Hidden Posts

I have updated this hack. It now hides hidden posts during replying, when they are shown below the newreply screen for review.

See the upgrade instructions below.

-------------------------------

Just for the record this IS NOT Lockdown. This allows the user to select an option when posting/editing a post that will make his post display a message that it is hidden, and to view it, click here. It's great for spoilers, off-color language, or anything else that you would want the viewer to make a conscious decision to view it.

Idea by amykhar.

Screenshot is here.

For version: 2.0.3

Files needed: install_hiddenposts.php

Files to edit: newthread.php, newreply.php, editpost.php, showthread.php, admin/functions.php

Templates to edit/create: newthread, newreply, editpost, postbit_hidden

Instructions are in the zip in a file named INSTALL.

Upgrading Instructions: To upgrade from the previous version of this hack (which didn't hide posts when replying), do the following:
In newreply.php, find

PHP Code:

          if ($ignore[$post[userid]]) {
            $reviewmessage = $ignoreduser; 


Right below that, add

PHP Code:

          } elseif ($post[hidden]) {
            eval("\$hiddenpost = \"".gettemplate("threadreviewbit_hidden")."\";");
            $reviewmessage = $hiddenpost; 


Then find

PHP Code:

        post.pagetext,post.allowsmilie,post.userid FROM post 


and replace that with

PHP Code:

        post.pagetext,post.allowsmilie,post.userid,post.hidden FROM post 


And that's it.

Please DO NOT email, PM, IM, or otherwise contact me off this board about this hack. Post in this thread.

Feedback appreciated. Enjoy!

s'ok JJR

Squashed another bug folks. Involving editpost.php...

Find
$signature=iif($signature=="yes",1,0);
Add right below it
$hidden=iif($hidden=="yes",1,0);

Then find

PHP Code:

  $DB_site->query("UPDATE post SET title='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($title))."',pagetext='".addslashes($message)."',allowsmilie='$allowsmilie',showsignature='$signature',iconid='$iconid'$editedbysql$attachmentsql WHERE postid='$postid'"); 


and replace it with

PHP Code:

  $DB_site->query("UPDATE post SET title='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($title))."',pagetext='".addslashes($message)."',allowsmilie='$allowsmilie',showsignature='$signature',iconid='$iconid', hidden='$hidden'$editedbysql$attachmentsql WHERE postid='$postid'"); 


and reupload editpost.php. Should now work.

Works like a charm (at least for new posts, haven't fully tested edited posts and replies yet)

THANK YOU Kevin

Dang, I can't believe someone made this...I run a movie forum site, so a [spoiler] tag is becoming a must. I'll probably write my own version of it though, which can give users the option to automatically display spoilers anyway, have them show up in a JS alert, or have them show up in a popup window...or something.

[amykhar]

One of my users just noticed a slight hitch in the hack. When hit reply, all of the posts, hidden and not, are displayed down below.

I am going to poke around and see if I can fix it, but it might take a while.

[tubedogg]

I noticed that yesterday too. Shouldn't be too hard to fix...will work on it and release a new version probably by Tuesday.

[tubedogg]

OK all fixed up. See the first post.
