Mini Mods - Timeshift Posting

What does it do:
You can do a Post or Thread for a further time. Enter Date and Time and your Post will create on that Date/Time.

This is a Beta-Version and I used it in vB 3.7.0 Beta 4 (maybe you need some "small" Modifications on the Templates).

It is avaible in 2 languages: english and german
The Documentation is in german - so if you have any problems, i will try to translate it.

Sorry, but I can't give any Support here.
For Support try http://www.php-unlimited.com/showthread.php?t=875
(German Site with english/german Phrases)

Coroner

added: Instruction (translated) -> READ.ME.txt (rename to HTM)

P.S. deutschen Support gibt es auch bei your-vb

Tested in my Test Forum with vB 3.6.7 PL1 and doesn't Work!!

The Options to Include the Date the Post/Thread to be Posted don't Appear!!

I Followed all the Steps and made all the Changes in the PHP Files, as well as Stablished all Permissions for Interested Usergroups, and Nothing Happened!!

Are there any Templates that need to be Changed?? (In the instructions you name the PHP Files but not Templates to be Changed; you should check that because I think you missed the Template Changes needed to Show the Text Fields to Introduce the Date and Time for the Post/Thread to be Posted)!!

Is there a Code that some Plugin look into a Template to Replace/Add the Code this Mode Use?? If so, which Code and in which Template should I Check it??

You Should Test this Mod in vBulletin 3.6.7 and/or 3.6.8 to Verify this!!

I Hope You Can Fix it, for now I wont use it in my Forums; the Idea of the Mod is Great and would be nice to Use it once the Bugs are Corrected for vB 3.6.7 PL1 and/or 3.6.8!!

My Best Regards!!

Have you installed TMS ? For all my MODs I use TMS (Template Modification System).
It will change the Templates automaticly.
And yes, there're some template modifications.

Hope, that help.

I Know TMS, I even Try it in my Test Forum, but I Don't Like It because I Always Document all the Changes in my Templates MySelf, so I Prefer Manual Edits and 100% Personal Control of Template Edits!!

Could You Please List all the Necessary Changes in the Templates to Make this Mod Work, so that I Can Test it, Please??

In all Mods that Support TMS, I've seen that Authors always List the Template Changes in their Manuals or at least in the Thread Instructions of the Mod, so that Users that don't use TMS can be Able to Make all the Necessary Template Edits and Use the Mods!!

I'll be Checking this Thread for the Template Edits List, to Fully Test the Mod!! :up:

My Best Regards!!
