Post Anonymously In Topic

[dougiefresh]

I did have one idea for an addition to the mod -- perhaps add an option that lets the person who created the topic view anonymous posts in that topic? Ideally, this could be available as a secondary option for both the "everyone who can see anonymous posts" option, and with "only original poster".

Let me think about this one some....  I've still got those few bugs to work out, and I've got so much to try to address.... 

The problem with that is that you pretty much then need to delineate it to "topic starters in these boards can see the posters" and "topic starters in these boards cannot see the posters" making it a metric ton more complex.

I'm not sure it'd be much more complex, as I'd have to do is check to see if the OP in the thread is the current user....  It's doable...

dont see anything in admin, a check box and 2 number boxes with no description and also get this at top

$txt['PAM_mode'] = 'Who Can See Anonymous Poster:'; $txt['PAM_mode0'] = 'No One. Also disables recording Member ID.'; $txt['PAM_mode1'] = 'No One.'; $txt['PAM_mode2'] = 'Only Original Poster (OP)'; $txt['PAM_mode3'] = 'Everyone with "See Who Posted Anonymously" permission.';

> needs to be added? forget which file

any ideas?

also a nice feature would be members still being to see themselves posted.

That's all right; there's no rush.

Like I said to an opposing volleyball team one time when they were chirping at us to set up more quickly, greatness takes time!

The file should be Admin.english.php

THANKYOU

There was a second occurence of ?> mixed in like I never seen before

FIXED and appreciate it!

[blunted]

ever since installing this im getting errors of anonymous table doesnt exist on numerous actions

[Kindred]

That suggests the that the database creation portion of the install was never run

[blunted]

kinda fixed the error by manually creating a table, not sure if its fully fixed

[blunted]

An Error Has Occurred!
The database value you're trying to insert does not exist: anonymous

guess not.
any idea how to fix?

[dougiefresh]

Looks like you're missing a column in the {db_prefix}messages table.

I would advise extracting the db_install.php file from the package, putting in the root of your forum, then executing it.  For example, if your forum was at www.xptsp.com/forum, then it would become www.xptsp.com/forum/db_install.php.  Once it's run, you can delete the file.

ran it
problem still there

[blunted]

so no solution?

I have run into a similar issue as well...Multiple failed tests on install too.  Tried manually inserting the code that it's failing on, but run into the issue of annonymous being added to database.  Field was present on db.

running SMF 2.0.12 currently.  Running 1.6 of the mod.  What sort of info do I need to provide to help with solving this?

Thanks in advanced!

[dougiefresh]

I haven't looked at the mod lately, mostly because of work and other things......

[blunted]

any idea when you might?
its ruining several areas of my board

[blunted]

no update?

[dougiefresh]

I'm working on the mod.  I've run into a situation where the forum gives a white screen of death, after logging in as a tester (regular member membegroup) that has the "can post anonymously" but not the "can see anonymous posts" permission.....

Well, just telling me it failed on multiple operations doesn't really help me....  Letting me know which operations and having a copy of the affected file attached to a post would greatly help me in assisting you.

I'll get that prolly after weekend due to the holidays.

I only mention that it failed multiple tests on install as I did the manual edits it was trying for myself afterwards and still had problems.

Did anonymous change to anon as a variable on some version? That seemed to have come up if I recall correctly.

I'm working on rewriting the mod at this time, fixing as many bugs as I can and unifying the decisions across all operations....  That being said, any specific information helps on diagnosing these reports....

No clue.  I'm looking into this bug report, too....
