Forgive me if this sounds to simple but,

2 Things

1) I want ot create 2 of these anonymous users, one for mods and one for smods, the one that smods use, I dont want mods to see, who posted it.
Is this possible?

2) If this does not become one of the mods of the month, I'll be surprized.

Excellent work.

I am going to install a test board and test this right away.

Thank you for the time you put into this ;)

You have a "bug" in the installer. ;)

Code:

                // ### POST NEW POST ###

                $DB_site->query("

                        INSERT INTO " . TABLE_PREFIX . "post

                                (threadid, parentid, title, username, userid, dateline, pagetext, allowsmilie,

                                 showsignature, ipaddress, iconid, visible, attach)

                        VALUES

                                ($threadinfo[threadid], $parentid, '" . addslashes($post['title']) . "',

                                  '" . addslashes($post['postusername']) . "', $bbuserinfo[userid], " . TIMENOW . ",

                                 '" . addslashes($post['message']) . "', $post[enablesmilies], $post[signature],

                                 '" . addslashes($post['ipaddress']) . "', $post[iconid], $post[visible], $totalattachments,$post[postasmod],'". addslashes($post[modname]) ."')");

should be

Code:

                // ### POST NEW POST ###

                $DB_site->query("

                        INSERT INTO " . TABLE_PREFIX . "post

                                (threadid, parentid, title, username, userid, dateline, pagetext, allowsmilie,

                                 showsignature, ipaddress, iconid, visible, attach, postasmod, modname)

                        VALUES

                                ($threadinfo[threadid], $parentid, '" . addslashes($post['title']) . "',

                                  '" . addslashes($post['postusername']) . "', $bbuserinfo[userid], " . TIMENOW . ",

                                 '" . addslashes($post['message']) . "', $post[enablesmilies], $post[signature],

                                 '" . addslashes($post['ipaddress']) . "', $post[iconid], $post[visible], $totalattachments,$post[postasmod],'". addslashes($post[modname]) ."')");

Thanks. I was stripping out other hacks that I have installed on the fly while writing the directions. I'll update the text file now.

Nice idea, some of the members in my forum are a tad sensative. That way, when my mods post, the members will be like... "Whoo teh helL? I kill who 3vAr dat was!!111..one". heh.. come to think of it, my mods might actually enjoy this hack. lol

EDIT: Crap, this does look fairly difficult. I'll do this when I'm not too lazy. ^_^;;;

great hack.... not needed on my forums but good job all the same :)

It requires that the is_member_of improvement hack be installed IF you plan to check for more than one usergroup. That hack can be found here:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/show...ht=is_member_of

Is it required if want to use this hack for my normal users?
Sorry today i have some Problems to understand the englisch language...

Which Part do i have to modify if every usergroup should can use this feature?

amykhar

12-13-2004 06:12 PM

No, it's not required if all users can use it. I'm sorry, this hack is in beta and I don't have time right now to step through variations of it at this time.

cinq	12-14-2004 01:08 AM

This is a great hack Amy, I will be following progress of this one :)
Sure could use it on my live board :D

pjdaley

12-14-2004 02:07 PM

good hack, but damn... theres alot of changes. you can get confused if you have alot of hacks installed. Like the last edit got me really confused that i couldnt get it to work. I'll try it again tonight.

Well, I installed it on a fresh vbulletin in a test directory and it worked fine.

I tryed to install it in my live site with much less success.

I realize it is conflicting with one or more of the many hacks I have installed.
I didn't think the instructions were that difficult, but.. :p

So, I may take you up on the offer of the payed install help, after the new year, as you seem busy right now.

Thank you for this hack though, It looks quite kewl

pjdaley

12-16-2004 01:18 AM

wow, what is your fee?

Gaffer

12-17-2004 03:41 AM

wow... this thing will be great to install... i'm sort of bogged down with work right now so i'll wait till just after Xmas to install on my 2 forums.

on another note does this work with all Mods, Admin and Smods. or only Mods

amykhar

12-17-2004 10:28 AM

all mods and admins.

Gaffer

12-17-2004 10:01 PM

cool

this will so be installed

vau7	01-08-2005 08:02 AM

Is there a Chance for a Release as full Release

ranger2kxlt

01-13-2005 05:57 PM

hmm...can't get the option to show in the threads :-/

ranger2kxlt

01-13-2005 07:37 PM

I got it, had to install that other hack as mentioned ;-)

ranger2kxlt

01-14-2005 01:31 PM

Seem to have found a bug....When you click on the users name to get the menu option, is pulls it up but under the post count now, and not directly under the users name :-/

I have tried everything i can think of to get it to work, but no go......

vau7	01-15-2005 03:43 AM

Works perfectly for me now.
Just one little Problem:

How can i restrict some Forums to use this mod. Exactly i want just 1 Forum where it is allowed to use this.

Any else has solved this?

I'm pretty sure the editpost.php edit should be

PHP Code:


		
			
attach = attach + $newattachments

(I don't have a comma in my one).

vau7	01-15-2005 08:39 PM

Yeah, thats a failure. I dont have a coma in mine to and got these db-errors. Fixed it with a comma.

DrBrainiac

02-24-2005 12:41 PM

This is exactly what i was looking for. I already have a few discussions on the forum when mods to their job and people take it rather personal. Awesome job !!!

kall	02-28-2005 07:30 PM

Here's a suggestion/request I would love to see:

Mods have the option to 'post as non-staff'.

This could be used in a situation where the staff member wants to make a comment to a thread but doesn't want it to appear to be an official comment...just a personal one.

They can then tick 'post as non-staff' and the resulting postbit will have an alternate title/rank image associated with it.

amykhar

02-28-2005 08:05 PM

It's basically the same hack Kall. All you would have to do would be change the template for the checkbox and change the postbit. (Unless you wanted the abilty to do both. Then, you would need extra code, which would probably be better suited as a separate hack and not an addon to this one.)
