well i haven't tested this mod with forumrunner, so can't really tell but i expect it to work if it doesn't then i am here to fix it.

[fevredsuk]

ok mate i'll give it ago because currently the one i am using doesn't hide in the latest threads sidebar block or when searching a members posts

Hides allover the forum.

just a few issues

1. image not showing in editor Edit / sorted
2. I only want to use showtogroups - can I disable the hide tag and keep only showtogroups so that i only have 1 button in the editor
3. I have hide mapped to showtogroups but for some reason using [showtogroups] or [HIDE] on their own doesn't work even though in setting i have groups 5,6,7 set as default if members dont choose a group.

[dwx]

I made a quick change to use the 1.72 version of jquery hosted on google's CDN. (http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs.../jquery.min.js)

All seems fine after doing this, do you foresee any problems?

This is a great extension to VB. Thanks for making it!

As far as I can see you cant hide the [HIDE] tag only map it to another therefore its always in the editor. As i only want to use [SHOWTOGROUPS] I dont see the point of having a HIDE button and a SHOWTOGROUPS button doing the same thing

I can give you the url here but it will be of no use to you Click here I can make you an account and send you the details in pm

well you can disable hide button also if you want.
Under usergroup Manager, uncheck HIDE TAG for every usergroup.

To Fix SHOWTOGROUPS ISSUE UPLOAD THIS NEW XML

No different mate, if member dont select a usergroup the message just posts has

[SHOWTOGROUPS]TEXT[/SHOWTOGROUPS]

also denying all usergroups ability to use hide tags doesn't remove the icon from the editor and it can still be used

go in admincp -> settings -> hide hack settings
select default usergroups and save it.. (after saving it will rebuild settings)
