I would like very much to have the capability of installing multiple QuoteIt! databases within the same domain. These would be wholly independent of one another, but still function within the same VB database. I assume this would entail different database prefixes and possible duplication and renaming of key QuoteIt! files to maintain correlation to the intended access. Is this a feasible effort or a manic pipe dream?

I'm not quite sure what you mean. You want multiple QuoteIt! installations within the same MySQL database? Would they be accessed through the same quotes.php? What would the actual differences be between these databases from the user's perspective?

I hope I'm not duplicating a prior question so, apologies in advance: Is there a means by which one could insert something in the signature field to have these quotes randomly work for a couple of 'chosen' users? Thanks!

You should be able to use the [quotes] and [randomquote] bbcodes in signatures, but you can't limit them to specific users.

Thanks Cap'n but I'm having a tard moment with this:

Allow Quote BB Code No is everywhere in the Signature Permissions visible on the user entry screen (UserCP). I've went through the permissions I can't seem to find/toggle the appropriate entry...

Could someone spell it out clearly enough that Stevie Wonder could see it? [randomquote] in a signature would translate into exactly what I'm looking for

Thanks for your assistance, patience and tolerance!

Well, ordinarily the option to enable quote bbcodes is under "QuoteIt! Options", although now that I try it on my site, vBulletin 3.7 seems to have broken something with the bbcodes. :( Can you get [quotes] or [randomquote] working anywhere on your site?

Nope (although I admit I've not tried it extensively) - I did notice that attempting to edit the keys and values from BB Code Manager was interesting.

{R1211286651:0}
{R1211286652:0}

[quotes]42[/quotes]
{Q1211286651:42}
{Q1211286652:42}

Neither seems to allow an Edit (as opposed to the creation of New) - The system states that "quotes" for instance, already exists. So, deleting them was a thought. At first glance, they appear to delete however, a subsequent shot at re-entry states that they're still there and in fact, they mysteriously pop back in ...

(This is under Custom BB Codes)


Yours work in the FAQ display? (Mine does but I'm too new to find how it's called)



**** UPDATE: I uninstalled and found that my editing capability with BB Code is back. Could there be a header issue? I'd love to get this one working on 3.7

The entries in the bbcode manager are just for show, the actual bbcodes are controlled with plugins. You're right about the FAQ; for some reason that's the only place the bbcode seems to work, which is very strange. I'll have to investigate more as soon as I get some free time.

Good luck with the free time! Let me know if you get excess as I need some too..
Thanks

Yes.
Not necessarily. If the table references necessitated a duplication and renaming of functional files, then that would be acceptable.
My site is dedicated to an author. I have even customized the standard QuoteIt! entries to accommodate MP3 readings and forum thread references. The random quotation block is limited to these quotes. I would like the ability to have a separate quote database of alternate source material, with the access controlled by my own menu and labeling efforts. I have ruled out separating the material within a single database by the author field alone. I want the initial database purely dedicated to a single author. Possible?
