Fan Fiction Forum
Fan Fiction Forum
Specific forum for fan fiction entries! Version: 1.0 Author: Joeboo (Master Jawa) (This hack was requested by Matt) This is a pretty simple hack.. you can specify a certain forum that you wish your users to use for posting fanfics, stories, etc. Then, the users can post their stories and specify a rating for their story (PG, PG-13, etc.) Screenshots: Below this post Demo: N/A Special thanks goes to eXtremeTim, since i used a snippit of his download hack code. Dont forget to click Install! |

Nice one... I might use this (as soon as I fix my bloody errors on my forum) :(
|
Would be sweet on movieforums :)
|
Thank you, thank you! :D I really appreciate this :D
|
IMO, the admin option for this would be better below "Count posts made ... counts?" as Use rating certificates? instead of it being in it's own category. That way, it would be more suited for it to be used in game review forums, movie forums - pretty much anything that used rating certificates - as well as of course, fan fics.
Excellent stuff joeboo.. :) |
Any way to not have the rating showing up if the user selects N/A? Its just I have it showing on the sticky in that forum..
|
The option to select a rating isn't showing up for me in newthread...
|
Hmm.. you sure you did the file edits right? And specified a forum to use the rating system? I tested this twice and didnt get any problems..
|
any chance your going to port this to vb3?
|
I probably will when the final version of vb3 comes out
|
I just rehacked newthread.php and its still not showing the rating list, although editpost is working fine :-\
Is it possible to select threads in the forum that don't have the rating? (Mainly forum rule sticky threads) |
You must've messed up somewhere, maybe in the template edits?
I just tested it out on a test board and so did a friend just now, working fine :) |
If a story is rated, say, NC-17, will users under the age of 17 still be able to read it?
|
How its coded currently they will be able to yes.

Good idea but you'll find over 50% of the people under the age will lie about their age of just change their birthday so they can get in...
|
Well it didn't work for me no matter what I did so I don't know how you managed to get it working. I had to move the code someplace else and add newthread_rating to the templatesused but in order for it to work for me.
I managed to get it so that the ratings don't show for stickys as well. Thanks for working on it though :) |
Can somebody please explain something to me? What exactly does this hack do? It looks to me like the way normal forums look. What am I missing here? Why will this hack make my stories forum any better?
|
I think it is just a hack which enables more fanfiction features, for say a fan fiction room at your forums... one being the rating system.
|
It allows your members to select a rating for their story from a dropdown when creating a new thread in that forum. Then it displays that rating underneath the title of the thread on the forum display.
Something else that could be worked into it is a different postbit maybe, and being able to input a short story synopsis that can go under the title as well. |
So, how is this rating different than the one built into vBB? I have a rating in each thread.
|
It isn't like a thread rating, it gives say a..."maturity rating" you can select. Like in movies kind of. PG, PG-13, NC-17, ect. ;)
|
I run a play-by-post RPG site and this feature works in nicely as a disclammer of sorts for thread content. Violence, adult themes, etc. Good Job on the hack and thanx alot. **Hits Install**

Nice hack, worked well in 2.3.4. Two thumbs up!
|
Just wondering why it says "walue" in the last two/three templates... ? It seems to work okay, regardless, but that seems a bit odd.
