Miscellaneous Hacks - [DBTech] Forum Live Feed & User Wall v1 (vB4) [AJAX]

Forum Live Feed & User Wall lets you see a continuously updated feed of activities on the forum, with a powerful set of customisation options for sources of information.

Uses
If you've wished for a Facebook-like feed for your forum, this mod is for you.

This mod adds 2 distinct features to your site. First a live feed showing actions performed by everyone on the forum, from new threads and posts to things like new avatars or signatures, your members can customise their feed and keep up to date with everything that's going on, right as it happens.
Secondly every user also has their own wall that displays what they have been up to. This lets users see what their friends have been doing and join in!
With advanced privacy configuration options and configurable preview options for each content type, this mod compliments other modifications like InfoPanels and produces a more detailed and verbose feed of the happenings on the forum.

Is there a way to hide the What's on your mind for users not logged in, but they can still see feed?

Thanks.

Is there a way in CSS we can hide the What's on your mind for users not logged it?

Also purchased the pro version, but don't like that unregistered can post. Is there a way they can see it, but not post? I might be missing something.

Thanks

I do not expect any support but there are many issues with this product, for example a guy who will change his avatar 10 times in a row (and believe me that kind of nonsense is common) will generate 10 entries and bury other updates. There is apparently no option to prevent that kind of spam from happening which kind of ruins the product and generates a lot of unnecessary frustration and fights. I believe the system should always be designed for the most nonsensical users ever. If a new system generates fights, then it needs to be patched or go.

Fillip,

I'm having the same issue of the footer showing up twice. I went into vbulletin options and I don't see a setting for "copyright footer." I'm running vbulletin 4.2.4. Can you please provide a step by step outlined procedure for implementing the fix. Thanks.
