We installed this on our forum and it almost drove me nuts. This is what happened:

1. Just after we installed, I started getting lots of SMS from members of the board (working fine, nice), so I closed all SMS windows and disabled it on my user cp

2. After some time, I noticed that whenever I tried to post a reply (advanced) or create a new thread, I could no longer use the post toolbar (B I U ....) or the smiles, I clicked on them and it did nothing. The one on quick reply worked perfect.

Well, today I have done lots of tests with IE and Firefox and it was not working. I then created a temporary account and used that, weird, it works perfect. So, I knew I didn't have anything wrong on my configuration.

Back to my account, I started changing all settings since the time I noticed it stoped working. When I entered user cp and re-enabled SMS, logged out, logged it, wow, I got a lot of SMS messages that were probably queued to me. Funny thing, after this, the toolbar and smiles are working again, no problems at all.

On IE, I could see that an error was being generated (see attached picture).

It seems that, if you have SMS messages waiting and you have disabled SMS on your user profile, it is interfering with the vbulletin sofware in a way that a user can't use some features till he clears the queue.

Hope this helps find what is wrong here.

isnt a sms the thing you send a recive with a moblie phone?

SMS means Short Message System. it is a term that has primarily been used for Text Messaging on Cell Phones.

A more appropriate term for this hack might be "Quick" Messaging System but SMS works.

I have tested you SMS mod's. He should approve you have done some nice work to the SMS System.

Good job.

Basically all templates are changed quite a lot to look "better" (imho), but also "leaner" with no click smilies etc.

I've changed it so banned/moderated members can't use the system.

It's "opt in" based on a custom user field and the sms/pager link is shown on postbits only, and only if both the user, and the poster, have the system enabled.

Few other bits I'm not sure entirely.

Anyway, coud someone please tell me the deal with posting modified mods in case anyone wants it "my way"?

Thanks.

Oh yes, I use it on v 3.0.3

I'd really like to install your modified version if it's specific to 3.0.3. I'm having a lot of issues with hacks that aren't compatible. I'll keep my fingers crossed he says it's ok!!

[Codeman05]

is there anyway to adjust the size of the popup window...1/2 of the message box is cutoff on mine
