mods cant see the modcp link at the bottom nav

[salata]

at the bottom of the forum in the nav bar where it says contact us -Referral Statistics-sitename- etc...

my mods cant see the modcp link, but my supermods can see them, how can i make it viewable to them?

I thought you could only see the Mod CP link if you were in a forum/thread that you mod... Maybe I'm wrong though...

[salata]

wouldnt you be able to see it on the index page?

If you actually get a mod to go to the mod cp you will find he can't login anyway!

why did i do wrong? i asked one of my mods if they had access and you were right. how would i fix this?

jsut stick all mods and super mods in super mods group then rename it to mods
and abandon the mdos group :)

You shouldn't need to do any template changes, revert the change and look for this in global.php


$show['admincplink'] = iif($permissions['adminpermissions'] & $vbulletin->bf_ugp_adminpermissions['cancontrolpanel'], true, false);
// This generates an extra query for non-admins/supermods on many pages so we have chosen to only display it to supermods & admins
// $show['modcplink'] = iif(can_moderate(), true, false);
$show['modcplink'] = iif ($permissions['adminpermissions'] & $vbulletin->bf_ugp_adminpermissions['cancontrolpanel'] OR $permissions['adminpermissions'] & $vbulletin->bf_ugp_adminpermissions['ismoderator'], true, false);

Uncomment the bold line, and comment out the line below it.

This looks like it would work, but I cannot get it to work. Best of luck to you guys though.
