conditional won't work together but work's split up?

[sabret00the]

Let's see what can happen:
- I am the poster, and i have rights to edit. The above is NOT true, so no error msg. correct and working as intended
- I am the poster, and i have NO rights to edit. The above is NOT true (the first part of the condition is false), so no error msg. incorrect should see error message
- I am NOT the poster, and i have rights to edit. The above is NOT true, so no error msg. correct and working as intended
- I am the NOT poster, and i have NO rights to edit. The above is true, so i get a no permission page. correct and working as intended

I guess what we want here is that a moderator (spelling mistake in the permission??) can always edit, no matter if he made the post himself. If not combined with other conditions this would be ok. But now let's see what happens if we combine: correct so far

PHP Code:

( !($postinfo['userid'] == $bbuserinfo[userid] AND $grps_permissions['groupspostedit']) AND (!$grps_permissions['groupsmoderater'])) 


here i'm lost because, a user should be able to edit their own posts without being a moderator, however a moderator should be able to edit any post without being the original poster, but your code says they can't be a moderator?

so bascially let me try and do this in conditionals to try and explain myself

PHP Code:

if ($postinfo[userid == $bbuserinfo[userid])
{
$allow_edit = TRUE;
}

if ($grps_permissions[groupspostedit] == TRUE)
{
$allow_edit2 = TRUE;
}

if (!$allow_edit and !$allow_edit2)
{
print_no_permission;
}
else
{
echo "edit screen";
} 


but because we want mods to be able to edit posts two, we have to make sure you're not a moderator so

PHP Code:

if ((!$allow_edit and !$allow_edit2) OR ($user_is_moderator == FALSE)
{
print_no_permission;
}
else
{
echo "edit screen";
}
