*Salvo* Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Hi guys - Sorry for the delayed reply, have been away from the office. I'll take a look at both problems tomorrow night! Misterphilip, did you check the hook, to understans where's the problem? I'll appreciate. Link to comment
Owdy Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 This should be built in to IPB Link to comment
MisterPhilip Posted February 21, 2011 Author Share Posted February 21, 2011 I've been looking into it, and I am pretty sure I know where the problem is.. however, given the limitations of IPB's item marking it is proving more difficult than originally thought. Basically what it is doing now is pulling the last X (the # set in the admin panel) topics that you've posted in, ordered by most recent at the top. From there, we loop through all of those results and compare it with the cookie values and see if it has been read or not. Problem with this is, if you've read all of the last X topics that were updated, it doesn't pull any older ones. I've been working on a few different ideas to help pull more accurate info from the database to begin with, but no luck so far. I could do it to loop until X replies have been found... but that would pull a lot more server resources (a bunch of queries) which is something I'm trying to avoid. Don't worry though, I'm not giving up ;) As far as only having 1 reply show up, I still haven't found anything (unless the above scenario is the case with you.) Is it for all accounts, or just yours? And finally, not showing up in hooks, each skin has a little bit different of hook points. I'm trying to find a good place, but it seems most hook points within that dropdown aren't always there. Any good suggestions? I've also thought about making it a side hook for the main page like the recent content hook or what have you. Thoughts? Link to comment
Luis Manson Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 i can not help you, but i just wanna thank you for your effort Link to comment
MisterPhilip Posted March 3, 2011 Author Share Posted March 3, 2011 Just an update: it looks like the topic marking system is going to get fixed (well, improved but really its a fix lol) which will hopefully do what I need it to do then... we'll have to see what they come up with. Link to comment
UK Fiesta Network Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 MisterPhilip, I am also experiencing the problem of only one result coming up, despite VNC showing a number of unread topics in which I have previously posted. I have upped the Limit as far as 5000 and it still hasn't brought any additional results in, aside from the most recent unread reply. This is occurring regardless of skin, affecting the default IPB skin as well as our regular one. I have just replaced v 1.0.2 with v 1.0.1, which brings up all the expected results, so it's definitely something within the latest version that is causing the issue. Hope this helps. As soon as it's resolved I'll definitely be reinstalling. Very good idea. Link to comment
HappyCanadians.com Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Require few changes on the document .pdf you provided you wrote "There are 2 setting options with this hook. You can find these options under Forum > Topics, Posts, and Polls" change that to "There are 2 setting options with this hook. You can find these options under System > Tools & Settings > Forum > Topics, Posts, and Polls" :) Link to comment
zatzllc Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Any word on 3.2 compatibility? Link to comment
Shadow82x Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 3.2 already has this built in the VNC. Just select "Topics I participated in" under "Other". Link to comment
Luis Manson Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 but there are no options for "only with replies" Link to comment
*Salvo* Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 http://community.invisionpower.com/index.php?app=core&module=search&do=user_activity supplies, if I'm not wrong. and it bumps from the recent replies to the latest. It should be useful if a tab is dedicated on the nav bar. Link to comment
Dmacleo Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 smf one also tells you of new posts when you hit post button, does this do that? this is what the 3.2 VNC does not do. Link to comment
*Salvo* Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 That's true. I was moderator on SMF. This hook is nice, but never used it, finding other ways to monitor new replies, as it never worked properly on my board. But if an upgrade will be done...why not? Link to comment
MisterPhilip Posted September 12, 2011 Author Share Posted September 12, 2011 Hi guys, sorry for the hiatus on here. I was going to start working on updating this for 3.2, but as others have pointed out... it is indeed (finally) a default function. You can get the same results as the SMF function by doing the following "View New Content" options: Link to comment
