After some requests and a debate in the requests forum I've finally finished the majority of this hack. It allows the admin to find a user via the current method in the control panel then click view user's pm's. They are then shown all the pm's in the users folders.

Includes admin logging and is designed to use the cp.css file which is already used by the control panel. I considered adding a search feature but it would be hard without indexing all of the pm's the way vBulletin already does. This means it would be a very limited search.
You can also now select which admins can view user pm's this is done the same way that restriction to the adminlogging is done, the variable is at the top of pm.php

This hack involves uploading pm.php to the admin directory then following the instructions which requires you adding the two links within /admin/user.php

Update was to fix broken smilies by disabling them and to show pm's in all folders not just the inbox. To update simply upload pm.php to your admin folder again.

I`ll try this out later man....thanks!

Works very well for me! Thank you! :D

sweet hack, nice job PPN

Cool hack, works great! :)

EXCEPT, all of the smilies are broken, show as red x's. :(

(not a big deal, just thought I'd let you know!)

yeah i've yet to figure out a way to fix that, as it relies on the images folder being in the folder with all the main files and not the admin section. I don't think there is going to be an easy way around this.

I guess I could just upload the smiley folder/files to the admin directory, right?
