Screenshots for Mindestic GlosPro 1.2.0.

Thank you! I noticed a small bug. In the search box, the default text shows this phrase all the time: /(\$style\[css\])/

Is there a fix for this?

Also how do other members submit a term?

To upgrage for the vb 3.5.x users do we user this version GlosPro 1.2.0 3.6E.zip or this version GlosPro 1.1.4 3.5E.zip ?

soletrader: Thank you for the error. I will look into this some more but I don't see the problem. Does anyone else here have the same problem? As for submiting terms users need to click on 'glossary tools' and there will be options there. But they require permission first before it will show.

bada_bing: Use GlosPro 1.2.0 3.6E.zip if you are upgrading from the other version for 3.6.X. The other version is for those still using the older forum version.

Awe think I answered my own question 1.1.4 3.5E.zip is the correct version for 3.5.x boards.. Thanks for the quick release.

Yes thats correct bada_bing and your welcome. ;)

I have just upgraded to 1.1.4 for vb 3.5.x and I dont see some of the new features like Minimum Search Characters ?? Did I do something wrong?

Version 1.1.4 is a very small update. Basically it only has the fix for the missing delete template. All other new features are only on version 1.2.0. You can upgrade to the 1.2.0 version, it should work but not tested.

Awe man ):= really...... Im afread to upgrade to 1.2.0 on a 3.5 board without prior testing....

Well the code is almost the same as the other version. The only issue that I came across from 3.5.X to 3.6.X was that the headinclude template, when it was a fresh install, some of the code was changed and I had to change the manuel about doing a fresh install. Other then that it should work. Before trying tho I would backup the glossary database just in case.

OK so I upgraded to 1.1.20 on my 3.5 board and it doesnt seem to work, No errors but when I post a word that is in the glossary it is no longer highlighted or clickable :surprised: any thoughs

WoW, big job on this hack, congrat ;)

Wonderful hack.

I just wish it could be done in plugin form so we don't have to keep reinstalling every month when VB comes out with a new version.

bada_bing: Okay check headinclude teamplete and look for the following:

If its there also recheck the settings. Also note that crosslinking will not work is your are not logged in as well if the option is not selected in the usercp options.

Allan: Thanks!

RVSmarter: Thanks! Well most of the hack has plugins but I can't have plugins for all of it to work right. :/

Hi

This hack looks great.
I have installed it, however the crosslinking inside posts and threads does not seem to work.
I have made all necessary template changes you described in your install.html and uploaded all files.

Do I understand crosslinking correctly, that as soon as in a post a word is used that is listed in the glossary, it gets linked to the entry in the glossary?

Any help is appreciated and thank you for this nice peace of work

StarBuG

StarBug: Thanks! Crosslinking, which is still buggie, should work inside posts and threads. Please do note that you do need to turn it on before it will work in the settings. As well with the new features added to this version, only logged in users will be able to see the crosslinking and there is a new usercp option for people to turn on/off for the crosslinking. Let me know if there are still issues and I will look into it.

Incredible work! Thanks! ;)

Hi

Crosslinking is activated in the glossary options, it is activated in my usercp options, I am admin and logged in.
And in the post I wrote to describe the new feature to my staff I made an example to show how crosslinking looks like.

Unfortunalty it still does not work

I think you should make it an option if guests can see crosslinking as well.

I have a german forum, what about umlaute, could they create a problem for crosslinking (I tested words without umlauts too)?

Thanks for such an awesome mod...........

I have checked my headerinclude and the code is there, settings are correct.. What might I check now?

One more Bug

The crosslinking option in the userCP can't be switched off, maybe this has something to do with the crosslinking not working properly?

Tested both on Firefox 2.0 and IE 7

projectego: Thanks!

StarBuG: In the next release I'll be doing some more work on the crosslinking feature to fix other issues however with it not working at all I'm not sure why. Now there hasn't been any errors showing up correct? You have uploaded all files? Made edits the 'headinclude' template and added the main CSS codes? If so try the following:

1. Go to glossary settings, on 'Glossary Crosslinking' select 'Yes'
2. Forum Post Glossary Crosslinking select 'Yes'
3. Display Crosslink Trailing Image select 'Yes'
4. Crosslink Display Limiter leave as '-1'
5. Select the Glossary Options in the usercp to a checkmark if its not already.

Let me know if that changes anything. If not, best thing for now would be to disable the feature until next release. As for the other bug, it looks like something might be missing, a plugin maybe. I will test this out and see.

hotwheels: Your welcome!

bada_bing: You can try the solution for StarBuG. If that dosn't work, you'll need to disable the feature until I figure out a solution for it. Don't understand why its not working for the both of you. I will need to see if anyone else is also having issues.

Great work. No use to me, but I wanted to point out that I personally wish that everyone who released a modification would lay it out like this. Features, Screenshots, and Change log all being in a separate post is much nicer, imo.

Thanks KTBleeding. Just try out new ways to display my info, think I'll stick with this layout, like you said much easier to find all the infomation I think. :D

That is exactly my setting but it does not work.

Any eta for the next version?

Hi SS9267547,

Yes, I get this error too - you can see it here: http://www.thinkstop.com/community/boards/glossary.php

Also the crosslinking appears to work on one entry but not on any others. Do you need to do anything while adding a term or is it automatic? Is it retroactive or will it only affect new messages/entries?

Thank you for this wonderful add-on :)

Regards,
Renada

StarBuG: Okay I'll have to review this issuse. I'll target the next release for next Monday but can be sooner if I can figure this out. ;)

Renada: Thanks for the link. Will sign up to see the issue first hand. See right off the bat there is that search feild problem that soletrader reported, looks like a template issue, will have to fix that. Also a java erorr with the crosslinking. Will take a look.

SS9267547,

Tried the setting you suggested to StarBug and same think "does not work" I also noticed that I do not have any options about the glossary in the usercp ?

I think since your older version was at least working I will downgrade to that version until these bugs can be worked out...

Crap not to say the worst.. Just downgraded to the current release of 1.1.4 for vb 3.5 and now it still does not work which tells me there are issues with the uninstaller...ERRRRRRRRRRR I just want to go back to a working version of this product...and now im totally broken

Ok so I attempted to uninstall the plugin totally and start from scratch loading all the files from the vb 3.6 version of this hack and reinstalled the plugin First I loose all my glossary terms which im willing to now deal with after +++++ing a storm but I still get the same results, im just tired now.

Great mod, thanks!
If I click a letter to limit the display how do I get back to the full list?

bada_bing: Couldn't you have waited a bit till I figured out what this issue is? Mind you so far I can't figure why some people are having the problems they are since I installed the script over a few times on my serever and nothings wrong, so I'm tired as well. Anyway please wait for the next update, also remember to backup the database before doing anything next time. ;)

dilbert: I'm not sure what you mean? If you want to get back to the main list you can follow the navbar links at the top?

Let's say I have two glossaries, Glossary A and Glossary B.
I selected Glossary B, then clicked the letter D. After I am done viewing those entries, there does not seem to be an "All" letters link. I need to go back to the glossary list, then select Glossary B again.

Is that correct? If so, maybe a future enhancement to include All?

Again, thanks for the great mod.

Yes I understand and my mistake for upgrading prior to testing, it's just that I have hosed my users now totally from this great feature. I went from a great working feature to totally dead. Not your fault and I appreciate your efforts, I guess im just a bit frustrated, as im sure you are also.

dilbert: Good point. Something that has been missed lol. I'll have to look into that. Thanks.

bada_bing: PM me, I want to send something to test on your server.

Replied to your PM

this is very good but can you make this highlight feature to show the specific chars of content except the "this is a term click this"
