Add-On Releases - vBulletin-Glossary

What is vBulletin-Glossary:

A professional glossary with features like :

• crosslinking
• attachments in entries using vBullstin attachment system
• searchable by using the vBulletin standard search
• edit-history just like in wikipedia
• synonyms to combine crosslinkings to other words
• optional entryfields for more details of entry
• vb-SEO compatible
• etc.

Installation:

- Upload all files in 'upload' to your server

- set 777-permission for the following directories:

• /vbglossar
• /vbglossar/backup
• /vbglossar/temp

- Import 'product-vbglossar.xml' in AdminCP as Add-On.

Right after the import of the productfile, go and set the usergroups. Afterwards edit the setting in AdminCP (Settings and Crosslinking). Now go to 'manage categories' and create the wanted cats.

Now the glossary should be configured and ready to use.

Updates from previous versions:

Follow the instruction of a new installation, also check the file permissions. After importing the product (overwrite: yes), check the grouprights and the settings of the glossary as there are some new features. In case the entries won't show up, please rebuild the datastore in the tools-section of the glossarin in admincp.

Template Modification:

Edit template 'search.css' and check for the following text

/* as post */

Please include the following code above this:

.threadinfo.glossaryentry a.threadstatus
{
background-image:url({vb:stylevar imgdir_searchresults}/search_results_glossaryentry.png);
background-position: 11px 6px;
}

General:

This addon has been developed by the follwing people (a-z): Andreas, Captainslater, G?rome, Surviver and me. We spent every free minute for this project (coding, translation, tests, etc). Also MrD and Ragtek have tested during the time when this addon got developed.

In directory '/tools' you might find a usefull Script by G?rome. User of vBCMS will find a module for their portal in directory 'vbcms' which shows a random entry of the glossary.

History:

• 1.0.0 - First version
• 1.0.0 PL 1 - Fixed Version by G?rome, users can't write unwnated entries anymore.
• 1.0.1 - overwork of the code, now working with datastore and datamanager. Also we included some small new features into the addon (e. g. revert entries, inlinemod, etc).
• 1.0.2 - overwork of the code, bugs removed, a lot of new features
• 1.0.3 - fixed more small bugs and added new functions (create threads for discussions, more options for crosslinking, better options for mods/admins, etc).
• 1.0.4 - bugfix-release.
• 1.1.0 - added more main-features (synonyms can be used now, optional use of entryfields within categories, PDF-functions included, vB-SEO kompatible, TOC-list, etc)
• 2.0.5 - Version for vBulletin 4.x with additional new features, bugs fixed.
• 2.0.6 - Version for vBulletin 4.1.4 with small bug fixes.

guys, if you want this mod to work, you have to look into my post: Post #278

Both members suggested a fix and I used the fixes and now things are fine.

P.S use the new product version made by murrtex in his post #259 and the updated version of vbglossar.php by Seductor in his post #268

Cheers

P.S: I had an error after upgrading to vb4.2.1 so I decided to share with you the fix.....
You need to download this php file in the post #184 and replace it with old one here:
/packages/vbglossary/attach/glossaryentry.php

This fixed my issue and no errors at all...

I believe you need to modify your css for vb glossary mod. you can give us a link to your forum and pass you the modified css if you like,

if not, then you need to search your css templates for glossary and use chrome Inspection element tool through right click and see what needed to be edited and changed,,,

Hi,

Glossar is work perfectly on my VBulletin 4.2.1
http://www.soudeurs.com/glossaire/
http://www.soudeurs.com/glossaire/1-soudage/
But it's not possible to use Glossar with DragonByte Tech Forum Ads because there is a incompatible problem with the word-key

Regard.

As this mod is marked, un-supported, i don't think it will happen anytime soon.
