Miscellaneous Hacks - [DBTech] Forum Live Feed & User Wall v1 (vB3) [AJAX]

Forum Live Feed & User Wall lets you see a continuously updated feed of activities on the forum, with a powerful set of customisation options for sources of information.

Uses
If you've wished for a Facebook-like feed for your forum, this mod is for you.

This mod adds 2 distinct features to your site. First a live feed showing actions performed by everyone on the forum, from new threads and posts to things like new avatars or signatures, your members can customise their feed and keep up to date with everything that's going on, right as it happens.
Secondly every user also has their own wall that displays what they have been up to. This lets users see what their friends have been doing and join in!
With advanced privacy configuration options and configurable preview options for each content type, this mod compliments other modifications like InfoPanels and produces a more detailed and verbose feed of the happenings on the forum.

This is what I got for my forum, too. I don't know why is it bugging the vBAdvanced if this is just part of a php file on the forums section, but who knows. Until someone finds a fix and the remove statuses/censorship is added, I have to keep it disabled.

[DragonByte Tech]

I've uploaded a fix for the vBAdvanced issue, please re-download the zip file and re-upload /dbtech/livewall/hooks/process_templates_complete.php

There should be an update out tomorrow that adds status deletion and implements the vBulletin censorship as well

Since there is no sidebar in vb3, is it possible to implement this Live Wall within this sidebar mod? - https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=204773

Thanks

[DragonByte Tech]

If you post this as a feature request over at our forum we'll take it into consideration for future versions


Fillip

[hpidriver]

Very well, I'll do that.

btw, on your forums I noticed you have separate comment space available for each post in a thread, is that a modification?

[DragonByte Tech]

That's a Pro-only feature (the entire Comments system is)

Dear DragonByte Tech,

Is this mod can somehow be replacement of visitor messages feature of VB?

And also I wonder this block could be used with VBadvanced?

[DragonByte Tech]

I'd have to say the answer is no to both questions. This mod does not feature the level of persistence and history viewing the VMs do, and it does not have a vBAdvanced module at this time.

I was under the impression the Comments system only appeared within this Live Wall.
So this mod also adds the comments inside each post for every thread also?

[DragonByte Tech]

It does, yeah
