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"

Hi sid,i have a problem.So member quote my post and they can see hidden content without thank.So can you fix this?

[itsid]

???
hidden content cannot be quoted by default!

If you see a quote with hidden content, then it has to be C&P.

How many queries does this add? And does it only add it on pages with [hide] on it?

Also i assume its compatible with 3.6.7 pl1 ?

Thanks i am very interested in installing this but dont want to lose speed or cause problems.

If there is no hidden content in any post of a specific page it won't add any query.
If there is hidden content that is thanked for before it wont need any additional query either to show it up (it uses a variable provided by the post_thank_you_hack)
Only if that fails (see first post, flw) it needs to be changed to make an own query for those cases.
There is one query to check if viewer has answered already (if that option is enabled) that is called if hidden content is still invisible (not thanked p.e.)
So best case : No hidden content or all hidden content is thanked for (original plugin) = NO additional query
Worst case : Hidden content, not thanked (changed plugin for errorcorrection), both options activated, [not] answered = Two Querys per post (only those that contain the hide-tag)
Normal behaviour = One query per post (containing hidden content only ama)

Yes, I was told it works smoothly with 367, not tested myself

You shouldn't encounter any speed-problems not even with ajax-ability enabled,
If you do, you can try to disable ajax-ability first.
Uninstalling the hack won't leave a trace, because it's fully pluginbased (images excluded)

Awesome thanks for your detailed reply, it was very helpful.

I will be installing this mod this week for sure and will let you know how smoothly it works with 3.6.7 and on a large board scale (over 5.8 mil posts and 80,000 members).

Thanks again.
