Good job. :) I will add that to the first post giving credit to you.

only problem with that is its still hard coded via usergroups

Thanks! :)

Eh? I read your first post in this thread, but I'm afraid I don't know what "tatchy" is. You mean you want it as a definable option in the AdminCP? I plan to tinker with this hack quite a bit, so if that's what you mean I could do the code for that (if Erwin doesn't mind, of course).

I don't mind. :) Just post it here, and I will include it in the first post.

no i was refering to the fact that you were still using usergroup id's which arnt always a good idea anymore :) (or so i keep being told)

Erm.. if there's another way to do it, I'm all ears. Sure, I used can_moderate() for moderators.. but is there a can_admin(), too? Heh..

can_moderate()

$permissions['adminpermissions'] & CANCONTROLPANEL

at least i think so? what i pulled outta beta 7 :)

$perm['adminpermissions'] & CONTROLPANEL pull info from the currently logged in user, not the selected user -- so those won't work. I've been digging on vB.com and I can't seem to find anything relating to this. I was also digging through the default templates for a clue, but apparently they removed Administrator distinctive traits such as italics in Who's Online and Memberlist.

So.. until I can find how they want me to do it, usergroupid will have to do. :D

if you use

<if condition="$permission['adminpermissions'] & CANCONTROLPANEL"> it will only show to admins

It's $perm['adminpermissions'] and yes, you're right.. that will work if I want to show to admins, but that's not what I'm trying to accomplish sadly.

I need to display warning options on a per user basis, if the selected user is an admin then the warning options will NOT be displayed for them when clicked -- which is why the usergroupid is being used.

$permisson[] gets the permissions of the logged in user, not the selected user.
