Board Address: http://s4.zetaboards.com/iwgc/index/ Board Software: ZetaBoards Description: There isn't a whole lot of documentation on the Auto Tool system so I hope that someone can help with this. I would like a tool that can automatically make a reply to a post in a certain forum that would make it easy to post a score. I would like for any member to be able to use it and not have it be restricted to a certain member group. Is this possible to do with the Auto Tool System that is currently in place? I would like for the following text to appear as a pre-written message (without the quotes): "Round #? Name: Score (OFFICIAL) playing in ? mode. Name: Score (OFFICIAL or FUN) playing in ? mode. OPTIONAL- Whatever other good sportsmanship message or game account information." If I need a script to accomplish this, I would like the member to be able to fill in the information requested and then choose the post to reply to, say from a dropdown list. If I could have it so I could add my own links to the individual posts on that list that would be fantastic. I hope I explained this properly. Let me know if you need me to clarify anything. Thanks! |

I only don't get the popup from fast reply, I get it in the other two ways though. Neither one of them post the information, however. |

Ok, I've played with this some more and found that while in the main forum view the tool does not post. That's ok because I dont want it to post from there, so it should not show on that page. There are three other places in the individual post that the autotool shows up, one is next to the topic moderation on the bottom left of the post. When I select the tool from there it posts as follows: "OFFICIAL Round #: 2 AM or TPT/X: AMPlayer 1mePlayer 2you OPTIONAL- Whatever other good sportsmanship message or game account information you would like to add: testing autotool" It also appears in the quick reply box and when you add a reply to a topic under moderation options, but does not function from there. The form should look like this: OFFICIAL Round #: text input area AM or TPT/X: text input area Player 1: text input area Player 2: text input area Whatever other good sportsmanship message or game account information you would like to add (OPTIONAL): text input area The resulting text output should look like this (obviously not in those exact words) with each entry on it's own line: Round 2 AM BettiePage: 60 JoeCool: 58 Great game, wish I could have done better. Oh well I'll get you next time .I think there should be a cancel button on the form, don't you agree? Is it possible to remove the tool from showing in other places and keep it to the spot next to the mod options at the bottom left corner of the post? Is there a character limit on the optional score accounting? If so, there should not be and there doesn't seem to be a way to make line breaks when writing in the text box on the form. I test posted a rather long score accounting and it stretched the page waaaaaaaay right. Some of my members can be rather chatty and we like it that way .Thanks so much for you help Q, it is really appreciated. |

Use that to remove the option from the forum page and fast reply, replace # with the ID of the autotool. |

OMG!!! This thing is awesome BUT....you knew there was one My members can't see it only I can. HELP!Ok Quozzo, here is an update on this. Upon further testing and some video assistance for the members that couldn't see it, this is what we found: In IE8 with Windows XP it works. In Opera, Firefox and IE9 with Vista and on a Mac with Firefox it is invisible to the user. I have no idea what is going on. If it has something to do with the autotool itself or what. I was logged in as Admin and as a regular member and could see it and use it just fine. Edited by BettiePage, Jul 16 2011, 11:04 AM.

try this instead, you need to remove the autotool from the ACP as it adds its own button. [edit]

Hey Q, this revision is even better than the last except that it doesn't seem to work in anything other that IE. Is there a fix for that? |

The only problem i can see is that some browsers don't refresh the page when its posts, a quick tap on f5 should suffice. What browsers are having problems? |

Hi Q, it is the strangest thing. It works for me in IE8, but for others it doesn't. He has javascript enabled and he can't even see it. I even posted screenshots of where to find it and they atill can't see it. I am the only one who can. Is there something in the code that prevents someone who is not an Admin from using it? That is the only thing I can think of. All members regardless of their rank or permissions need to be able to use the tool, except probationary, guests and validating. The following member groups need permission to use the tool; Admins, Members, Trustee & Charter Member. Perhaps there needs to be something added to the existing code that allows those groups to see and use the tool??? Edited by BettiePage, Jul 19 2011, 03:11 PM.
