I am happy to have this mod approved. Although, the approval process was quite challenging but it was really nice because I learn more.

Download and install this mod and provide your feedback here. Thanks.

Good mod, especially for people with no knowledge of file modifications.
It is very light , it should not be a problem for overall performance of forums.
Congrats.

Nice job though

Have you tried to install it on other theme? It should install in other themes as well.

I think other themes will need manual editing of the index.template and the language file.

You may have read my post on the mod mod of yours.

You cant just embed your website on people's index.template file. Its a security risk.
Make sure you strip that, Otherwise your mods will be reported.

Thank you for your feedback. Please read below my response there:

The name you're seeing is not an issue. That is the name of the mod.

Secondly, what you see in your index.template.php is a javascript for the mod. You don't have to be giving me such order. You're not paying for the mod. It is free and optional for you to install. Please note that, if this mod is unsafe, SMF Customisation Team would not have approved it.

Anyway, It is a mod in progress. Your remarks have been taken as feedback for future improvement.

Thank you.

I found out from the Tynt Company and the response was below:

QuoteTynt Insight currently works on all popular web browsers & Operating Systems including: IE 7-8, Firefox, Safari & Chrome on Windows 7, XP, Vista, and Mac OS.

Right now, we don't have plans to support the Opera browser.

The mod modifies the original Tynt javascript code and phones home data to the Infostrides server, which is absolutely not necessary for Tynt to function. Infostrides are aggravating data without actively telling users of their mod that they do so.

What puts insults next to injury is that that server is awfully slow and can cause page load times of around 10 seconds.

For anyone who wants to use Tynt without this questionable mod: Simply install the Global / Headers Footers mod, get your Tynt js code from tynt.com and put it in the footer.

Hello there everyone!
Congratulations for your very nice mod...  :)

Iam running SMF 2.0 RC3 forum and iam trying to install the Tynt-SMF Tracer Mod v1.0
At the beggining of the installation i have an Error in Package Installation.
This is the error:

Execute Modification  ./Themes/default/index.template.php  Test failed
Add Before ./Themes/default/index.template.php


Anyway, i try to do the installation manually and i figure out that in :
./Themes/default/index.template.php
Cannot find the :
// Output any remaining HTML headers. (from mods, maybe?)
And  add before the :
[i]
//Tynt-SMF Tracer Mod Starts Here
if (!empty($modSettings['tynt_on']) && !empty($modSettings['tynt_userid']) && isset($modSettings['tynt_linkprefix']))
echo '
    <script type="text/javascript">tyntVariables = {"ap":"', $modSettings['tynt_linkprefix'] . '"};</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://mods.theinfostrides.com/scripts/Tracer.js?user=', $modSettings['tynt_userid'] . '"></script>';

//Tynt-SMF Tracer Mod Ends Here [/i]


Any suggestions?

QuoteCopy this script to all your pages into either the <HEAD> or <BODY> tag (the closer to the top, the quicker it will start working during page load):

All my pages???

Or just the index template?

This has been addressed in the new mod. Global Header & Footers mod is fine but the difference Tynt-SMF Tracer mod gives you chance to enable or disable it from the admin area. Thanks for your observation.

I guess you have done manual edit before in that section of index.template.php file which had caused you to close a space or line. This can cause it. Install the new version and let me have your feedback.

Hi, thanks for this mod man, i want to ask you, how i can change the "Read more:" text before the url?  in the original Tynt code that´s possible, in yours not, any idea?

the original code from Tynt. : 

Tynt.push('user id here');Tynt.i={"ap":"Read more"};
(function(){var s=document.createElement('script')


Your mod code its:
Tynt.push(\'', $modSettings['tynt_userid'] . '\');
(function(){var s=document.createElement(\'script\')


edit: i made a little change to your code and get this working, this its the modified code:

var Tynt=Tynt||[];Tynt.push(\'', $modSettings['tynt_userid'] . '\');Tynt.i={"ap":"Read more:"};
(function(){var s=document.createElement(\'script\')

Just installed on smf 2.04 and works a treat

If you have the ads management mod installed you can just add the code to that, instead of trying to add it to the page template, set it so it shows on each page under the menu, Nothing shows but you know the code is working.

I then copied and pasted to word something from my site and its works!!
