You'll need to fiddle with it, because like I said, I don't use vBadvanced.

No problem. I'll find a way, then i'll post it here.

Thanx

Can't stop coming and looking at my forums after that hack was installed, magnus.
Never had any problems with it, works smoothly.

I thought of a suggestion just now. My forum's quote database is basically an archive of irc quotes, and the only two features now I really need are: the ability to search, and the numbering of quotes. It's kind of hard to describe, but if you go to bash.org, you'll se what i mean. Every quote has it's own number, and it would come very usefull in this hack. For example, when refering to some particular quote, you could make it look like that: http://www.forumaddress.com/quotes.php?14 where 14 is the number of the quote. If you follow that link, you'd see the requested quote there. Also, you could add the number display right beside the quote, like bash.org has.

wooh, regards

John, I'm glad you like it. Hell, your request is the reason I even made this, lol.

Just so you know, quotes are numbered, have you upgraded to at least v1.1? They can be accessed via http://www.forumaddress.com/quotes.p...view&quoteid=1

As for the search, that's been added to v2.0 as well as sorting. Look for it soon.

[djohn]

The feature of viewing quotes seperately is news to me, but concerning the numbering, i meant the possibility of showing the quote number next to the quote on forumhome.

Format suggestion:
#1 +(63)- [E|X] magnus
Where #1 is the quote number, +(63)- is the rating, + and - are the buttons to rate the quote up or down, ideally it would be that registed users can rate only once, and the information on whether the user has rated or not would be stored in the database, guest rating could be turned on\off, the limitation would be applied to the ip. [X|E] are the quick edit (E) and delete (X) buttons. magnus is the username of the one, who submitted the quote.

djohn, all if this is already possible (in v1.1 or v1.2). Since it's all template driven, you just simply need to design the template how you see fit. For instance, see the attached screenshot:

I dunno what it is...I can not see the Moderate quotes in my admin panel...nor can I see the options to add or delete quotes on the forumhome

Any suggestions?

Great hack!

[Giveit2u43]

Goto Phrases, and just click edit on any phrases and then click save.. you don`t need to actually edit anything but you need to do that to update the phrases cache...

That's not very helpful. There's no reason for it not to work, as it doesn't rely on anything other than a SQL DB and the quotes.php file.

So, would you care to elaborate on what specifically isn't working?

[Giveit2u43]

Working fine for me on Gold.. Make sure you've edited, saved and uploaded the changes..
