Ok, another one of my vb2 Hacks has been ported over and Optimized
This hack allows mods and Admins to restrict the edit permissions on a levelbased system.
Admins can disallow everyone to edit that post, while mods just can restrict editing by the author. Supermods can restrict editing by normal moderators as well.
Admins also have additional features:
- Editing the Timestamp of that Post
- Editing the Author
- Editing the IP
Nothing more to explain i think, look at the screenies if you need more infos.
Please don't forget to click install

Xenon: How could I integrate this with the other Editing Hierarchy Hack...
What I mean, is that the hierarchy's from your other take presedence over these ones, unless the post is edited...
So basically, with the other hack, a Super Mod cannot edit an Admins post with the default Hierarchy - You could alter the hierarchy with this hack, which would mean you could set it so that Super Mods upwards can edit it
Could this be done?
Satan
Questions: 1) Where on earth is "install"?? and how do you hit it? And secondly, how come even normal users can see this advanced edit option?
Ok - I think the user being able to edit was a cacheing issue. All seems fine now. But still questioning "install"?
Ug....I give up - it works fine on most forums but if I take the date before today on one forum it disappears from the thread list, if I then set it back to today or in the future it starts showing on list again. This forum has a custom style. But so does another forum that also uses the hack....anyone got any ideas on this? Thanks.
Thanks again for this extremly useful mod! working like a charm on 3.03.
We have a separate photo gallery that our members upload to and I need to use this a lot to post links and details on behalf of members who upload pics and don't get around to writing about their pics in the forums.
Also very handy for moving posts from a now defunct yahoogroup, and changing the timestamp and username.
And great for re-ordering posts in linear threads.
I need to try it for re- ordering stickies.
One drawback is that I can only make these changes during an edit, which means that I first need to submit the post in my username, ( with a comment - "posted on behalf of xxxusername") then I edit username, remove the comment, and all is roses.
I could post/prepare the message in a private forum, then move it over, but this way it doesn't seem to activate as a new post unless I reply to the post.
(This has to do with moving posts/threads from forum to forum, nothing to do with this mod)
I can't imagine it would be possible with this mod to change the username before posting, and it's fine because I am able to get the task done.

Nope, sorry that's not possible, as this would need a change in newreply/newthread.php and then it wouldn't have anything to do with Editing anymore and therefore would be an extra hack
