New Posting Features - [hide] hack incl post thank you "addon"

UPDATE
sid's [hide] hack 0.3.5

Hi again,

I've tried my best to build a [hide] hack that will fit to to
the wonderful POST THANK YOU HACK

but for sure you can use it without, then it'll work if user replies to a post with hidden content

You can coose in acp to show hidden content to admins mods or users of a certain usergroup (if you have useradmins or something) too.

It will show up some hint that will let your users know what to do (thank, answer, or even nothing)
by now with some small text, soon with a set of images

BUT

• my english is way off what I want it to be, so please go ahead and edit the language file to your needs

NOW UPDATED

Thanks to Andreas of vbhacks-germany

• no hidden content visible in archive
• no php edits necessary no more
• kicked out bitfield-code
  
  and further
• no hidden content visible in printthread.php if not in showthread.php
• now with a set of small images showing up as hint
• and least updateurl in acp

have fun

cheers

ps Sorry for updating that fast

UPDATE 0.3.0
uninstall previous version before installing the update!
So, here's what you've all been waiting for *grin*
Tha ajaxified version of my hide hack.

BUT, this is rather bruteforcing ajax, so be warned
First: you could fully disable ajax for this script in ACP!
Now how it goes, it checks the length of pagecontent every three seconds (usersides, no worries about serverload here), and if it finds some new "content" like a filled thanks-box or a new post it calls all the posts that have hidden content (of this page only of course) and tries to refill the postbits,
this causes some sql-queries, almost as much as to totally reload the page itself.
AS soon as I find a more elegant method I will update again.
Nothing else was changed though since 2.6, only modified in handling the ajax-request.
If you encounter any problems with the ajax of this script, just deactivate,
no javascript at all then will be loaded from this script, and you'll have a "normal" version in hands.
(size is due to an pic-install-help-image )

UPDATE 0.3.5
reduced querys,
smarter installations code.

that's all

cheers

PS If you encounter any problems not seeing thanked posts hidden content after reload,
try this codechange

PPS Sorry, Support only for those who clicked "install"

rjmjr69,
as described in the picture, the images have to uploaded to your images-folder,
check if you can call them by yoururl.com/images/en_hide_pot.gif or if your forum is in a subdirectory yoururl.com/formorwhatever/images/en_hide_pot.gif
If you see the images there check if you uploaded the xml corectly

the xml has to be installed for every language that the pictures should appear in.
go to acp-> phrasemanagement -> upload phrases -> import xml langfile -> choose "hide_bbcode-images-english.xml" from your local harddrive -> choose overwrite existing language "english" or what ever language you want to add the pictures to -> check ignore version -> click import
that's it
repeat for other languages if necessary.

Check your hacksettings again, delete all entries that disable the hack in certain forums, disable view in all cases and disable view for all usergroups.
Now, noone should be able to see what's hidden not even the admin.
If that's working, make your appropriate settings and save.

secta,
thanks for that information

?? Hi sweetguy,
I just told beduino on May 10th.. I thought you know now.
include the attachments to your post using the paperclip-symbol in your editor, then hide them away as you hide ordinary text.
