XThreads

ZiNgA BuRgA · (This post was last modified: 12-25-2015 12:46 PM by ZiNgA BuRgA.)

My Spiel
XThreads is one of my larger plugins which I have been working on for a while.  Originally planned to release it inline with MyBB 1.6~~, but who knows when that'll be out~~.  It perhaps doesn't include everything I wanted it to, but does have most of the things (plus I want to move onto other projects).

What does it do?
Take a look at RateU's forum for some nice ideas of what it can do.  I also have some more basic examples here of what can be done with XThreads.  I'm pretty sure there are many other applications of this plugin, but those examples just give you some simple ideas.

The basic idea is giving you the ability to define custom fields for your threads, and providing methods to give you a lot of flexibility with customising forums.

Warning: I'm not going to bother with "beta" labels and so on.  I've done some testing on this myself, but it's by no means extensive.  Use this at your own risk.

Installation Instructions: standard installation procedures apply - you can find them in the announcement here.
You may need to CHMOD the uploads/xthreads_ul/ folder to 0777 after uploading the files (probably won't though).

Upgrade Instructions: unless stated otherwise, the general procedure for upgrades is to simply upload the new files, then visit your AdminCP.  In there, you'll be presented with a notice to run the upgrade - just follow what it says from there on.

Usage Instructions: this is a complex plugin, and unfortunately, you're probably going to have to figure this out yourself, depending on what you want to achieve with this plugin.  HTML and CSS knowledge is strongly recommended; you should also be familiar with MyBB's template system.  Some demonstrations can be found here - hopefully these will give you a good idea of how things work.  I suggest looking at the thread descriptions example, as this is fairly easy to understand (IMO).  If you can understand how everything works, there, perhaps try out the gallery example.

Known conflicting plugins
- MyPlaza Turbo -
If you are using MyPlaza Turbo, note that the author decided to use a particularly odd method to implement certain functionality, practically destroying compatibility with any plugin which hooks into the forum add/edit routines.  I've included a patch to address this issue - you need to replace inc/myplaza/myplaza_admin_plugin.php with the following file (it's unlikely that this will be committed as the author has decided to discontinue development)

.php

myplaza_admin_plugin.php (Size: 56.27 KB / Downloads: 2423)

- PL9 Forum Icons -
Affects certain functionality. See here for a solution.

- PHP in Templates, v1.4 or older -
Similar to PL9 Forum Icons - solution is just to update to the latest version.

- MyAdvertisements - (update: older versions only, later versions may not conflict)
Affects some thread functionality, see here for a solution.

- Group Post CSS -
See here http://mybbhacks.zingaburga.com/showthre...http://mybbhacks.zingaburga.com/showthread.php?tid=378&pid=59

All bug reports, suggestions, criticisms are appreciated (though I may not always implement suggestions) so please feel free to post them.
If you find this plugin useful, I would be grateful if you could give some token of appreciation for the work that has gone into this, and perhaps post some example usages you've come up with in the XThreads forum to help others get an idea of what can be achieve with this plugin (and for my own interest's sake Tongue

).

have you uploaded all the files in the correct folder and replaced? -->activated?

WINBOY · 11-19-2012 08:47 PM

yes...i had uploaded through plugin uploader and also activated.

MrBrechreiz · 11-19-2012 08:59 PM

may be that you have no choice than to reinstall it

***ZiNgA BuRgA*** · 11-19-2012 09:44 PM

You clearly don't read anything do you?
Upgrade instructions are bolded in the first post and you refuse to read it.

Although I suspect you've done something odd, I am somewhat interested in how you managed to cause XThreads to give that error. Please post your cache/xthreads_evalcache.php file.

Okay, that's arguably my fault. Thanks for the file.

Updated to v1.61:
- Fix backwards compatibility with Display Format referencing itself via $threadfields[...] for file fields (thanks for WINBOY for finding)

Riiiiight.
So I presume you haven't set the field to be required, and no error message displays?

Also, I'm not here 24/7 waiting for you to post your problems so please stop acting like an ass. I don't fucking owe you anything.
