    Same issue, I have found another plugin that will work. Thanks though

    I'm pleased that you where able to find a plug-in which worked for you. :)

    I am puzzled that the version in the market place doesn't work, as that version was was to fix that issue. Also note, before any posts show, you have to edit the plugin settings and then save. If you don't do this, nothing will show up.

    My suggestion would be to uninstall the plug-in, clear out your cache and re-install. and try place the block. Also, could you check your system & error logs to see if there is anything there in regards to the plug-in.

     

    TDB Stop Shouting (RC)

    Posted

    Updated: to version 1.0.1

    Changes are as follows:

    Fixed: Bug were letters would be capitalised after an apostrophe.
    Change: Re-wrote a lot of code to better handle names like McNeill, O’Neill etc. Still not perfect, but should be a little better.
    Changed: CMS titles should work a lot better than previously before.
    Changed: cleaned up some slow routines and should be faster than the previous version.

    There are possibly other changes or bugs which have escaped me at this time.

    I would also like to point out, this plug-in is no longer considered RC.

    Could you explain with examples the differences between Case Types?

    Are 5 different types of casing that you can use. No Modification, Sentence Case, Upper Case, Lower Case and Title Case.

    Thanks.

    1. No Modification: Makes no change to the title. This is for when you want to use other  options such as remove excessive punctuation.
    2. Sentence Case: Lowers all characters in the string and makes the first letter of the first Word uppercase. example: "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog",
    3. Upper Case: Makes all letters uppercase in the sentence. Example: "THE QUICK BROWN FOX JUMPS OVER THE LAZY DOG",
    4. Lower Case: Makes all letters in the sentence lowercase: Example: "the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog",
    5. Title Case: Makes the first letter of everyone word uppercase while lowering the rest. "The Quick Brown Fox Jumps Over The Lazy Dog".

    I hope that helps. Sorry for taking so long, I never got any notification of replies to this post.

    I loaded this plugin last night, It shows on the wizard and I put the block in place and configure the settings......but nothing ever shows. Any ideas?

    Plugin is broken. The block never appears. Which forums it should display topics from is never saved.

    Sorry to hear that you're both having issues with the plug-in. The last update should have fixed this issue.

    I would suggest re-download from market,  uninstall any version may have installed, clear IPS cache and install the latest version.  Once reinstalled, edit from the frontend and save.

    If this still doesn't work for you, please contact me via PM and I will have a look at this for you.

     

    Advanced Tags & Prefixes - IPS 4.x

    I understand what you're saying, and I responded to that specifically. I can't fix your uppercase/lowercase problem without making the system case-insensitive altogether. I can't do that because it would be worse for performance and it could just as well break things for any site relying on the current (case-sensitive) behavior. Would be a breaking change.

    As for changing from lower- to non-lower, again, use the admin manage tags tool. You can fix each tag/prefix in bulk. Unless you have hundreds of prefixes to go through and correct, it's not going to take you a massive amount of time.

    Why not add a css style to convert the case from lower to upper?

    TDB Posts is a Topic Feed Block with a lot of options to help display your Topics the way you want and... it's free. :)

    Just updated the Plug-in to version v1.04. This version has a lot of bug fixes, changes and new options.

    Changes from the previous version.

    1. Change: Re-wrote most of the widget coding. Being new to IPS I used wrong functions that dealt with the plugin settings.
    2. Change: Removed admin settings, all the plug-in settings are not done via the front end for easier management.
    3. Fix: There was a missing file that prevented the plug-in from working correctly.
    4. Fix: There was a caching issue that slowed the forum down with large databases. The plug-in now caches correctly.
    5. Added: Honour Permissions: IPS forum hides posts that members do not have permission to see, toggling this will allow your members to see these posts. Same behaviour as the Default Topic Feed options.
    6. Added:  Group filtering, posts can be displayed from selected groups.
    7. Added: Status, Pinned, Featured, Visibility and Approval options. Plug-in can now filter Topics/Posts via these different options.
    8. Added: Authors: Topics/Posts can be filtered by multiple Authors.
    9. Added: Minimum Posts, Topics can be filtered to show by the amount of replies.
    10. Added: Filter Topics by a set amount of days or from the beginning.
    11. Added: Sort by pull down menu. You can now sort by Default, Recently Updated, Title, Most Commented, Start Date and Most Viewed.
    12. Added: By Default, IPS Topic Feed only displays the first Topic information regardless of how many replies the Topic has. With this option, you can elect to use the last posters information and comment.
    13. Added: Display Hidden Files Only. You can now filter the block feed to only display Hidden files. Excellent for your moderation team.
    14. Added: Post Dates, enable to disable the post date from being displaying in the block.
    15. Added: Topic Forum, enable or disable the Topic Forum from being displayed.
    16. Added: Mini Pagination, enable or disable Pagination from being displaced with the block.
    17. Added: Best Answers, enable or disable the ability to display Questions that have been answered or requiring an answer on your forum.
    18. Added: Polls, you can now filter the block to only display Topics that have Polls on your forum.
    19. Added: Preview Post on hover. When hovering over the topic link in the block a preview will be displayed of the first and last post.
    20. Bugs Fixes. Loads of little bug fixes and changes.

    Please let me know if you find any bugs, issue or would like to see any new features in the next version.

    Thanks.

