The posts become invisible when you delete the contents of the global_ignore template ...

does this send a pm to the person who got warned to tell them?

and does it log who warned who and what for?

well it doesn't by standard

but i suggest u use this warning system and its more comprehensive

however i did use the postbit modifications from Erwins hack
except for the warning bit of course

i used it coz i like the ability to edit signatures , avatars etc

what are the pluses of the version you pointed out over this one?

ok the main pluses are
pms users on warning
you can set warning types via admin cp
logs all warnings so you can check them at a later date
and u can check by who they were done and why

and biggest plus is that its very supported with regards to updates
i was posting my suggestions in that thread not long ago

but with regards to the hack in this thread Erwin has already started he doesn't want to work on this hack

also check the thread i posted in my last post it has some screenshots of it aswell

ZT's hack is ok, but not coded verywell.

not coded very well in what way ?
works perfect for me and its definitely better then Erwins version
which doesn't have the same functionality as ZT's either

I'm having the same problem. Anyone know how to fix this?

Was the warn template added?

Yeah, the template is there. I guess I'll just go through everything again. I must be missing something...

Installed this ok but when I click a users name in a post, I dont get the dropdown menu but it takes me to there profile page?

Any ideas.

Also just found this Mysql error:

You cannot put comments // in the middle of a query. :) That's like putting // comments in the middle of a line of code.

Dull bugger :)

Any ideas on this one M8

Infact none of my drop down menu's are working?

All solved but I have a request.

Can this hack be changed so it can do the following.

If a member gets say 3 points they are banned for 24 hours, if they get 7 points they are banned for 7 days and if they get 10 points they are banned for good.

Laters

it says in the title u can make posts invisible, but i don't see that option.

When a person is Emergency or Troll Banned, all their posts disappear automatically from view. Saves you from having to remove the manually.

Problem.

If I click "List all hack at once"

On the very bottom of the screen after current hack it says:

Warning: in_array(): Wrong datatype for second argument in /home/xxxxxxx/public_html/forums/admincp/hackadmin.php on line 2184

Also:

Current warnings on a username dropdown menu only shows the () there is no figure being shown in between the brackets.

And

If I click ban or suspend I get a "blank page?"
Unban or unsuspend it comes back with "Invalid User Specified"

Any ideas?

1) You haven't installed the hack properly - this hack requires careful following of instructions.

2) If current warning is zero, then by default there is nothing between ().

1) I have twice
2) I was refuring to a member that has been banned and no figure shows.

i have a problam
i installed this hack but i don"t have the dropdown username
i have the 3 options on my control panel but not in the dropdown username?
what i can do?

Do all other dropdown menu's work?

the dropdown in the navbar work but not in the username!

I can't understand why it wouldn't since many more members have installed it and it does work.

One thing I have noticed recently - the /modcp/ and /admincp/ directory names are hardcoded into the templates - shouldn't this pull the variables from the includes/config.php ?

I'll have another go.

Re installed this hack and now I have points showing between the brackets. But I still have the "Ban or Suspend user" I get a blank page "404 error"?

Also

If I click "Unban or Unsuspend" I get "Invalid User Specified"

Any ideas?

I have just upgraded to 3.0.3 and all is working fine apart from the warning points. They do not seem to increase when you add a point, any ideas as i have checked the code and the templates were from before the upgrade so are ok.?

Don't know why it wouldn't work.

Anyway, I'm going to update this hack to add a proper warning system, with automatic PM, automatic notification of which rule is broken, a warning list page... I'm doing this for my site, and will release it once it's finished. :)

aahh that sounds great. Any idea on time scale. I am only asking as i will ununistall this and install the new one when its out.

I installed this on a 3.0.3 installation; after following all the instructions etc, I was able to get the menu to appear; but when I click warn user, the new window comes out blank! Is this hack compatiable with 3.0.3? Did I do something wrong?

Ok, here's what I found out after some reading...

The code is looking for "warn" template, which I did not add because it was NOT included in the package. Can someone please kindly post the warn/warning template that we're suppose to add?

clicks install

I have had the excact samt problem. But was a little confused about the post from "Zero Tolerance". Here the hole edited code-section. I hope this can help others:

There are missing som "TABLE_PREFIX" lines ind the file warn.php

Here are my code-section (that works for me)

for some reason I am getting a 500 error on this now. i think it was the 3.02 upgrade, but not sure when it happened

This was my first attempt at installing a hack and I apparantly blew it. When I click on a users name I only get the default option instead of the hack options to ban, warn, etc.

Anyone have any idea what I did wrong. I was very careful and deliberate as I went through the instructions but must have missed something.

Thanks,

Erwin...

1) Does this hack work for vB3.0.3?

2) Did you get your "proper warning" code added?

Thanks!

It works for 3.0.3 - actually, I installed integrated my hack with the other warning hack, and added a whole bunch of stuff including PM user on thread delete/ closure/ move, email user on ban, a whole lot of stuff. :) This hack is actually redundant. I can't release my current system as I'm using code from the other warning hack.

I know you can not release the whole hack as like you said you used some code from it, but anychance you may release add-ons for it :) So we have the best of both? I love this hack but i was hanging around for the updates.
