i get this error ...

Invalid SQL: SELECT * FROM user WHERE user.userid=
mysql error: You have an error in your SQL syntax near '' at line 1

mysql error number: 1064

Anyone know whats wrong ? :stupid:

thanks

I'm guessing your going to pm.php directly cyrus, its not meant to be used in that way, your meant to go find the user using the find user part of the admin panel and then click the link within there to view the users pm's

though to link directly pm.php?userid=USERIDHERE would work

hope this helps

does this hack also works with 2.2.2 ?

yes it works with all of the 2.2 series and it should work with the 2.0 series as well.

Seems there would be some privacy issues with this hack. Why would anyone want to read private messages between others? Just nosy maybe? Private messages are not private messages if you use this hack. I hope those that are using this are including it in their privacy agreement. It's useless to me.. Sorry!

maybe you should read the whole thread

I don't agree with PPN that DarkReaper was "forcing his views on anyone." (I hate that term...it's just a bad way to say "disagreeing") No, this hack is not immoral. But I DO think it would be very, very sneaky to NOT let your members know about this in one way or another. When people hear the term PRIVATE messages, they're going to take that to mean, indeed, private. I do not have this hack installed, but I believe most of my members know that I can view them if I really want to. So, I just tell them that I have no intention of invading their PM Inbox, but that if they want to be completely sure, just use email.

Yeah I mean, this hack doesn't give you any ability you DON't already have. It just puts it in the VBAdmin. I haven't even reinstalled this hack after I've upgraded.

Well, still...it makes it much easier. The access you have to the PMs without it is unavoidable. Making it easy and installing a feature that is MEANT to help you with it is not unavoidable...so I think that anyone who installs this hack would be wrong not to let their members know, in some way, that their PMs are not 100% private. Frankly, that should probably be something all boards mention, but especially those with this hack.

I dont want to upset anyone or make anyone mad but it's the word private that is at stake for me.. When I tell my users private or call something private then it should be private without any invasion on my part.. Yes, you can view them thru your database, but admin with any morality would not do this. PM's should be called P/AM's for for Private/Admin messages with this hack installed.. Just an opinion:)
