Vanilla System Bot

[Deleted User]

Is the User Announce permission (Garden.User.Announce)?

Shadowdare

The permission is Vanilla.Discussions.Announce.

I'm working at it. It worked in the beginning without all this code, but it's magically sealed what I called it's "Window for Work". I will report back to you guys when and / or if I get the code magically working again

My code isn't working. Is this code right?

function BotAnnounce($Bot) {
if ($Bot->SimpleMatch('Announce')) { 
$AnnounceNow = public function Announce($DiscussionID = '', $Target = '') {
      $Discussion = $this->DiscussionModel->GetID($DiscussionID);
      if (!$Discussion)
         throw NotFoundException('Discussion');
      $this->Permission('Vanilla.Discussions.Announce', TRUE, 'Category', $Discussion->PermissionCategoryID);

      if ($this->Form->IsPostBack()) {
         // Save the property.
         $CacheKeys = array('Announcements', 'Announcements_'.GetValue('CategoryID', $Discussion));
         $this->DiscussionModel->SQL->Cache($CacheKeys);
         $this->DiscussionModel->SetProperty($DiscussionID, 'Announce', (int)$this->Form->GetFormValue('Announce', 0));

Be sure to give some props to @Tim, who is wholly responsible for creating & releasing this. I saw the email for the new repo and my eyes went wide with excitement when I realized it was public.

it would be good if this thread were split at your comment. and put into a category vanilla 2.1 as well.
to avoid waking up the pillow fort playmates, who thankfully were silent for a few months now.

thx, for sharing Tim and Lincoln, I love these phrases in minion.

"You cannot negotiate with me. I do not share your pity, remorse, or fear, @\"{User.Name}\"."

"I'm not crazy. I'm just not user friendly.",

and these constants and comments

 const FORCE_LOW = 'low'; // Warning, no points
const FORCE_MEDIUM = 'medium'; // Warning, 2 points
const FORCE_HIGH = 'high'; // Warning, 3 points
const FORCE_LETHAL = 'lethal'; // Ban

This plugin is worth its weight in comedy gold, just reading the code.

P.S.

"Keep walking, breeder",

"Information propagation is slow. Many voices speak at once. We do not understand how you function without consensus, @\"{User.Name}\".",

Fair point. I've fixed that with a few clicks. I rather like the comment continuity so I'd like to leave it together.

I too am jumping for joy.

vrijvlinder

Linc

Let's stay on topic, please.

vrijvlinder

I am showing the joy that Minion brings !! One of the most brilliant and wanted plugins out there after the advanced editor in my opinion ... This is very generous to give us this gift... I sense this year is the givie year or there is an even bigger surprise following that.... I am very happy and looking forward to more neat gifts

By the way , what will happen to Minions little brother Schwaip bot ?

By the way , what will happen to Minions little brother Schwaip bot ?

they will always be brothers.

I may convert ShwaipBot over to Minion; despite having access to Minion all this time I still haven't given it a hard look so I haven't thought much about it.
