The coolest hack EVER

[filburt1]

If an admin sticks a thread, then only another admin can unstick it. Or if a smod sticks a thread, then only an admin or another smod can unstick it. If a mod sticks a thread then any other mod of that forum, smod, or admin can unstick it.

Get it?

its not that cool but it would be ok

[filburt1]

Well it's too hard for Chen anyway so I might as well forget it...

i think its possible and not as hard as you mean, but you have to create an extra dbfield just to remember who has stuk the thread, and i don't think it's worth to do...

just say your people, not to unstuck thread stucked by others ;)

[filburt1]

My supermods can be a bit confrontational ;)

[Xenon]

you're the admin, so you're the chief :)

but if you need it, i'll try to code it :)

[Chris M]

Yes please...

This would be good!

ok, add a ne field to your thread table called acclevel, should be a small integer default 0

then edit postings.php:
section stick/unstick threads:

find

if (!ismoderator($threadinfo[forumid],"canmanagethreads")) {
show_nopermission();
}


below add:

if($threadinfo[acclevel]==2 && $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]!=6) {
show_nopermission();
}
if($threadinfo[acclevel]==1 && ($bbuserinfo[usergroupid]!=6 && $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]!=5)) {
show_nopermission();
}

switch($bbuserinfo[usergroupid]) {
case 5: $acclevel=1;
break;
case 6: $acclevel=2;
break;
default: $acclevel=0;

}


then replace

$DB_site->query("UPDATE thread SET sticky=$threadinfo[sticky],notes='".addslashes($threadinfo[notes])."' WHERE threadid='$threadid'");

with
[php]
$DB_site->query("UPDATE thread SET acclevel=$acclevel,sticky=$threadinfo[sticky],notes='".addslashes($threadinfo[notes])."' WHERE threadid='$threadid'");
