Show Thread Enhancements - [AJAX] MFSG - Mod Forums & Social Groups PostBit Popup

MFSG - Mod Forums & Social Groups PostBit Popup (AJAX)
Created by civil78

What it does?

Replace usertitle in post with a popup menu that contains the forums that post user can moderate and the social groups to which they belong.

This mod designed to take low resources from the server because it uses AJAX technology. Only if a user clicks in the usertitle of a user post, execute the query to find if Moderator Forums (if the user is a moderator) and Social Groups. This is means that there no extra server load when a user just see the posts. Also when a user clicks in usertitles and then clicks again, the query executed only one time. In the second time takes the data from cache.

I hope that you like it, and please Mark Installed if you finally use this mod.

req:
think you could get something for USER PROfILE?

[civil78]

User profile it has already a Group Memberships table in the right column to show the social groups that the user belongs. Look at the vBulletin Options --> User Profile Options --> Enabled User Profile Features--> Social Groups checkbox.

Maybe I can make something to show the Moderator forums there. I think about it but I can’t do that in the next days because I make some add-ons for my site now

Nice mod, but I have a problem:

For some users (without something in common) it does not work, instead of display the social groups, shows (in plain text) something like this:

<script src="clientscript/mfsg_postbit.js"></script> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" align="left"> <tr align="center"> <td id="usergroups_32355" class="smallfont"> <a href="/comunidad/showthread.php?t=1634&amp;nojs=1#usergroups_32355" onclick="findUser(53,32355)">User title here</a> <script type="text/javascript"> vbmenu_register("usergroups_32355", true); </script> </td> </tr> </table> <div class="vbmenu_popup" id="usergroups_32355_menu" name="ug_53" style="display:none" align="left"> <div id="popug32355" name="popnameug53"></div> </div> <br>

Other thing, could be this put in the pop up menu of the username instead of the usertitle, perhaps as an option.

Thank you =)

Hi, I notice that in another forum (GrendelKhan{TSU forum) but it doesn’t appears in my test forum (its clean install forum) so I can't look what could be wrong on that .

I have to see this problem to appear somewhere that I have access to play with the code and options to correct it.

The problem looks like appears in the progress of passing the template in status title. I use the fetch_template function to change the status title from default to custom code and for some reason returns &lt; instead of < and &gt; instead of >. So it breaks the html code and returns the html as text.

See your pm for more instructions for an idea that maybe corrects the problem.

I have to look how it works the mechanism of this popup and to see if this is possible. I check it out for future versions. But maybe I will have a little problem with ajax support of this module. What I mean. The popup window generated only when the user clicks on the status text. Only in that reason execute the php code and ask queries from database. For that reason this popup don’t increase the cpu load by viewing only the pages. The username popup is a pre generated code that executed every time the users view a page. So if I put it in there I don’t know if I can keep the ajax goodies .
