How to check User permissions in user.php

[Zaulael]

Hello,

I'm trying to make a modification in user.php (/admincp/user.php) so that only Super Admins can delete users. Now, forgive me, I'm not very familiar with how to check if the current USER (not the current USERID you're looking it) is a Super Admin, or of a certain userid.

So far, I have:

if ($vbulletin->GPC['userid'] == 5)
{
$quicklinks["user.php?" . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . "do=remove&u=" . $vbulletin->GPC['userid']] = $vbphrase['delete_user'];
}


As you may have guessed, this doesn't work.

Anyone have any suggestions for a beginner vbulletin editor/modder?

Thanks in advance!

So, I know you want to improve security, but can your other admins use plugins? Run SQL queries? Modify Admin permissions? Modify templates, phrases, user titles, etc?

I think what you want is:

if (is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo, 5))

No, but they can approve users and change to necessary user groups. I can tell them till I'm blue in the face not to delete a user but it always happens eventually :)

Thanks kh99, I'll see if that works when I get home.
