New Posting Features - [hide] hack incl post thank you "addon"

UPDATE
sid's [hide] hack 0.3.5

Hi again,

I've tried my best to build a [hide] hack that will fit to to
the wonderful POST THANK YOU HACK

but for sure you can use it without, then it'll work if user replies to a post with hidden content

You can coose in acp to show hidden content to admins mods or users of a certain usergroup (if you have useradmins or something) too.

It will show up some hint that will let your users know what to do (thank, answer, or even nothing)
by now with some small text, soon with a set of images

BUT

• my english is way off what I want it to be, so please go ahead and edit the language file to your needs

NOW UPDATED

Thanks to Andreas of vbhacks-germany

• no hidden content visible in archive
• no php edits necessary no more
• kicked out bitfield-code
  
  and further
• no hidden content visible in printthread.php if not in showthread.php
• now with a set of small images showing up as hint
• and least updateurl in acp

have fun

cheers

ps Sorry for updating that fast

UPDATE 0.3.0
uninstall previous version before installing the update!
So, here's what you've all been waiting for *grin*
Tha ajaxified version of my hide hack.

BUT, this is rather bruteforcing ajax, so be warned
First: you could fully disable ajax for this script in ACP!
Now how it goes, it checks the length of pagecontent every three seconds (usersides, no worries about serverload here), and if it finds some new "content" like a filled thanks-box or a new post it calls all the posts that have hidden content (of this page only of course) and tries to refill the postbits,
this causes some sql-queries, almost as much as to totally reload the page itself.
AS soon as I find a more elegant method I will update again.
Nothing else was changed though since 2.6, only modified in handling the ajax-request.
If you encounter any problems with the ajax of this script, just deactivate,
no javascript at all then will be loaded from this script, and you'll have a "normal" version in hands.
(size is due to an pic-install-help-image )

UPDATE 0.3.5
reduced querys,
smarter installations code.

that's all

cheers

PS If you encounter any problems not seeing thanked posts hidden content after reload,
try this codechange

PPS Sorry, Support only for those who clicked "install"

[itsid]

no need to say sorry for nothing stinger.

It's on me to say sorry for trying around so long.
you know, this is not a new solution (this way it worked in v0.1.0) and it's exactly the way it still works in printthread.php.
So I could have told you much earlier ; but as I said above it runs a unnecessary db-query and I hoped I could find a way without re-adding that query again for you.

What to say....
I'll keep your issues in mind for my upcoming version maybe I find a better way, maybe I'll just add that query again (optional)

Cheers

itsid << happy new year and really thanks for this hack
but if u do not mind i have some Questions

- is this hack only for saying: Thank you to view the content ... ???
- is this hack like vS-Hide Hack Resurrection ?? because what i need and looking for Hide_hack force my users to replay ... not to say thank you

i need hack with [HIDE-REPLY] tags defines that the content within may only be read after the person replies. and users must replay [Full replay] to say the content

- my Last question is this hack working Done on vBulletin 3.6.4 ???


----------- thanks alot but iam still new user at vBulletin so . forgive me

[itsid]

hi shankoty,
thanks alot and a happy new year to you too.

Well, yes and no!

Yes you can set this hack to force user to reply to a thread befor seeing hidden content,
no it is not like psionics hack, all options in my hack are admin-options; Users can only choose to use or not use this hack, but not whom to show hidden content.

And of course it is fully working with 3.6.4
keep in mind to edit the settings of this hack especially if you have not installes abe1s post_thanks hack you have to disable the "show on thanks" option.

[Shankoty]

oooooooooooooooohhhh

so difficult why u do not add icon to auto insert the BBCode for hide Hack

[itsid]

this way you can install the hack without having to upload anything via ftp.
You can add the button in acp "custom vB Codes" if you wish to have one (one is in post #74)
upload that one to your images/editor directory and set in in your codes options

so i will wait
but now how can i unstall

how to delete and Uninstall this XML file ??

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i import XML to Phrase-Manager from Download/Upload Language and now i want to uninstall this XML file and delete it
how can i do it ???

when i install Hide_hack .. the last step it was to import via acp Phrase-Manager but NOT as a new language!
english/hide_bbcode-images-english.xml

---------------- now i uninstall the hack but i do not know how to uninstall and remove the
english/hide_bbcode-images-english.xml
from Pharse Manager

[itsid]

Well,
just delete the plugin from the plugin-manager.
I'm not sure about the phrases.... but if they're left in your langfile:
all phrases start with sid_hide
so you can find them easily

i always see this screen
i don't see hide index

[itsid]

Go to Custom vB Codes section in your admin control panel
click choose the hide tag and click on edit.
no need to alter anything, just hit "save settings"

should do, I have no idea why this eror occures the one or other time.
but it's fixed fast
