Administrative and Maintenance Tools - Moderator Application System 2.1

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 "mas-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, a quick dirty one. no not like that

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:

Wait! ain't this the same as the last one? yes but this one runs on 3.5.x :ninja:

[hr]xxx[/hr]

To Upgrade just run install the new product.xml please see the upgrade.txt for more details

To Uninstall just remove the product

What's new? you can now add your own questions and stuff

For real? for real.

One more thing? sure.

What's the difference between 2.0 and 2.1? Not a whole lot, just phrased the front end and fixed a long standing db table prefix bug.

What do i edit to change the links in the quick links targets?

This hack does not appear to be supported, shame.

is the modapp.php in the forum folder?

did you set the uergroups via the adminCP? vbOptions ---> Moderator Application System

Where is you mod app link?

cron does not seem to work but it does not matter to me really, we are using this hack to just keep a moderator/tech app on record JUST for admins and have the submitted notice sent to the admin forum only.

Also when you put in a non existent name to delete an app, you get a database error, not an, oops error page or this user does not exist.

The hack works. I Just need to know where i can edit the quicklinks template so i can change the link to the MOD app system

In the navbar

breadcrumbs ---> navbar and mine is in the quick links as only usergroups 6, 5, and 2 can see it is there

here is what mine looks like in the quick links

<if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 6, 5, 2)"><tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="$vboptions[bburl]/modapp.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[mas_apply_to_be_a_mod] </a></td></tr></if>

and I have it set in the admin panel so only admin can view it.

I disabled the cron as it does not work, a totally reworded the application to suit my needs.

Is there a way to make it so it sends PMs to the moderators and admins instead of creating a thread??

can you clarify on number one please?

Out of curiosity, how does the application deny applicants? I saw no option to turn down an application, only the option to rate it.

little error in modapp.php

I just added this but can't figure out where the members go to access the form to submit?

This mod looks very nice. After installing it, I have several questions.

1. Where are the docs? I had to search to find out there is a phrase I need to edit to change the primary text for the application.
2. In the phrase, I see {1} & {2}. I found that {1} brings up the site name, but what is {2} for?
3. I do not want my moderators to be involved in this, how do I remove the link from the ModCP?
4. If I remove the link, how do I still allow Super Moderators to rate the applications?

[PGAmerica]

Is there any support?
