Could you add a function that the usergroup can only PM a admin to help protect from new members spamming in pm's yet can still contact a admin for help

If you enable the "APO: Disable Save Copy Feature on 3.8.x" plugin, it breaks the template group names in the style manager, as require_once(DIR . '/includes/adminfunctions_template.php'); at init_startup prevents /admincp/template.php from calling the file again with $phrasegroups = array('style');

Why include/require the adminfunctions_template.php file anyway? You seem to include it in several of the plugins of this mod so you can use the is_newer_version() function.

I think the built-in PHP function version_compare() would do what you want without the overhead and side-effects of including adminfunctions_template.php.

Just a thought, does this alter any behaviour on the newly built-in "PM Quick Reply" system?

Yeah but that is very old mod, made for vB 3.6.x and i was just suggesting Psionic Vision because he`s a better coder to maybe think about integrating this feature in this mod or make another one 10x

I can't figure why but this one doesn't work.

Tested on several forums. Even clean one.

Edit:

Found :D

Code:

<plugin active="0">

PHP Code:


		
			
        <plugin active="0">
            <title>APO: Disable Save Copy Feature on 3.8.x</title>
            <hookname>init_startup</hookname>
            <phpcode><![CDATA[// fetch styling libraries
require_once(DIR . '/includes/adminfunctions_template.php');

// disable save copy feature
if (!is_newer_version('3.8.0', $vbulletin->options['templateversion']))
{
    define('ADVPMOPTIONS_NO_SAVECOPY', true);    
}]]></phpcode>
        </plugin>

Where is this code and what needs to be changed? I'm also getting this option on 3.8.3.

Hi! I installed this mod...then changed something in my usercp options, I got this error message which didn't happen after disabling the product to test:

Code:

warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in [path]/includes/class_core.php on line 1773

Line 1773 reads:

Code:

foreach ($variables AS $varname => $vartype)

Any ideas on how to fix? I'd love to use this mod lol

Hi Psionic...I just wanted to let you know of an issue I had when I updated this mod, I did not have this issue with the first install, it only happened with the update

All my template group names in the style manager went screwy...they said "Templates" rather than for example, "Breadcrumb/Navigation Templates"
Please check this thread for more details: http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=315639

After speaking with support, they gave me a series of steps, but I decided to uninstall your mod first to see if that was the cause of the issue as I had installed/uninstalled 2 mods that day and updated this one, and as soon as I uninstalled this mod, the issue resolved itself, I have no idea why it did this, if it was maybe a combination of things and your's just put the final lid on it or not LOL but thought you might want to look into it

I still want members to be able to private message admins even if the PM is turned off for those members. They still need to be able to message admins or reply to them but not have the permission to send a PM to anyone else. I don't see this feature listed. Thanks!

If the issue is not fixed, then I strongly advise installing this, unless you know what every template group will be.
