Inti31, i think you should request to take over the development of this mod as the current dev hasn't been online for almost a year now. I would be more than happy to see this mod available for 2.0 as i have been using it for years on my SMF 1.1.x forums. The lack of some crucial mods on 2.0 is the only thing holding me back from upgrading my SMF 1.1.x live forums, unfortunately. :(

Hello, here we go....

i installed successfully this mod in 2.0 Gold - this mod (attached) is ONLY for 2.0 Gold - maybe usable for 2.0 RC x - 1.x is NOT SUPPORTED
Simply install the package to install on the SMF Default  Theme ONLY.

Addition: I also recovered my database backup - it still works fine....

Great stuff. I'll give the "version 3.2" a go. I hope it works. I'd hate to uninstall all my mods just to get this one to work.
Check out my new website, MyAnimeClub.net. I plan to create the largest anime community, and most fun and user-friendly anime forum in the world. It's still in the development stage though.

let me know if it works - I setup a fresh 2.0 Gold forum and this is the first mod I integrated - successful

Well done. It installed without any problems. The mod is working as it should.

I disabled all the features except the Enable Quickly Change Pagination and Enable Filter Per Letter, since all the others are all supported by the forum anyway.

I reckon the most useful feature is the Filter Per Letter feature, since it enables you to browse topics by Letter which is essential when you want your forum board to contain a list of something, for example, Movies, Cars, Series, etc. Of course one can just search for the relevant topic, but searching is too much of a pain.

Again, great work Inti31, and I second sharks suggestion that you should take over the mod. Or at least, ask a moderator to place your new updated version (3.2) on the mod page.

By the way, the mods I have on my forum are:

1.     Topics Filter   3.2   [ Uninstall ]
2.   6 Custom buttons / tabs with Sub Menus (4)   0.5   [ Uninstall ]
3.   Spoiler Tag   0.7.2a   [ Uninstall ]
4.   Sitemap   2.2.0   [ Uninstall ]
5.   Caps_Lock_Detection_on_Login   1.1.0.1   [ Uninstall ]
6.   Vote polls with points   0.1.1   [ Uninstall ]
7.   Google +1   1.0   [ Uninstall ]
8.   NoFollow All Links   1.2.1   [ Uninstall ]
9.   Simple Audio Video Embedder   2.0.1   [ Uninstall ]
10.   SMF Topic Prefix Mod   1.2.2   [ Uninstall ]
11.   PortaMx 1.2   1.2   [ Uninstall ]
12.   Facebook_Like v.2.0   2.0   [ Uninstall ]
13.   Highslide BBCode and Image Viewer

LOL, well, that is exactly the meaning of "taking over an abandoned modification" :D Most of the abandoned/recuperated mods only need some bug fixes and improvements to make them compatible with the latest SMF versions. Only in rare cases do abandoned mods have to be completely rewritten. I honestly think that you deserve to be the successor to this mod, as you made it work with 2.0 final, so you're not without any php talent. ;) Maybe you could even improve it with more refined features. Read through the pages of this topic to get some ideas. I believe i posted quite a few here myself.

In case an abandoned mod is not saved by another developer, the mod quickly becomes obsolete and sinks into oblivion where it's forgotten and useless, as people will normally prefer to keep their SMF installations up-to-date rather than let a modification hold them back on earlier/possibly unstable SMF versions. Also, i think the moderators will remove your attachment/s of the modified mod, unless you are the official developer of this mod, so you better apply for that position fast. You can only post the code edits in a reply, otherwise.

Damn, that's a lot of mods. I'm gonna give Highslide4SMF and SMF Multi Quote another go. Last time I installed them they didn't work. Also, I'm gonna check out that Simple Imageshack Upload Box seems interesting. Hehe, modifying SMF is tons of fun.

nice work, but there´s one problem

if i sort by icon, not all of them will showed
for example:
15 topics and 4 topic with "thumpup"-icon
then in the dropdown-menu click thumpup
but only 1 or 2 were showed and some other icon too
all other filters works fine - only icon-filter went wrong

what could it be ?

Shorti25


Inti31

sorry Shorti25 - I tested it and it works fine - no errors for me...
is that only when using option "filter by thumbsup"-icon?
I've tested all my boards - I've never seen another icon I filtered for...

Do you use another theme or another icon for thumbsup?

I got a Database error. I expect it is because my Database tables have been edited to allow for sharing three forums (Share user database for 2 (or more) different forums and I think this mod might be going WTF in response... But I honestly don't know how to fix it to make it work.

Any help?


The exact error is:

Just emulate your 2.0.1 to be 2.0, and it should install perfectly.

This mod needs an automatic reset when going from board-to-board, anyone achieve this?

Solution :)

Find:

'filter_topic' => isset($user_settings['filter_topic']) ? unserialize($user_settings['filter_topic']) : (empty($_SESSION['filter_topic']) ? '' : unserialize($_SESSION['filter_topic'])),

and then delete it (Found in load.php).

He needs M-DVD's authorization, imagine that you're M-DVD and one day he wants to return because he has a little bit of free time and then he founds that all his mods were transferred to other persons without even asking him, that isn't fair at all. Another option would be to create it from the scratch without using M-DVD's code

Please help, I really want to use this mod!   I just tried to install it but I'm getting the error in installation message:

Error in Package Installation
At least one error was encountered during a test installation of this package. It is strongly recommended that you do not continue with installation unless you know what you are doing, and have made a backup very recently. This error may be caused by a conflict between the package you're trying to install and another package you have already installed, an error in the package, a package which requires another package that you don't have installed yet, or a package designed for another version of SMF.

I'm running SMF 2.0.2 but I get the same error emulating 2.0.  Any suggestions on why I'm getting error and what can I do about it?

Thanks  :)

Inti31

while trying to install that mod - on which file(s)? Please provide a screenshot of that error message and please attach the the file which can't modified also. This mod works fine just the standard theme (tested)

is it
- MessageIndex.template.php or
- MessageIndex.php or
- Load.php
- ManagePosts.php
