I'm also spending time looking into Facebook interconnection
Fantastic, I'm extremely interested in SMF using Facebook Connect.

Nao 尚

Yeah that's what I'm looking into... It looks possible to do it (I think a couple of hours will be enough to integrate it), but I'm not sure it can be made as a mod.
So I'm looking into adding it to one of my boards (either cynarhum.com or noisen.com) first, and then I'll think about sharing my knowledge with the community.
noisen.com already supports OpenID (thanks to a SMF2 feature), maybe I could plug fbConnect into the same code or something. (So, yeah, before you ask--if I ever do a mod out of it, if it's possible, then it will be SMF2 only. But I probably won't get this out for a few months, so maybe SMF2 Final will be out by then :P)

This mod advertises the fact that people can't bump topics but is that really an issue for most of us admins? Surely that sort of behaviour is limited to support type forums and therefore most of us downloading this mod actually want the topic to be bumped.

The MOD advertises that double post (flood, bump, blah) will be automatically merged with the prev post.

If this is not what you want, then you have using the mod that you should not.

Sorry if I'm not being clear, what I want is when you merge two posts, the latest post stays which therefore bumps the topic. Currently when you merge two posts, the latest post is moved into the first meaning a new reply is not signalled.

In programming and technology should aim at efficiency. The mission to fulfill is Auto Merge DoublePost. The current way to make that task is better than it you say.

It reads as "mania geek", but has led to technology to where it is today.

Besides, it sounds like something small, something small that can avoid to Administrator changing the Host plan, with more resources, more RAM, more CPU and more $$$$.

Therefore, I say that I will not add anything, in a way that makes very "heavy" a simple function.

Nao, it seems M-DVD is not keen on adding this to his mod so yes, it would be awesome if you could release yours to work with 1.1.7.

I have not refusing to add certain features. I said to check the codes Nao's, to see that I can add.

Also I said that this feature is good for "Merge Post", but also when "Modify Last Post"; or not? Why should it be unique to "Merge Post"? Maybe someone wants this feature to all cases, not only for the case of the Merge.

Note: And if Nao want make a MOD with his style and codes, then I am happy. I am among those who thinks it's good, if there are many alternatives and the people are free to choose.

I am glad that the interest in the "Merge Post" has "reborn". Since this issue was "abandoned" for many months and year; and were many requests of a MOD to do this work.

No, only Languajes.zip file has been updated.

Would it be possible to mod this into something which DOES bump the topic, but merges the two posts?

As in, so that the user replying to his post will cause the topic to be bumped, but for it to be added into their previous post rather than having a whole new row for them, like the old, no longer compatible "Auto Merge Double Post" feature did?

Yes, I can do it, but, I would not made for this MOD; I think that it is not unique feature for this mod (and if the user not "Double Posted" and modify his message, you do not want bump into this case?). Soon you will have this functionality.

I had this problem with this modification before and uninstalled it, I figured by now it was fixed so I just installed this modification again and am having this problem where members are told "the time limit has passed for an edit" when they try to post an update to their threads... therefore it doesn't let them even post, it's calling their attempt to post, an "edit"... it's supposed to just merge their double post I thought. I have it set to 1 day, my understanding is if 24 hours have passed since their last post, it will let them post as normal and only act via merging if it's been under 24 hours since their last post.

Am I doing something wrong?

Is correct, as you has told, it seems that everything is done well and should work as it should.

Abstract:
Day X: Time: 03:00
      The user creates the Post
Day X: Time: 05:30
      The user tries post again (double post).
      The MOD merge the posts (editing) with the prev post.
Day X: Time: 21:20
      The user tries post again (double post).
      The MOD merge the posts (editing) with the prev post. Again.

Day X + 1: Time: 03:00
      The user tries post again (double post).
      Now the MOD allows double post.

I cannot reproduce the error you say.

I can see your forum? (URL and user / pass test)

Nice one M-DVD, are you going to add a feature so the topic will be bumped on double post merge, just like Nao's?

I think that would be a major improvement as I'm sure so many of us admin would like that.

Quote from: AlenNS on December 18, 2008, 10:42:26 AM
This is great ideas. If post 1 would be deleted after merging it would be always shown on recent post list.

You can use this MOD Notify Modification Last Post. Is more specific to that role and more configurable as you like.

Works when the last post is edit, with or without fusion.
