I really like this mod and can see where it could be useful for us.

  • Feature request - possible to get a notification or tie into dbt notifications of a private test in post
  • Would it be possible to change how the private text is displayed? Currently it looks exactly like a "mention" and I can see where the user would either miss the private text and think that their name is just being mentioned.
  • I tried to find the phrase to change the text for the username submission. As it is our member would be confused with the wording as it stats "Please enter the option for your [PM] tag". I think it should read "Please enter the username for your private text" or "Please enter the username for your [PM] tag". private.png

I'll take a look into these Charlie. Thanks for posting the ideas and glad you like it.

This is already possible to do... it's a template that we use dbtech_pmtags_pmtag. If you adjust that to display what you want, and you can use the additional.css template to add in any CSS styles. I'm intrigued to know how you might want to set it off differently. We might be able to use several different template designs so the devs or users can pick which display they want. Let me know your ideas and I'll see what we can include. :)

This is perfect. I will fool around with this a bit. It was late last night when I was testing it and was getting tired so I wasn't quite sure how I thought it should look.
 
I have made some very simple edits to let our members know the text is private. I added a new image and some simple css background attributes.

Lock image;

private text.png

Face image;

Additional.css edit (very simple and can be adjusted for any style);
Code:
/* ---------------------------Private Text------------------------------- */
.private-text {
background-color: yellow;
}

If anyone would like these images I made, they are attached here;

Not in 2.0.0, but we'll look at it again for a future update. We wanted to make sure that we got this new method of storing the data out as soon as we could, so usergroup permissions were put on hold for it.

But we will revisit it. :)
 
Thanks Mokonzi. I think the two most important ones are;
- Would it be possible to change how the private text is displayed? Currently it looks exactly like a "mention" and I can see where the user would either miss the private text and think that their name is just being mentioned.

- I tried to find the phrase to change the text for the username submission. As it is our member would be confused with the wording as it stats "Please enter the option for your [PM] tag". I think it should read "Please enter the username for your private text" or "Please enter the username for your [PM] tag".

As noted, it can be very easily confused with user tagging and the individual receiving the private text would forget it is private and respond accordingly. Also confusing is the phrase for entering the username.
 
Not sure what we can do about the Phrase for entering the username, but will look at it. Will see what we can do. If you have any specific suggestions on changing the design of the template, I'll look at seeing how we can implement it. :)
