Or, how do you get around people who might type some horrendously long entry?

*edit* Ahh, I see a post on this page... any reason why that is not in the vbulletin options for the hack?

I believe that the limit for the status is about 200 characters, and the limit for the message is about 250 (in the database, this is hot much can be stored).

Not at the moment, as it would need to be added to the query, which would require another plugin or perhaps code modification.


Also, don't forget to click install!

It would be cool if their status showed up on the "who's online" page.

Try editing online.php and changing:

$allusers = $db->query_read("
	SELECT user.username, session.useragent, session.location, session.lastactivity, user.userid, user.options, session.host, session.badlocation, session.incalendar, user.aim, user.icq, user.msn, user.yahoo, user.skype,

To this:

$allusers = $db->query_read("
	SELECT user.username, session.useragent, session.location, session.lastactivity, user.userid, user.options, session.host, session.badlocation, session.incalendar, user.aim, user.icq, user.msn, user.yahoo, user.skype, user.sr_away_status, user.sr_away_message,

Then chang the whosonlinebit template

Add:

	<if condition="$vboptions[sr_away_onoff]">
		<div>
			$vbphrase[sr_away_status]: <a href="#" title="$userinfo[sr_away_message]">$userinfo[sr_away_status]</a>
		</div>
	</if>

After:

$userinfo[musername]

As for the vbadvanced, like i said, it will be looked into. However, it's hard to make something hoping that it will be compatible with all hacks on your site till you figure out why it won't be compatible with the hack in the first place. Global.php is called in all files and that's where the plugin is. Therefore, i do not see why this problem occurs. However, it will be looked into.

If you are having a problem searching for $vbphrase[posts]: $post[posts] <br> then just search for $vbphrase[posts]: $post[posts] and place it after the next <br> or </div>

If your users are getting logged off after filling this out, it may be a problem with your misc.php or cookie settings.

OKI, When you know like fixing the problem. please reporte me.

Sorry by my english

I'll ask this again:

if a user selected a status then the admin decided to change the name of the status, it still shows the old name. How can one update this?
