Create a "trash forum" for deleted theme

[TheLord]

sorry for my google english
This modification will make so that all deleted threads will fall into a special section. ie basket


create new forum, like "Trash"

open: xen\library\XenForo\Model\InlineMod\Thread.php

find:

$dw->setExtraData(XenForo_DataWriter_Discussion::DATA_DELETE_REASON,$options['reason']);
$dw->set('discussion_state', 'deleted');
$dw->save();

replace for:

$dw->setExtraData(XenForo_DataWriter_Discussion::DATA_DELETE_REASON, $options['reason']);
$dw->set('discussion_state', 'deleted');
$dw->set('node_id', '9999');
$dw->save();

open: xen\library\XenForo\Model\Thread.php

find:

$dw->setExtraData(XenForo_DataWriter_Discussion::DATA_DELETE_REASON,$options['reason']);
$dw->set('discussion_state', 'deleted');
$dw->save();

replace for:

$dw->setExtraData(XenForo_DataWriter_Discussion::DATA_DELETE_REASON, $options['reason']);
$dw->set('discussion_state', 'deleted');
$dw->set('node_id', '9999');
$dw->save();

9999 - change it for you "Trash" forum id

So they dont get deleted, they just get moved there? I already have a trash forum, I would just stick to the manual way of moving threads. Not really a addon, more of a template modification. Should be moved. Any demo?

 

[TheLord]

if you delete theme - he are deleted and moved to X forum.

You could extend the thread datawriter instead of editing the file.

If you edit the file, you have to make this on every xenforo upgrade, if you use the listener system, you don't need to touch any file

 

[Edrondol]

Lord, these are not addon releases. They are Template modifications. Wrong board, dude.

 

[Paul B]

Moved to Template Modifications (again).

 

[TheLord]

listener system..., how to make her?

 

[TheLord]

yeah. sorry wrong file
xen\library\XenForo\Model\InlineMod\Thread.php

 

[Vincent]

Explain me, do SOFT or HARD deleted threads go to that forum?

 

[Paul B]

Hard deleted threads are permanently removed from the database.

Actually, it looks more like Code modification, not really a template one.

It also bears a small potential danger because for that you need to replace delete() method with your own completely. If Kier will add or change something vital there, forum will malfunction after corresponding upgrade.

Exactly. This isn't a "template mod", this has nothing to do with templates, it's a code modification.

Doesn't seem to work with beta 4, for whatever reason. Changed the node, still doesn't work.

 

[Paul B]

There isn't a code modification forum though and it's not an add-on so this is the only forum where threads of this nature can currently be placed.

Can you take some of your precious time for me and create an addon for this? With 2 options "Enable or Disable" and "What forum"?
Because I'm scared that when I overwrite my xenForo files with an update, this file will also be overwritten and than it'll be a mess because they're not in the trash forum but in the regular forum.

We thought that we would get much more donations (to be honest, it was much better on vb.org) for the released add-ons (10 released add-ons and only 2 donations!), so we're not sure if we'll spend more of the precious time for releasing & supporting free add-ons.It's takes too much time.
Sorry.

Okay

What did you expect? XF is just barely in their RC1 phase of version 1.
As time goes along, more people will purchase XF & move away from the outdated vBulletin or other competitors.
If you cease creating add-ons then you are doing yourself a diservice as well as the XF modding community.

It is also possible that not many people found your add-ons worthy of donation.
It is also possible that there may be some, who would donate but you don't accept other payment options such as google checkout.
Paypal is not as popular as it once was due to their illegal activities and no way to enforce them to uphold to banking laws.

i like the recycling bin for deleted threads. sometimes I take them down until I have time to work on them & put them back. with the current delete system I feel like threads could get lost. I was hoping there was a mod tool or admin cp section that you could use to list all the soft deleted threads but I'm not seeing anything.

thanks for this. will be looking at it more
