Display option for tachy goes to coventry

I tried this out on a troublesome poster yesterday.

A normal poster sees no message at all when they post, as if they had never posted at all.

A forum moderator sees "The administrator has decided <unsername> should be quiet for a while"

As do the admins.

Is there anyway of changing it so that only the admins see that message, and the forum moderators see what normal posters see?

I checked through the group options for forum moderators but couldn't see anything to do with it.

It looks like all moderators get to see the message, I only the admins to see it.

thanks.

Try Erwin's Warning System, Automatic Ban, Make Posts Invisible, Edit Signature/ Avatar/ Picture hack.

It may be a longer way round than another method, but I think that's what you want. I seem to recall it being able to be set for mods to not see the posts..

could anyone say whether I have done this right or nor please :)

In the includes/function_showthread.php
part of the function construct_postbit

this is what it does currently

Code:

        // hide users in Coventry from non-staff members

        if ($tachyuser = in_coventry($post['userid']) AND !can_moderate($thread['forumid']))

        {

                return;

        }

change to

Code:

        // hide users in Coventry from non-staff members

        if ($tachyuser = in_coventry($post['userid']) AND !$permissions['adminpermissions'])

        {

                return;

        }

Basically trying to only show tachy messages if you are an admin, rather than anyone who can moderate. ???

I suppose what I'm askign here is it sufficient to say this

!$permissions['adminpermissions']

To see if the person is admin level or not.
As I only want Admin people to see it not normal moderators.
