Miscellaneous Hacks - Cyb - Auto Reply

Info:
I'm using this to automatically welcome users in my "Introductions" sub-forum. You can customize messages and use it for any other auto-replying needs. You can write several messages (separated by |) and they will be used randomly in auto-replies. This work with subjects too. There are three different Sets of subjects/messages to use in different forums. You can set product to not reply to threads started by listed members, turn on/off signatures, etc... See screenshots for details about features...


To get this working don't forget to:
-Set forum id(s) in product options
-Set poster id(s) in product options

Otherwise it will not work or you'll get error messages.


Note:
-This executes 1 simple query on forumdisplay but only in selected forums.
-Same simple query is also executed when user searches for new posts.


Installation:
-Import XML file (as product) through AdminCP: Plugin System > Manage Products > [Add/Import Product]


To set options:
Go to: vBulletin Options > Cyb - Auto Reply

Hey, this is pretty cool, thanks. Going to install right now.

Just a thought, could this be adapted to Visitor Messages?

Edit: Can we make the time to wait setting random?

Edit 2: [s]Doesn't seem to display the sig of the user posting the message, is that possible?[/s] See this.

Also, nominated.

Not seeing user sig here either. Neat mod!

(I first hardcoded the sig into the welcome messages themselves, but then realized people would be getting an email with the hardcoded sig in it)

You have to make a change to one of the plugins, "Cyb - Auto Reply - RW". Look for

PHP Code:

$postman->set('threadid', $car_threadid);
$postman->set('userid', $car_poster);
$postman->set('allowsmilie', true);  
$postman->set('visible', true); 


And add in

PHP Code:

$postman->set('showsignature', 1); 


Directly under

PHP Code:

$postman->set('allowsmilie', true); 


So your $postman->set section should look like this...

PHP Code:

$postman->set('threadid', $car_threadid);
$postman->set('userid', $car_poster);
$postman->set('allowsmilie', true);
$postman->set('showsignature', 1);  
$postman->set('visible', true); 


Worked for me.

Also, it only works on new posts, all your previous posts wont show a sig unless you modify the post and select the option to add a sig.

Worked like a charm! Thx Voltar...
