[PORT] Who quoted me Plugin

This Plugin is a Port of Gamingforces vB 3.0 Mod
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...8&page=3&pp=15

[ Feature Description ]
This is a very popular feature on my community since it allows people to easily track who's been quoting them. This is very useful because it allows you to easily check up on who's been replying to you!

How does it work?

1. John quotes Paris in a reply and also quotes Nicole.
2. The hack recognizes that John's quoting Paris and Nicole and adds 2 entries to the quotedata table.
3. Paris and Nicole can see in their "Who Quoted Me?" page that John has quoted their post.
4. Paris wants to see the post with her quoted on and she clicks the link. She is brought to the post!
5. Everyone is happy and John enjoys a Chalupa from Taco Bell.*

For such a useful feature, it's incredibly easy to install!

You can easily modify the number of results to display for the user! Just change the $zig in the whoquotedme.php file!

Or how about putting a message like this on the forums...

When you post your code, it becomes public, open-source material, and others are free to modify/re-release the code as they see fit.

Make them agree to it before the post will appear on the website.

Anyone got a screenshot of this. I think it's what I'm looking for but I'm not installing until I'm sure.

If someone is re-releasing freely-distributed material FREELY, then there's no problem. If they were making a profit off it, that's another issue.

Everything released has a personal copyright due to it being their illectual property, something we cannot waive legally...

As Chris already said, most things released are automatically placed under copyright.

Followed attachment instructions to the letter under 3.5.2 and when I go to whoquotedme.php from user cp, although the table seems OK, I don't see any quotes listed.

and the system is not working on all situations... if you edit a post and add a new quote, the quote is not parsed inside the system, it is just when you post a new reply...

I hate to take the thread off topic but with a million different liscencing schemes such as the GNU, etc, can't we have our own vb.org liscence where hacks released here can be updated and ported to new versions so long as its not redistributed on other sites, etc etc etc. Yes the author has to choose to use it but its one step closer to making vb.org a better place.
