBulletin Options. If not, then it's a Pro feature.

Fillip

when i enable this mod, my smilies show a strange " smilieid="340" class="inlineimg" /> along with the image. can anyone help?

Seems like the post cache is changing or something.

What happens if you edit the post, remove any such errorenous code, then re-saving the post?

Fillip

same :(

I disabled the usertags. everything works. when i enabled usertags and clicked on edit, the " smilieid="526" class="inlineimg" /> appeared again in the body of the message. I edited it over and save but the resulting message still has that class=inlineimg.

Well I have no idea why this could be happening, it's the first time Ive heard of it...

Fillip

may be that smiley of yours has @ in it.

^ nope.
after a lot of error and trial, i made the following plugin inactive and all is fine now. strange.
Render [MENTION] BBCode


update: oops .. spoke too soon. altho the smilies are working OK the usertags are rendered useless with the above step. :(

what does $do_smilies do in the following code found in the above mentioned plugin:

Get the same on my install :(
Vbull4.03

We've gotten various reports of problems with that particular plugin, I'll post back when I have more information.

Fillip

Thanks DragonByte As this is a superb mod and one we would like to use!

You da Dragon! Thanks for your continued support.

uh. awesome. it updated xd

is there a way to disable mentions in quotes?

what happens is that one guy mentions someone in a post, that post get re-quoted several times, and the person gets notifications for being mentioned in a quote... I think that's unnecessary.

also the render BBcode plugin will break the Email bbcode.

if you write [email]p@p.com[/email]

and :p happens to be an emoticon, then the email will not display properly.

There's currently no way to block mentions in quotes, but we're going to improve the mentioning in the future, which also goes for the email business.

Fillip

This suddenly stopped working for me... all of the mentions that were working before have turned into [MENTION]@username[/MENTION] in just plain text.

Any idea why that would have happened?

The way mentions are created was updated, that could be why. It hasn't happened for anyone else though...

New mentions still work fine I trust :)


Fillip

This thread was updated on Aug 5th, I updated the mod on my forum around Aug 17th... so I'm sure I have the newest file.

I just tested it with a new post, it shows up at @username plain text, no link or notification.

Hmmm... I don't think anything has changed on the forum that would have affected it, but I'll try disabling other mods to test.

Nope. I just disabled all the mods I have, and problem with the mention still exists. Weird.

In the past when people have had this problem, they never post the solution, just "nvm it works now" so I sadly have no idea what they are doing.

Check under User Tagging's Forum Manager to see that you've enabled it for all forums, perhaps?

Fillip

OK, where is the user notified that he/she has been tagged in a post? I've tagged by sample account multiple times and he doesn't get any PM's.

There's no PM notifications, the notifications act like other notifications in the dropdown.

Fillip

Yes, it was enabled... so I unchecked them all, hit Save, then checked them on again, hit Save... and it works now.

Maybe it just needed to be refreshed? I have no idea why it suddenly did that, but I'm happy it's working again! :D

this is an awesome mod so thankyou...
but how do i delete tags? i tagged a post as i was testing the mod but now i cant remove the tag...
any help?!

There's currently no way to un-tag users from threads. To remove a Mention, you can just edit it out, however the user will have already been notified.

Fillip

Any idea when you might have time to look into this, Fillip?

I'm majorly swamped with the new product I'm developing, but once that's released this will be among the first things fixed :)


Fillip

I had to disable this product (again) cause it is messing up with standard vBulletin features (again).

This time, the pagination of an article in vBCMS goes missing if this product is enabled.
