3.7 - 3.8 VERSION RELEASED, HERE

What is this!?
This modification will allow you & your members (based on usergroup permissions) to mark a thread as "Solved". It will add the prefix "[SOLVED]" to the thread title, and if set in the admincp - it will also close the thread.

This mod came about, around a year ago - with this thread. But I never released it... until now.

Current Version
1.0.1

Features flagged for future version(s):
  • Thread starter can choose to solve a thread, and input the username of who solved it - that user would recieve rep. points. (admin-configurable amount of rep. points)
  • Given the above - include count of threads a user has solved in postbit & profile
  • Possibly figure out a way to automate everything on install - so there are no template edits.
And anything else that is suggested

Will this work on x.x.x ??
Unless otherwise stated, this will work on all 3.6 versions. I've not tested this on 3.5, but not much changed from 3.5 to 3.6 in this hack - so it should work on 3.5 as well.

Sounds cool. How do I install?
  1. Extract the zip, you should have the following directories/files (in the "upload" folder):
    Code:
    /
    |_ solved.php
    
    /images/
    	/buttons/
    	|_ marksolved.gif
    
    /includes/
    	/xml/
    	|_ bitfield_solvedthread.xml
  2. Upload the files/folders keeping the same structure.
  3. Import the product, product-solvedthread.xml
  4. Make the following template edits:
    SHOWTHREAD

    Find:
    HTML Code:
    		<if condition="$show['addpoll']">
    			<div><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/addpoll.gif" alt="$vbphrase[add_a_poll]" vspace="1" /> <a href="poll.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newpoll&amp;t=$threadinfo[threadid]">$vbphrase[add_a_poll_to_this_thread]</a></div>
    		</if>
    	</div>
    	<!-- / thread tools -->
    Replace with:
    HTML Code:
    		<if condition="$show['addpoll']">
    			<div><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/addpoll.gif" alt="$vbphrase[add_a_poll]" vspace="1" /> <a href="poll.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newpoll&amp;t=$threadinfo[threadid]">$vbphrase[add_a_poll_to_this_thread]</a></div>
    		</if>
    		<if condition="$show['solvedthread']">

    		<else />
    			<if condition="$show['solvedthread_unsolve']">

    		</if>
    	</if>
    	</div>
    	<!-- / thread tools -->

    	</tr>
    		</if>
    	</if>
    	<if condition="$show['adminoptions']">
  5. Set options in AdminCP > vBulletin Options > Solved Threads

I see a problem with solved threads - if a thread is unsolved and a moderator or administrator close that thread because of any important reason, the thread opener can reopen it with using the button 'unsolve thread'.

Could that problem be solved?

Sorry, again ..

If you delete the prefix of a solved thread in case of moderation or what else ever you will get an inconsistency and the threadstarter will get an error if he tries to unsolve that thread.

any idea?

That's because the plugin uses the 'showthread_complete' hook. You could change it to 'showthread_start', should work then.

Upgrade instructions are in the first post, and the 'install.html' in the zip.

I use substr to remove the thread prefix when it's unsolved, that could be causing the error. I'll take a look into it.

I'll fix that in the next release.

Great, thanks :up:

Only an idea, can you use the prefix from "Thread Prefix"?
