Extensive filter for a quick lookup of warnings that much certain criteria.
Ability to permanently revoke unexpired warnings as an alternative to complete deletion. That way they stay in the log, but have no further effect.
Smart, Full-Featured Front End
Amount of points and duration of a warning.
Real and "Verbal" (non-penalty) warnings, both of which are recorded into the warning log.
If certain setting (vBulletin Options -> Warning System) of the hack is misconfigured, an error message will be displayed when you attempt to issue a new warning, thus preventing your database from potential corruption.
Each post can only be warned once.
A person may not issue a self-warning.
Verbal warnings are displayed with a "verbal" sign in the log in place of the points.
Information about an issued warning is automatically recorded into user's usernotes page. If a warning is deleted, the usernote is deleted too. The feature can be turned off if desired.
Information about an issued warning is automatically posted in the form of a new thread in a designated forum. The feature can be turned off if desired.
If a post has an attached warning, the brief warning details are displayed at the bottom of the post.
If a person a positive warning level, it is displayed in the posts and in the profile of that person.
Warned posts are automatically locked from any further modifications by their owners.
Warning history, once a user has one or more warnings, is available from the user's profile and from posts.
Members who have a permission to issue warning are unable to issue warnings to higher-standing usergroups (such as moderator -> supermoderator or supermoderator -> admin).
A sophisticated "who's online" handler that shows exactly what a user is doing in the front-end warning system.
Only those links to which the viewer has access are displayed. For example, a moderator will not see an "issue new warning" link on a supermoderor's post, but an administrator will.
Reputation Effect: Amount of reputation points that will be subtracted from the user's account until the warning expires or is revoked/deleted.
Reputation-Based Self-Revokation Capability: Each warning can be set to allow the end user to buy the warning out in exchange for a certain amount of reputation points.
Bonus! The following importer has been included into the package:
Inferno Warning System v1.3

INTRODUCTION
This hack includes a cron, which you do not need to manually add to your cron manager. The cron is added automatically for you once you install the product XML.
If you wish to import your warning data from another warning system, upload warn_import.php from ./do_not_upload/ to ./admincp/ and run it from your browser.
The installation manual is contained within the attached file.
1-The cron is not add automatically after installed the product XML.
Will fix.

2-Information about an issued warning is automatically posted in the form of a new thread in a designated forum. <----doesnt work. I have already set the correct forum ID as it need.
Then it's not the correct forum id.

You give warnings by clicking on the user's name in a post then clicking "issue warning". But first please set up usegroup permissions.
ok, when I go to usergroup manager, under Administrator I adjust the warning permissions all to yes and I get this?
(Does that warning have anything to do with my problem?)
Thanks
