I have a hack called CES Parser Permissions that lets you set HTML, BB-code in general, IMG-code, smilies, and *anything-code* per usergroup.

Hahah yes, sad I know. What happens is users can't stay away from the board when they need to do homework or study, so they request to be banned. I have grown tired of doing this and I refuse. Thus, they break the rules to force the ban. Which leads to a huge cleanup of images with people defecating on various unnatural portions of the countenance. IF I could hold over their heads that they'd never be able to post images again, even after their ban, this would stop. I'll check this parser permission hack. Thanks.

I'm having a weird issue...

I have it installed...and most of it is working fine...

but for some strange reason...i have one bbcode that only admin should be able to use...but it lets the moderators use it as well...

I've checked everything i can think of and it all seems to be set correctly...any ideas?

Are mods in a usergroup that does not have the setting set to us advanced settings?

thanks !

Haha, this Version 3.0 works much better than 2.1 did on 3.6. Thanks for letting me know, I thought that whole time that 2.1 was the newest version. I'm just sorry I spent my whole day making 2.1 work correctly on 3.6 now.

This seems to be working fine for me... but has an unfortunate side effect. With it on, the BBcode list available to users here:

http://www.myforumname.com/forums/misc.php?do=bbcode

(vb.org's page here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/misc.php?do=bbcode)

...doesn't show the "example output" properly. None of the BBcodes listed show the examples.
With this hack disabled, the examples show properly.

(It also displays the "restricted" BBcodes. I wish it would only show the codes that the user's group is allowed.)

Any workaround or fix for this?

I'll look into it.

I looked into this on my own site and it seems the only way to fix it is to make some file edits. I'll need to look at what I did to my misc.php file to get around these issues.
