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

I have this activated, and i move posts and threads.. and users gets a pm that the post/thread was moved and the new link to the bin forum..

  }
 } 


a thread move action to a "recyclebin forum" will appaer to the user like his thread whas deleted the pmed users will not know his thread still exists nor he / she will have have access to your recyclebin forum

Ah, ok i guess it works then, but could you make it for posts aswell?

that is not a bug actually

PHP Code:

die(print_r($pmdm->errors)); 


changed it a pm is always sended regardless if the system is disabled or the user pmbox is full

I always see this error:

Warning: in_array() [function.in-array]: Wrong datatype for second argument in [path]/includes/functions_modpm.php on line 19

When user disable his PM funtion, I can't delete or edit his post/thread.
