Administrative and Maintenance Tools - Advanced Warning System 3.6.7

Advaned Warning System

This is a port of aws and i release this with permission...(yes i did ask the original author)

This version of the warning includes

• 1 vbulletin 3.6.x product file (XML)
• 1 admincp navigation XML
• 1 functions file(functions_warning.php)
• 3 images
• 3 cronjobs
• 1 modcp file to allow moderators to view warnings information without having to give admincp access(mod_warn.php)
• 1 admincp file to manage the system options(admin_warn.php)
• 1 XML to control permissions(bitfield_aws.xml)

For a completer list of the system features you can refer to this

This version will also require vbulletin 3.6.x to run.If you run 3.5.x or any other release then 3.6.x you will see a message.

This system is tested for a long time and i believe it's stable enough for a public release HOWEVER since this is a major hack and i'm just human please consider this first public run still as "beta"

instructions ow howto install can be found in the docs directory within the zip

statistics

• 25 plugins
• 27 templates
• 5 new MySQL tables
• 3 standard vbulletin tables alterd (user,post,and usergroup)
• 827 phrases
• 47 settings

updates

A problem has been found where no link is provided to view your own warnings(normal users) in the member profile only i fixed this.To get the fix you will need to reedit your "MEMBERINFO" template and reimport product-aws.xml (set allow overwrite to yes)

I moved the cron jobs from the install/uinstall code to the product file.
version check url now uses https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/misc.php?...rsion&t=124477

a product depency whas added the system will no longer install on PHP 5 (in response to continued error reports on that PHP version)

People on PHP 5 can follow this instructions to avoid the PHP version related error message BUT remember you are on your own if you do this.I won't upgrade my PHP until PHP 5 is there main stable release (www.php.net)


1-1-2007
A bug has been reported in the system.This bug whas causing vbulletin to throw an error when you try to use admincp => users=> add a new user

Fatal error: Call to a member function clean_gpc() on a non-object in class_dm_user.php(2385) : eval()'d code on line 35

Solution

Edit plugin "AWS:warn link in usermanager" and replace all code with this

PHP Code:

$quicklinks["../Warn.php?" . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . "do=WarnUserNoPost&id=" . $vbulletin->GPC['userid']] = $vbphrase['aws_warn_user_admin']; 


i'll update the package when i get home


Another Bug is fixed

This release includes a fix for the problem "call to member function on a non object class_dm_user.php)" when you try to add a new user manaually (after submitting the form)

I've lost track of the number of times I've tried one or all of your recent fixes and I'm so fed up with these micro-patches and manual edits of your code that I'm tempted to go back to the inferior 'Smith' warning system just so my moderators can actually DO something.

PLEASE review what you changed and fix it with a versioned update or release the older version, as this one seems to be broken for a lot of people.

:edit:
It's the auto-edit feature I needed so badly

you use the system but why i do not see "installed" ? QuickEdit is working fine by the way

Hey Delphiprogrammi,

when the warning system makes a post on a defined forum It's supose to Close/Lock the Thread, But everytime it postes it leaves it open/unlocked. Any ideas what could be going on?


EDIT--

Nm I fixed it I had to change

$threaddm->set('open',1);

anyway I have two other small bugs first when I do a complete removable of a warning from the admicp It removes the warning but this errors shows on top of the page

Warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #1 is not an array in /admincp/admin_warn.php on line 1933

Warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #2 is not an array in /admincp/admin_warn.php on line 1933

and in the MEMBER INFO and POSTBIT page when someone is banned because of exceeding the warning it should show

Warnings: 1
Warning Level : 3
Warning Bans: 1

Im lucky if I even see it the first time cause once you refresh the page it then shows

Warnings: 1
Warning Level : 3

even though the user is still banned. I dont get why it disappears once you refresh the page and wont show in niether Member Info or PostBit's

Any Ideas on both bugs?
Thanks

I will update the php files so the array_merge(); errors will disappaer

Yeah the ban one is weird sometimes when the warning bans people Ill see the Warning bans: x and sometimes I don't and either way its gone when refreshed.

does it record that to the SQL? so I can see if its still in the database or if its gone from the database.

That feature is working as it should i checked and it does not disappaer when i do a refresh probably some other modificcation you have installed is causing the problem

is this happening when you view a thread / post and you click the edit button (make your changes) and click save ? what happends after it ? you get a white page ? no white page but it doesn't show the changes as you made them to refresh ? Quickedit is working fine here note this function uses AJAX ...

In regards to that I see something wierd, maybe you can also do it and see if the same happends

Well I warned someone today enough for a temp ban, now on the postbit it did indeed show the ban and I refreshed it many times and it was still there.. but then I clicked on his name to view his Profile page and the Warning Ban: 1 was gone, then I went back to the postbit and it too was gone.. weird... I then, in the admincp go to Usermanager and select his name and under "Warning Information" it shows the Warnings and Warning points but the ban is "0" .. its like whenever I vist the users profile page it deletes it or something very very weird

can you replicate that for assurance?

Nope i tested again the warning_bans counter is working fine did you downloaded the package from here ? i have found some modified versions floating around here and there using such a version might be the cause.....
