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

You'll still have the quotes, but not the settings.

I have no idea when the next version will be out, sorry. :speechless:

I only changed the hook to global_start. Everything else is working except this error when i click view all. Any clues please?

Edit the "Random Quote" plugin, and after the last line add this

PHP Code:


			
$threshold = '';

Sweet, works like a charm now.

Thanks

Figured out my error...

I had forgotten to revert the old templates from the previous Quote It version for 3.0.x

Great hack!! Totally loving this

Cyricx · #87 10-19-2005, 03:01 PM

Ooo!! Idea for ya!

Quotes: xx

in postbit

Basically kinda like post count, but quote count

Sure it'd involve adding a field to the user table and then adding a way to increase the count when adding a quote and decrease the count when the quote is being deleted

But that would certainly up the traffic on the quotes

Cap'n Steve · #88 10-20-2005, 04:18 AM

Good idea. It sounds pretty easy to do, so it'll probably be in the next version.

Apart from the default templates (which I've since edited to my liking, see attachment) this is a great hack. Thanks Steve! :up:

I took today a good look at the templates quote_listquote and quote_listbit cause I wanted to change them to fit the look of my forum better...
The problem with the looks ot this -otherwise excellent- mod is that it uses it's own CSS classes!!!! Why do so and not use vbulletin's classes? It would fit much more if it was done this way and it would also save you the time to make your own CSS classes from vbulletin variables...

edit: Also, by the way, how can I set the default sorting method to show new additions at the top?

Anyone know how to stop the link to "Submit to Quotes" from appearing when a user is viewing their private messages?
