SocialForums adds the group leaders as normal, default moderators to the forum. How vBulletin displays them is not in the range of this modification. You need to disable the option to display Moderators on "View Forum Leaders". It's not a usergroup setting.


Uhm, I thought this has been fixed. Will take a look.

i have a question

With activated option to add owner as a moderator the transfering leads to removing all moderators of the linked forum

what this means?

That means that if you defined an own moderator for that socialforum, that moderator will be removed and replaced by the new owner of the group.

is this something good or bad?

Working great... Can we add a way that when a new member joins the group it also subscribes them to the forum. My forums doesn't get alot of posts so we could easiler miss one but if it emails all the members when a new thread is posted that would be awesome.

Interesting Mod.

Is Important to Add Options for it, like One to Stablish Usergroups and/or Users that Can Create and Associate a Forum for their Social Groups, and to Set a Maximum of Forums to be Able to Create.

Also an Option to Set Which Groups can Have Forums would be a Nice Option, so that Admins can Evaluate if is Important or Not to Allow a Forum to be Created for that Social Group(s).

It'd Also be Important to Set the Option of Minimum Number of Users in the Social Groups on a Mod's Option on the Admin Control Panel.

Only Admins Would Know and Should Control the Way their Boards Should Grow on Forums Structure Not Users.

The Idea is Right and Very Useful, but is Yet Too Open for Users to Waste the Boards Resources without Admin Control. :(

My Best Regards.

I have installed them as new on two boards running 3.8.1 with no previous install, and it is working beautifully!

Question -- I am considering installing this add-on. A number of my user clubs already have forums. Is there a way that I can associate pre-existing forums with newly created social groups under this hack? (In other words, any query that I can easily run?)

Also, did you manage to fix the problem identified in post #50?

can you move threads from the regular forum into these social group forums ?

Yes. You can also run a manual query to assign a groupid to a socialgroup.

Simply replace X with the forumid, and Y with the groupid, of the two that you wish to link. Setting the forumid to 0 removes any forum associated with a socialgroup, allowing that socialgroup to create a new forum.

Question -- Does the query on forumdisplay (to generate a notice linking a forum to its matching socialgroup) occur on all forums, or just socialforums?
