New Posting Features - Doublepost Prevention Plus

This branch is no longer supported. Please, use this product.

This is complete rework of Xenon mod, that's not supported for a long time.

Difference:

• No problems with quickpost & AJAX
• Attachments supported
• Easy groups ignore support
• Hooks for customisation

What this mod do:

If user creates 2 sequent posts in a short time, those are merged. That helps to keep your forum clear and prevent topicks bumping.

Setup:

Just import product and change necessary settings. No any edits required.

If you limit posts edit time, it's recommended to make merge time === edit time.

PS. Should work with 3.7.x too, but tested only with 3.7.4.

Anyway - as i remember - there was a permission from Xenon in his Thread long ago for everyone how want?s to use his Code to make further Updates.

And he tolds me the same nearly 1,5 Years ago via PM as i discussed with him if there will ever be an Update from him when he was still online here. But sorry, i didn?t have this PM still in my Account here in vb.org.

Xenon wasn?t online here at vb.org for Years/Month now. It is impossible to contact him again - IMHO.

Maybe it is possible for PaulM to give Vitaly a Way to contact Xenon (because PaulM wrotes he has become a personal Permission) so Vitaly can ask Xenon again?

Anyway again - like i know Xenon i can?t believe he has any Problem with Vitalys Rebuild/Distribution of this new Mod:

* No problems with quickpost & AJAX
* Attachments supported
* Easy groups ignore support
* Hooks for customisation

I guess this Differences are a small bit more creative and copyright worthily then the other Functions of Xenons first Try to make a Doublepostprevention Mod.

Sorry, but how to use other Words for simple Things like this Mod does? How can Words that explain some Functions copyrighted? :erm:

Suggestion:
Could you pls include an option to disable this mod for specific forums? Sometime it is useful not to merge every new posting.

That would be very nice. In anyway again - thanks for you great Job to include all old Features from Xenon.

I mark installed for the time being. Thanks!
However I'm interested in what's the difference in functions/options between your hack and the one PaulM released. That way I can make a better choice.

PaulM does not implement the old ACP-Features of Xenon.

And this one will merge Attachments.

I don't like to make public competiton and features comparison. It's not polite, because everybody release it's work fo free. All my mods are based on my personal needs, and sometime more general options added, when that doesn't take a lot of time.

Just read description, look screenshots, test on you site and make your choice.
