Request - Private Message Hack

[Rose]

PPN - G-force is correct. I want to restrict Usergroup 10 to only received pm's from other members in usergroup 10. No one else (admin would be nice, but not necessary).

G-Force - still the same problem - usergroup10 can see their new pm's in the user cp, but not access anything.

okay thats it >_O im breaking it out on my forum now please excuse me... be back shortly regards...

oh btw that politely bumps was funny

okay one last time... open private.php

find:

PHP Code:

    if (!$touserinfo['receivepm'] or !$touserinfo['canusepm']) { 


above it add:

PHP Code:

$info = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT usergroupid FROM user WHERE userid='$touserinfo[userid]'");
if($bbuserinfo[usergroupid] == 10) {
  if($info[usergroupid] != 10) {
    eval("standarderror(\"".gettemplate('error_pmrestricted')."\");");
    exit;
  }
}
if($bbuserinfo[usergroupid] != 10) {
  if($info[usergroupid] == 10 AND $bbuserinfo[usergroupid] != 6) {
    eval("standarderror(\"".gettemplate('error_pmrestricted')."\");");
    exit;
  }
} 


Hopefull that'll do the trick regards.... sorry for the long time it took x_X

Could always try

PHP Code:

  if(($bbuserinfo['usergroupid'] == 10 and $touserinfo['usergroupid'] != 10) or ($touserinfo['usergroupid'] == 10 and $bbuserinfo['usergroupid'] != 6)) {
    eval("standarderror(\"".gettemplate('error_pmrestricted')."\");");
    exit;
  }

I'm still getting the "usergroup 10" members "do not have permission to acces this page" error.

edited to say: abovemessage for g-force


will try ppn's now.

[Rose]

And samething with ppn's too. Maybe something else needs to be done, or I'm getting the wrong editing?

I've got no access in usergrup 10, but I can see new messages in the user cp.

Rose did you place it under the code i gave you? because the first place was incorrect on the first page... regards...

btw PPN i was trying to make it as simple as possible... how could i have just used the $touserinfo query to select the usergroup? because it doesn't select the usergroup... wouldn't it have to be a LEFT JOIN? regards...

G-Force, I took all modifications out fromt his thread and simply did what you said in your most recent modification post - placing the code above the "if (!$touserinfo['receivepm'] or !$touserinfo['canusepm']) {" Did Imisunderstand somewhere?

I will be back tomorrow. And thanks again for helping!!!

[g-force2k2]
