I'm confused. What's the status of this mod for 4.0? What works and what doesn't? Do BBCodes with options work?

I'm asking that because at our board, we use it to create messages from staff members with a special appearance, so it won't be possible to counterfeit them.
Will that still work?
Will it still work if one has an option in it? That's what we use to make titles of our messages.

It needs a little work for 4.0X

I would like to install this mod, but I'm missing a very importand bbcode permission.
And that's the img code permission. Can this be added to this mod please?

Hello! I do not even know PhP. I had a run-in with Bank of America because someone posted phishing links. So I want to enable active links in signatures only--and for "premium" usergroups only. Such signature-only links are easy to monitor and control. Also, signature links are essential to reward participation by serious forum members.

I greatly respect this tidy modification. But all I want is to enable active links in signatures--and nowhere else.

...Ironically... the standard Vbulletin 3.0 options (I am not yet upgraded to 4.0) "almost" supply what I want. "Edit Usergroup" can specify link-in-signature permissions for specific groups... But... the only way to turn off links in posts will override the link-in-signature settings--disabling all links in all signatures for all groups...!

(Admin --> Options --> BB Code Settings --> Allow link BB Code --> "...Disabling a bbcode will prevent it from working anywhere on the forum, including signatures...")

1. Instead of using a PhP mod--can I perhaps just modify a template--so that disabling a link BBcode will not affect signatures...?
2. Otherwise, can you please add to Advanced BBcode Permissions: two separate "Links" permissions for "Posts" and "Signatures"...?
3. (If you want to go beyond perfect, perhaps someday we could specify a precise number of links allowed in signatures, between 0 and 9.)

Two weeks later, November 15, 2010:

P.S. I met my needs with no PhP modifications. I decided there is no need to separate message links from signature links. Instead, simply limit all links to "premium" members who pay a nominal fee. I disabled [url] links forum-wide, and "announced" that members must pay $1/year to enable links. These 'premium' members then receive a 'custom' BB code for links. All do-able with standard Vbulletin features. However it is clumsy to post hypertext links without the link button. It would certainly be best to use Advanced BBcode Permissions. I intend to do so when my forum has more members.

Anyway, thank you for your hard work. (Everyone who uses good things like this should please donate at least $5 or $10!)

In the 3.8.2 version the plugin works fine, but produce conflicts with anothers packages from CYB, like the chatbox.

Anyone had similar problems with others mods and this one?
Thanks in advance.

I'm going to put my hat in here on the adding support for img tags!

Or perhaps just the code to do so, I may try to figure it out.

I installed this on 4.0.8 and it works perfectly for me.

Installed 3.0 or Beta Version on 4.0.8

Also, where do I modify the php code in the post from the last page? I can't seem to find it anywhere.

I installed the version currently in the first/top post: advanced_bbcode_permissions_3_0.zip (version 3.0).
The "Beta" link is to the exact same file.
