MAF: (Moderator Application Form & Application Rating Module)

FAQ:
What Does It Do? it enables your members to apply to be a mod, cuts down on all the asking and stuff

That It? basically

What about the cool back end? ooh yeah, so anyway it will email on the 14th day to either let em know they've been shortlisted or to try again at a later date

How will it know? mod ratings innit, if their under 7 their outta there

Anything else? nah i guess it starts a thread in your mod forum to tell your mods to rate em

How does it know what forum and who's the threadster? you tell em via the admincp options (where the rest of the vboptions are) theirs a handy little group for the MAF and i don't mean 2+2

Ok so that's gotta be it now? nope

What else does it do? it logs it all in the admincp schedules tasks and sends you a copy of the email

Damn who taught you all that? various folks, special thanks to Dean, Marco, OBK and Zero Tolerance who helped me on this specific hack though.

Ok so what's the install like? swift the long thing is the upload

Ok rumour is it needs to run a cron, what's a cron? :squint: it's the automated do-dad in the admincp

How do i set it up? it's so straight forward you could close your eyes and do it, the file you're cronning is called "maf-cron.php" and i recommend running it at 12.30 (that means leave the rest as stars)

Ok so if their an installer? there is indeed thanks to Link and his magical HIS

Well now that's sorted can i install it? please do!

How can i help you become cooler? click install and let's see if i can become hack of the month innit

Bye now? yes go :ermm:











So you heard their was an upgrade and you're wondering just what you have to do right? simply reupload all the files (not including your cron if you wanna be special and then just run the installer, if that gives you trouble just click overrite original settings, all it's gonna do it reinstall the phrases, reinstall the templates and tell you the two file mods to remake.


So you heard their was an upgrade this time around? simply reupload all the files (if you wanna pretend to be uber 1337 just upload the admincp file and the cron folder file)

Invalid SQL:

I´m new about this but what shuld I put to the cron file????

and don't forget to set up a cron to run once daily (you will need to configure your cron on line 10, this requires a manual edit of the file before upload)

When rating an applicant, there's apparantly a missing phrase..
[high]Could not find phrase 'Applicant Rated Successfully Moderated'.[/high]

[sql]DROP TABLE `maf_application`;
'DROP TABLE `maf_ratings`;[/sql]

open the files ROOT/forums/includes/cron/maf_cron.php in a text editor and you should see the line that's in need of configuring.
