PM on Thread Move v1.0
 

A New Version of This Hack has been Released with Support for most Moderation Functions!

Get it from: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=115677

Please UNINSTALL this mod before installing the new one :)



Description
This is a simple little plugin which will send a PM to the thread owner when one of their threads is moved to a different forum, and a re-direct is NOT used.

Quite often the problem arrises of re-directs cluttering up a forum, but if you move a thread without a redirect, then users cannot find it.

This plugin should solve that problem.

Installation
Just upload the attached product XML file. It will add 2 new hooks, and 2 new phrases.

Notes
This currently only works if you move the thread using either the ajax inline moderation, or the Thread Tools menu. If you move the thread from within the ModCP or the AdminCP, then it will not send a PM.

The PM subject and text are stored in the GLOBAL phrases "q_pm_on_move_message_subject" and "q_pm_on_move_message_text" respectivly

Important: Unfortunately, my leased vBulletin licence has now expired, and I won't be renewing it until September which means I will be unable to reply to this thread, or update this mod until then. I'm hopeful that the great vBulletin.org community will step in to answer any questions in my absence though :) See you all in early September! :D

Many thanks. I use to have a mod on my 3.0.* board which would PM the thread starter on any form of moderatoin. ie. move, close, delete etc.

I would love to see these other aspects of moderation added to this mod too.

Though it is still very handy in its existing form, thanks for sharing it.

Good idea. I've started work on this now, I'll (hopefully) have it finished in the next day or so.

thanks. it works great for me.

Great :) ... Installed
We need also for : " Delete, Merge, Spilt, Stick, UnStick ... Other :) ... "

Hi Alan @ CIT

Can you add an option "Send a user PM info about moving thread" or something like that because I don't wish to send this PM every time I move thread.

Nice work, thanks.

Glad to hear it's working ok.

OmaniMan: The other moderation options (close, sticky, delete, etc) will be included in the next release. I'm working on it now, and hope to have it finished in a day or 2.

Cybernetec: Good idea, I'll try and work it into the next release.

thx Alan great idea... Installed!!

I am eagerly anticipating this addition too.
Good work here :)

The next update is coming along nicely now. I've finished adding the PM code to the other options when using the "Thread Tools" menu, just starting on the Ajax ones now :)
