View Post Edits v0.01 BETA · **Released**: 02-14-2005

The final release will be posted after a few weeks of discussion here and any tweaks need to be made.

Screenshots are attached.

Overview:
---------

Quote:

This modification will allow viewing of all post edits. It does this
by taking the posts that are edited and appending the original to the
end of the post. This original post is enclosed in new BBCode [EDIT]
and [/EDIT] tags. When this tag is found, the contents are displayed
as a previous edit and is marked as such. This is controlled by user
group. If you would like certain members or groups to have access to
view these edits, simply add this user permission. If a user enters
the new BBCode in any message, the brackets are converted to their
numerical code value thus preventing them from interfering with the
modification.

// ************************************************** ********************
// ************************************************** ********************

Notes:
------

Quote:

- Previous edits are stamped with the time and date as well as who
made the post edit.
- When no reason is given for a post edit, it is automatically set
to "No reason given."
- Usergroup based permissions.
- One added query each time a post edit is submitted or previewed.
- Includes instructions for vBAdvanced CPMS news, however if other
modules/portals/hacks are used to read post data, they will need
to be modified to prevent the displaying of post edits.
- Collapsable tables conserve screen real-estate so only the post
edits you wish to see can be displayed. Scrolling is implemented
to conserve even more space.
- Uses phrases for easy language conversion.
- Uses templates for easy customization.
- Images included in the previous edits will not count toward the
total image count for the post. This should be remembered for
those with users that like to post a lot of images and they edit
those messages with any kind of frequency.

-=Sniper=- · #12 02-15-2005, 02:05 PM

excellent hack dude! I think maybe a forum based options is needed?

you'd want to keep a track of all edits in the buy/sell/trade forums? and not test forums etc

also maybe the option to delete entries from the postbit?

rjordan · #13 02-15-2005, 02:23 PM

Hmm... forum based options... that is not a bad idea. I will have to look at that after this goes through some more trials.

Freeze, check your PM.

Freezerator · #14 02-16-2005, 09:02 AM

I don't think my error lies in editpost.php but in the parsing of bbcode?

rjordan · #15 02-16-2005, 09:30 AM

Still looking into it. Check your e-mail again. The issue seems to lie where in editpost.php calls the view_edits_bit template. When it calls the template, it is adding the HTML comment to the text field. For those who have already installed this, have you seen this issue?

Freezerator · #16 02-16-2005, 12:52 PM

Well, i have turned HTML Comments off and now there gone. It seems to work just like it should now. Thanks for the support!

rjordan · #17 02-16-2005, 03:39 PM

Now I question why I do not see that when I turn my Add Template Name in HTML Comments on, though.

Freezerator · #18 02-16-2005, 04:20 PM

Do you use the WYSIWYG editor?

rjordan · #19 02-16-2005, 09:08 PM

I tested it all ways I could find with all interfaces. That is why I am (no offense) hoping it is just you.

Freezerator · #20 02-17-2005, 05:58 AM

Well, lets hope it's just me then. I will install this maybe this week on my other board.
So far it's is doing what it should do, and this is a very handy hack.

Freezerator · #21 02-17-2005, 08:06 AM

For your information, i am running 3.0.6
My other admins are really happy with this hack.

Also when you like to implement forum based options i will be the first to test it

Maybe a suggestion for the Show/Hide posts edits, this can be also done in the postbit template? I was wondering if it could be done so i can customise it into my different styles

Keep up the great work!
