AgeLock v3.5
 
1 Attachment(s)
Age Lock is an all-in-one Forum locking facility that works off the users age instead of there permissions
It gives you the ability to keep those Under 18's out of your adult section


Change log
+ Added support for CMS (Blog locking is there but not usable (99.9% sure blog locking is prob. pointless, since all users would be able to age restrict posts))
+ Enable/Disable Guest Viewing of age locked forums
+ Moved Age Lock core from outdated hook (global_start) to new (global_bootstrap_init_start)
+ Removed defunct Error message
+ Added abillity to re-enable Date of Birth Editing for all users
+ Fixed Bug where Date of birth editing is still disabled for users who are exempt from Age Lock
+ Reworded Default Age Lock Messages
+ Added support for multi-level forum locking using parent lock state (instead of parent-->forum, now parent-->forum-->subforum-->..)
+ Removed over zelus agelock checking (No more queries to get lock state)
+ Removed vb 3.x support

3.5a Fixes
+ Fixed CMS bugs (missing table prefix)
+ Updated template edit to work with Vb 4.1.5

3.5b Fixes
+ Really fixes the CMS bugs (Sorry :( )

Please be aware although support is provided it is limited. This version is in beta so expect bugs!

enjoy

Uninstall all previous versions before installing latest version!

There is NO update code from previous versions to this!

This is pointless because what happens when someone lies about their age and they gain access to an 18+ section of someones forum?

Atleast with permissions you have to vet them first using join requests for access to an 18+ group before they can view 18+ forums.

Neptun 02-13-2010 07:06 PM
the idea is very good .. but i has no sense because nobody can control the ages in the registrations ....

but maybe you can use the functions of this hack for another idea ;)

Firstly Permissions offer no extra form of protection either, seeing as you have no idea who they are anyway not to mention the level of extra work involved for the admins to "vet".

Secondly, The idea is to remove the legal ramification from the site admins, yes users can and will lie about there age but it works on the basis that you trust your members. it's impossible for you to prevent people signing up with a fake bday unless you required proff of there D.O.B, however it helps to cover your back by providing a service which attempts to prevent under age users viewing adult material.

On a side note if you dont need the mod fine dont use it but dont go around calling mods pointless, at the end of the day you may not need it but someone else may, i wrote this mod a while back and 100+ installs dont seem to show it being pointless!

Hornstar 02-13-2010 08:07 PM
It is actually a great hack. something which I wish I had in some of my mods (vbtube etc.)

Is it possible to have a usergroup ignore the age permission?

stuie_b 02-13-2010 08:22 PM
Currently the only user group that is exempt is the admin's/mods, I've added that option to list of features for the next update,

Stuie

argothiusz 02-13-2010 08:27 PM
Just what I needed. Tagged for future use. Sure, members can change their age but this is the internet we are talking about. How many people using your board will most likely sign up with their real birthdate? I think this mod is great and offer extra protection for mature area.

TimberFloorAu 02-13-2010 08:28 PM
no use to us, but great mod mate, well done and a cracking idea

Cableguy69 02-13-2010 09:16 PM
Installed, great mod thanks.

The plus side is when a member signs up they are more likely to post there real age then discover they need to be 18 to access that section.

With Adult sections you can never be 100% sure your letting in over 18's only, but as long as you are seen to be trying that is what is important.

rajubd 02-13-2010 09:56 PM
Can you improvit to adslock. Like person who use adblocker addon on firefox can't view forum. It will be great addon maybe best addon of the year.

Forum Lover 02-14-2010 12:27 AM
Hell of a hack! :) requesting to integrate with DownloadsII. Tagged.

Can we have it like this please?
+ Minor will never see any adult corner. Any post or thread or forum. Not even from any search.
+Lets have an option under "Quick Links" for adults like, "Switch on/off Agelock". So that Adults also get chance to switch it ON in front of any minors from there family and later they can go back to switch it off.

VonDoom 02-14-2010 01:21 AM
Installed and nominated... works ike a dream.. thanks for this.

Stuie

I guess your right but i already pay for a facility that age checks people using their credit card details if they choose to enter 18+.

It's a pricey plugin but you cannot lie about your age then, after all i wouldnt want my kids to lie about their age and then see something they shouldnt causing a whole lot of problems.

CRDeveloper 02-15-2010 06:51 PM
Hi!

I just installed this mod, but i get a error code in visitor view.

I've a 100% Adult forum haha.

