    Quoted Notification

    I have problem already suggested this but not 100% sure.

    Regardless, it would be great to add a notification alert when someone quotes your post or mentioned you in the post. This is a plugin that I am sure is available for vBulletin (you are using vBulletin afaik). Its simple and easy modification and would only benefit the forum.

    Yes you can subscribe to a thread, that is besides the point since that is also available on many other forums/forum platforms but that does not stop them from adding the quote like notification.

    It's something that we want to include. At the point we switched to vBulletin, there was no way to do this; since then there have been a few plugins released that we can look into.

    We've got several other projects going on right now, so I have no ETA.

    Thank you for replying. Isn't there some sort of BBCode for vBulletin? I use phpBB3 for all my boards so I am unfamiliar with vBulletin (due to its price heh).

    But its fine, its not really an important feature but as I have said, it would be nice to have in near future

    Once again, thanks for replying

    We have bbcode in the software, but bbcode isn't going to let someone know that you've responded to them. There needs to be a function that scans the post and tells a user his username/userid has been matched and then send some sort of notification. As sunshine said there are addons out there and I'm sure they'll add them as soon as they can.
    I fix things, sometimes, when they let me out of my cage.

    Oh yeah I know, on my phpBB3 forum we have ajax plugin which scans who is quoted and sends them a PM. Its not ideal apparently since the script can bug out and its also exploitable. Will need to find something better, but anyway.

    Also I kinda messed up, was thinking Spoiler tag hence why I mentioned adding a spoiler bbcode, urrgh feel awkward. Been so tired past few days, I can barely think right now >.< I guess I should not be up till 2AM ^^

    Cheers for replies tho.

    A spoiler bbcode also wouldn't be that hard, depends if the TPTB decide it is something worth adding and maintaining.
