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

Great Hack! Thanks!
But i wanted to ask you just one thing: I want to make hidden posts that were posted a month ago will not be hidden. I know how to write the code itself, but what i don't know is where i should put it? what plugin should i change? Thanks!

[itsid]

starting from the end...

Fatal Breeze,
you have to edit the fetch_hide_tag plugin you'll recognize the rules that kick the hide-tag from certain forums (or globally) put it right after those.
Oh and the printthread plugin too.
(keep in mind that hacks are NOT opensource in the "i do what i want with it"- sense of term)
So at least I want to see what you've done

Ufgy,
you have to install the images and the image-xml file properly.
follow the instructions you'll find in post #432 (page 29)

kauka,
I think so, I didn't tested, but I've heard it does.

maxicep,
No, due to bad experiences I will not share any psd anymore.
see post #421 for a small how-to hide attachments (page 29)

lolo?,
I don't use vbadvanced, so I don't know what you want me to do.