Lets say i blocked a forum and sub-forum and then i go to open internet explorer (for testing) as a visitor, and try to open another section of the website (that i haven't lock) and i get this

PHP Code:
Warning: Cannot use a scalar value as an array in [path]/includes/functions.php on line 4085

Warning: Cannot use a scalar value as an array in [path]/includes/functions.php on line 4085

Warning: Cannot use a scalar value as an array in [path]/includes/functions.php on line 4085

Warning: Cannot use a scalar value as an array in [path]/includes/functions.php on line 4085 
And the rest of the page is messed up.

My board threads aren't allowed to be view by unregistered members anyway, but even if i disable that the problems still there.

Right now the mod is disable, cuz i don't know what the hell? :confused:

Thanks for the help and the mod!! :)

Im having a similar problem, in that it doesnt affect my whole board, it just shows up when a person enters a wrong password to login to the board - it does this in any browser for me when the add-on is enabled, disabling it solves this however, i would rather be able to use it!

Also mine isnt line 4085 mine is line 4124 in functions.php

Otherwise it is a good add-on ^^

[EDIT]I solved my problem by turning off the option should i hide the forum on the main Index? in the Agelock settings[/EDIT]

stuie_b 02-23-2010 12:16 AM
the problem has been identified and I'll be releasing a fix asap,

as a quick fix, add @ to the forumdisplay_start hook

stuie_b 02-26-2010 10:14 PM
AgeLock v3.1A

Fixed Cannot use a scalar value
Fixed homepage notification bug (shows even when agelock is globally disabled)

For those with v3.0 already installed, the changes can be made without having to uninstall v3.0B and then install v3.1A,

Edit Plugin "global_start"

FIND
Code:
if($vbulletin->options['agelock_global'] and $vbulletin->options['agelock_hidemain']){
foreach ($vbulletin->forumcache as $key => $value){
    if (agelock_check($vbulletin->forumcache[$key]['forumid'],1)){
                $vbulletin->forumcache[$key] =0;
                }
}
}
REPLACE WITH
Code:
if($vbulletin->options['agelock_global'] and $vbulletin->options['agelock_hidemain']){
foreach ($vbulletin->forumcache as $key => $value){
    if (agelock_check($vbulletin->forumcache[$key]['forumid'],1)){
                unset($vbulletin->forumcache[$key]);
                }
}
}
Template Edit
"forumhome_forumbit_level1_post And forumhome_forumbit_level2_post"

FIND
Code:
<vb:if condition="$vboptions['agelock_frmnt'] AND $forum['agelock']">{vb:raw $vboptions['agelock_frmntm']}</vb:if>
REPLACE WITH
Code:
<vb:if condition="$vboptions['agelock_frmnt'] AND $forum['agelock'] AND $vboptions['agelock_global']">{vb:raw $vboptions['agelock_frmntm']}</vb:if>
However the new version of AgeLock now allows you to specify Usergroup are exempt from the Agelock check, this requires a full update!

Does adult user can turn the lock off/on now?

But can't they still change their birthdays in the User CP if they find they are locked out of a fourm?

No Age Lock removes the abillity to change your date of birth from the profile, once its installed only an admin/mod can change user DOB's from the admincp.


Stuie

Boofo 06-24-2010 11:57 AM
Ahh, ok, so this hacks stops anyone from changing their DOB? Great! Thank you.

tbl33 07-06-2010 06:12 PM
I installed this on v 4.0.4 and while,the install seemed to go well, it does not seem to work.

I added a few group that I did not want it to worry about like administrator, supermoderator
enabled it and clicked save. When I went to the registered Users group, I see no place to edit any age info. Each usergroup page looks just like it did before I installed this.
Am I missing something?

Thank you in advance!

Age Lock is forum based not user based, to specify any age lock you need to edit your specific forums, Admincp --> Forums & Moderators --> Forum Manager --> Edit

On a side note Admins and mods are already exempt from the age lock you dont need to add them to the Exempt usergroups in the Age lock Options.

Stuie

tbl33 07-07-2010 03:43 AM
Oh, well don't I feel stupid. hehehe.....

Thank you!!!

tbl33 07-07-2010 06:35 PM
For some reason I cannot get age lock to exempt the following group.

Unregistered / Not Logged In

I have tried Unregistered / Not Logged In, Guest, 1 for group id of 1.
Not sure what else to try, any advice?

