[TH] WikiPosts [Deleted]

[The Grand Potentate]

Yes. As in they make the decision (admin or staff or otherwise). Adding to the top of the thread is not something this add-on supports.

Thanks for the clarification.

It's a very simple but powerful addon. Just need a convenient way to select the forums in which Wikiposts can be created. Moderating edits by certain usergroups would also be a bonus.

You have any screenshots of it in action Stuart? I honestly can't get a picture of it in my head and the screenshots apparently aren't doing it justice.

It's only the need for this feature that's stopping me from installing it. Can't go through 400 forums one by one.

Use an sql query? Like ...
update xf_forum set AllowWikiPosts = 1 where node in (1,2,3,7,9,121,242);
... substituting with appropriate field/table

Still got to go through 400 forums to get the IDs.

Yeah, I just go through the ACP node tree and mouse hover-over each title to get the node id.
For 400 nodes, might take you 30-45 mins to do it, but it's an immediate solution for you.

Done

Nice but it would be more useful with edit second post instead of first option.

 

[Stuart Wright]

Done

Have purchased, installed on our sandbox, set up the Wiki nodes and set a thread to have a Wikipost.

Firstly what is the 'Wiki' text to the left of the title? Is this supposed to be a prefix?
And second, where is it supposed to link to? Because the link is

https://xf.avforums.com/sandbox/forums/isf-faq.246/-/wikipost

And this opens a page of what I'm guessing is supposed to be Wiki threads, but which instead lists no threads:

There are no threads to display.

Firstly what is the 'Wiki' text to the left of the title? Is this supposed to be a prefix?

Yep, it uses the prefix prefixPrimary class so if it's not showing up properly that prefix class likely isn't styled (it is a default prefix class in XenForo)

And second, where is it supposed to link to? Because the link is

It is supposed to open a list of WikiPosts in that forum. But it appears to be opening the incorrect forum. It should be linking to:

http://xf.avforums.com/sandbox/forums/home-cinema-buying-building.246/-/wikipost

Could you try temporarily disabling all other add-ons and see if it links to the correct page? This doesn't seem to happen for me. Also, what version of XenForo are you using?

 

[Code Monkey]

This needs an option to make a node Wiki only. That way if you want a whole node to be a wiki forum you don't have to rely on people checking the little box.

Sorry for taking so long to reply.
I have fixed the (overlooked) colour properties of the primary prefix and the prefix now looks great for Wiki posts.
With regard to the second issue, I disabled all the addons except Wiki posts and the problem still exists.
The link under the prefix button on one thread, for example, is
https://sandbox.avforums.com/forums/do-expensive-hdmi-cables-make-a-difference.123/-/wikipost
and it opens the page
https://sandbox.avforums.com/forums/cables-switches.123/wikipost
which says There are no threads to display.

Looking at that it looks like it's linking to the wrong forum, which would indicate $forum is being reset to something else by another add-on, could you try it while temporarily disabling other add-ons?

Could you send me a PM with access to your test board, and a link to an example of this occurring?

Is this still being updated? It needs an option to use an existing prefix instead of adding the default. The default doesn't play nice with other prefix mods like Prefix Forum Listing. It doesn't show up on the listing.

We are of course having to look at XF2 as well, so asking that people add any issues to our github tracker so we can have everything in one place: https://www.themehouse.com/xenforo/issues/

 

[DroidOne]

Are people still happy with this add-on? Is it fully compatible with Xenforo 1.5.13?

I have bought and isntalled it a minute ago.
Now i read:

However, it has a little flaw or undocumented feature. Default installation adds a tab in the lower navigation bar. Via that tab even users without proper user rights can see the headlines of the WikiPosts. Just the headlines, not the actual posts.

But i dont know what is ment.

It's only the need for this feature that's stopping me from installing it. Can't go through 400 forums one by one.

Yes, this addon needs 1. set on for all and exclude nodes OR set for none and add nodes.

It is a really wonderful addon. But it makes problems to another one or maybe two ones. I wait for a feedback of my advisor for problems like this.

And maybe it could be combined with another addon for setting up a moderator just for one thread instead having a group.

Hello Robert, thank you so much for your suggestions in improving this add-on. I will go ahead and add your suggestions to our Github Issue Tracker, please take a look at this link if you'd like to suggest anything else for any of our other add-ons: https://www.themehouse.com/xenforo/issues/

Hello,

I have some questions before purchasing:

1. Is there any kind of edit history to see what changed and who made the edits?
2. Regarding this review, what is this tab the user is talking about?
3. Anyway to disable the Wiki prefix from showing up in the thread list?
4. Finally, are you planning to port this over XenForo 2?

Thank you very much in advance!
