Add-On Releases - vBulletin-Glossary

What is vBulletin-Glossary:

A professional glossary with features like :

• crosslinking
• attachments in entries using vBullstin attachment system
• searchable by using the vBulletin standard search
• edit-history just like in wikipedia
• synonyms to combine crosslinkings to other words
• optional entryfields for more details of entry
• vb-SEO compatible
• etc.

Installation:

- Upload all files in 'upload' to your server

- set 777-permission for the following directories:

• /vbglossar
• /vbglossar/backup
• /vbglossar/temp

- Import 'product-vbglossar.xml' in AdminCP as Add-On.

Right after the import of the productfile, go and set the usergroups. Afterwards edit the setting in AdminCP (Settings and Crosslinking). Now go to 'manage categories' and create the wanted cats.

Now the glossary should be configured and ready to use.

Updates from previous versions:

Follow the instruction of a new installation, also check the file permissions. After importing the product (overwrite: yes), check the grouprights and the settings of the glossary as there are some new features. In case the entries won't show up, please rebuild the datastore in the tools-section of the glossarin in admincp.

Template Modification:

Edit template 'search.css' and check for the following text

/* as post */

Please include the following code above this:

.threadinfo.glossaryentry a.threadstatus
{
background-image:url({vb:stylevar imgdir_searchresults}/search_results_glossaryentry.png);
background-position: 11px 6px;
}

General:

This addon has been developed by the follwing people (a-z): Andreas, Captainslater, G?rome, Surviver and me. We spent every free minute for this project (coding, translation, tests, etc). Also MrD and Ragtek have tested during the time when this addon got developed.

In directory '/tools' you might find a usefull Script by G?rome. User of vBCMS will find a module for their portal in directory 'vbcms' which shows a random entry of the glossary.

History:

• 1.0.0 - First version
• 1.0.0 PL 1 - Fixed Version by G?rome, users can't write unwnated entries anymore.
• 1.0.1 - overwork of the code, now working with datastore and datamanager. Also we included some small new features into the addon (e. g. revert entries, inlinemod, etc).
• 1.0.2 - overwork of the code, bugs removed, a lot of new features
• 1.0.3 - fixed more small bugs and added new functions (create threads for discussions, more options for crosslinking, better options for mods/admins, etc).
• 1.0.4 - bugfix-release.
• 1.1.0 - added more main-features (synonyms can be used now, optional use of entryfields within categories, PDF-functions included, vB-SEO kompatible, TOC-list, etc)

Fatal error: Call to undefined function fetch_table_dump_sql() in /home/___/public_html/vb/admincp/admin_vbglossar.php on line 769

[dadoc]

I will see if I can replicate the same error khalled

[Seductor]

Hi there, I bring a modification of this add-on. I needed to show all my entries in a single page, so I did as follows.

In the template vbglossar_home, find:

	<div id="above_threadlist_controls" class="above_threadlist_controls toolsmenu">
		<div>

It is in the line 21-22.

After that, add:

              				<ul>
					       <li><a href="gloslist.php">{vb:rawphrase vbglossar_showlist}</a></li>
				        </ul><br/>

Add a new phrase in through your AdminCP (Add New Phrase):
Product: vBulletin - Glossary.
Name: vbglossar_showlist
Text: Show all the entries in a sigle page.
Same in the English box.

After doing that, add a new template named "GLOSLIST" (case sensitive) through your AdminCP with this content:

PHP Code:

{vb:stylevar htmldoctype}
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" dir="{vb:stylevar textdirection}" lang="{vb:stylevar languagecode}" id="vbulletin_html">
  <head>
    <title>{vb:raw vboptions.bbtitle} - {vb:raw pagetitle}</title>
    {vb:raw headinclude}
    {vb:raw headinclude_bottom}
  </head>
  <body>
    
    {vb:raw header}
    
    {vb:raw navbar}
    
    <div id="pagetitle">
      <h1>{vb:raw pagetitle}</h1>
    </div>
    
    <h2 class="blockhead">Title</h2>
      <div class="blockrow">
<vb:each from="entries" value="entry">
    <b>{vb:raw entry.0}</b><br/>
    {vb:raw entry.1}<br/>
    <i>Tags: {vb:raw entry.2}</i><br/><br/>
</vb:each>
      </div>
    </div>
    
    {vb:raw footer}
  </body>
</html> 


Finally, upload gloslist.php (attached to this message) to your main vBulletin folder.

You will have all your entries in one large list.

Do you plan to update this to 4.2.0?

Thanks

[Chadi]

Anyone got this working on 4.2.0?

I get this error when importing xml

Erstelle Tabelle/create table vbglossar_category ...
Warning: file_get_contents([path]/includes/database_error_message.html) [function.file-get-contents]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in [path]/includes/class_core.php on line 1149

I can't remember if that was the error I got when I first tried to install it but, try changing "TYPE=MyISAM" to "ENGINE=MyISAM". After doing that both this and Link Directory works for me.

[Chadi]

Thanks, but where do I change that?

edit: nevermind, xml file

Works! Thanks so much.
