But I have been using it for a couple days fine

you must make a couple changes to it though once you install it, in BOTH plugins

alter line 2 or 3

that reads...

PHP Code:


			
if (!in_array($this->info['forum']['forumid'], array(105,83,121,110,82,112,109,101,102,72))) {

this will filter out private forums you don't want the public to see when a post is made, so add/remove the forumid's you wish to hide.

one last edit is the SQL insert in BOTH plugins, change the '2' to whatever userid you would like to show the posts as. I would setup a postbot and link it to that userid.

PHP Code:


			
$vbulletin->db->query_write("INSERT INTO `" . TABLE_PREFIX . "vsa_chatbox` (`userid`, `userip`, `message`, `dateline`, `textprop`) VALUES ('2', '".$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']."', '" . $vbulletin->db->escape_string($message) ."', ".TIMENOW.", '');");

Thats all

I will try this now but I dont' understand why it says 2 plugins but I see only one xml file

kiwi1342 · #**853** 03-10-2010, 08:55 AM

OK I figured it out. Here are the steps:

1. Download the replypost-notification.xml which you'll find here https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=765

2. open the file just downloaded and edit it as explained in the post. Be carefull that there are two plugin in this single xml file which means that you have to edit the text for both plugin ( search for 'forumid'], array(105,83,121,110,82,112,109,101,102,72)) inside the document and you'll find two results)

3. once you edited it save the file and go to your admincp page

4. scroll down to the end and go to Plugins & Products --> Download / Upload Plugins

5. scroll to the botton and upload the previous xml file. You should see now the "VSA New Reply" and "VSA New Thread" plugin in the list.

Job Done

yes

as xplained in the original post you should change only the number insidde the bracket. If you want to NOT show notification for your forum id 57 you should remove all those numbers and write only 57

Excellent kiwi!
Love that

Also change text color if you use white background as me or it will be white text on white background.

Nobody will help me with that "Smilies list" problem mentioned above?

I have this problem - https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=848

I don't understand your problem sorry. I visited your forum and I don't have the option to select smilies (maybe because I am not registered) and in the screenshot I don't understand what's going on

I think it is because the coder uses the postsave hookname. I am not a vb coder so we should wait his answer.

Anyway what was the exact problem that you had with smiles?
