[bd] Tag Me for XenForo 1.3 3.2.0

[The Dark Wizard]

What happens if we tag someone in a forum they can't see. . .say admins are discussing something about a member. Will they get an alert?

Yes. No permission check is performed.

 

[xfrocks]

Yes. No permission check is performed.

As a side note, the alert is sent but the user won't be able to view it. So the alert counter will be increased but there's no alert to see.

Just a quick question before I install.

As admin, could I type @everyone or @everybody (or something else configurable for admin only) to send a forum-wide alert out? If not... can you add it please

That would be great for site announcements and anything else you would like as many members to see as possible.

Not to hijack his thread, but I thought xfrocks had said that this wouldn't be added. Darkimmortal has something you may want though.

Obviously changed his mind, nice.

So many people asked for this that I'll add this feature in the next version. Still thinking of way to implement it without affecting performance.

Or possibly tags for specific user groups? @Developers @Supporters etc.

edit: lovely work on the addon btw.

It's in the making. And thank you.

Please make Tagging work with this add-on:

Thanks.

Thanks.

Third party add-on will not get integrated into this add-on. You may want to ask Onimua to integrate his add-on with [bd] Tag Me (it's not too hard). Or you can contact me via Conversation for a custom work.

xfrocks updated [bd] Tag Me with a new update entry:

@user_group is supported, finally!

• Added support for user group tagging (both primary and secondary groups, admin can selectively choose which groups are available for tagging)
• Added sending alerts in batches mode, enabled by default

Read the rest of this update entry...

Make sure to download the latest version! User group tagging has been added

Because of the dangerous potential of letting people tag a whole user group at once, the max tags option has been deleted. You will now have to configure the limit in user group permission. This is done to have different max limit for different user groups.

I applied the update and I had to immediately disable [bd] Tag Me.
It was prohibiting updating statuses, replying to posts, creating new topics, etc,
with an error saying "You do not have permission to tag these users",
even though no users were specified in any of the attempts.

I'm using Social Status Updater, and XenPorta. No other modifications.

This is a bug and it has been fixed in 1.6.2. Please download the new version and upgrade your site. Sorry for the problem The permission was enforced a little too much.

How do you enable tagging for usergroups? I've installed the latest version and set the permissions but it doesn't seem to work. I tried @administrative @supporters @moderating @developers (some of my usergroups) etc.

You have to go to the user group (Administrative for example) and check the box "Is Taggable".

This is getting complicated. Probably I will have to write an instruction document.

Ah yes, got it working now, thanks. The only part of XenForo I don't like is the permissions system. I still find it confusing and annoying.

Sorry. Moving the max limit to permission system is necessary to support different limit for different user groups
