After some requests and a debate in the requests forum I've finally finished the majority of this hack. It allows the admin to find a user via the current method in the control panel then click view user's pm's. They are then shown all the pm's in the users folders.

Includes admin logging and is designed to use the cp.css file which is already used by the control panel. I considered adding a search feature but it would be hard without indexing all of the pm's the way vBulletin already does. This means it would be a very limited search.
You can also now select which admins can view user pm's this is done the same way that restriction to the adminlogging is done, the variable is at the top of pm.php

This hack involves uploading pm.php to the admin directory then following the instructions which requires you adding the two links within /admin/user.php

Updated 25th November 2001 @ 22:39

Update was to fix broken smilies by disabling them and to show pm's in all folders not just the inbox. To update simply upload pm.php to your admin folder again.

Worked perfectly with no modifications needed for 2.26.

Question for you though.

I want to make it so the link "Read PM's" doesn't even show up if your not the userid specified in the pm.php

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to do this?

Thanks

Josh

Viewing is already restricted within the pm.php file so there is not much point in doing what you suggest. It also limits it to one user instead of just editing who can use it in config.php

yes PPN but if i remember correctly is the link restricted? because that its what i believe the person was asking for

Even though Bira hasn't been around for a while, I just read his posts (I think its a him). Anway, he raised many good points. Which is why I wouldn't install this hack. If the need arises, I'll use phpmyadmin.

I couldn't aggree more with Bira on ever post he posted..
