Add forum member tagging functionality
Task brief:
On an xmb forum (php/mysql) where member name(s) are tagged with a preceding @ in a post message, the member(s) receive a private message informing them that they have been mentioned in a post, with a link to the post. This is similar to what occurs on Facebook.
mybb forum already has this as a plugin. The relevant file from mybb ([login to view URL]) is attached and might be used as an example of how it could be done for xmb.
Detailed Requirements:
Require a simple forum member tagging version that does 3 functions (4th is optional):
[login to view URL]
- default tagging on for each member, but allow individual members to set tagging to off, so they do not get a notification and the post message does not hyperlink to their profile, unless the tag was done by a moderator or admin
[login to view URL] (attached)
- allow 'tagging' of members names in forum posts (new thread and post reply) with a preceding @, which will then send a u2u to the tagged members, including a link to the thread post (pid).
- allow deleting/adding of tags from/to the posts table where a post is edited and members name(s) are changed from the original post and send notification of post (tag) where a new member is tagged to an edited post.
[login to view URL] (attached)
- allow merging of tags where a topic is merged with another topic (tid's merged).
[login to view URL] (optional)
- the member name(s) that have been successfully tagged will be shown on the post with a hyperlink back to their profile (or perhaps just show @membername to indicate tagged).
Suggestions, improvements welcome.