I do not want to block people that are not logged in. I already have that stuff taken care of the way I want it via forum permissions.
I only want to block based on the the registered users group and the coppa groups.

tbl33 07-14-2010 08:00 PM
Still awaiting an answer. I thought that this mod was supported.

yes this mod is supported to the best of my abillities and time, i do have other things which need to be sorted before support is an issue like the next version of Age Lock maybe you should be greatful for having support at all,

In answer to your question guest are not exemptable in this version, they are in the latest version which is still under development and at the min there is no eta (problems :) ),

however since you seem hell bent on this here is a modded version of the code which will enable guest viewing

Edit Global_start hook (Age Lock - Global Setup) and replace all with
PHP Code:
//Age Lock v3.1

function agelock_populate($fid){
global $db, $vbulletin;
$agelock_qry = $db->query_first("SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX ."forum WHERE forumid='".$fid."'");
if($agelock_qry['parentid'] > 0){
    //Check for Parent Lock
    $agelock_parent = $db->query_first("SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX ."forum WHERE forumid='".$agelock_qry['parentid']."'");
    if($agelock_parent['agelock_parent']){
        //Parent is locked, send lock status for sub-forum from parent
    $agelock_ret['locked'] = $agelock_parent['agelock'];
    $agelock_ret['method'] = $agelock_parent['agelock_method'];
    $agelock_ret['age']  = $agelock_parent['agelock_age'];
    }else{
        //Parent Lock is Not enabled, send lock status for sub-forum
     $agelock_ret['locked'] = $agelock_qry['agelock']; 
    $agelock_ret['method'] = $agelock_qry['agelock_method'];
    $agelock_ret['age'] = $agelock_qry['agelock_age']; 
    }
}
$pre_year=date("Y"); $pre_month=date("m"); $pre_day=date("d"); $bday = explode("-", $vbulletin->userinfo['birthday']);
if($pre_month>$bday[0] || ($bday[0]==$pre_month && $pre_day>=$bday[1]) ){$agelock_ret['userage'] = $pre_year-$bday[2];}else{$agelock_ret['userage'] = $pre_year-$bday[2]-1;}
return $agelock_ret;
}//End of the AgeLock Population Funcion


function agelock_check($fid,$flag=0){
global $vbulletin,$db;
$agelock = agelock_populate($fid);

if($agelock['locked'] == 1 and $vbulletin->options['agelock_global']){
//if(!$vbulletin->userinfo['userid']){if($flag){return 1;}else{standard_error($vbulletin->options['agelock_guest']);}}
if(!$vbulletin->userinfo['permissions']['adminpermissions'] and !preg_match("/".$vbulletin->userinfo['usergroupid']."/i",$vbulletin->options['agelock_exmptusr'])){
if(!$vbulletin->userinfo['birthday'] and $vbulletin->userinfo['userid']){if($flag){return 1;}else{standard_error($vbulletin->options['agelock_nobday']);}}

if($agelock['method'] == 0){ //This forum has a lock, they need too be older than the value set
if($agelock['userage'] < $agelock['age']){ //Are you old enuff? 
if($flag){return 1;}else{standard_error($vbulletin->options['agelock_toyng']);} //Your too young!
}

}elseif($agelock['method'] == 1){ //This forum has a lock, they need too be Younger than the value set
if($agelock['userage'] >= $agelock['age']){ //Are you young enuff?
if($flag){return 1;}else{standard_error($vbulletin->options['agelock_toold']);} //Your too Old!
}
}

} //End of check if there able to bypass the lock (admins/mods or user specified usergroups)
} //End of main age lock code
} //End of function

if($vbulletin->options['agelock_global'] and $vbulletin->options['agelock_hidemain']){

Thank you! No need to get salty. A simple acknowledgement of my message would have prevented my sending another message, "7 days later". Anyway, thank you for your efforts.

tbl33 07-15-2010 09:35 PM
FYI, the code works for allowing guests but it would appear that the sub forums locking isn't working real well. It locks the first tier under the category but anything below that is open.

ie. Underground is locked to over 18 the sub of Others is also locked but all of the subs under Others, is wide open.

I didn't notice if that was an issue in 3.1 or just the modified code above.

darksoul 08-08-2010 08:39 AM
Hello,

We have a board with 148 forums and subforums. On each page load your plugin will query the database for all forums and it managed to fill a 100Mbps pipe line to the mysql server.
The agelock_populate function should use the forumcache instead of querying the database every time.

Regards,
Darksoul

stuie_b 08-11-2010 10:52 AM

This is a great hack, thank you! Marked installed & 5 starred. :)

Oh also, in the template changes, I needed to add vb: in front of the "if" conditions in the code, otherwise I was getting an error when I tried to save the template. I have 4.0.6. I don't know if needing a vb: in front of the IF's is a new thing with that version, I just noticed all the surrounding IF's had vb: in front of them, so I tried it and it got rid of the error. This is what I did:

Code:
<vb:if condition="$vboptions['agelock_frmnt'] AND $forum['agelock'] AND $vboptions['agelock_global']">{vb:raw $vboptions['agelock_frmntm']}</vb:if>
