Thread Category / Prefix Hack
Version: 1.3.7 vBulletin Version: 3.0.7 Developer: Mystics (www.vbulletin-germany.com) Hack-Language: English & German & French (thanks to ReadWrite) Install-difficulty: Medium File-edits: 19 Template-edits: 16 Brief Description of the Hack With this hack it is possible to assign a category/prefix to a thread. To do this you are able to select an appropriate category from a list beside the title while posting a new thread - for example 'Help', 'Problem', 'Search' etc. The categories displayed in this list may be defined by a moderator for each of his moderated forums (Forum Tools -> Manage Categories); of course an administrator is allowed to do this for every forum.

Upload the new threadcategory.php as soon as possible!1.2.1 (02-14-2004 - 02:15 pm)
Tested for version: 3.0.0 RC 3 (and above). Note: If you have already used the vBulletin 2 version of this hack (only available in german) and the categories are still stored in the vB3 database, you may convert them for the vB3 version. You will see a note to that in step 2 of the hack installation. Update hack

I already have extensive modifications to some of the templates and files altered by this hack. Will it install properly in conjunction with these existing mods?

I've never used the automated hack installer. So my question is really centered around how that application works. Does it make a backup of all files & templates (thus allowing you to cleanly back-out of an install), or do I need to take a tarball first?
Thanks! |

Mystics ..
I'm in the process of lowering the number of forums I have and would like to move all the threads from about 8 forums into the one forum with them all having categories instead. Before I do this I'd like to give all of those threads a category. Is there a way I can force all threads in one forum a single category which would then show once I move them? I've tried creating a single category and then using the update all threads option .. but this seems to only work if they have a category attached to the thread already. Any ideas? |

UPDATE thread SET category = 'category1' WHERE forumid = X; UPDATE thread SET category = 'category2' WHERE forumid = Y; etc. X, Y = forumids of the old forums. |

Man I'm having a heck of a time figuring out the conditional to only make this display for admins or co admins if it's a certain forum..
Any ideas? |

In editor_clientscript we are told to add something below:
"must_enter_subject" : "$vbphrase[must_enter_subject]", But I can not find that line in there. |

I must say, this had to have taken a long time to put together. The installation instructions and their delivery method is top notch. I thank you for what you have come up with as it has gone in smoothly on my site. I thank you!

I installed this yesterday. Works perfectly. However, in my vB3.0.3, I had to dig around for new code placement in the FORUMHOME and SEARCH_RESULTS templates, as there are differences in 3.0.7. All-in-all, a great hack, and it installed in about 3 hours.

When I SEARCH on more than ONE KEYWORD, the search function ONLY searches threads that have a category. The old threads (which do NOT have a category) are ignored. However, if you search fo a single keyword, ALL threads containing that keyword are found, whether categorized or not.
Could somone perhaps tell me what needs to be done? vB3.0.3 Thanks! EDIT: Additional information - To test, I added a category to a few threads whos contents would be used in a search. When I searched using multiple keywords, only a SINGLE thread came up in results. This was a thread that had been created AFTER categories were put in place. The missing threads had the category added via a thread edit (thread tools / edit thread). However, when I used -' "keyword1" and "keyword2" '- , I got all three threads. Still NONE of the uncategorized ones however. |
