Compatible with 4.x.x
vBStatus allows your users to update their status to tell other members what they are doing/thinking at any given time. A user's status is displayed under their names in their postbit, in their User Profile, and anywhere else you choose!

User's can edit their status quickly and easily via AJAX.

Features and Configuration options include:
  • Admin Option: Turn modification on/off
  • Admin Option: Ban usergroups from updating their status.
  • Admin Option: Set a max character count for status messages.
  • Admin Option: Set the number of characters of a status message displayed per line. (Word wrapping will occur for status messages longer than this defined value.)
  • Admin Option: Define a standard status prefix to be appended to the start of all status messages after the username. (i.e. Attilitus is doing something.)
  • Admin Option: Define a default status for users with a blank status.
  • Admin Option: Define the character set used for encoding status messages. (The default value of this option should work for most character sets.)
  • Feature: Status messages may be updated in-line.
  • Feature: All languages and character sets are supported. (Most, if not all, should work with the default encoding option. Others may require some configuration in the admin options.)
  • Feature: Users may press the Enter key to confirm their status update.
  • Temporarily Deactivated in v5: Admin Option: Allow defined usergroups to modify other user's status updates. (For moderation purposes)
There are 4 template edits for this hack. The installation readme file will guide you through the entire process.

Version 5.1
  • Support for non-english characters has been added.
  • A small modification was made to the installation script to make it more robust.
Upgrade Instructions: Reupload all files (allow overwrite), and reimport the product (allow overwrite). No additional template edits are required to for the upgrade.


Version 5.2
  • Users may press the Enter key to submit their status.
Upgrade Instructions: Reupload all files (allow overwrite). No additional template edits are required for this upgrade. You may reimport the included product, if you desire, to update the version number to 5.2

Version 5.2.1
  • Extra white space will no longer appear in the status update input field.


Version 5.3
  • Important security update to fix a cross site scripting exploit.
Upgrade Instructions: Reupload all files in the upload folder to your forum root, and allow overwrite. It is not necessary to re-import the product xml file.


Note: The files available in this thread will always be for the most recent version of the modification.

If you previously used vBStatus in vB 3.x your member's old status messages will be preserved.

Indeed, v4 used ajax_wrapper.js having 2 KB only. This should be incorporated in vbstatus_javascript.js and mootools.js dependency completely removed.

I second the removal of mootools, and a sidebar block that show the x most recently updated statuses would make this mod a killer!

I really like this. Is there a way to add even more functionality? I would be neat if users could respond to the status update somehow (like facebook) with the status posting in the user's visitor message center and any responses posting there too.

I'm trying to add a little more FB style functionality to the forums that extends beyond the regular posting capabilities.

A great mod, is is possible to have 3 or 4 random default msg instead of just one?

Right now everyone all has the "has no status." message which looks funny,

"loves to eat."
"needs to study."
"is on facebook"
etc, etc, etc
