Advanced Warning System (Beta Version)

Advanced Warning System


IF YOU ARE RUNNING vB 3.6, THERE IS A NEW THREAD FOR THIS HACK UNDER THAT VERSION. vB 3.6 USERS GO HERE:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=124477


This is a direct port of the Advanced Warning System, as it was implemented in vB 3.0.x. This port has all the features of AWS version 3.4.16, except the Notes.

For a complete description of AWS capabilities, please refer to the following thread:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?p=574374

The vB 3.5 compliant version of AWS includes:

1 Product XML (17 Plugins, 107 Phrases, 26 Templates, 43 Settings)
1 ACP Navigation XML
1 PHP Functions File
3 Images
2 PHP Frontend Files
1 PHP Admin CP File
1 PHP Mod CP File
3 PHP Cronjob Files

This port would not be possible, without the help of KirbyDE, to whom I am greatful. KirbyDE will also be responsible for supporting you here, with questions related to this particular release. Also, this port would not have been possible, without the help of Juan P hernandez, who offered me a free test system, in which the porting was performed.

The hack has been tested and it is believed to be bug-free, however since this is a major hack, I release it today (September 9th 2005) as beta.

I hope you all enjoy it.

History (Productversion)
3.5.b
Initial Version

3.5.b1
Fixed a typo that caused Errors in User Datamanager.
Fixed a wrong object reference in functions_warning.php

3.5.b2
Fixed a Bug that caused PHP Error Messages.
Fixed a Typo in the Install Code that causes mySQL Errors.
Updated the Template Edit instructions to be (hopefully) compatible with RC3

3.5.b3
Fixed User not showing up in automatic warning PMs
Fixed 2 missing Phrases
Fixed Hidden Warner being Used for Automatic Warnings
Fixed "View x's Warnings" Button in Usermanager not working

3.5.b4
Removed one unsued Phrase, added one missing Phrase
Fixed a Typo that caused PHP Errors when sending PMs
Fixed a Typo that caused PHP Errors upon Installation
Changed Product ID for Admin CP Navigation XML from vbulletin to aws, so it won't show up any longer if AWS is uninstalled/disabled.

A bug was found which didn't allow you to delete an entered Warning Type. Bug fixed in the current distribution file.

If you found a Bug, please report it at http://bugs.kirbydemos.ath.cx

This helps to keep issues organized, which can't be guaranteed if it's only posted in the Thread.
Thank you.

P.S.1: After you install the hack per the instructions, please update your installation with the separate files listed. They are newer files not included in the zip.

P.S.2: If you want to use the Notes feature, as it existed in AWS 3.4.16, please install AWS per the instructions in the zip file, and THEN follow the instructions included in the warn_notes_update_instructions.txt.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Please keep in mind that this hack is not supported. What this means is that I have no obligation to support it. The reason for that, is because I have no access to a vB 3.5 system any more, so I can't work on this hack any more. Andreas (or KirbyDE) who undertook the support of this version of the AWS hack in the beginning, is obviously too busy to support it. So you are on your own, at least as far as the interaction with vB is concerned. If you have an issue with the hack files themselves, I'll do my best to solve it, but without a test environment, it is not easy. So users of vB 3.5 beware!

P.S. May 31st 2006: The zip file uploaded today, should contain all the debugging done by Delphi, so it should be fine as it is. You do not need the other files listed at the right, only the zip. Download it and follow the instructions in it, for installing the hack. I leave the other files there, just in case some one needs them, they will be deleted later.

The package released by Delphiprogrammi should be the latest AWS version? Do I have to apply those fixed mentioned previously?

And I can see that a lot of sentences are hard-coded into the code, which makes them more difficult to translate. Examples are:

+ Add Note for $post[username]
+ View $post[username]'s Warnings
+ View your Warnings
+ The following notes have been entered for this user
+ Moderator
+ Moderator Note
+ Time
+ Remove
+ You appear to be the Collector of this site. Under which ID you want this message to be send?

Could you make them into language phrases as well, Delphiprogrammi? Much appreciated for this

i am already doing that so far the add warning page uses phrases.They can be used to translate the original into your own language you want to use (warningtypes and warning lists already uses phrases)

and you just download the zip reimport the product XML (set allow overwrite to yes) upload the files from the zip

done (hopefully)

I downloaded the zip file, and inside there is a readme.txt, which shows how to edit templates (postbit, postbit_legacy...). Those phrases I found are in these template editing.

If I have to perform template editting as readme.txt instructed, I will have problem with translation of those phrases Or do you mean I dont have to do those template editting? Note that this is the fresh install of AWS on my board!

Thanks!

the phrases you mean aren't there yet.I am busy with it and i have to test all the changes i have made.You don't want a crashing database do you ? :knockedout:

The phrases already used are build into it they are currently

• Issued Warning List
• warning Types List

you will have todo all templates edites as instructed in readme.txt
