Content Ratings for IPB4

There was a Content Ratings add-on for IPB3 that my users loved and I was wondering if there was going to be one for IPB4 as I'd surely pay for it and I'm sure a few others would as well.  Unfortunately the one for IPB3 is no longer available for download, so I cannot link to it to show what I'm talking about, however it is available as an archive on the DevFuse boards.  Here's a link to it:

And here's a GIF of what the plug-in did on IPB3:

You can ask DevFuse if he's willing to update the mod.  I would also like post ratings for v4

It's not actually an app of mine, that's just an rss import of the ips resources feed.

I did however do some custom modifications to it for someone last year, here is the documentation for the app with contact details. I believe Rimi was the creator of this.

Hi. I made this. C:

I can upgrade it I guess. I haven't worked with IPS 4 yet though. Have a lot of reading to do if people really want it.

IPS said (somewhere) that will make significative improvements on the reputation system. It will be something like your old app. Just to let you know. Probably in 4.2 or 4.3, who knows.

Oh. Thanks for letting me know. Good to see you're still around. :)

Can you show me what they said specifically?

I messaged Rimi and Michael and DevFuse as well, hoping someone will undertake this as I would really like it and would be willing to pay for it.

I'm more than happy to pay for an up to date version too; it's the one thing stopping me moving on to 4.

Ok thanks.

So are the people in this thread content to wait then?

No.  Because there's no guarantee that IPS will offer content ratings and probably not in the way that we envision content ratings.

Idk, I'd like to see what they said before committing.

Saiga good to see you around still :)

I actually brought your content rating app(you had wanted to test it and the other mod on my forum). I personally wouldn't mind paying again on IPB4 for your product. Because your mod was essentially the EXACT xenforo equivalent of my favorite mod there.

Is it possible, in the meantime, to get an enhanced mentions mod? While we have mods in IPB4, it would be awesome to get the ability(like on Xenforo) to be able to tag individual usergroups(of course set and restricted by permission groups) as well.

I have to echo Joel's sentiments as well @Saiga

I applaud IPS for implementing instant notifications and even the desktop notification on 4.1. However....there was a 3.X mod that handled the notifications better(and I do sort of prefer the Facebook esque way of push notifications vs our implementation). While it is certainly feasible and better than nothing, IPS doesn't exactly do things the way we envision them and it likely wont be anything similar to your app for content ratings.

Obviously as I started the topic I'd be willing to pay for you to upgrade this mod now.  I love this mod and there's no guarantee IPB will update their reputation system to be anything close to this mod.  My users have been requesting this mod for the updated forum script.  I don't know what others would be willing to pay, but I'd shell out $20 for an updated mod now.

I'll be completely honest with you guys. I don't actually have any of my old mods and stuff saved anywhere I remember. I have it saved SOMEWHERE, but no idea where. Would have to dig around. But if someone has a copy of my content ratings mod lying around and wants to send it to me that might be better. I can prove I am who I say I am by editing that documentation link with all the kawaii animu ladies if necessary. 

Another thing though, while I've retained a lot of my PHP knowledge I know nothing of IPS 4. I'm willing to work on this project since I can see there's a wide spread interest in it, but it could take over a month before I finish. If you know anything about me from when I did develop for IPB 3.4 though then hopefully you know that I'll deliver. I do work full time now though (as a web developer! Who would've though huh? :D) compared to back then when I was still in college so I honestly don't know how much time a day I can dedicate. 

Really it's important to understand that there's a big gap here because I haven't touched IPS since 3.4/3.5. I don't even have an active license right now. I need a copy of my old mod, I need to learn the IPS 4 framework, and I need to see my application running on a site somewhere because I legit don't remember all the functionality it had. If anyone is willing to cooperate with me and get me access to a site where my old app is running that would also be helpful. 

Does anyone even remember how much I charged initially? Was $25 I think?

Ok I found what was on IPS's feature plan thing that Adriano told me about

Reputation System Improvements


×

Our existing reputation system is really good and lets users get points based on the quality, rather than quantity, of content posted. But we think it can be better. We plan on adding features such as:

  • More ways to get reputation rather than only receiving a "like" or "up vote" on a post.
  • Reputation sub-types. Think clicking like and then being able to optionally put in why you like it. (informative, funny, helpful, etc.)
  • Cross integrate with the highlight system
  • A totally new rewards system with tiers and various options for what a member gets
  • More member-discovery features based on reputation.

I don't know guys...this sounds an awful lot like what my app did. In fact even better. I'm feeling discouraged lol

It seems you have a lot of interest from people to update it.  Clearly there is money to be made by updating this mod.  I'm not going to beg you to do it, if you want, that would be great, but if you don't, that's your call.  I'm just saying, for $25, I'd definitely purchase an upgrade to it.
