Redmak Posted October 26, 2022 Posted October 26, 2022 I have a suggestion/request: Let us control the ignored quote setting Also in the ACP Because if we are fully expanding quotes, it makes sense to hide ignored members quotes, like posts are already ignored. Or at least "flip the switch" to have ignored users quotes hidden by default in the Quote Enhancements, and allow them to unhide them (why would they?). 😛
Nathan Explosion Posted October 26, 2022 Author Posted October 26, 2022 So, to summarise - add a setting to enable the 'Hide ignored quotes' setting for all users, by default? Is that correct? Redmak 1
Nathan Explosion Posted October 26, 2022 Author Posted October 26, 2022 No worries - I'll take a closer look over the weekend, but it won't be difficult.

OK - full disclosure though, it's not likely to be something I'll work on 'fixing' quickly. The application isn't intended to handle AJAX added elements so a re-design of code would be required.

The Box Office Theory Posted November 7, 2022 Posted November 7, 2022 On 9/21/2022 at 3:57 PM, Nathan Explosion said: Correct. But you indicated that you stopped using it due to incompatibilities...are you just indicating that it needs a compatibility update to allow installation on 4.6/4.7, or did you experience an issue with the actual application itself? Compatibility. On 10/24/2022 at 8:14 AM, Nathan Explosion said: v2.2.0 was approved recently and is now compatible with IPS 4.7.x v2.2.1 is currently pending approval, and the only change is to remove the 'Max' on the "Number of lines to show in truncated quotes" setting, as it no longer appears to be an requirement to have it there...a bigger number can now be used. Thank you for this! My Moderating team (and a lot of members) will be very happy to hear they have these features back. Nathan Explosion 1
Nathan Explosion Posted November 8, 2022 Author Posted November 8, 2022 v2.2.2 is currently pending approval. NEW added an ACP setting to allow the setting of the default value for handling of ignored quotes. The setting comes into effect if: you allow users control over their own settings but a user hasn't yet chosen their own settings or you do not allow user control over settings.

Hey Nathan, Any chance you've heard an update on this?
Nathan Explosion Posted November 30, 2022 Author Posted November 30, 2022 An update on what exactly? Are you having an issue with the new setting?
Nathan Explosion Posted November 30, 2022 Author Posted November 30, 2022 (edited) I'm going to hazard a guess that you are asking if the approval was done - yes, it was...2 weeks ago. If you are relying on me posting in here to say it has been approved then please don't as I won't - I'll post once to say a release has been submitted. If you require a notification when a release is actually available (has been approved) then go to the resource and click the "Send me version updates" link located on there and you'll get a notification.

PPlanet Posted February 22, 2023 Posted February 22, 2023 Hi @Nathan Explosion. I hope you're well. On my site there's something a bit odd with this plugin. It will honour the "Hide ignored quotes" selection, only if you use fully expanded quotes. However, it doesn't seem to work with the default "Truncated quotes" (it doesn't hide them completely but gives you the option to see the content instead). Also, I told my users to do that (use fully expanded quotes) as a workaround, but someone who is ignoring 18 people (yes, I know, pretty low tolerance level 😉) came forward and said his account was experiencing all sort of problems. And yes, from what I saw they look like Ajax problems, that I assume it's due to the number of users he's ignoring. This happens to him if he selects fully expanded quotes. It's fine with the default truncated quotes, but then again he can't use my proposed workaround to the first problem. I wonder if you could replicate some of these problems or if it's just on my site that it's doing it.

According to him this happened only in topics he had started, but I'm not so sure. I guess that was basically it. I logged in as him to see what he meant and I think that's was what he was referring by lots of problems (basically just the one in more than one thread). As, I said I reverted his account to truncated quotes, and that problem disappeared. Cheers. Edited February 22, 2023 by PPlanet

OK - while I cannot reproduce this, there is an improvement I can make with the "Hide ignored quotes" setting that moves the removal of the quote to the back-end processing instead of front-end Javascript, and that will be in the next version of the application.

Nathan Explosion Posted March 2, 2023 Author Posted March 2, 2023 v2.2.3 is currently pending approval CHANGES Removal of ignored quotes, if the "Hide ignored quotes" setting is enabled, is now performed on content prior to sending to the browser instead of via Javascript in the browser (performance improvement if a large number of quotes needed to be ignored) FIXES Fixed issue where the 'Expand' link at the base of a quote may remain visible if ignoring a user's posts.

MNOfficial Posted May 9, 2023 Posted May 9, 2023 Since upgrading, I've had zero issues, but my co-admin has told me even with "Fully collapsed" chosen the quotes are not fully collapsed. I suggested they clear their cookies/cache to see if it fixes, but is there anything else you might be able to think of?
Nathan Explosion Posted May 12, 2023 Author Posted May 12, 2023 (edited) You've mentioned it works for you - you've advised them to clear browser cache. I don't have any other suggestions, hence no response. Come up with some working reproduction steps and I'll test it out. Edited May 12, 2023 by Nathan Explosion

I know I tried changing my setting to another one, and then returned to "Fully collapsed", and then it stopped fully collapsing, and they tried to same, as well. We'll see what the update does once approved! Crossing my fingers. 🤞🏻
