Personal Favorites

this is my fist hack
I cant find it anywhere,so I made it
I read some good post but next time I visit the forum ,I cant find it ,only i can do is seach ,it is terrible.
Use this hack ,users in your forum can add threads into their own Favorite folder ,they aslo can creat folders,move the threads from each other.
I enjoy you like it,install it is very simple ,i write a script ,the only thing is running it,then add 2 links in your template.it works great
on vb 22X.if you use vb 201 ,tell me ,I will write for you.version update to 2.5
all bug fixed ,add a new option:users can share their .
users can select if they share their Favoritein usercp
if they select yes ,other users can view their Favorite.
so good article can be gathered and shared. enjoy it

hm....maybe its jsut the script....cause i unistall it then install it again and it goes threw.... Table success....Templates Success all of them are success then after the templates it just goes to a blank screen. This is on a vb2.2.5 board also

Is this kinda like the "Install" feature used here? But only for threads?

I like this, but isn't it just like subscribing to a thread? I mean whats the difference? I'm not trying to be a [better wash my mouth][better wash my mouth][better wash my mouth][better wash my mouth]. I mean it, what is the difference? when you subscribe to a thread, aren't your subscribed threads listed in the usercp?

This is excellent!! How strange - was walking to work this morning and thinking how useful it would be to be able to "bookmark" favourite threads.

In ways it's like subscribing, but without the email notification. It's also more intuitive for users who are used to the semantics of "bookmarking".

Brilliant.

I changed EVERY subscribe word to favorite on my forums, cuz nobody knows wants to "subscrible" to a thread! hahaha, but my users love adding threads to their favorites. I will HAVE to try this hack out a little later on today. Its 8:20am, SUCH a nice day, nobody home... time to skipp skool ;D

There is already a hack like this, i thought by freddie. Neo, remember that thread where you asked me for that converted version? I lost the thread, but it's somewhere.

Anyway, great hack. Well done.

I wrote a favorites hack for vB v1.1.x but it never was updated for v2.x

v3.0 already has favorites in place. Favorites can be placed in folders and don't generate emails when new replies are made.

[snyx]

that is... when v3.0 is released.
untill then, lets not dangle the cheese infront of the mouse, eh?

Not working for me...no matter what thread I add to favorites, It shows me ALWAYS the same thread... I added to favorites 5 diffrent threads and shows me 5 times a thread that I did not added...so strange...

well done, i've installed at http://www.ezyinvest.com

bug found: favourites.php does not checked if user is logged in i.e. even guests can add to favourites, here's a quick fix:


In favourites.php, find the line at the top:

require("global.php");

and add after the line:


if (!$bbuserinfo[userid] or $bbuserinfo[userid] < 1 or $bbuserinfo[userid] =="") {
show_nopermission();
}
