ColdBlooded Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 You can now tag people on this forum when posting thread titles, post contents, blogs, etc. Simply use the @ symbol to do this. The @ symbol has become a generic method for tagging an entity, so we stuck with the @ symbol on this forum also. Example, [MENTION=52003]Dave Macaulay[/MENTION] likes [MENTION=50368]Dabomstew[/MENTION]. This will list inside your profile feed & give you a notification. See my profile http://makewebgames.io/member.php/50433-ColdBlooded -> Mentions, Thread Tags, Quotes are new tabs you will see. :) This feature will make it easy when you need to point and get someone's attention. Another feature we have released an Interaction enhancement. This enables users to Like, Dislike, and Thank peoples content across the website. This will hopefully provide some recognition of peoples efforts when posting around the website. It will also give users an indication of a person on this community. Let's show each another how positive we are :D I would like to thank a friend at dbtech for providing such great extentions for this forum system. If you guys have any further suggestions of effective tools for this website, please say and I will look into implementing it. Cheers. Edit: Forgot to mention that you also get notification if you have been thank'd, liked or Disliked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah you can mention yourself. How the tagging works at the moment is @ runs a query with string followed in 3 segments. Matches exact record and links it, only for Members though. I am working on Ajax functionality at the moment when you symbol @ and start typing, it'll autocomplete likewise results of Users/Members as well as Thread topics. This will be released later if it works out good. For now, if there is any concerns with these new features. Please voice it out on this thread and don't forget to @tag me :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Pretty cool feature [MENTION=50433]ColdBlooded[/MENTION] Might have to improve some of the styling though when I've got some free time ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Script47 Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Wow, this is cool, [MENTION=50433]ColdBlooded[/MENTION] this is awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 (edited) It seems you can't change your choice for like/dislike and thank you. As someone mentioned above the styling is awful, the black bar on threads indicates a header of some sort, to be used once per section, maybe move things around a bit. I would like your post but I can't change the dislike. Oh and [MENTION=50433]ColdBlooded[/MENTION] please give a way to disable notifications of it, personally tagging is annoying as hell, if someone doesn't want to read a thread then that's their choice but to be mentioned and given a notification.... plus what will happen about just spam? For example I can see several members that are probably just going to always dislike a post, which renders the plugins pointless.

I'm gonna fix up the "Post Thanks / Like - 0 Thanks, 0 Likes, 0 Dislikes" section and integrate the system better with posts.

For example I can see several members that are probably just going to always dislike a post, which renders the plugins pointless. If people abuse the appreciating factor (thank, like & dislike) functionality, then that's sad. I'll boot them off the community myself. That's negative, and not appreciative. No bias n00bs are welcome here. Appropriate actions will be take. Good point on disabling notification of this interactive posting. It could get annoying for some people. I will look into providing a disable feature on preference for those who don't want to be notified. I'll get back to @all regarding this. Basically the point of this feed back on peoples content which involves thanking, liking and disliking, please don't take it personally. Make some sense out of it, harden up if needed, ignore if needed, get happy if need, and move on. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As [MENTION=69919]!Angel[/MENTION] said it currently looks pretty ugly and out of place! By default as provided by dbtech, it does the job; but a bit out of it. Styling and placing this up would be another great value adding factor. Also updating the text "Post Thanks / Like - 0 Thanks, 0 Likes, 0 Dislikes" in real time of clicking "dislike" "like" "thank you" would be awesome.

[MENTION=50433]ColdBlooded[/MENTION], you made this quite clear about abusing this new feature, and how you would ban them. Well I guess you should ban The Coder. [ATTACH=CONFIG]1410[/ATTACH] And if that isn't clear for anyone: 10:33 PM - The Coder clicked Dislikes for this post: Inventory > Item Type by Script47 10:33 PM - The Coder clicked Dislikes for this post: Inventory > Item Type by Script47 10:30 PM - The Coder clicked Dislikes for this post: Which one should I pick? by Script47 10:29 PM - The Coder clicked Dislikes for this post: Which one should I pick? by Script47 Navigate To "Post Thanks / Like" I don't see what I said wrong but It seems he has some sort of personal vendetta against me and you said it yourself, its negative and not appreciative. He's been warned more than enough times, but I guess he thinks he can skirt the rules. I mean one of the thread which I made he disliked the post where I was offering free code. Then he disliked a post where i was asking to help. Edited May 2, 2014 by Script47 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
