Forum Display Enhancements - Colors For Usergroup In Forum Last Post

You like colored usergroups? Looking for mods which add it in different paces? Like to have last post author colored in forum display?

So came and get it!
This mod shows usergroups HTML markup in forum last post author

Simple and Easy! Just install last release of product (see number at the end of filename)
No template modifications
And... please click Mark as Installed - thanks

Enjoy!

Version history:
1.0.1 Fixed issue for phrases (you don't need to update - it is for new installations only)
1.0.0 Mod released

Known Issues:
- When you change usergroup for user who made last post, or change usergroup markup, then it is not updated in view till new post arrives in forum. It means, that in case of such changes style visible in last post will be the old one. It is because it is cached, but only till new post arrives (then will be cached new value). I have it in TODO list, but because of performance issues probably I will leave it this way. Even when somebody notice it, it will disappear fast (assuming that people are writing on your forum )

I Think Is Very Important to Send a PM to All Users that Downloaded and to those that Installed this Mod for them to Check this Anomallies on their Boards; some of them should have them and don't know (not yet noticed this errors) or don't know what caused them, and ask them to Report Back in case they are experiencing them.

As I said and Stangger5 too and g0dfather1984 too, this Problems started since this Mod was Installed in Our Boards; something happened and this are the consequences; we Need Solutions.

Something is breaking the $vboptions[bburl] and $vboptions[bbtitle] in Activation/Password Reset emails but I doubt it is this mod.

Thanks for pointing out that I had a problem inciarco I fixed it by editing the activateaccount, lostpw and resetpw phrases

We all Got this Error Exactly when we Installed this Particular Mod; and also the Error that don't Displays the Username when Loggin in (You Have that Error Too On Your Board).

Thank you for logging in, .

Click here if your browser does not automatically redirect you.

No USERNAME on the Login Welcome Message.

Check the PMs from your Users (right Before and After Installing the Mod) and ask the Latest Registered Ones (right Before and After Installing the Mod) to send you a Reply of the Activation and Welcome Mails, and Verify if Before the Mod Everything was Fine and After the Mod the Errors Begun.

In My Case Applies as I Wrote 5 Posts Above, and the Problem Begun Exactly AFTER Installing the Mod; it's Not Only Coincidence and we Need Solutions, (You, Stangger5, g0dfather1984, and who knows how many more, that's why I think is a Good Idea to Notify Users to Check those Errors and the Ones we've Reported on their Boards).

I Asked also Stangger5 and g0dfather1984 to make the Verifications, (You can Check the PMs with the Mod to Read PMs from ACP, I use that Mod to Catch SPAMMERS).

My Best Regards and Hopes for a Solution.

This is Not happening to All Boards but a Few Ones; for some Unknown Reason (perhaps during the Install Process) it Happened to Us (4 Boards with the same Errors).

It can't be said that is because the Board was Working, because my Test Board is Disabled and No User Besides me Access it; I also Ran the Upgrade php File on the Boards and Nothing Happened, (sometimes that Routine Corrects things); so we Hope that vBulletin Gurus and Webmasters that had this same Problem and Solved it or that have some Ideas on how to Correct it, can Tell us What we can Do, to do it and Hopefully Correct the Errors Caused by This Mod.

I'd say that Installing this Mod is a Risk; I'd Recommend Making a Complete Database Backup (with a software such as MySqlDumper), and Hope that Your Board Don't Get Damaged like Ours Did; of course, Test it First in Your Testing Board, but Make the Backup Copy of your Real Board Before Installing this Mod, and After Installing Run a Routine such as the one to Ask for the Username and Password Change, and Create a New Account with the Activation Code Request Activated on the ACP, and Check if the Username is Not Displayed on the Login Welcome Message that is Presented when You Login, (I Posted one a few Posts Before), and if You Get that Error Report it Here.

My Best Regards and Hopes for some Pointers on What We Can do? What Table and Fields on the DataBase Should we Check? What Tables and Fields on the DataBase are the ones that Control this Functions (that Replace the mentioned vBulletin Variables when Sendind a Mail and a PM, and also when Displaying the Username on the Login Welcome Message).

This mod is the one cauing the problems..

I found and fix the problems and then reinstall this mod and it killed everything again..

It is killing the phrasetype table...
I had three pages in the phrasetype table,,,then when I install this mod,,it only has 15..

Any phrasetype that doesnt have a product,,is deleted...

This Confirms it.

Why is it Happening? What Part of the Mod Triggers this and Why in some Boards and apparently Not in Others (Webmasters should check the "phrasetype" table to see if it's Damaged or Intact containing the Phrases not associated with a Product that have an Empty Value in the "product" Column of that Table)?

How can this be Fixed??

How can this Table be Reconstructed?

Do we have to Fill the Table Manually, or is there a way to Correct it in some other way?

I Hope the Author, Moderators, and vBulletin Gurus can Provide Us a Solution. :up:

My Best Regards.

[inciarco]

I Confirm the "Phrasetype" Table Losses:

I Confirm that the Phrases that don't Contain a Value in the "product" Column are Being Deleted.

In my Backup Copy of my Board Before Installing this Mod I had 104 Registers (9.1 Kb) in the phrasetype table, and Now I have 44 Registers (4.1 Kb).

If I get this Table Right it mentiones the Names of Phrases of other Installed Products (in the product column), so it should be causing Anomalies in other Product Variables not being included in some Places, is that right?

Is there a way to Fix it? (besides Restoring an Old Backup and Losing All Changes made during that Period )

My Best Regards.

I do believe Stangger has found a way to fix this. I'm sure he will let you know when he has time.

Thank the Lord, it is annoying to deal with all of these issues.
