Staff can Post hidden Posts · **Released**: 05-07-2004

If you have installed that Hack by Chen, you will already know what this Hack does.
If not i'll shortly explain: If you install this hack, your staff will be able to post hidden posts, which are just visible by other staffmembers. This can be usefull, if you are not sure, what to do with a thread, and want feedback by the other mods.

I have to say, that this is not an easy hack, so do not install it, if you are not familar with vB hacking, as i won't give much support.
I have put the basic instructions into the Installfile, which does everything needed.
The instructions in the advanced install file, are for those who have already installed this hack, and want to get some more features (like number of new hidden posts in the navbar and such things).

Have fun, we always have

nice signature text

yep, this hack will definitelly be ported to 3.5, as we need it for vb.org as well, but not before gold.

Glad you like my work

the vb 3.5 version will be easier to install i expect, i already have some things in mind how i could make it easier, but won't apply em to 307 i tihnk.

I very much look forward to it.

One question, though your released mod will probably answer it. You had two versions. A simple Staff Can Post Hidden Posts and you also have an extension to this hack with some advanced features. Will you be conbining the two into a kind of super mod?

Xenon · #**166** 07-17-2005, 03:35 PM

hmm, i think so.

it depends on how much code edits are needed in vb3.5

the advanced version was just because it got too big to just release all in one, for those not comfortable in big hacking processes

Great hack, thanks much!

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
