QuoteIt! - Quote Database · **Released**: 10-04-2005

QuoteIt! version 3.0

QuoteIt! allows you to have a database of quotes integrated with your forum. Users submit quotes that can then be voted on by the other users, using your choice of two rating systems. The average installation will show a random quote on the forum home page, but you can include it on any vBulletin page or on your portal home page.

If you'd like to see a demo, go to forums.monkeycrap.com.

Features:

Random Quote
- a random quote can be shown on any vBulletin powered page
- the administrator can set a default rating threshold that quotes must meet before showing up as the random quote
- a new random quote can be chosen at a specific interval of time, to reduce server load

Quote Database
- quotes can be searched, filtered, and sorted by many different criteria
- quotes have a "context" field that can be turned on or off to include more information about the quote
- quotes can be embedded in posts with bbcode
- each post and private message now has a "Submit to Quotes" link that allows users to quote things said on your forum more easily

Quote Ratings System
- quotes can be rated either plus/minus or on a scale from 1 to 5
- quotes below a certain total score or average score can be filtered out

Quote Management
- quotes can either be automatically approved or moderated
- the quote moderation que is like the que for posts, enabling the moderation of several quotes at once
- usergroup permissions are used for adding, editing, deleting, rating and viewing quotes
- most actions use AJAX to avoid page reloads

Don't forget to click install!

Currently known problems are listed here.

The files needed to edit the included images are attached to this post.

This hack is based on QuoteIt! 1.2, originally by magnus. The "submit post" feature was inspired by an addon by CtrlAltDel.

Other versions (development will continue for the 3.6 version only): QuoteIt! 3 for vBulletin 3.6.x | QuoteIt! 2.03 for vBulletin 3.0.x

I tried again and now it works...

Looking good..

Only other suggestion I could make is correcting all the xhtml invalid code using the w3c validator.

There's a large amount of invalid code that appears pretty easy to fix..

GREAT JOB!

Yeah!! In the postbit and postbit_legacy:

Replace the code as:

Code:

<!-- BEGIN QuoteIt! -->
<a href="$vboptions[bburl]/quotes.php?do=submitpost&postid=$post[postid]">$vbphrase[submit_to_quotes]</a> 
<!-- END QuoteIt! -->

Now, it should work.

For those who want "Submit to Quotes" option to show up only while viewing the threads, you can use the following conditionals in postbit and postbit_legacy.

Code:

					 <if condition="THIS_SCRIPT=='showthread'">
<!-- BEGIN QuoteIt! -->
<a href="$vboptions[bburl]/quotes.php?do=submitpost&postid=$post[postid]">$vbphrase[submit_to_quotes]</a> 
<!-- END QuoteIt! -->
					 </if>

Enjoy !!

but it isnt a postbit edit Its on the actual; forumhome template for me

Vizionz · #49 10-05-2005, 07:32 AM

i fixed it myself in the xml.

Cap'n Steve · #50 10-05-2005, 07:43 AM

The reason I changed it was because that's what was causing the rating problems. But it looks like that only works in the conditional tags, so I changed everything else back. Boy I wish there was some documentation for this.

Serious conflicts with stuff from an earlier quote we had. The link in postbit shoots us nowhere, the page will not appear with that code. Then we see old quotes from the previous version and after submit there's a database error. Missing context sql etc.

Is there an uninstall to make room for this new quoteit ?
