More Functions in Edit Post if you are an Admin

Hi folks!

After my server has had problems last night, so the date was incorrect, an the posts had the dateline of October, I start programming this hack, to change a bit more of the Posting informations if you are an Admin of the board.

Now you can change
1. The Userid of this Post (don't know when, but perhaps you'll need it sometimes)
2. The Threadid of the Post (if you want to take this post to another thread)
3. Date and time postet
4. IP Address saved with the Post
5. can make post uneditable for original Author/Mods/Supermods (priority level system) or even editable to the author when timelimit is over...

If you like it Please click on install Button

Xenon,

How could I add this to the one you did for me a while back?

[ladyfyre]

you sooooo rock

[ladyfyre]

uh oh

Xenon...sorry to be a pain, but i just ran a full test with a standard registered member who was the author of the post, and it still gave them the 60 minute time limit error msg

@ladyfyre: you must have done something wrong, have tested it on my local board and it works as it should.
be sure you have this line in your template:

<input type="radio" name="editable" $editable[4] value="4">Author (no timelimit)|

@boofo: very easy: just change all 4 to 5 and all 5 to a 6 in the instructions i gave ladyfyre

Thanks Xenon this is a useful hack - I have clicked install ;-)

No, how can I edit the THREAD starter and THREAD date? Could you add that function?

The reason is I have a number of single-post threads I am uploading for historical reasons and want the original dates on them at top level. I can easily change post dates with your hack, but not thread dates - unless I'm missing something!

thanks

[Xenon]

well, after you editet the first posts' dates go to your Admincp, there go to update counters and there you find update threads

it will update the threadposter and the creation date

What query should i run to un edit the SQL table as i have uninstalled this hack.

Thanks
Matthew

i think it's
[sql]ALTER TABLE post DELETE editable[/sql]

but you shoul do this via PHPMyAdmin, it's more save

Hiya,

Everything works great except one thing ...
On the forum home page, the last post time does not update. Even in the actual forum, it does once you update counters => update threads.

Any solutions?
