Recipients (PM)

[SiSoft]

Hi,
I want to disable receiving PMs to some members who have specific values in some users fields
But I can't find the right variables to do that, can any one help me ?

Thank you.

You could do something like this: create a plugin using hook pmdata_presave and code like:

PHP Code:

foreach ($this->info['recipients'] as $u)
{
    $user = fetch_userinfo($u['userid']); // Note: need to do this because $this->info['recipients'] does not contain profile fields
    if (some check of fields in $user)
    {
        $this->errors[] = "Can't send PM to user " . $user['username'];
    }
}

Thanks a lot it works, but I have just a little problem, when I do an If condition on both user's fields (the sender & the reciever) it doesn't work
like

PHP Code:

if($vbulletin->userinfo['field1']=="XX"){
foreach ($this->info['recipients'] as $u){
    $user = fetch_userinfo($u['userid']); // Note: need to do this because $this->info['recipients'] does not contain profile fields
    if ($user['field1']=="YY")
    {
        $this->errors[] = "Can't send PM to user " . $user['username'];
    }
}
}

You should probably do something like this:

$fromuserid = intval($this->fetch_field('fromuserid'));
$fromuser = fetch_userinfo($fromuserid);
if(is_array($fromuser) AND $fromuser['field1']=="XX"){
// etc

I'm pretty sure the $fromuser will always be equivalent to $vbulletin->userinfo, but the rest of the pm datamanager code is written without making that assumption, so it's probably best to stay with that.
