Administrative and Maintenance Tools - MODCP User Administration (renamed from Username/Usergroup Changes)

Nestaron's MODCP User Administration

This mod will allow for limited User Profile Edding changes in the MODCP. There are 6 options that can be set via the vBulletin Options/Settings:

Features:

1. Change Usernames
2. Change/Set Custom User Titles
3. Change Usergroups
4. Set Access Mask
5. View Current Access Mask

• Enables/Disables the product.
• Enable/Distable ModCP Index Page Search Box
  [*Protected Users - Set by entering userids, separate user with commas.
• Restricted Usergroups - Set by entering usergroupids, separate usergroups with commas. (default groups are Super Moderators, Administrators, Moderators, Banned Users).
• Usergroups Allowed to Use mod - Set by entering usergroupids, separate usergroups with commas. (default groups are Super Moderators & Administrators).
• Restricted Forums - This is for the access mask feature. Set by entering forumids, separate forums using commas.

Please mark installed to get support help.

Usergroup Restrictions: The default settings are going to be fine for a majority of sites. Upon install the following usergroups are restricted: Moderator, Administrator, Super Moderator & Banned Users.

It's important that the banned usergroup is included since this mod does not handle bans. There is no option to set a length or reason for bans via this mod. Moderators will still be able to ban via the normal MODCP ban user menu.

Installation Instructions:

1. Upload the files in the upload/modcp/ folder to the modcp folder on your site.
2. Import that product XML File via the AdminCP.
3. Set your options for restricted users and usergroups.
4. Set the CANVIEWPROFILE setting to YES for Moderator to Access this Mod, Set to NO to deny access to this mod.

Special note: Moderator setting of "Can View Whole Profile" is required for some features of this mod.

Special note (re: access mask): Super Moderators can no give themselves access to restricted forums. HOWEVER, if they already have an access mask set for a restricted forums they are able to change it. User Usergroup permissions to deny access to forums for Super Moderators instead of access mask.

This mod has been tested on versions 3.7.2 and 3.8.0 of vBulletin.
Report Bugs & request additions here or via PMs.

Version 1.1 Update: Fixed an issue where a Moderator could still assign a restricted group. If two or more additional groups are selected, including a restricted group the mod was able to assign the group. This has been fixed in the 1.1 update.

Version 1.2 Update:

• Added search form to ModCP index page. Option to turn this on/off in settings.
• Changed Permission to use a vb option setting for who can use this mod. The "canviewprofile" setting is still required; However, now you can set "canviewprofile" to yes for people who you don't want to use this mod without giving them the ability to change user settings.
• Cleaned up phrases and error messages.

Version 1.3 Update:

• Consolidated User Editor Form to include both usergroups, username and title edits.
• Added Access Mask Control.
• Fixed several permission check issues
• Added more settings in vb Options.
• Cleaned up phrases, consolidated forms & update code.

I'll have an update sometime next week that will add the ability to allow mods to set access mask. There will also be a redesign of the username/usergroup forum which will also add the custom title field.

After this update unless there are bug fixes I will be working on other projects for the site I originally created this mod. I'll probably get back to this in a month or so and probably add a few other features at that time.

Yeah, I think that will need some work to do, and that will be just what a lot of people looking for, as I see in vb.com there are a lot of requests about that.
super moderators should have the ability to nominate forum moderators without via MODCP without loging-in to ADMINCP.

thanks for looking into my request and appreciate your work.

That's all I want a super moderator do.
Thank you, nestaron.

PS. Protected Users option doesnt work regular. I tested it on a test supermod and even I prevented changes moderators group, a test supermod could change it.

Nice! Thanks.

As a future request, would it possible to have it so that you can have set user groups controlling different moveable groups?

eg;
If user is in group x, can change usergroups a, b, c.
If user is in group y, can change usergroups a, d, e etc.

What exactly could they change? I'm about to upload a update but if there is a bug I'd like to fix it before I upload the new changes.

the test super mod cant change the root admin's username and group, thats Okay but he can change the mods' names and usergroups, also he can move a user to super moderators group.
Thats why, I changed the vbulletin options/nestoran mod settings as I want but it didnt work. I think there is a mistake on vb options/nestoran settings.

Version 1.2

I love this! I waited for a plugin like that so the usergroup can only edit a persons usergroup... Thanks! Possible you can serperate the "Access Mask" though with an option so the user can / cannot use this function?

Version 1.3 Update:

• Consolidated User Editor Form to include both usergroups, username and title edits.
• Added Access Mask Control.
• Fixed several permission check issues
• Added more settings in vb Options.
• Cleaned up phrases, consolidated forms & update code.

Love it
Everything is ok now.
Thank you, nestaron

I'm so gonna love this plugin, awesome thanks! VB really needs enhanced features of what people can or can't do. I wonder if you are able to add specific access of specific people able to edit description of forums / sections rather than editing the whole section of what it can or can't do. Mostly this user is asking for access so he can edit description for events. But I don't want him able to edit the whole section. But then again, this is user administration plugin.. Not outside it ^^.
