Not everyone who mods a forum should show up on the "forum leaders" page
 

Well, since the search didn't give me any results, I'll just request this.

I've got a few members who are allowed to mod a forum, but they aren't real mods, so I don't want them to show up on the "forum leaders" page.

Sure, I could just turn off the display of mods on that page, but that's not the point of it.
I still want the real mods and the forums they mod to be displayed there, so is there any way to do so?
Is there a way to exclude certain members from that list?

I'm quite sure there is a way to do so, since it seems to be working here, at vb.org.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated^^

Just don't add them to the Moderators Usergroup, only add them as moderator to their forum.

That's what I did, but they still show up.

This is needed badly.

I like to keep my moderators anonymous, but want to have the showgroups available so members can contact admins if needed.

Well, any other ideas?
I know there is a way to, it's working here o.o


You can already do that.
Just turn the mods off in the general settings.

Bump.

Any ideas?

All I do if I don't want them to show up, is add the moderator group as there second group and not there primary. This keeps them for showing up for me atleast. Only other thing I can suggest if that doesn't work is creating another group "Mod 2" same privelages as a mod however don't show them on the forumleaders.

Logician has modified showgroups.php & few templates for more functioning. The Sand Man published it over at The Admin Zone. You may want to check it & see if it does what you're asking for.

Thanks, but that isn't what I was looking for.

I'll explain it better:
Take a look at the attachment.
The people with the blues usernames are mods, the others aren't.
They just mod a forum, but don't belong to the moderator usergroup.
I don't want them to show up.

Seems like it's working here on vb.org...

Can I bump this as well, since I feel it could be a critical requirement. I can remove the entire section in showgroups.php that follows:

but that removes the whole mod listing. I too have a board where I'd like the Moderators (primary and/or secondary) to be shown but individual forum mods not to, to preserve a certain anonymity.

Thanks :)
