What does 'Marking As Installed' do ?

* It helps you to stay on top of updates - members who have installed modifications will be notified whenever new updates are available.

* For security issues - vbulletin.org will contact all members who have installed a modification whenever a security issue is brought to their attention.

* Marking a modification as installed also helps me know how many people are using my work, giving me extra incentive to provide more features and new modifications.

I appreciate the support!

If you are going to convert a template edit modification to an automated template editing plugin you've to ask the original author of the modification FIRST before copying all/part of it's codes.

Personally I don't have any problem if you asked me before publishing your mod, You're vBulletin.org Advisor so you're the first person who should be bound by your forum rules !!!

I did not copy any parts of the code, in your mod or any other mod. :)

You did NOT ? Anyway as I already told you I don't have such a problem of using some of my modifications codes, However if anyone looking to use some of my codes he needs to contact me first.

Ok, well here is some info for you:

Permission to use image:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=158112

Some threads that were around before your mod:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=161571
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=142948
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=75103

And if I was to have used your code, it is reusable anyway, so I would not need permission:
https://web.archive.org/web/20090204...d.php?t=201339

I can appreciate you wanting to protect your mods/code, but you better make sure you know what you are talking about before you accuse someone of stealing your code. :)

plugin from dbtech does something like this

ozzy47

11-06-2014 08:06 PM

Ahhh, yeah I did add something similar in that mod when I coded it.

this is cool, installed nominated and rated :)

only thing I would suggest is that icon is next to notification, after nick name

Problem with moving it there is it sometimes breaks the layout on some sites.

Good one.

That's the only reason why I am still using the other mod with the template edit instead of this one. I have a different color background behind the top links so having it outside of that looks out of place.

I understand your reasoning though.

tommyxv

11-14-2014 11:09 PM

Maybe it can be done with a conditional and option in the settings.. "If it screws up your style/layout" use this option instead? LOL

ozzy47

11-14-2014 11:12 PM

It's possible, I can look into it. You might want to subscribe to this thread, in case I update the mod.

I made this plugin a while ago on my forum before you released it ozzy. Not sure if this is more simple or not.

Code:

if($vbulletin->userinfo['pmunread']){

$find = '<li class="welcomelink">'; 

$replace = '<li class="welcomelink">

    <a href="private.php?"><img border="0" src="images/newpm.gif" width="22" height="10"></a>';



$output = str_replace($find, $replace, $output);

}

12-08-2014 09:35 PM

About the same thing, mine is a bit more involved as far as the html to make it render correctly in all browsers. :)

Hey Ozzy i have db notifications installed will there be a conflict with that or will this be fine to have them both

ozzy47

12-13-2014 05:13 PM

It should be fine with both. :)

12-13-2014 09:31 PM

I have DBTech's vBNotifications and use template modification and everything works just fine, so I guess this will work just fine with this mod also.

Just you need to know, this mod and template modification are "passive", so you need to reload page that PM icon become visible. Bun with vBNotifications it isn't so, they are "active", so you would receive PM notification as soon as PM is received (of course, depending on setting this isn't 100% instant, to save server resources).

ozzy47

12-13-2014 09:34 PM

That is correct, this does not use ajax to load the image. :)

LLent

12-21-2014 10:30 AM

Hey ozzy i run db notifications and i just put this in some of my members like this notification and some like the other would it be possible to add a user setting to disable this if the others wished to do so
