Moderators Functions - Moderation Auto-PM v3.0.1

hi Folks,

This is a port of this for vBulletin 3.0.3 (long time ago)

I ported it to vBulletin 3.5.4 with the permission of the original author here

i see user requested it for vBulletin 3.7.3 here

so this hack does

• send a pm to the threadstarter upon moderation actions
• The pm content is completely phrased to allow easy translation for people not running an english board
• the pm automatically comes from the moderator who actually performes the moderation(if you leave the setting forthis blank)
• no pm when a user edits / deleted his own threads / posts
• support for the inlinemod system

this hack does not

• send an email instead of a pm
• split thread / posts not supported

Installation:

upload all *.php files to /includes
import the product xml (set allow overwrite to yes if you are updating from a previous version) There are three setting groups look under vbulletin options -> modpm_*

that's it

This version is not working in 4.0.x.

I have version for 4.0.x but this mod use some part's form oryginal Moderation Auto-PM v3.0.1.

Author don't won't put this mod in vbulletin.org, because he thing that violate copyright terms.

What exactly copyright terms it violates? Original mods does not contain any restrictions on republication or derivation. If you mention, that your work is based on some other work and the original author has not restricted that, so far it is ok, I think. Also you can contact original authors and ask their permission.

I would also like to see a version for 4.0. It is very useful addon.

[meschiash]

I have info that mod for 4.0.x will be back soon.

[FractalizeR]

That would be great because I don't know how will I live without it having moved to 4.x

[user02934123123]

Agreed.... it is definitely a much needed 4.0 mod. The sooner the better!
