Pre-Defined Message · **Released**: 06-29-2008

What does this do?

This allows you to pre-define a message in the Admin CP that is linked to a button shown on showthread.php (depending on what forums you allow to use this button). When you click this button, it will automatically reply to that post with your pre-defined message.

This saves you repeating yourself when welcoming new members or if you have to keep telling people the rules for your site. Just one click

What can I do?

Well this is totally customisable. You can limit what forums have this, what usergroups can press the button, Whether the users signature is shown and whether it closes the thread after posting.

How easy is this to install?

Very easy. Just upload the xml file to product manager.

What tests have been done?

This has been made CSRF protected so you will not get the annoying "security key missing or mismatched" message.

What Next?

Please leave any suggestions / feedback. I am always looking to upgrade this and would be more than happy to try and implement some of your ideas.

Miscellaneous

Please mark as installed if you use this.

Donations always welcome

I'll install this once it has these features:

1. PM ability
2. More then 1 defined message ability
3. user defined messages, eg. my smods may like to type up their own messages that they use. and for myself I would like to have my own messages.

Other then that, good work, thanks for sharing, and look forward to seeing this develop some more

If all of these suggestions were implemented this would be a very, very helpful modification.

Are you still planning further enhancements? This is one of my most wanted features, but the current implementation is a bit lacking (although very promising).

Hex_legend · #25 07-22-2008, 12:46 AM

Yes I am planning extra features, but at the moment all my concentration is going on vB Member Area

djr · #26 07-22-2008, 03:58 PM

Willing to shift your focus for some $$$?

Alfa1 · #27 07-22-2008, 08:15 PM

I'll pitch in some $$ as well.

Hex_legend · #28 07-23-2008, 03:45 PM

Hehe well vB Members Area gets released tomorrow, so then I will be focusing all my concentration on Pre-Defined message

Andyrew · #29 07-23-2008, 07:32 PM

Woo hoo

I requested this last year and have been waiting ever since.
My wait is nearly over, or it will be when you can define multiple messages.

:up:

Be assured I'm dead serious about the $$$. I have no problem donating/paying good money (and I ain't talking $10) for a plugin which does what I need. I know this is probably not in line with forum policy, but please see this as a formal paid modification which may be released for free for all of vb.org after it's done. PM me if you're ready to code and talk.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
