The rogue phrase is one of many things that will be fixed in the next version. I know it's taken a long time, but it's getting close to being done. ;)

Good to hear. I really like the plugin. Looking forward to the new release. :)

I guess there would have to be an update to the a VBA module aswell?

Jaks :knockedout:

Hello. I wanted an option to switch off the rating system as it takes up too much vertical space on the forum pages. How can I do this?

Guess this doesn't work with 3.6 :(

You can disable the rating system in your admincp.

Thanks for the heads up about 3.6. I haven't even downloaded it yet.

This works fine at least if you already have it installed before upgrading to 3.6, I haven't tested a fresh install. :)

Question:

Can you set it so that only administrators can view the quotes.php page?

Maybe I should just do an <if> tag on all of the content? ;)

You could do that, but it'd probably be better to do this:

In quotes.php, find
after that, add

I think you might be linking to the wrong file or something. There aren't any instructions on how to add it to the Quick Moderation block. But besides that, I can't seem to get it to work at all. No errors, its just invisible.

I add and remove modules and create my own all the time. So I'm familiar with vBadvanced. But for the life of me I'm not sure why this block isn't appearing at all.

I've got RANDOM turned on in the vBulletin Options > QuoteIt and also in the vbulletin options>vbulletin options>forumhome

But I'm trying to get it to appear in the vBadvanced home page. I don't want it in my forums so I haven't edited those templates to get it to appear there at all.

Only thing I can figure is that with the "THRESHOLD" boxes, it says to leave it BLANK yet when I delete the ZERO and hit save, when I go back, there is a ZERO again. But making those a 1 or 3 has no affect. :(

Quick moderation instructions are in the README.html file, in the second part.

Could you post a screenshot of the options you filled out for the Random Quote module?

As for the Clean File Output, I've tried it both on and off.

Here's the snapshot.

And as for the instructions in the 2nd part you are talking about, you list it as vBindex so I assumed that was some sort of other portal system. Not sure what "2nd part" you are referring to.

I'm not sure where you're seeing vBindex. In the main post, there's a link to the fourth post in this thread where the vBadvanced instructions are attached. In the README.html file from that post, the instructions for quick moderating quotes are below this heading (which is in red):

For your other problem: Try setting Use Module Shell Template to no. If that doesn't work, try doing the modification to the FORUMHOME template. Does the quote show up there? Do they show up when you go to quotes.php?

WTF? Okay, I'm an idiot. I must of kept opening the wrong zip. When I saved them to my PC, the only difference is the ! in the file name. And I was reading the one that showed how to add the actual vba module and on that readme, it shows the vbindex instructions too. Sorry.

And as for forumhome, the quotes don't show. The box and everything does, but the actual words don't. Its just a pair of "" in an empty box. And yes they appear when I do the quotes.php and I can add them just fine. They just won't show. I'll go try the shell OFF right now. If I don't reply, that means it still doesn't work.

Nope. Still no luck. Help me Oh Mighty Man of Quoting :)

So you have quotes in the database, right? Try running these queries, replacing $TP with your table prefix, if you're using one:

[sql]UPDATE $TPsetting SET
value = 1
WHERE varname = "showquote"[/sql]

[sql]UPDATE $TPsetting SET
value = ""
WHERE varname = "totalthreshold"[/sql]

[sql]UPDATE $TPsetting SET
value = ""
WHERE varname = "averagethreshold"[/sql]

Not sure if this has been asked, but how do I get the quotes to come up on every page? right now they're only coming up on the front of the forum..

Is there a graphic for the "Submit to Quotes" line that comes up in each thread? If so, where and how do I use it?!

GREAT HACK!

Alright, got it working in ForumHome finally. Thanks for the DB edit.

As for the vbadvanced part, its odd. Its not even "calling" the quotes.php file at all. I view my source code of my vbadvanced page and its nowhere in the file.

AAN - This post has instructions for adding it to other pages.

ambrosious - Not right now, but I'm working on one.

MortysTW -
In modules/quote.php find this
and replace that with this
Then turn Clean File Output on again. If that doesn't work, then I really don't have any idea why. You might want to ask the vBadvanced guys.

Getting this error:

A moron admin deleted my entire forum and this was after a backup soo... yeah.

Do you have the Random Quote set to use the golbal_start hook? If that's the case, you need to edit that plugin and add this at the end:

Thanks, I'll try that and tell you how it goes. :)

Working fine. Thanks. :)

I made this button, but I'm using the old school buttons, I don't like the new ones.
http://www.driveaddictforum.com/gif/submitquote.gif

To get it to work, I used this in the postbit
Also, I changed the Phrase "Submit_to_Quote" in the phrase manager to say:
"Submit Quote to Hall of Fame"

Works Great! Love the Hack!
Thanks :)

Does this work with 3.6 and if not, what changes would need to be made? This is an awesome mod!

It may or may not work on 3.6. If you're worried about it, you can just wait until the official 3.6 version is released, which shouldn't be too long.

This does not work for me on 3.60. This is really too bad.

Any update on this please? ;)

While I can't verify if it works installing it fresh, I do know that it works fine on 3.6.1 here already installed..

Can't wait for an update on this, Capt! Been a year since last, man time flies..

I'm having some trouble with the Javascript right now, but it should be on my site soon for a beta test, and then released soon after. There's quite a few changes, so I want to make sure it'll work smoothly.

Hum, I take it back... In uninstalled a couple of hacks, and looks like it is working now.

Hello Cap'n Steve thanks for this hack and for the others.

I want to do some Please help me.

</if>

or

$randomquote[context]

but nothing happens

pleasa help me .How we can do that.
Thanks

You want to add the random quote to the link interceptor template? This post has instructions for adding the quote to any template.

yes..thank you Cap'n Steve.I'll try.

yes its done..thank you again.

Steve, whats the word on the new version? Should i wait or intsall this one?

It depends how patient you are. I hope to have it open to the public for testing within a week and then released a litle while later. There's no harm in installing this one and then upgrading, though.

10-4, thanks

I have had it running on my 3.0.7. board for a long time and it's always worked great.

It's up right now on http://forums.monkeycrap.com/quotes.php. Any feedback is appreciated.

How would I get all the quotes out of a database on an old board and insert them into the database on a new board?


Also, why is doesn't the outline color around the title bar match the outline around the other title bars. I made my own style by editing color in the css. But can seem to find where the setting is for this border color.
