Add-On Releases - vBulletin-Glossary

What is vBulletin-Glossary:

A professional glossary with features like :

• crosslinking
• attachments in entries
• edit-history
• synonyms
• optional entryfields
• vb-SEO compatible
• etc.

Installation:

- Upload all files in 'upload' to your server

- set 777-permission for the following directories:

• /vbglossar
• /vbglossar/backup
• /vbglossar/temp

- Import 'product-vbglossar.xml' in AdminCP as Add-On.

Right after the import of the productfile, go and set the usergroups. Afterwards edit the setting in AdminCP (Settings and Crosslinking). Now go to 'manage categories' and create the wanted cats.

Now the glossary should be configured and ready to use.

Update from version 1.0.0 to version 1.0.1/version 1.0.1 to version 1.1.x:

Follow the instruction of a new installation, also check the file permissions. After importing the product (overwrite: yes), check the grouprights and the settings of the glossary as there are some new features. In case the entries won't show up, please rebuild the datastore in the tools-section of the glossarin in admincp.

General:

This addon has been developed by the follwing people (a-z): Andreas, Captainslater, G?rome, Surviver and me. We spent every free minute for this project (coding, translation, tests, etc). Also MrD and Ragtek have tested during the time when this addon got developed.

In directory '/tools' you might find a usefull Script by G?rome. User of vBCMS will find a module for their portal in directory 'vbcms' which shows a random entry of the glossary.

History:

• 1.0.0 - First version
• 1.0.0 PL 1 - Fixed Version by G?rome, users can't write unwnated entries anymore.
• 1.0.1 - overwork of the code, now working with datastore and datamanager. Also we included some small new features into the addon (e. g. revert entries, inlinemod, etc).
• 1.0.2 - overwork of the code, bugs removed, a lot of new features
• 1.0.3 - fixed more small bugs and added new functions (create threads for discussions, more options for crosslinking, better options for mods/admins, etc).
• 1.0.4 - bugfix-release.
• 1.1.0 - added more main-features (synonyms can be used now, optional use of entryfields within categories, PDF-functions included, vB-SEO kompatible, TOC-list, etc)

Languages:

By default you will find the complete germany and english phrases in the product (look at ZIP-file), done by Captainslater. The turkish translation has been done by t?rkg?rc?.

More translations are welcome and it would be nice if those will be published here.

Maybe you need to copy the button into the images-directory of your style...

This comes very close to a wiki system. Are you planning to further develop this to a wiki? Many people are waiting for a wiki addon.

Hm, somehow. What we are planning to try is to include a function which gives restrictions to users or even usergroups for specific entries. That would mean, that either the complete community can work on one entry or only a few people who were 'selected' by the author of the entry (well, of coz the mods/admins can do this aswell).

Actually we work on the bug fixes and some special stuff like vbcms-modules for example. While bugfixing we try to includes the wishes we're getting for that addon.

I hate to be thick, but since the example is in German, I'm not sure if this is what I think it is.

Is this a mod to create a glossary of commonly used terms on the board? And is it self-maintained by the users of the board like a Wiki would be?

As an example. Someone would add "ROFL" and then explain what it meant?

Or am I missing this completely?

Thanks for sharing. I was going to use thegeeks product to do something very similiar to this, and I might just use yours now. thanks.
