Moderators Functions - Moderator Checkpoint System

Moderator Checkpoint System

For boards with a large moderating staff, it can be difficult to know who has checked what post and which threads are completely checked. The goal of the Moderator Checkpoint System is to ensure that moderators don't read over the same post(s) twice, leaving them to spend this time checking other posts/threads.

The core functionality of the Moderator Checkpoint System (MCS) is the ability (for those with appropriate permission) to mark threads/posts as having been "Checked" - indicating that no further action is required and the thread(s)/post(s) has/have been given the OK by a Staff Member. When a post is marked as checked, the checking user's User ID, Username, and a timestamp is stored in the database. This information then appears on the checked post(s), and the post will change markup (depending on your customizations through the included options) indicating the post has been checked. This process is, of course, completely invisible to the community at-large, and only those Users with adequate permission will be allowed to Check/Uncheck and view Checked posts/threads.

Because some Moderators may like to browse forums normally, a feature has been integrated that will allow each user to Enable/Disable viewing the forum in "Moderation Mode" at their leisure. Disabling Moderation Mode will return the display of posts/threads to their normal state.

Features

• Forumdisplay
  • Threads can be (Admin Optional) colored according to whether they are completely checked -OR- contain unchecked posts.
  • A new column next to "Views" will display the number of Unchecked Posts in each thread.
  • Clicking the "Unchecked" column's header will allow the user to sort threads by the least/most number of unchecked posts, allowing them to see which threads need the most attention.
  • Threads can be (Admin Optional) marked as "Checked", thereby checking ALL the posts in a thread. This is useful for large, old threads which you know contain no problem posts.
• Showthread
  • Posts can be (Admin Optional) colored according to whether they have been checked -OR- remain to be checked.
  • Checked posts will display the Date/Time they were Checked and the Moderator Username/User ID who checked it. (Unchecked posts will have text indicating as much)
  • Posts can be marked as Checked/Unchecked via Inline Moderation.
  • "Active Checking" is utilized.
    • Active Checking is a feature which each User can Enable/Disable at their leisure. When Active Checking is Enabled, each time the User visits a thread, the posts displayed on that page will be marked as "Checked". The idea is that when in Active Checking mode, the User is actively reviewing the posts that they are reading, thus each can be marked as Checked.
  • Newly Checked Posts can be (Admin Optional) colored to indicate their recent activity. This coloring is visible only to the Checking User and is intended to serve as a guide for them to see which posts they, in their current session, have checked.
• Update Counters
  • If you ever feel your counters (Unchecked Count per Thread) are off, there is an Update Counters feature included in the modification. To access this feature, go to your AdminCP -> Maintenance (Very bottom) -> Update Counters -> Update Checkcount Counters (Very bottom).

[my evil twin]

i'm not kirk, but it is in "threadbit" or "postbit", i think....


threadbit:

FIND: <td class="alt1" id="td_threadtitle_$thread[realthreadid]" title="$thread[preview]">

REPLACE WITH: <td class="alt1" <if condition="$mcpcolor['forumdisplay']">style="background-color:$vboptions[mc_bgcolor_fd];" </if>id="td_threadtitle_$thread[realthreadid]" title="$thread[preview]">

or

postbit:

FIND: <td class="alt1" id="td_post_$post[postid]">

REPLACE WITH: <td class="alt1" id="td_post_$post[postid]"<if condition="($mcpcolor['showthread'] OR $show['mcsrecent']) AND $inmodmode"> style="background-color:$mcscolor;"</if>>

sometimes custom themes do have custom id's in it, so replace doesn't work. just go and do a search for "alt1", it's pretty easy to find and self-explanatory i think

Thank You, but that doesn't help me. To be honest, I don't know what to do.
Maybe you or someone else could take a look at my code.

Excellent mod and something that was needed.

But there is something more. Sometimes users edit the post and change the content of the message. If a moderator mark as checked this post and the original post was good for the rules, when the user change the content the post doesn’t checked again and still remain as checked.

So it will be better on edits by the user, the post marked again as unchecked so the moderator knows what exactly changed after the first check.

Also something else. When a moderator, admin post a new thread is good to be in Checked mode, I don’t think that my moderators broke the rules , also an override for some UserGroups will be pleased.

Thanks.

By the way, the mod working fine on v3.6.4.

Sorry for this if is too much.

I talk with my moderators and they use this mod for a little and says me 2 more suggestions.

First, if is possible to make an Ajax button that checks or uncheck the message without reload, and not only from the Moderation list.

Also, in search feature, if is possible to works as “search.php?do=getnew”, and to show the complete unchecked posts not the threads, as the advanced search option “Show Results as Posts”. And if you can show only the posts that they can moderate not the complete forum. So this will be useful for moderators that they want to check only the messages that are on the area that they have the rights for moderating.

Thanks you again for this useful mod.

This was a waste of my time, because, appearantly, this didn't work. I did everything correctly and it still didn't work. Anyways, private message me if you would like to help me on this because I won't memorize this thread, Lol.

Did you go to Admin CP-->Forums & Moderators-->Show All Moderators and on [Edit Permissions] check the Moderator Checkpoint Permissions Options to Yes.

If you already have modarators, because the public rights is all to No you can use this link to change the global rights.

yoursite/admincp/moderator.php?do=editglobal&u=XXXXX

as XXXXX the UserID

for example for admin yoursite/admincp/moderator.php?do=editglobal&u=1
