Advanced Editing Options For Mods & Admins · **Released**: 02-09-2004

Ok, another one of my vb2 Hacks has been ported over and Optimized

This hack allows mods and Admins to restrict the edit permissions on a levelbased system.
Admins can disallow everyone to edit that post, while mods just can restrict editing by the author. Supermods can restrict editing by normal moderators as well.

Admins also have additional features:
- Editing the Timestamp of that Post
- Editing the Author
- Editing the IP

Nothing more to explain i think, look at the screenies if you need more infos.

Please don't forget to click install

Great, no... awesome hack! Easy to install too. Thanks Xenon.

Installed easy - works great. However....

When I change any of the "advanced" fields, I get the "Edited By:" at the bottom of the post, even though admins have the option set to NOT show that.

How can I take care of that issue please?

Thanks!

Xenon,

Does this hack make it possible to keep threads within a forum in a certain chronological order, regardless of when the last post in each thread was?

Thanks

Hi, nice mod but how can I just show the advanced edit to admin only, not mods

You could modify the code to change the permisssions, but have you read what mods, supermods, and admins can actually do?

Yes I read it, but I would only like it for admin's to use this... do you know
what permission I change... :squareeyed:

Many thanks

well, theoretically possible by always editing postdates, but i would suggest to rewrite the sorting in forumdisplay.php instead (which is another hack)

how abt some updates to this hack

Xenon needs to stress on this hack to make it lil more better ^_^

I guess, this was the first hack i selected to installed on forums

Regards,

Well, i want to add some things to it as well, but unfortunatelly i'm very very very busy until at least Jan 2005

FYI If the post being changed is the latest post, I've noticed that the username doesn't change in `last post on' the forums index page.

I found that if I then click on Edit Thread > click save changes, that this corrects the new username showing in last post.

This hack is absolutely wonderful!
Each time I use it XXX's go to Xenon.

Thanks,
Mark

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
