Hello everybody.

Thanks so much!

Put it at the end of the file... before the LAST }

 Hello

 Thank you. The package was updated.

First of all I want to thank you for creating this modification and you are very gracious for giving it to us for free.  I am wondering how difficult it would be for me to add the block to video and sounds modules as well?  Is it along the lines of how it was added to the photo module?

Again, thank you for creating this mod.

 Hello

You are welcome. :)

Yes, you should be able to do the same modifications in corresponding files in Sounds and Videos modules. Let me know if you have some problems doing this.

 I'd actually prefer a how-to-do-it instead of me trying to kill my site with some missing ). :) Well, I'm not being too demanding for a free mod, am I? :)))

 Hello

OK. I'll update the mod and add support for Sounds and Videos. I think I'll have free time to do it during a couple of days.

 That would be most welcome. :)

Hello everybody.

Cross Member Blocks version 1.1 is available to download.

Blocks for Sounds and Videos modules are available now.

Thank you so much.  I was about to sit down and attempt this on my own.

 Hello

You are welcome! I hope it will help to save your time. :)

It works almost perfectly. :)

However, I'm using the EVOWall and when someone comments on or rates a video or sound of the member A (who blocked member B), then the stuff is still visible and playable on this wall (by member B), though following the link to the vids section of course works like it should with your mod. :)

The question is, should I pester ilbellodelweb because of this or is this forum the right place to expect nirvana? :))

 Hello

It's the way of how the Wall mod is working. Looks like it doesn't track cross member blocks as the other default Dolphin's modules. We don't provide customization service for 3d party modules. So, you need to contact with Wall's vendor and ask him about the customization.

 Yes, I did. :) Hopefully it will work out, since there are few other modules integrated into EVO already...

 Hello

 Good luck!!!

The BxBlogsModule.php has changed in 7.1.  I am not quite sure where the changes need to go.

 Hello

I'll update the mod and notify you here. Please wait.

Hello everybody.
The mod was updated. It's available for Dolphin 7.1 now.

Hi Anton,

I have a question: currently only blogs, photos, videos and sounds is supported by the manual. can this also be used to block access to a members files?

Thanks for the mod!

 Hello

Files module is not supported now. I'll update the module shortly.

You are welcome! :)

Hello everybody.
Cross Member Blocks version 1.3 is available to download.
Blocks for Files module is available now.

Wow thats fast, many thanks.

Does this also work in 7.0.9? The manual only shows changes for 7.1

I love this mod!

 Hello

You are welcome. :)

We added the instructions for Dolphin 7.0 too. They are almost similar to Dolphin 7.1.

Is there no need to add the code also to the beginning of

function actionAlbumsViewMy()

of 7.0.9 ?

Before you updated the zip I added the code mentioned for function actionAlbums() in your 7.1 instructions to this by myself. Is this ok or not needed?

 Hello

You don't need to modify actionAlbumsViewMy function.

Hi Anton!

I have just installed the Cross Member Blocks on my Dolphin 7.0.6.

I get the following error message in blogs:

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/regnfrak/public_html/modules/boonex/blogs/classes/BxBlogsModule.php:5759) in /home/regnfrak/public_html/inc/design.inc.php on line 133

What did I do wrong?

 Hello

Looks like your text editor or FTP client added some unnecessary characters or a new line in the end of /home/regnfrak/public_html/modules/boonex/blogs/classes/BxBlogsModule.php file. Check it please and if it won't help contact me via PM. I'll try to help you.

Currently Blogs Premium is not supported by the manual. Can this also be used to block access to Blogs Premium?

Hello

Blogs Premium is a custom module therefore it wasn't added in this mod. If it's critical for you contact me via PM and I would be able to do the mod especially for you.

How to be a way for the members to unblock a member they have previously blocked.

Thank you

Hello 

It's a default Dolphin's functionality. User can be unblocked (removed from block list) via My account -> Connections -> Blocked tab. 

Blocked members photos still show on the Photos home page in 7.1.3. This is in the covers and the "latest/top" public photos list. Is there a way to add the block in there as well? If you click the picture it blocks but I'd rather not have them see the picture to click in the first place.

Thanks

Hello 

Unfortunately, filtering from browsing lists is not included in this mod by default. This mod uses a PHP function to check whether a viewer is blocked by content owner or not. Therefore it can be easily used on content view pages but it's bad to use it in browsing lists, because you'll need to check each photo in the list separately which may slow down page loading. Also it affects the correct work of paginate.

I installed this mod exactly as the instructions said to, but I"m using 7.3.3. It looks as if nothing has changed from the standard block feature. My dummy account can still see all of the blogs, photos, etc. from the account that blocked the dummy account. The dummy account can't view the profile or send messages of the blocker. I'm wondering is something has changed from 7.1 to 7.3 that has caused this mod to no longer work. I do find that hard to believe since it's really just instructions on what php to replace or add and not an actual mod. 

Anyone know how I can fix this? I need blocking to block everything.

Thanks

Hello

This mod allows to block only Photo, Sound, Video, etc view pages. However it cannot filter blocker's content from the browsing lists. In another words, blocked member will see blocker content in the browsing lists but cannot view it.
