If there was a slight change then i'd probably be ok with it
However as a noob to coding, I read your instructions which start off
Code:
Open mod/user.php:
------------------
find:
echo "<tr><td nowrap><p>$user[username]</p></td>".iif($perms[ismoderator] or $ismod['canbanusers']==1, "<td nowrap><a href=\"user.php?action=ban&userid=$user[userid]\"><p>[ban]</p></a></td>", "").iif($perms[ismoderator] or $ismod['canviewprofile']==1, "<td nowrap><a href=\"user.php?action=viewuser&userid=$user[userid]\"><p>[view user]</p></a></td>", "")."</tr>\n";
I searched for several bits of that in user.php and Im afraid I couldn't see anything too similiar. Despite searching for several bits of the above line I couldnt find so presumed the code had changed a lot for the version I using.
It may in fact be a slight difference, but just didnt want to break a spangly new working forum
Thanks in advance for any advice, and apologies if I appear to be too noobish

Only added 1 other hack to date, and that was more straight forward with what needed changing.
