Signature Ignore System FREE by BOP5 for VB4
 

Brought to you by BirdOPrey5
www.Qapla.com

This adds a much missed feature which allows users to ignore any signatures they don't like for whatever reason. Some sigs may be too big or offensive, or just annoying- now your users can turn them off user by user instead of having to turn off everyone's signatures in their options.

Demo: http://www.qapla.com/mods/showthread...re-System-Demo (You must register to use it.)

The FREE version has no options. Once you install it, it is active, and everyone can use it.

Then GOLD version has a number of options:

• Enable / Disable the Mod
• Set Usergroups Allowed To Use Mod
• Set Usergroups whose Sigs can Never be ignored
• Option to block users from ignoring their own signatures
• Various options for the location and size of the icons and links

The GOLD Version is available at: Signature Ignore System GOLD by BOP5 at Qapla.com

This is the version for vBulletin 4.x. It has been tested and working on 4.0.x and 4.1.x and should work on all 4.x.x versions.

Added Alt Colors.zip: The default icons are black. This zip contains the same icons in red, blue, green, yellow, white, and grey so you can choose what is best for your styles.

Please "Mark as Installed" if you use this. :)
Donations Always Appreciated. :up:

I just installed it, nothing happend, I can't see the (X) mark

1- make sure the "X" image was uploaded to your style's image/misc/ directory.

2- if you go to Admin CP -> Plugin Manager can you see if a plugin called Hide Hidden Signatures exists?

If so edit it and change the execution order to 1.

If neither of those help Can I get a link to your forum?

Thanks a lot, it is working now :)
I realy don't know what I did! I just follow the steps, it seem I missed something before

btw
I have different color themes, so the (x) can't be seen in black background.
I will make it blinking as gif file (white/black)

Cracking idea :)

I added a .zip file to the top/first post with the icons in alternate colors if you are interested. Red, Blue, Green, Yellow, White, and Grey - all transparent pngs like the original black ones.

I saw it as a feature on IPB and thought vBulletin could use it. :)

Thanks a lot

This looks very interesting. How server intensive it is?

Minimal... no extra queries on page views.

is it possible to make it with text only, without images?
some moderators in my board requesting it.
how can I change it in the xml file?

Thanks a lot :)

In the xml file or the plugin itself find this code:

and replace it with:
Then find this code:
Replace with:
That will remove the icons from the show signature link and replace the X image with a bold text X.

thanks a lot, also thanks for Silencer Groans

You're welcome but what is Silencer Groans? :confused:

isn't Silencer Groans the who translated the hack

:o Yes he is, you are right! Sorry I was very tired when I asked that question.

cool mod

Well done! There's a lot to learn from you about "loading optimization", btw I see a lot of if (true), what does it mean?

The if(true) comes because this is the Free version of a Paid mod with more options. To keep the code more similar between both versions for future updates/fixes there are conditions in this version that are always true. In the paid version those lines would have actual conditions in them.

I see

Installed, working great. Love this mod!

Maaaan, this is the best thing since sliced bread. Been having this exact same issue on my forum. (Big animated signatures are slowing down page load speeds for some members.) You just made my day! Thank you so much!

There is a bit of a conflict between this mod and the Post Thanks mod from DragonByte Tech. The 'Who Thanked' cloud which is below signatures on my forum disappears when you hide someones signature. Is there a way to perhaps resolve this please?

Try this.

Go to the Admin CP -> Plugins & Products -> Plugin Manager

Edit the plugin: Hide Hidden Signatures (under the Signature Ignore System product)

Change the "Execution Order" to 0 (zero) and re-save the plugin.

See if it works now.

Thank you very much! Yes, that did it! You ROCK!!!

Hi Joe, I see on your attached screenshot the text to unhide a sig is centered. However on my forum it is completely to the left. How can I fix that please?

Go to plugin manager in Admin CP, edit the Hide Hidden Signatures plugin.

At the very top add the line-

Should center it. Must have taken the screenshot before I figured out the default location.

And that did it again. Thanks again Joe! :D

This is a good mod. Quick, somewhat related question: Could this idea be applied towards blocking a user's avatar? That would be the the mod that wins the internet. :D

Interesting... let me think about that one.
