Show Thread Enhancements - Postbit Collapser/Arranger

THIS ADD-ON IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE AND IS NOT SUPPORTED

This add-on makes the text portion of postbits collapsable and allows the selection and arranging of what profile fields will be displayed in postbits.


Features

• Select which profile fields to display in postbits.
• Select which standard vB fields to display in postbits.
• Set the order that the fields will be displayed in.
• Detects new profile fields and adds them to the postbit order display for selection.
• Detects deleted profile fields and removes them from the postbit order display.
• Does not add any database queries to the vB frontend.
• Adds Local Date and Local Time options to the available fields.
• Detects and adds Photopost Gallery option to the available fields.
• Does not affect mods that add to the proper postbit hooks, but those items can not have their order changed.
• Support for other mods to add their postbits to this add-on so the order they are displayed in can be changed.
• After editing a post or posting a quick reply, the entire postbit for that post is shown to the member that edited/posted the post.

NOTE: This add-on contains the Local Date/Time code by the late Rob Hindal (Boofo). If a large number of people think this should be removed from this mod I will remove it.

This add-on will not work with any mod that forces the use of the standard vB postbit_legacy template, or with any mod that requires manual editing of the postbit templates.

Known Mods that do this:

1. [DBTech] Advanced Post Thanks Like v3.0.3 [Lite] (Due to double Blog This Post link)
2. Info box on Postbit (may work with edits to that mod)
3. Country Flags - Postbit & Postbit_Legacy. vB 4.0.x (Inc GO : (Due to manual edits)

A live demo of this can be seen on my site: http://snogssite.com


* INSTALLATION *
-----------------------
1) Upload the contents of the 'upload' folder to your forum's root.
(If your forum's location is http://www.example.com/forums/, the root is /forums/)

2) Import the product XML file (product-pbcollapse.xml) into the Product Manager in AdminCP.

3) Go to ACP->Postbit Collapser->Postbit Display Order and set the fields you want displayed.

The Postbit Collapser will be in the Thread & Posts area of the ACP Menu
Be sure to save the options even if you don't make any changes.

4) Go to ACP->Postbit Collapser->Collapser Settings and turn the system on.

If you want to use a different graphic for the expand/collapse button in postbits change these buttons:

If they are displaying but in a different position, that can't be changed unless DBTech decides to add the code to allow postbit collapser to move it around as described in the Programmers_ReadMe.txt file.

Do you want me to pm you details?

OK, you're all set.

All templates are displaying properly now. And the double Blog This Post link is gone.

There is one mod that is causing this...


I can't fix that. It happens with or without my mod installed. You'll need to find what mod is inserting the blog entries and contact the author of that mod to correct it.

[boss22]

I do not know if is it some mod or vb blog some setting ...will check ...

Thanks for your help!

regards

[boss22]

i think that is this template bit from vb blog templates - blog_postbit_entries_link

[boss22]

Fixed - now is ok!

Thanks for help!

Hallo nhawk,

it works fine for me in the postbit_legacy, but in the postbit it didn't work? Is there a way to get it also in the postbit?

(sorry, my english is so bad) Thanks for help!

The only reason it wouldn't work in postbit is if something is forcing the use of the standard postbit template, or if something else is forcing the use of a different custom postbit template.

See this post for how it should look with postbit...

I would have to see what you're talking about. Can you send a link to your site?

I have a feeling it's another mod forcing the use of the standard templates.
