MAF: (Moderator Application Form & Application Rating Module)

FAQ:
What Does It Do? it enables your members to apply to be a mod, cuts down on all the asking and stuff

That It? basically

What about the cool back end? ooh yeah, so anyway it will email on the 14th day to either let em know they've been shortlisted or to try again at a later date

How will it know? mod ratings innit, if their under 7 their outta there

Anything else? nah i guess it starts a thread in your mod forum to tell your mods to rate em

How does it know what forum and who's the threadster? you tell em via the admincp options (where the rest of the vboptions are) theirs a handy little group for the MAF and i don't mean 2+2

Ok so that's gotta be it now? nope

What else does it do? it logs it all in the admincp schedules tasks and sends you a copy of the email

Damn who taught you all that? various folks, special thanks to Dean, Marco, OBK and Zero Tolerance who helped me on this specific hack though.

Ok so what's the install like? swift the long thing is the upload

Ok rumour is it needs to run a cron, what's a cron? :squint: it's the automated do-dad in the admincp

How do i set it up? it's so straight forward you could close your eyes and do it, the file you're cronning is called "maf-cron.php" and i recommend running it at 12.30 (that means leave the rest as stars)

Ok so if their an installer? there is indeed thanks to Link and his magical HIS

Well now that's sorted can i install it? please do!

How can i help you become cooler? click install and let's see if i can become hack of the month innit

Bye now? yes go :ermm:











So you heard their was an upgrade and you're wondering just what you have to do right? simply reupload all the files (not including your cron if you wanna be special and then just run the installer, if that gives you trouble just click overrite original settings, all it's gonna do it reinstall the phrases, reinstall the templates and tell you the two file mods to remake.


So you heard their was an upgrade this time around? simply reupload all the files (if you wanna pretend to be uber 1337 just upload the admincp file and the cron folder file)

Hi, I'm wondering how I can find and edit the "Moderator Policy" box, the thing that pops up when someone goes in to apply to be a moderator, because I'm wanting to make it so it's an agreement to be a moderator, or a DJ, or other things, etc... I've been looking for the template that has it, but I can't find it. :cry:

I get:

Database error in vBulletin 3.0.7:

Invalid SQL:
DELETE *
FROM maf_application
WHERE userid = 2

mysql error: You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '*
FROM maf_application
WHERE userid = 2' at line 1

mysql error number: 1064

I think the problem is that my table prefixes are "1". How could I get this to work?

alright i did that to get the delete applicants thing working, but now i cant even access the page... lol

Chris, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

   1. Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
   2. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

that is after i tried the form out, and then deleted my application... my partner was testing the rating and put me at a 1, is that a problem? i delted it though

[Brandon Sheley]

and don't forget to set up a cron to run once daily (you will need to configure your cron on line 10, this requires a manual edit of the file before upload)

can you explain this for me ? i understand that " cron" deals with Scheduled Task Manager,,, thast about all i know about it.. i've installed the mod and it works great, but i can't delete app's and im guessing this is the reason.. please explain more for me,, thank you

Just to note, my problem on the previous page (HIS gives blank page only) is not related to a previous version MySQL problem, I am using 4.3.1

Any ideas?
