What This Mod Does
This mod inserts the javascript in your header template, saving you from having to edit or revert your templates every upgrade.

It also has built in conditionals to allow you (or your users) to configure who the script is active for

Currently supports

• Disable for guests
• Allow users to enable/disable from their options
• Set which usergroups to show the bar to (i.e only to members who have donated)
• Set a postcount at which the bar is available
• More coming soon...

How to install

1. Import the xml
2. Register at wibiya.com, and configure your toolbar
3. It should give you some code that looks like the below to insert into your header
   
   Code:

   ---

   <script src="http://cdn.wibiya.com/Toolbars/dir_####/Toolbar_#####/Loader_######.js" type="text/javascript"></script><noscript><a href="http://www.wibiya.com/">Web Toolbar by Wibiya</a></noscript>

   ---

4. copy and paste this into the script box found in your admincp under Settings>Options>Add Wibiya Script
5. Activate and configure the add on in the same screen

To allow users to turn the bar on and off

1. Do all the steps listed in install
2. in your admincp go to "Add New User Profile Field"
3. Select "Single Selection Radio Buttons" and fill in the following
   (you can change these as you see fit but these are my setup)
   • Title: Wibiya (or whatever you like)
   • Description: Turn the toolbar at bottom of page on or off.
   • Profile Field Category: Doesn't matter
     
   • Options:
     • On
     • Off
   • Display Order: Doesn't Matter
   • Field Required: No
   • Field Editable by User: Yes
   • Private Field: No
   • Field Searchable on Members List: No
   • Show on Members List: No
4. Save that, and note down the name (note this isn't the title and should be something like "field13"
5. Go back to Settings>Options>Add Wibiya Script
6. Fill in the What is the fieldid box with the name of your field
7. Fill in the disabled text (in the example above this would "Off" without the quotes)
8. Select Yes to allow users to enable/disable toolbar

How to upgrade

1. Import the xml, set overwrite to allow/yes/on
2. Check the settings at Settings>Options>Add Wibiya Script

Notes
I will support this modification but not Wibiya... if you need help signing up or using the service... You can find help on the wibiya.com website.

Do not remove the attributation link...

Please note I have nothing to do with wibiya, I just needed this for my forum and thought I would be nice....

Just installed... not to bad. I will let it stay on my forum for now.. see what happens.. it is extremely clean, I must say. I like how it shows what users are viewing what. and where they are..

...instaled and nominated...

Can we get a screenshot of what it looks like.?

Just go on one of the websites that have said thanks....

i.e http://www.braniteljski-forum.info/forum/forum.php

Although you should note you can remove the "Powered by Wibiya" in the toolbar

Will look into this for you

You sure you meant to post this on this mod and not my Woopra one?

This is an excellent Forum Add-on!

Yea it is.. I like the translator for the members, cool add to the bar.

thanks! i love it :)

...how???...

Bah you used to be able too (back when I setup my bar).... they've turned off this option unless you pay :(

The product already actually features that, just change which way you put the on/off in the options profile field.

(look at step 3, under allow users to turn on/off)

how to remove copyright from footer?

I like this a lot and I wish I could use it, but my site took a major performance hit when it was activated. After running page-speed, I noticed that with this enabled, it took 6 points off my score. =\

Nothing against this plugin as it works flawlessly, just the service.

A couple of my forum users can not see the toolbar and the option to view it is On. Does anyone have a suggestion to fix this?

PM me a reason why and i might give you permission to... but I worked hard designing and coding these mods so the least you can do is leave it in as a thank you.

Its the additional dns lookup to call the script from an external domain.... it shouldnt slow down page load by that much though... just like any other javascript does (eg google analytics)

This is more to do with wibiya than my script, can you advise me which browsers/os's there on?

Firefox 4

Odd should work fine then... as it's what I use.

Can you confirm through admincp that they've got it turned on...

and also if they go to wibiya.com if it works their?

I should have some time free this afternoon so will register for your forum and test it myself :)

Have you got the enable/disable options setup properly? i.e on AND the field filled in?

I know it is working because it works great for me but for some reason a select few can't see it. I use Firefox 4 and it works but a user using the same can not. Makes no sense.

Thats what makes me think it's something to do with their machine does it work on wibiya.com for them?

Or if there technically minded can they see the script in the source code?

Small update:

Now Supports checks for

• Set which usergroups to show the bar to (i.e only to members who have donated)
• Set a postcount at which the bar is available

And you can now use different options i.e instead of on/off

after upgrade to 1.1 firefox doesn't show it anymore but IE. I check NO on "show to guest" but it's still showing...what did I do wrong here guys?

Can you post a screenshot of the settings page, as it's working exactly as intended on my install

Also can you make sure you go beyond the first logout page when your trying it as guest

p.s Mark as installed

Hi,
I got it works now after trying to uninstall and reinstall it.
I didn't set "usergroups" or "Show to people above X posts" and check "No" on "show to guests" it is still showing with guests.
I did mark as installed.
Thanks!

So is it working correctly or not?

if not can you pm me a link to your forum.

Excellent. Superb tool for the users.

I am not able to get the latest posts from my forum showing in the app. How does that work?

I beleive you just configure the app on wibiya.com and add your rss feed

It was working fine, ttran just needed some help with configuring the plugin

Thanks! I got it works now :)

@nitra100: the Photo Gallery on Wibiya only support Flickr and Picasa I wonder if it can support Photobucket as well?

Thats really up to Wibiya, I'd suggest you take a look through their support sections.

excellent!

Installed for testing along with your other mod .. "apture" ...

Nice add-on and different from "apture" ...

Note that it has the same problem "apture" mod has in that it needs to be activated by each user going to profile and saving settings at least once. Perhaps do the same change you did with "apture" with default ON?

Thanks ... :)

Regards,
Doug

slows the site down. displays in all boxes like upload pic ect, just gets in the way.. so I uninstalled it. I liked the translator in it though and it was a nice looking tool bar.
