This modification thread will not be upgraded, since it is possible that some users may prefer v4.

Compatible with 3.6.x and 3.5.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.

Administrative options include:
  • Banning a list of usergroups from using the hack.
  • Allowing a list of usergroups to change other users' status.
  • Limit the # of characters used in Status Messages
  • Word wrap status messages to prevent broken templates.
  • Turning the hack on/off.
  • Option of In-Line editting or a popup. (Defined in the admincp)
  • Default status for users with a blank status. (Defined in the admincp)
  • Status prefix to append an admin-customizable forum standard. (Attilitus is doing something)
There are 3 template edits for this hack. The installation readme file will guide you through the entire process.
Update 2.0:
Please reinstall the product xml file, and re-edit your templates following the new instructions in the readme file. This is to correct a small cosmetic bug that displays non-functional links to guests and non-admins.

Update 3.0:
A number of bugs were fixed, and a few new admin options were added. Please uninstall the previous product and reinstall this one. Please re-edit your templates and reupload all files. Sorry for the inconvenience (but at least we are getting this handled in the first 12 hours of release.)

Update 4.0:
This is a fairly comprehensive update. You must remove all previous template edits and add the new template code. You must also "Allow Overwrite" when importing the new product. The DB structure hasn't changed.

New features include:
  • In-Line Editting (This is on by default, but you can return to the previous popup style by changing an option in the admincp)
  • Default Status: If a user doesn't have any status message it will be set to a default status which you can define in the admincp
  • Visual improvements: Various small visual improvements were made, including a change in the location of the small "edit" link.
Update 4.01
I added status prefixes. If your updating from version 4 just reimport the product (with overwrite set to yes), and reupload all the files. No template edits necessary when upgrading from v4 to v4.01. (And I'm not going to change the file version because this update came so quickly on the heals of v4.)


Please do not forget to click INSTALL

Upload all files in the upload folder (overwrite any existing files)
Reimport the product with the overwrite option checked.
No template edits necessary.

Cheers Attilus, terrific service !

I love this hack and would really like to install it on my forum... I uploaded everything and did the template edits.. I checked and double checked... everything seems fine. It shows the status underneath the person's username, however when you click to edit the status, nothing happens (when you use inline editing or the pop-up). I have installed & re-installed this about 3 times trying to look for errors, but I have no idea what's going on!
When I troubleshoot the page to look for Javascript errors, I do get one error:

"Error: Att_AjaxDi is not defined." Source File: javascript:Att_AjaxDiv('inline=1&userid=1&postid=1','vbstatu s/vbstatus_ajax.php','vbstatus_1')
Line: 1

I tried this in both Safari and Firefox, and I'm coming up with the same problems.
Thanks!

Thanks so much for your quick help, Attilitus!

For anyone who might be having the same issue, for some reason my vbstatus folder was not allowing anyone to read or write it. I just changed the permissions and everything started working.

Great mod!!! Thanks again!

Rather than show the word 'edit' under every name, why not make it so the status shows and we just click on the status to change it as admins. I have it set so admins can't edit other user statuses and still see that word. Its annoying seeing it under every name WITH the status.

Hm. I think that you must be using an older version of the templates, for two reasons. First, the edit link should not appear under the name anymore, it ought to appear to the right of the status in small print. Second, the bug your reporting (links appearing when admins don't have permission to edit user's status) was fixed in a previous version.

I suggest that you reinstall version 4.01 and follow the upgrade/installation instructions to the letter. (ie. Reupload all files, reimport the product with Allow Overwrite set to Yes, and redo ALL template edits)

The behavior you are describing is not consistent with version 4.01. If you remove all admin usergroups from the usergroup list in vBstatus options admins will not see the edit link.
