09 July 2005 UPDATE: Changegroup.php reworked for security

Thanks to boy genius KirbyDE this file has been reworked to secure that users who aren't already in your selected groups cannot be changed by your mods (with a check on attempted overrides).

To update, simply upload the new changegroup.php file in the zip to your /modcp/ directory. No other changes/modifications need to be made.

Please post if there are any problems!

08 May 2004 UPDATE: Modified file for error reported in post #16

Please download the new file and replace the old one with it. Post if there are any problems!

######################################

Hi all!

Here is the deal with this hack. We have usergroups set up with various permissions, mostly based on limiting their functions if they abuse their rights as a member (limiting them from certain forums, putting them under moderation, etc...).

Our mods need to be able to move our members into (and out of) these restricted groups rather than banning them, but at the same time, they should not be able to move members into (or out of) the mod, admin, waiting for confirmation groups, etc...

NOTE: Banned Groups are NOT touched in this hack -- this is for all groups OTHER than those addressed by the banning function as I wanted to keep that seperate!


What this hack does:

  • Add a token to each usergroup that the admin can set to say 'yes' or 'no' that the mods can move users into and out of the group.
  • Adds a token on the mod permissions level -- super mods can change allowable groups by default, and regular mods can only make these changes if you assign it on a mod by mod basis.
  • Adds the functionality to the ModCP for the mods to make the changes.
Changes that need to be made:

Phrases to add: 5

PHP file edits:
  • admincp/usergroup.php (1 change)
  • admincp/moderator.php (1 change)
  • includes/init.php (2 changes)
  • modcp/user.php (4 changes)
New PHP file:
  • changegroup.php (attached in this zip -- upload to your modcp folder)
Included in this zip:
  • Modification .txt file
  • changegroup.php
  • Screenies!
The screen shots below are of the ACP -- adding the tokens to the Usergroup and giving permissions to the mods.

Enjoy, and as always, if anyone has any constructive feedback, or needs any help, post away.

This means that either the source or destination Usergroup is not a modifiable Usergroup, check your Usergroup settings.

Ok that got it licked thanks Kirby

Side Question: If I wanted this hack to change only the Display group, how and where would I need to edit it?

You know, this IS a nice hack. However, I wouldn't be using vbulletin's bitfields... Also, you gonna port it for 3.5.1? If yes, I suggest you rework the way you store usergroup information

Is there a version of this to work with 3.6.x? How much tweaking would be needed to modify it to?
