View Full Version : Admins can view recent PM's

This hack is a modification and based on PPN's hack on allowing an admin to read PM's for a specific user. While, that's nice it doesn't always give you the whole picture of what's going on with your users. I'm not going to debate whether this is an invasion of the user's privacy or not. To each his own.

This hack has been tested on vB 2.2.4 and is working. The purpose is to allow the admins access to read all users' most recent private messages. This may be for checking on mass messages or abuse via pm or to see what's going on with your forums between your users.

I am far from a PHP/MySQL expert, but this gets the job done. NO SUPPORT is offered by me. Thanks to PPN for the original hack.

Interesting hack. Installed, but will not use as a matter of privacy for my members. But it is there if the need arises.

Em Exo thats what my hack does which his based on ;)

The only difference is this hack simply selects the last 100 pm's on your board mine lets you read each users pms.

Will this work on 2.3.5? I had it on my old Vbull and then uploaded onto my new version after the upgrade but it does not seem to want to work. I don't get any errors but then again I can't view the pms either. The option doesn't even show in the cp panel? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
