vB 3.8.1 PL1
Installed with no problems :)

Would also like to echo Keyser Soze about the duplicate name.

Thanks for the mod

Remove '$post[username]' from the vBStatus edit you made to your postbit or postbit_legacy template. Just make sure you remove the right one, and only one.

Otherwise, I've clicked install on this one but I've currently got it disabled on my forum until a few tweaks surface. Namely, the ability to clear a status update like you can on Facebook is needed in my opinion. Oh, and I haven't been able to get the in-line editing to work either and the 'edit' link in the pop-up window really should be changed to something else like 'save' to make it more logical for your average user.

Just a heads up for vBSEO users:

You must add the vbstatus folder to your exception list in the vBSEO control panel or this will not work.

I've done many of the suggested tweaks and still can't get the edit to work in Firefox.

Great hack idea if someone with more knowledge than I could get this kinks worked out.

thank`s :)

suggestions:
1. how about..hitting "enter" key saves the status. right now it saves when we press the eidt key again.
2. also need a "clear" button. to clear the status
3. remove the duplicate name...under the username.

thats all for now. great mod!

Marked as installed :)
btw, few suggession from me.

1. insted of user name better display status : keyword before the prefix.
2. should have an option to selet a status message color.

does this work for vbulletin 3.8.x by any chance?

Has the character limit been added on the latest version? Thanks.