    Do it by editing a php is easy. I'm not sure it is "hookable". Again:

    That's not a "table" to make joins. It is created like that in the model: 

    
 		/* Sort */
 		$sortOptions = array();
 		foreach ( array( 'updated', 'title', 'num_comments', 'date', 'views', 'rating_average' ) as $k )
 		{
	 		if ( isset( $class::$databaseColumnMap[ $k ] ) )
	 		{
		 		$sortOptions[ $class::$databaseColumnMap[ $k ] ] = 'sort_' . $k;
	 		}
 		}
		$form->add( new \IPS\Helpers\Form\Select( 'widget_feed_sort_on', isset( $this->configuration['widget_feed_sort_on'] ) ? $this->configuration['widget_feed_sort_on'] : $class::$databaseColumnMap['updated'], FALSE, array( 'options' => $sortOptions ) ), NULL, NULL, NULL, 'widget_feed_sort_on' );

    So I'm not sure I can do this. Will take a look.

    I see what you mean, I will have a look and see what I can come up with and if I come across a solution then I will pass it on to you. :)

    Edited my post.

    Anyway, you mean a new option here?

    Capturar.png

    I can certainly add new fields, like I already did in other apps but I'm not sure I can add an option there. Will take a look when I start to work in another version.

    Yup, another option in the sort by.

    I could do all this myself, but I just don't want to the pain of having to update my edits every-time you do a new release (I just don't have that amount of time ;))

    Thanks again,

    No. Those options are columns in the quiz table. I'm not sure I can add a query to count records in another table.

    You can't do a 'Join' for this?

    What's New in Version 1.1.0:

    - New Feature:

    • A new type of quiz is now available: Study Mode. This mode has no time challenge and no score, so users will may take the time they need in each question. There will be a button to display the explanation about the correct answer. A new field (type of quizzes) was added in every category, so admins can choose types of quizzes per category. Admin can use more than type per category. User will choose the type when creating the quiz on quiz post screen. There will be quiz converter (convert from Graded to Study or vice-versa) on quiz view.

    - Fixes:

    Can you add the ability to sort by 'Most Plays' in the Quiz Feed (For popular Blocks) please?

    Fixed in next version.

    It seems aligned to me on desktop:

    Capturar.png

    or on mobile:

    Capturar.png

     

    It doesn't appear like that to you?

    ---------------------------------------------

    Regarding suggestions, I appreciate. I won't discuss item by item because I don't want to compromise with none it but I will certainly take some into consideration for the forthcoming versions.

    On Mobile the alignment seems fine, on desktop the numbers on the left should be top aligned or  match the right-hand column as the row doesn't look 'even'. It's no big deal, I can change the CSS style to suit me. :)

    The other changes were just for your consideration. However, if you don't wish to add the global rankings/leadership table, I will add this myself. My members have stated that they do miss this as a feature on our forum.

    @Adriano Faria

    Thank you for the update.

    May I ask that you could possibly make some changes to the index page please and some possible fixes?

    Fixes:

    1. Quiz Statistic Box only handles vertical mode and not horizontal. Therefore I cannot place it with the main body blocks as it will displayed incorrectly.
    2. Leaders Rankings in the quiz area as some alignment issues, it doesn't look like everything is 'middle aligned' and looks off.
    3. Language Defines Issues: In the Extra fields there are some issues with some language defines not showing up correctly. category_forums_integration & cf_topic are not displaying as they should be.

    Changes:

    1. If no quiz Image is selected, can we default to the Quiz Category Image instead? This would save having to upload the same images all the time. (For us anyway).
    2. Add a button to lock/unlock a quiz from the quiz page.
    3. Ability to have start and end dates for each quiz (within the moderator options) or to be able to specify how many days the quiz should remain open before it gets locked.

    Additions:

    1. When playing in study mode, have the ability to add a graded mark % to the quiz that would signify whether the person taking the exam had pass of failed. You would then show a fail or pass mark to the person taking the Study Mode quiz/Exam.

    Main Index Page

    For the Main index page, can we move away from the generic Category/Quiz listing that seems to plague a lot of modules these days? It doesn't invite please in to play Quizzes and I have been told from a few of my members that it puts them off.

    Personally I would prefer it if we could have a Featured Quiz Block with the ability to put a list of other quizzes underneath it.

    Also, another feature that is missing which I would have on the index page, is a leadership block showing the total scores and ranking of the members that have taken part in the quizzes. My members actually like the challenge of getting to the top and it encourages them to take part more.

    Other Changes

    1. The ability for each member to display a list of quizzes that they have taken part it,
    2. Page that lists all available Quizzes in order of Date/Popularity/Score,
    3. Ability to list quiz by how popular they are or quizzes with the highest scores,
    4. A block that will display the profile of the member with the highest Quiz ranking (Sort of Kind of the hill thing),

    Thanks.

    For those who can manage questions & answers, yes. For regular players, no. What sense it would make to show the answers before people play?

    Not before the quiz is taken, there would be no point to that! :lol:

    There was a Quiz for version 3.4 that displayed the answers after the contestant had played the quiz.

    Not sure I follow. Itdisplays answers chosen and the right ones in the last step: results.

    My members have asked if the answers can be displayed permanently on a page and not just on the last step (Results Page).

    @Adriano Faria

    Thanks for the app, cheers.

    I have one question that could possibly turn into a request regarding your answer :)

    After a member completes a quiz, is there a page in which they can view the correct answers afterwards? At the moment they can only few the correct answer directly after they complete the quiz.

    Feature Requests For This App:

    1. Member Rewards: I would like the ability to tie a specific member reward to a specific goal (Not goals as in global). That way we can tailor the reward for a specific goal in mind. At the moment this is all global.
    2. Amount Range: Can you make it so we can just specify an amount rather than a range? Ie If I only want this reward for a £25 donation. (Yes I know I can put £25 in both text boxes.
