What Does This Hack Do?hr
This is an update to my 3.7.x version of this hack.

A very simple hack to add a quick email address checker to the Admin Control Panel Home page, it will find members via their email address rather than their username. This will only be displayed to Administrators with Can Administer Users permissions.

This idea of this hack came from Keyser S?ze's v3.5.x hack (see here, and it being Re-useable Code enables me to release this hack), that involves a file edit to a core vbulletin file (which would obviously have to be re-applied every time there is update to vBulletin).

The differences between my hack and Keyser S?ze's are that there are no file edits, it is controlled by Admin permissions and it is located in a slightly different location (as putting it in the same location as Keyser S?ze's would require file edits, there are no hooks in that location).


vBulletin Version Compatibilityhr
This hack can be used with vBulletin versions 3.6.0 - 3.8.7.

For the v4.0.x version of this hack - check here.

Great thanks! :)

I guess this can't be put under the username search without some manual edits?

Hi Mosh,

You have no intentions of doing a version of this mod that would put the quick email finder box in a Global Moderator's ModCP?

Thanks for all your useful mods,

Any way to get this to work for all members? Like someone joins our site, can check to see if any of their friends are members by searching via email. If not found, it says not found, if found, it shows the profile of the user with that email so you can add them as a friend. (like facebook)

That would be a completely different hack ..... may look into it. No promises, and no ETA though.

Hi all,

It is with regret that after over 4 years (and thousands of hours) spent providing free support for my free hacks released here, as of today I will no longer be able to provide support for free.

This is due to being unemployed for a while, being strapped for cash and unable to rely on the virtually non-existent donations from here to help to pay the bills or put food on the table for my family. I am now providing all support for my free hacks released here over at Wolfshead Solutions (http://www.wolfshead-solutions.com) via an annual support subscription (for a small fee).

It does not mean I will be no longer release free hacks, I will, but I will just no longer be supporting them for free.

My free hacks have and always will remain free to download and use. And so will updates/bug fixes.

I will be releasing more free hacks, but if you require any support at all for those free hacks, you will need to purchase an annual support subscription over at Wolfshead Solutions to receive support.

I am really sorry I have to do this, but revenue generated by my programming gigs are now my only source of income, and I can no longer afford the luxury of providing free support here, when that time can be spent creating new commercial products, doing paid work requests or providing paid support to pay the bills.

Thank you for the understanding.

Regards,

Mosh.
