Private Messages Enhancements - Read Your Members Private Messages (v1.2)

First of all, I take no credit for this hack as its original coding and design is product of Scott And Xiphoid as shown in:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=59617

This hack is merely a bug fix and feature fix, as when I originally used the script I noticed a lot of small visual problems as well as misc other things.

Lots of the linking was a bit messed up, when you read peoples PM's you couldnt tell who they were from, it only shown who they were to etc.. Just a lot of stuff, I added who they were sent from, and sent to and clicking on the names take your to Their inbox instead of their userinfo section in the Admin Panel etc..

So yes, they get all the credit, I just thought people would want the bug fixed version. If scott or xiphoids wants to take this thread down, and stick the script in their original thread - fine by me.

Enjoy, and thanks you for making it first, lol.

Ok guys calm down This guy is sharing his work so lets thank him for that. The point is you need to ask permission for things like this and installers install mods at their own risk I'll get back to you...

Here's an addon:

In admincp/user.php

find:

"user.php?$session[sessionurl]do=remove&userid=$userid"
				=> $vbphrase['delete_user'],

and put this underneath that:

"pm.php?userid=$userid"
				=> $vbphrase['view_user_pm'],

and then add a new phrase, 'view_user_pm' that says "View Private Messages".

This will add the VIEW PRIVATE MESSAGES option to the pulldown at the top when viewing a user in the admincp.

Good addition

Sorry if I caused any of you some sort of mental breakdown, lol.. I hardly think Scott or Xiphoid cares as this category is....very bare with not many hacks, so I didnt think it would be that big of a deal to populate it with a new thread of a bugfix and feature addition.

Generally I would certainly do that before modifying a popular and well used hack, IF i was using the code to make something of my own. In this case Im not doing this as crediting the script to me, Im just making a bugfix to their current script because they havent done them, and as I stated before it can be taken down if it offends either of the two.

Thats all I have to say about this, no hard feelings anyone.

You guys are a bunch of retards. Calm down.

Great additions Trigunflame !! Definately needed an update . . .

/me clicks install.

Jesus, the guy did say in his post he is not taking credits for that. He is merely contributing to the community.

There is nothing wrong if someone wants to improve.

No offense to the original coders or to the bug fixer here (all of whom I'm sure did a fine job), but I have to give this hack thumbs down just on principle. Why would anyone be reading their member's private messages? aranoid:

You may want to read the 10+ pages discussing it on the original release in the 2.2 section or the 3.0 release in this section....I originally requested it a long time ago and many people find it useful for MANY different reasons.
