Another excellent hack by bad_madman. Checking it out now ;)
*installs*

This looks very good, I just installed. The only thing I would like to disable is the public viewing of book marks, how might I go about doing this? I really don't want somebody posting a nasty bookmark and make it public..

Or actually, to disable public viewing would all I have to do is remove the option for it in the bookmark page, when creating a new bookmark?

I do have some suggestions also, it would be really cool to have a link on every thread page, or maybe if a combination of keys was pressed like ctrl+b, that would bookmark that page/thread you were on and save it in your bookmarks. Man this would be useful ^_^

ooo i like

[high]* Brad clicks install button

anthor great hack from you :)

I just installed it and I must say, installation was a breeze with the included installer... It really simplified things.

I do have one problem though. When I click the "Browse" link on my board; it loads fine but I get the following JavaScript error:Other than that, everything seems to be working great. Here's a few screenshots(best viewed with resolution at 1024x768). I zipped them up so you'll need a utility like WinZip to view them.

Thanks for ss Ian. Looks nice.

Hmm. I am not sure. I check this...
:classic: :classic:

Ok....i have installed, and all is working well, but somehow i am missing something.....

how do i get to the Admin Options Screen you show above?

Also, is it possible to add a link to threads on the boards to allow a user to automatically add that thread to their bookmarks?

Installed! 2 words....simply amazing. :)

Great job!!!!!!!

A+++!

Awesome hack!!! Had it installed and working in minutes. Top marks from me too. Thanks for sharing it with us all. :D

Looks interesting.. May install it later.. Anyway, I'm downloading it for testung...

all installs should be this painless... :)

Very nice hack, may use this over at vBT.

Good Job!

I got one heck of a long db error when I tried to install this. I've never had that problem before. Must be something going on with my db, but everything else runs fine. Go figure. I was due for a messup. Never had one until now. :)

Wow this is good.

Installed without problems.

Easily gets my vote as "Hack of the Month"

Thanx
Mike

This is a GREAT hack - easy to install with the installer, and very very well done. Will get my vote! :) Well done!

installed in 7 min, really easy to do, great step by step.

Set "Hyperlink text in member profile" in Admin CP Bookmark Options to "0". Public browsing is then deactivated.

A fast solution for this: Add a hyperlink on each thread. e.g.:
search in template showthread for and add after:Then upload the new bookmarks.php (from ZIP-archiv) into your forums directory...

I get a database error when i do custum templates. I dont no why.

add/delete Templates in Termplate Sets...

\r\n') mysql error: Column count doesn't match value count at row 1 mysql error number: 1136 Date: Tuesday 16th of July 2002 08:30:58 AM Script: http://www.siteurl.com/messageboard/.../sqltodos5.php Referer: http://www.siteurl.com/messageboard/...undo=&fileext= -->

I just noticed the URL to the site it shows me. Why does it say 2 messageboards? This is is weird.

IF no one noes how to fix this can someone make a txt file with all the templates not modifyied by anyone please. This hack looks amazing and I would love to install it soon. Thanks. Please help.

awesome hack with a great installation-script

I, too, got an error. Only mine was about a page and a half long. :) We must have something screwy going on with our dbs. :)
bad_madman is looking into the problem now and I have no doubt we will be able to install and enjoy this hack soon. :)

lol. I think we will be able to install it. We just will have to enter ever template in automatcially and wont have it globally entered into the database. I hope that is what we can do. lol.

This sounds like a great hack! Please excuse my question, but, I am un-sure as to how the end user will use this.

Will "web links" be an available button somewhere in the forum? I hyperlink perhaps? How does the end user use this nifty new feature?

Thanks!

- Gerry

is the current zip file fixed with all bugs gone?? :D

Jep. The zip file is up to date:
- database error when add custum templates is removed
- bookmark thread feature added
- new option in Admin CP Options: Enable/disable URL format check
Edit:
to update for new admin cp option and bookmark thread feature:
Run the installer (sqltodos5.php) again, but only the first step (Add tables/rows/fields in SQL-DB). That's all. Replace the old bookmarks.php with the file from zip archive.

Awesome thnx!

No matter what I do, the last editied is stuck at

. I have cleared my cache, restarted the thread (numerous times) and nothing changes it. Yes, I even tried the shift key trick. Looks like I won't be able to run it. :cry:

Ouh other time zone *hehe :nervous: Download the file. It is certainly the latest version.

Still no go. I've PM'd you with the error file.

The links shows in the user profile and in the users control panel. For me it's an awesome link because I travel a lot and my site is about travel and whenever I run off to another country I always have to make up a private page on my web server or carry a floppy of important links that I need. (i.e.-to pay bills, run a business, etc...etc..) I can't remember them all.

Having a way where I can do this on my own forum and be able to access it worldwide, saves me and my members loads of time.

Cheers
Mike

I still have the prob too. PLease help.

Boofo tests at the moment :classic: . He has the same problem. Can you also send me the error log (PM) - pls :knockedout:

It's working great here now. Thanks bad_madman. Whatever you did, it seemed to fix it. :)

I don't see where the link is for other member's to view your shared URL links. We didn't modify the getinfo template so how are the other members going to see the link? Just wondering.

Also, I installed the original version - do I need to run the installer again to add the new setting options? If I don't want the new options, can I stay with the original bookmark.php file or should I upload the new file? Thanks.

You find the link in members profile for the user (see screenshot). The hyperlink is only visible, if the user has public bookmarks and 'browse public bookmarks' enabled (in admin cp options). You don't must change the template 'getinfo'. The hyperlink in members profile is made by the change in the file member.php (customfields routine).

Yes. Run the installer again, but only the first step (Add tables/rows/fields in SQL-DB). That's all. Replace the old bookmarks.php with the file from zip archive - this is better.

Aahhh... should have seen it... that is very smart, using the customuserfield to do this. Good idea! :)

Ok, i installed the hack when it first was posted. then i added the links to add the thread to your bookmarks. When i click add to bookmarks, it brings me to the my user cp, add bookmarks, but none of the fields are filled in. I downloaded the latest file in post 1, re-ran the first step of the installer, uploaded the new bookmarks.php file, and it is still the same. Shouldn't clicking add to bookmarks fill in the url?

Never mind :paranoid: I could have sworn I uploaded the new bookmarks.php file. Guess i didn't... :knockedout: Works fine now.. :banana:
