vb.org Archive - View Single Post - Is there a way to make it appear an infraction came from a central user?

I appreciate your reply Lynne, as usual. This gives me some hope that it's actually possible to do.

So I tried changing the userid on line 652 to 2, which is the userid of the account I want the infractions to appear like they came from. When I tested it, it gave the infraction, but didn't create the infraction thread in the admin area, didn't show up on the users infraction list within his profile, and didn't send the PM.

I've read about hooks but I don't know how to spot one, let alone change it.

I then tried changing the lines around 747 so the userid was 2 and the username was Northwest Firearms. When I tried to issue an infraction it returned a fatal error.

--------------- Added [DATE]1251228223[/DATE] at [TIME]1251228223[/TIME] ---------------

Ah I see the $hook below the second set of code now, though I still don't know the proper way to modify it.
