Handling notifications from other mods creating threads

[dbigras]

Hi guys,

8WayRun Media Library is able to create threads when adding a new media to the library.

But it bypasses the normal Thread creation for some reason and VBShout is not notified that a thread was created. I think it would be quick to fix.

Here's what Jaxel is asking:

Threads are created using the following check skips:

$threadman->set_info('skip_moderator_email', true);
$threadman->set_info('skip_floodcheck', true);
$threadman->set_info('skip_charcount', true);
$threadman->set_info('skip_title_error', true);

Those mods are hooked into one of these checks. Find out which check, and I will look into it.

In this thread on Vbulletin.org: http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showpost.php?p=2040565&postcount=872

Can you help out? It would be much appreciated.

I don't know about the others, but vBShout is on the hook location newpost_complete which would mean it would unfortunately not support threads created in such a way.

I'll look into changing it in the future, as I've already figured out how to for the @user tagging mod

I'm willing to place a small wager the other mods are hooked in a similar way.

Thanks for the info. But I didn't understand everything you wrote.

Is it something that Media Library needs to adjust how they create threads or VBShout notification system?

vBShout It'll be fixed for the next version

Wow! Amazing.

I have LOTS of ideas, you think we could work together? You guys seems to be great and passionate about developing. Or maybe your plate is too full?

But, when their product creates a thread, it doesn't notify VBShout and other mods. Not just VBShout. I think they need to fix something too.
