RE: Forum Update/Upgrade - FlyingMongoose - 09-09-2015

So, just sifting through add-ons that MyBB has
http://community.mybb.com/mods.php?action=view&pid=117 <-- thought this nifty

This just looks interesting
http://community.mybb.com/mods.php?action=view&pid=275

(I think this is a default feature anyway)
http://community.mybb.com/mods.php?action=view&pid=128

A "Likes" system
http://community.mybb.com/mods.php?action=view&pid=24

Also it does look like there's a "Reputation" system (isn't that similar to Karma?)

I want to be able to rate every feature of these new boards.

I already blocked it anyway.



Is there a way to stay logged in?

Click the login at the top with an invalid username/password, or just go here. The page it redirects you to has a Remember Me option.

Very late to the party but the new forum looks great. Definitely a lot nicer than SMF.

The API plugin isn't installed by any chance right?


RE: Forum Update/Upgrade - FlyingMongoose - 09-10-2015

Documentation: http://docs.mybb.com

Just build a plugin that exposes what you need for your bot.

I'll rewrite the entire forum before I'll touch PHP again... Tongue


RE: Forum Update/Upgrade - FlyingMongoose - 09-10-2015

Then just use a scraper. It's not elegant but it'll do what you want;

http://www.brbuninstalling.com/search.php?action=unreads <-- scrape that page based on your log in, done.

It's either use PHP like a savage, or build a scraper like a savage, the API plugin hasn't been updated in a long time, though I'm sure it does work with this current version.

This is the only plugin I've found:

RE: Forum Update/Upgrade - HeK - 09-11-2015

So I kinda have a post rating system in place, kinda like Karma.
It'll display the results on your profile screen.

I'll eventually work out a way to display something next to your name.


RE: Forum Update/Upgrade - Luinbariel - 09-11-2015

The icon for the dongs one is hilarious


RE: Forum Update/Upgrade - HeK - 09-12-2015

Two bbcode/mycode options that have been added:

[spoiler]The spoiler tag will hide text until you click to unhide it.[/spoiler]

[hide]The hide tag will hide text to unregistered users. Good for server details and illicit con badge dealings.[/hide]

Neither code has been added to the text editor toolbar yet. I'm still working on that bit. You can still invoke either manually with [spoiler] and [hide]

We should do a snail/salt rating system.

Holy fuck that's an amazing idea


RE: Forum Update/Upgrade - HeK - 09-14-2015

Yeah, we can do that.

How should it work? One karma vote per post per person? Same function as the old forum?
Display their saltiness under their name on the side bar?

Maybe as if rating their devotion to either salt or snails to the correct faction, somehow? .@ii

Not sure how that would be triggered, though.

Salt for salty posts and snails for superior posts because snails are superior.


RE: Forum Update/Upgrade - Didzo - 09-14-2015

Post makes you salty? Mark it as salt.

Post is clearly superior? Snail.

I approve of this system.

Also, The Snail/Salt points would ideally be treated and displayed as they were on the old forum.


RE: Forum Update/Upgrade - CaffeinePowered - 09-15-2015

I approve of this
