New Posting Features - [hide] hack incl post thank you "addon"

UPDATE
sid's [hide] hack 0.3.5

Hi again,

I've tried my best to build a [hide] hack that will fit to to
the wonderful POST THANK YOU HACK

but for sure you can use it without, then it'll work if user replies to a post with hidden content

You can coose in acp to show hidden content to admins mods or users of a certain usergroup (if you have useradmins or something) too.

It will show up some hint that will let your users know what to do (thank, answer, or even nothing)
by now with some small text, soon with a set of images

BUT

• my english is way off what I want it to be, so please go ahead and edit the language file to your needs

NOW UPDATED

Thanks to Andreas of vbhacks-germany

• no hidden content visible in archive
• no php edits necessary no more
• kicked out bitfield-code
  
  and further
• no hidden content visible in printthread.php if not in showthread.php
• now with a set of small images showing up as hint
• and least updateurl in acp

have fun

cheers

ps Sorry for updating that fast

UPDATE 0.3.0
uninstall previous version before installing the update!
So, here's what you've all been waiting for *grin*
Tha ajaxified version of my hide hack.

BUT, this is rather bruteforcing ajax, so be warned
First: you could fully disable ajax for this script in ACP!
Now how it goes, it checks the length of pagecontent every three seconds (usersides, no worries about serverload here), and if it finds some new "content" like a filled thanks-box or a new post it calls all the posts that have hidden content (of this page only of course) and tries to refill the postbits,
this causes some sql-queries, almost as much as to totally reload the page itself.
AS soon as I find a more elegant method I will update again.
Nothing else was changed though since 2.6, only modified in handling the ajax-request.
If you encounter any problems with the ajax of this script, just deactivate,
no javascript at all then will be loaded from this script, and you'll have a "normal" version in hands.
(size is due to an pic-install-help-image )

UPDATE 0.3.5
reduced querys,
smarter installations code.

that's all

cheers
'sid

PS If you encounter any problems not seeing thanked posts hidden content after reload,
try this codechange

PPS Sorry, Support only for those who clicked "install"

Give a Version of your Hidehack for 3.8.x? Sorry for my Bad English

[Al3li]

thank you !

[intensecool]

Please update this version for vbulletin 4.0

[Xtrigit]

Edit: nevermind

It would be nice if the hidden content would only be viewable by authorized usergroups and still be hidden for original posters if they do not belong to the allow usergroup.

+1 for vb4

hello friends!

I need your help, I have installed this mod for some time now. Updated to version 3.5 and works perfectly.

The probelm I've had it now, when one user has deleted from the forum database.

the post that had written in the forum (from the user DELETE) now emerge as "guest User",

and the contents "hiden" are visible to everyone without being logged. (In the post says, "show hiden content").

(This only happens with the user DELETE) (in the other registered users everything goes perfect)

As I can do to fix it?

thank you very much in advance. I hope someone can help me.

regards

Hi there!

I got the updated hack that another guy shared a couple of pages back and, after working with it for a while, I think I have a fully working hide hack, including the AJAX option.

Please, feel free to use it and test it on your sites but keep in mind that:

• This is a beta version that may have some problems that I haven't detected yet.
• I cannot and won't provide any support

Hope this helps.

Found that content is not hidden in the "Latest messages" widget. Will try to fix it whenever I can

LOL, one "BIG" Bug: Content is not hidden when you do search.

I take a look at this Product and find out that the plugin "Andreas hint 4", the hook location "search_results_prebits" does not exist in vBulletin 4...

Please try to fix it...
