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

Is there a way for us to run it purely as it's own script?

I disabled the hack, and can still go to the quotes.php file, vote, browse, submit one, etc. perfectly. However, when disabling this hack it also removes the admincp option fields and the moderation section (but these can be loaded if you know the url). Can we have an option to just use this as an add-on as well to save the homepage 2-3 queries?

What would be nice is when you add quotes from the postbit the line of (quoted) text is already present in the quote textfield.

Alien - I'm not sure what you mean. If you just set Show Random Quote to no, it won't show up on the homepage but you can still do everything else.

Nuclion - Did you have an earlier version of this hack or was it some other quotes system? If you're using the Submit to Quotes link in a post, the quote and author fields should be automatically filled out, is this not what's happening?

NuclioN · #55 10-05-2005, 07:00 PM

No Cap, that's not what's happening. I've re-installed the updated version and the quotes are visible om forumhome, however when the link in postbit is used no info is put into the textfield. No author and no quote... it's totally empty.

Glad to see this!

It's working fine on my test forum, can I get a link to your forum?

Don't ask me how this is possible but after changing the style it worked ok in the postbit (??)

Before i started using the quote it hack i had a quotation database with images. When i tried to link the images in this hack it was like this:

"<img> quote"

I didnt like it. But as you can see there is a big gap on the left of the quote where there is enough space for a picture. How can i do this? It will be great if there is a way.
Thank you by the way for this great hack!

*i also posted this at 2.0 because i am interested in both versions

Hmm the quote post link isn't transfering variables right.

It comes up with the author text box empty

and the message text box just says "Array"

The edit quote link does the same.
