Moderators Functions - Inline Usernote Adder

Inline Usernote
Version 1.0

What does it do?
This little mod allows you to add Usernotes directly from the postbit when browsing a thread. It uses Ajax to post the usernote, so your page isn't refreshed at all.

You can post the note then carry on reading the thread without being disturbed.

Great! How do I install?
To install, follow these steps:

Step 1) Upload the contents of the upload folder to your forum (2 files)
Step 2) Import the Product XML as normal
Step 3) Edit the postbit template as follows:

Find

</table>
</div> 
<!-- / post $post[postid] popup menu -->

(hint, it's a few lines up from the very bottom)

ABOVE the </table>, add the following:

<if condition="in_array($bbuserinfo[usergroupid], array(5,6,7))">
<td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="#" onClick="post_note($post[userid]); return false;">$vbphrase[inline_usernote_add_usernote]</a>
</if>

Now save the template.

Step 4) All done!

All done! How do I use it?

When you view a thread, click on the users name to being up the dropdown menu. You should now see a "Add Usernote" option there. Clicking this will bring up a prompt allowing you to enter the note you wish to add. Click OK on this, and it will confirm that the usernote was entered (or give you an error).

That's it!

Important: Unfortunately, my leased vBulletin licence has now expired, and I won't be renewing it until September which means I will be unable to reply to this thread, or update this mod until then. I'm hopeful that the great vBulletin.org community will step in to answer any questions in my absence though See you all in early September!

So this doesn't use the editor for the note, right? Interesting idea.

Yes, very interesting idea. How do you come up with this stuff?

I'm very astute (and it's killing me!) :cross-eyed:
