QuoteIt! 2.0 - Quote Management System

QuoteIt! version 2.0

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. This was developed on vBulletin 3.0.7, but should work on 3.0.0 and above.

You can see a demo on forums.monkeycrap.com.
Instructions for adding a random quote to vBadvanced and vBindex are in this post.


Features (features new to 2.0 are in yellow)

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
- the quote shown is much more random than in previous versions

Quote Database
- quotes can only be edited or deleted by an administrator
- quotes can be viewed individually or listed on several pages
- quotes can be sorted by total score, average score, author, submitter, or date added
- quotes now have a "context" field that can be turned on or off to include more information about the quote
- 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 administrator can now edit quotes
- the quote moderation que is now more like the que for posts, enabling the moderation of several quotes at once

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

You may release translations of this hack as long as the original credits are included. Otherwise, you not redistribute this hack without permission from me.

I inserted that and it hasnt worked . . .

Sorry my mistake it does work i just put it in the wrong place.
Ok 2 problems now
I've put it in a table how i get the table top and bottom 1px border to be automaticly adjust to table border colour?
And how do i make the table smaller because something keeps making the table taller than the text by like 5px and i dont know what it is.

The spacing is probably caused by either the cellpadding ot cellspacing property, so try setting those both to zero. I'm not sure about the other one, try reading up on the vBulletin $stylvar variable.

[The-Ensemble]

Thanks.
Ok changed to "0" and nothing changed, and cellspacing was at 0 anyway.

Getting this problem before & after code edits during installation... I click install and this comes up.

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/intothin/public_html/admincp/install_quoteit.php on line 73

[Cap'n Steve]

It sounds like you're installing on the wrong version. This is for vBulletin 3.0.x. Do you have version 3.5?

[TPOCJames]

Oh, yes, yes I do. *sigh*

Is there a Quote Management system that works for 3.5?
