thanks for the mod but was wondering if u can implement a log feature that will log which moderator has been approving members ebcause as in my case i have few moderators who isnt approving but they are arguing they have approved. so i need the logs to prove them otherwise.
Forward

Very good idea, I like it ;)

I will add an option to the hack to enable moderator logging. Should be released soon :)

Upgrade: v3.8.005 - Wednesday 5th August 2009
-- Updated: Screenshots
-- Changed: user_moderation.php
-- Added: AdminCP Option to enable logging of action applied to each user in the Moderator log
-- Added: 3 new phrases

thanks alot for implementing and for the quick update
could i know where i can check the logs?
Statistics & Logs, cant find it there yet

You were in the right place. See the Statistics & Logs section of the vBulletin Manual.

Note: To access these parts of the Admin Control Panel you may need to edit your config.php please refer to Editing the vBulletin Configuration File for further instructions.

Assuming you've set said permissions correctly: statistics & logs -> moderator log -> select product -> view

Is there any way for it to redirect you back to the homepage of the forums instead of the admincp?

thank you installed

This is not supported (see first post for type of support offered) but should work. If it does not work, you are on your own.

Edit user_moderation.php, find (x2 instances):
Change to:

Then please click Mark as Installed.

If i want the moderators, say group number 12 also to have the previlage to allow users.
which line of code should i change.
i saw that line 29 but was unable to change it.
can you please help me out thanx

Please read the first post carefully. I have posted a snippet from the Hack Support section below:

when i try to download the zip file, i get a file called attachment.html. I don't get it, is there a problem with the download or is this happening only with me?

Works perfectly. Thx. Had to turn new account moderator feature on because of a previous member who was just banned. He kept comming back and creating new accounts. At least now my 4 super moderators can approve new accounts.

Perfect mod, thx.

The problem seems to be with just you. I just tried it and no problems downloading the attachment at all, also 97 other people did not seem to have a problem either looking at the number of downloads for the attachment.

i just found out how to download, apparently i cannot download using safari. When i tried with firefox it worked and i just installed it, thanks a lot for the wonderful job.

Then please click Mark as Installed in the first post.

Installated but no works :(, i no understand why ...

What does not work for your site??? Please elaborate, and be as descriptive as possible.

I had a new member register since I installed this mod and they recieved a ban message upon registering. Is their a way to fix that? That can be misleading to new registered members. Thanks

This does not automatically ban a user, someone has to select Ban or Ban All when using this tool, as it is set to Ignore for each user as default. So, this is going to be user error, and not an error with this hack.

Is there anyway to make the option appear in the ModCP WITHOUT turning on the "Moderate New Members" option??

The reason being is I have another mod to let through all white listed IP's using this mod:

Moderate New Registrations Based On IP Geographical Origin:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=198440

This works well, local stuff goes through, but the moderation rights are not given to SuperMods unless I flip the above switch to make ALL new registrations require moderation.

So I either have work for Admin (which I don't want) or lots of work for Super Mods (which I would also like to avoid).

edit: I also love the ban option in this mod since if I simply delete spammers they get to reuse the same email address, banning stops that.

Update:

Seems that editing the xml install file and the user_moderation.php file removing the references to $vbulletin->options['moderatenewmembers'] means this little hack doesn't check to see if the moderate new members flag is on, but still checks everything else and still only allows supermods access. (which is exactly what I want).

Is there any downside that I'm missing here?

Not that I can think of, but if you run across any issues I will not be able to help unless you revert the changes, as I do not support custom modifications to this hack.

I appreciate that, it's only a minor change to switch it back if needed, but so far in testing it's looking pretty good.

didnt even see the option in modcp..

Sorry it has taken so long to answer, but have just come back off vacation ;)

280 other sites do not have a problem with this hack showing in the ModCP, so it must be a problem just local to your site.

Can you elaborate further as to the steps you took to install this hack, including vBulletin version you are trying to install this on? As you have not provided any info that will allow me to help you.

The vBulletin v4.0.x version of this hack is available here.

thanks for this will be very useful

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 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.

never mind. please delete this post.

Hi all,

Free support has now been moved back to vBulletin.org.

Please see the first post for more information (and also this thread at Wolfshead Solutions).

Enjoy :)

Mosh Shigdar - Wolfshead Solutions.

is there a mod like this for 4.1.4?

Works great!

Followed the instructions and using 3.8.3 but getting a 404 error when clicking to view the users under moderation in either VB Mod panel or notifications on the actual forum :(

I can edit the settings and see that this mod is active.

Anyone know why this might be happening?

I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling this hack and still my Super Mods cannot get access to moderate new members.

Does anyone know of an alternative? Looks like this is dead and I won't get a response.

It sounds like you have not uploaded the file in Step 1 of the installation instructions to the right location, as a 404 Error is that the file can not be found.

thanks for add

This mod works fine for me except that for the mods, above the main frame showing registrations that need approving, they suddenly get a new frame with a bunch of errors:

...plus another 8 places in init.php, and one in class_core.php.

It doesn't seem to affect the mod, but it's annoying and freaks out my mods.

It is an issue with the PHP version, I suspect you have PHP v 5.3.x or greater installed. You will just need to suppress depreciated messages in your php.ini file...... before you ask, I can not help you with that, but your web host may be able to help, or you could ask over at vBulletin.com - https://www.vbulletin.com/forum/foru...HTML-Questions.
