Administrative and Maintenance Tools - Advanced Warning System 3.6.7

Advaned Warning System

This is a port of aws and i release this with permission...(yes i did ask the original author)

This version of the warning includes

• 1 vbulletin 3.6.x product file (XML)
• 1 admincp navigation XML
• 1 functions file(functions_warning.php)
• 3 images
• 3 cronjobs
• 1 modcp file to allow moderators to view warnings information without having to give admincp access(mod_warn.php)
• 1 admincp file to manage the system options(admin_warn.php)
• 1 XML to control permissions(bitfield_aws.xml)

For a completer list of the system features you can refer to this

This version will also require vbulletin 3.6.x to run.If you run 3.5.x or any other release then 3.6.x you will see a message.

This system is tested for a long time and i believe it's stable enough for a public release HOWEVER since this is a major hack and i'm just human please consider this first public run still as "beta"

instructions ow howto install can be found in the docs directory within the zip

statistics

• 25 plugins
• 27 templates
• 5 new MySQL tables
• 3 standard vbulletin tables alterd (user,post,and usergroup)
• 827 phrases
• 47 settings

updates

A problem has been found where no link is provided to view your own warnings(normal users) in the member profile only i fixed this.To get the fix you will need to reedit your "MEMBERINFO" template and reimport product-aws.xml (set allow overwrite to yes)

People on PHP 5 can follow this instructions to avoid the PHP version related error message BUT remember you are on your own if you do this.I won't upgrade my PHP until PHP 5 is there main stable release (www.php.net)


1-1-2007
A bug has been reported in the system.This bug whas causing vbulletin to throw an error when you try to use admincp => users=> add a new user

Fatal error: Call to a member function clean_gpc() on a non-object in class_dm_user.php(2385) : eval()'d code on line 35

Solution

Edit plugin "AWS:warn link in usermanager" and replace all code with this

PHP Code:

$quicklinks["../Warn.php?" . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . "do=WarnUserNoPost&id=" . $vbulletin->GPC['userid']] = $vbphrase['aws_warn_user_admin']; 


i'll update the package when i get home


Another Bug is fixed

This release includes a fix for the problem "call to member function on a non object class_dm_user.php)" when you try to add a new user manaually (after submitting the form)

that space there between userid and lastactivity is normal it's because the big avatar ....also make sure to carefully follow the instructions regarding editing MEMBERINFO

I haven't gone through all the pages of comments in this thread (23 pages!) so I'll just post.

PHP 4 is at the end of life according to php.net:

================================================== ===========
PHP 4 end of life announcement

[13-Jul-2007] Today it is exactly three years ago since PHP 5 has been released. In those three years it has seen many improvements over PHP 4. PHP 5 is fast, stable & production-ready and as PHP 6 is on the way, PHP 4 will be discontinued.


The PHP development team hereby announces that support for PHP 4 will continue until the end of this year only. After 2007-12-31 there will be no more releases of PHP 4.4. We will continue to make critical security fixes available on a case-by-case basis until 2008-08-08. Please use the rest of this year to make your application suitable to run on PHP 5.

================================================== ===========

So I was just wondering if you'll be updating this to work with PHP5 "out of the box".

I've used this mod on older versions of vB and loved it.

I'm looking forward to using it again

Peace!

yeah i got that to i use there RSS feed at my site.Well i already removed the product depency that whas stopping that PHP 5 whas used.I updated my server to PHP 5.2.3 and the system is running just fine.I'm not exspecting any "move" troubles

I tried importing the new product with overwrite, but I received the following message:

The following dependencies were not met:

1. The product tms must be installed before this product may be installed. (Compatible starting with 1.0.0)

Edit: It seems in order to import the updated product, I needed to install this: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=152931

After updating to version 3.6.9, from version 3.6.8, the links in postbit and postbit_legacy are gone.

I didn't see anything in the upgrade.txt file.

Am I missing something?

Under "AWS version" in the options & Settings it still says version 3.6.8 too.

import templateedits-aws.xml using tms (found here)

So you're going to rely on TMS?

Too bad.

XML Error: syntax error at Line 1 when trying to import the xml file

EDIT:

Actually the file I was trying to use is a txt file, not an xml file. It's under the docs folder. I find no templateedits-aws.xml file with the download I used.

EDIT #2:

I found a templateedits-aws.xml under includes/xml and imported that...there are changes to the postbit and postbit_legacy, though TMS shows the edits were made...they are not displayed.

Even though my style was made for vB3.6.8 TMS has never worked and just complicates the entire process.

I have installed the latest version of AWS and manually updated the templates (TMS has never worked)

Am I missing something other than updating the mod and templates?

Is there a DB table to alter or something?

I am stumped as to why it is not working now.

I also have a problem in the Settings....

Under mailadress I get an error box because it is empty, even though the setting "use a custom mail from address ?" is set to "No". By inserting an email address the warning went away though.

Thanks for any help.

that setting about a custom email will display an error if the field is empty yes this is to avoid people try to confuse the system .... I don't know how you can "validate vBulletin settings based on the value of another setting"

if you cannot het the tms system to work you will have to do the templateedits by hand there are instructions on howto proceed in the docs folder.

hmmmz that templates work fine in here

The thing that changed is the table warning_types is changed to warningtype

and before you will see anything (eg the warnlinks or buttons) you must have at least one post & non post related warningtype.When these do not excist those things are hidden
