Conversation Essentials [Paid] 1.14.1

Beat me. I literally just uploaded the new one with it fixed. That file literally hasn't been updated in 3-4 months. I have no idea how it possibly got corrupted. I think I'm done packaging XenForo add-ons from my mac.

Hmm, still not working for me.

 

[Daniel Hood]

Going to chalk that one up to it being before I've had my first cup of coffee. Try again.

Ah... nah... don't blame the Mac. Invest in paid Zipping software...

Is it updated now? Can I download it again?

Yes it is working correctly.

Do I need to install the post ratings XML again? Has that been updated? I have not been running that XML file alongside any updates - I just run the main XML file. Is this not correct?

Just use the main xml like you have been. The post ratings one has not been modified and it's unlikely it will be in the future.

Question on new permission set:

"bypass all read date privacy" is pretty self-explanatory

What's the difference between "non-admin" and "non-staff"?

Is "admin" tied to the admin group, and "staff" tied to anyone with the staff box checked?

So is selecting the "all" privacy the same as setting both "admin" and "staff"? Or are these all 3 mutually exclusive groups/permissions?

Admin is administrators listed in the administrator page of the admin panel (the is_admin flag on their account is set).

Staff is moderators and admins.

So, non-admin: Moderators & those manually flagged as staff
Non-staff: Normal users

I am sorry if this has been asked before, can Admin create Conversation Prefixes and allow users to use only these set of Prefixes and disallow them from creating their own prefix? This way all members will see the same prefix and should have ability to change the prefix for conversation which changes it for both parties.

 

[Daniel Hood]

No, each user has their own set of prefixes that they define. When they add it to a conversation, only they see it.

 

[Zimply]

Thanks for such a quick response, appreciate it!

@Daniel Hood.

I'm not too worried about whether it makes it in there or not, but it'd be nice to have an option for an alert when a conversation is read, sort of a 'read receipt' equivalent. I just had the thought as I was checking multiple conversations to see if they've been read yet, and figure it'd probably be simple since you already have the last read date in there.

@Daniel Hood.

does this add-on comes "conversion monitor" integrated in to this or do I need to buy "conversation monitor" again?

 

[Daniel Hood]

Conversation Monitor is an entirely separate add-on.

 

[Freelancer]

@Daniel Hood : Bug/Feature Suggestion: "Starred" Conversations can be viewed as a separate list, if you click on the "star" icon. At this time it leads you to an extra page where the "Conversation Wrapper" is lost. Desired behavior: keep the Conversation Wrapper (if opted) around starred convo list view and just display the starred conversations only.

Just a reminder for the "todo list"

Daniel Hood updated Conversation Essentials with a new update entry:

1.11.2

What's New:

• Fixed the usage meter to work when both the conversation limit and message limits are set.
  • Previously it displayed the conversation limit even if the message limit was closer to being reached (or already reached).
• Added an option to display a "Select All" link above the conversation list. When clicked, all of the inline moderation checkboxes are selected.

Did the ability to 'kick' from conversation become a separate permission that I can't find?
I'm trying to hover over an avatar but don't see the kick option

 

[Daniel Hood]

No, it's still it's own permission. Is it a theme conflict? Try the default theme and see if the kick button appears. Otherwise I'll need you to use the analyze permisisons functionality.
