Thanks for your reply David

Does the mod cause many queries? For example if there were 500 people online at once on a board would it cause the baord to slow down?

I have the mod installed and works great so far, think im going to get pro!

Found a bit of a strange bug, the sideblock works fine until I enable everywhere sidebar, then it disappears..

It doesn't cause many queries at all. I doubt it would impact greatly on your site by having it installed!

Could we have an option to rebuild the stream so posts which have been edited after posting can be updated? Also how about a paginated archive either unique page titles?

[cherylferraro]

I'm interested, this seems very useful.

Tagged and will revisit later to see how it develops.

is there a way that User can delete his own status updates from the stream?

smilies don't work in stream

I installed this on a client's website and found out that placeholder (predefined text in status bar in header) is not a supported HTML attribute in IE (does not display Status...). If anybody is having this problem as well, below is the fix. The code is not mine, it's a jQuery fix.

Open template headinclude and at the bottom add:

<script type="text/javascript">
/* <![CDATA[ */
$(function() {
	var input = document.createElement("input");
    if(('placeholder' in input)==false) { 
		$('[placeholder]').focus(function() {
			var i = $(this);
			if(i.val() == i.attr('placeholder')) {
				i.val('').removeClass('placeholder');
				if(i.hasClass('password')) {
					i.removeClass('password');
					this.type='password';
				}			
			}
		}).blur(function() {
			var i = $(this);	
			if(i.val() == '' || i.val() == i.attr('placeholder')) {
				if(this.type=='password') {
					i.addClass('password');
					this.type='text';
				}
				i.addClass('placeholder').val(i.attr('placeholder'));
			}
		}).blur().parents('form').submit(function() {
			$(this).find('[placeholder]').each(function() {
				var i = $(this);
				if(i.val() == i.attr('placeholder'))
					i.val('');
			})
		});
	}
});
/* ]]> */
</script>
