Notify user about his moved thread

Hello!

Here's another one I made for my community which I want to share with you. :o

We have to deal with many users who don't have experience with vBulletin or bulletin boards in general so they often get confused when we move a thread to a better location.

This plugin notifies the user with a PM when we moved one of his threads. This plugin is rather simple but can be extended with ease. However, I won't do it because I don't need it ;)

Known limitations:
This one doesn't affect the inline moderation. I couldn't find a hook for it so I decided to leave that to an expert ;)


Installation:
Just upload the product-file. It will install the plugin and the 2 new phrases for you.
Now you have to edit the freshly installed plugin. It's called Plugin - Notify user about thread move.

Edit those two lines according to your information.

$pmdm->set('fromuserid', X); // replace X with your USERID
$pmdm->set('fromusername', 'Y'); // replace Y with your USERNAME

Both information must be correct, they tell the user who sent this PM.

In my case, I would have to use:

$pmdm->set('fromuserid', 1); // 1 is my ID
$pmdm->set('fromusername', 'MrNase'); // MrNase is my nickname

which sends a message from the user 'MrNase' whose ID is '2' :)

Save the plugin and you are done :)


Have fun with it and feel free to release additions to this product! :)

[nexialys]

(ok, this was good though!)

[Snake]

All installed.

[TheFocusElf]

I like this one better than the other one.

-installed to avoid the flu-

[ekopapers]

clicks install I too like this one better thanks :)

[MrNase]

Thanks guys!

Can you confirm it's working for you? I've tested it 20 times but I have so much bad luck that everytime something goes wrong :D

[TheFocusElf]

I will confirm in a few hours -- downloaded to zip-disk at work. I based my judgement on the screenshots between the 2 mods. I didn't see the other mod -- but I like this one a lot. I will be happy to confirm or cry for you :>

[COBRAws]

The other one is better IMHO, the PM u receive shows you with links the destination forum and the thread moved.

BTW, does this hack check if the user has access to the "moved to" forum? I mean, if you move it to Staff Forums, the user doesnt have access, but still receives de PM? In the other hack, it was planned not to do so in a future update.

cheers

[MrNase]

As this one only shows the title of the forum the thread was moved to I don't see a reason to include the permission thing :)

When a thread was moved to a hidden forum the user HAS to be notified otherwise he'll be wondering where his thread has gone :D

[rb290]

thanks
< installed

[Bulent Tekcan]

Hi

If users PM closed or full,any problem for that reason ?

Thanks

[TheFocusElf]

I was unable to successfully verify this mod.

I installed the product, I used my test account, moved his post, and he received no notification.

[smokering]

thank you clicking install

[joeychgo]

I like the idea. The only detail thats missing is specifying what thread was moved.


I mentioned it at vBulletin Webmaster (http://www.vbwebmaster.com/forums/showthread.php?p=9897#post9897) however.

[Keyser S?ze]

im not complaining here, but 1 hack that does "move/close" notify, would be very nice

why have multiple for something so similar?

[joeychgo]

this should give you the choice of email to send......

a. We moved to more appropriate forum
b. We removed your thread because it wasnt appropriate for our forum. Please refer to the forum rules.

I think it should also list the thread title so the user knows what thread we're talking about

[joeychgo]

After a week I can tell you that the thread MUST be specified.

When one of my mods moves a thread, the pm is sent from me. I dont know every thread that is moved, and I get the question back WHY WAS MY THREAD MOVED and I dont even know what thread it moved.

[joeychgo]

Sorry - I uninstalled this hack. Its a great idea and I appreciate the effort, but its incomplete and causing me more work, and I dont see the author paying attention to this thread. Let me know if you update it.

[MrNase]

Please read my first post:

It's working for me, I don't know why it's isn't working for.

Like COBRAws pointed out, there's another modification that does the same. Feel free to install that one if you don't like this one.

[AraServ]

[VBUsers]

[K D Umbaugh]

can you make it so if some1's thread is deleted..they get a Private message too...

that would be cool, if you can modify to include deleted post.

[K D Umbaugh]

[testebr]

[Pvtiste]

Excellent ! :)

[Pvtiste]

[MediaHound]

Has anyone got this for 3.7?

[sunnycher]

I use 3.6.8 and it works great.

How can I edit it to say WHAT thread I moved of theirs?
I surely don't need tons of PMs asking me what thread I moved LOL

TY!!!

[NetRover]

This is awsome and it would be great to see this updated and in the 3.7 mod forum.

[vithorius]

Also, this does not work for mass moving threads unfortunately. Otherwise a good mod.
