FAQ

1. How do I configure what forum report threads should go to?
   At the top of userpage.php, there are several clearly documented variables that you can edit. One of these establishes the forumid that you want reported pages to be reported to.

Hmmm ... since build_new_post is called to build the new post, looking in functions_newpost.php we find a check for moderators:

PHP Code:

        $dataman->set('visible', 0);
        $post['visible'] = 0;
    }
    else
    {
        $dataman->set('visible', 1);
        $post['visible'] = 1;
    } 


Unless the user is a moderator, the thread seems to go into moderation.

Here's a not so pretty solution, but it prevents the thread from being moderated:

in userpage.php FIND:

PHP Code:

build_new_post('thread', $foruminfo, array(), array(), $newpost, $errors); 


REPLACE with:

PHP Code:

                 $db->query("   INSERT INTO " . TABLE_PREFIX . "thread(title, lastpost, forumid, open, replycount,
                                postusername, postuserid, lastposter, dateline, iconid, visible, attach)
                                VALUES
                                        ('".addslashes($newpost['title'])."', " . TIMENOW . ", $forumid,1, 0, '" . addslashes($vbulletin->userinfo['username']) . "',
                                         ".$vbulletin->userinfo['userid'].",'" . addslashes($vbulletin->userinfo['username']) . "', " . TIMENOW . ", 0, 1,
                                         0)
                        ");
                $thread['threadid'] = $db->insert_id();
                $db->query("
                        INSERT INTO " . TABLE_PREFIX . "post
                                (threadid, title, username, userid, dateline, pagetext, allowsmilie,
                                 showsignature, iconid, visible)
                        VALUES
                                ($thread[threadid], '".addslashes($newpost['title'])."',
                                 '" . addslashes($vbulletin->userinfo['username']) . "', ".$vbulletin->userinfo['userid'].", " . TIMENOW . ",
                                 '$message', 1, 1,0, 1)
                ");
                $post['postid'] = $db->insert_id();
                $db->query("
                                UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "thread
                                SET firstpostid = $post[postid]
                                WHERE threadid = $thread[threadid]
                        ");
                $db->query("
                                UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "forum
                                SET replycount = replycount +  1,
                                threadcount = threadcount + 1,
                                lastpost = " . TIMENOW . ",
                                lastposter = '" . addslashes($vbulletin->userinfo['username']) . "',
                                lastthread = '".addslashes($newpost['title'])."',
                                lastthreadid = $thread[threadid]
                                WHERE forumid = $forumid
                        ");

no i sure havent. i saaw the suggested file edit a few posts before this one...but im trying to avoid any further file edits (added a couple of small ones to improve things personally).

for now, i just made my mods moderators of the forum i designated that the reports go to. hopefully amy will be able to provide a fix that does not involve editing stock vB files.

Me neither. I upgraded to 3.5.1 and even after rebuilding bitfields (yes that xml file is still in includes/xml), I still don't get usergroup options for this mod.

On 3.5.0 I *did* get usergroup options but I don't think that other people could view each others' pages; only their own.

[Parture]

These user pages are driving me coocoo. I upgraded to 3.5.1 and reverted templates. It does not let you install installuserpages.php again, and creates a database error. It looks like a different error from when I tried to install it in 3.50. I would not be able to get back onto my forum if it wasn't for the product which I installed quickly after that.

It does let you reinstall installuserpage.php. So I reinstalled. But in Usergroups the 4 choices are blank. Resetting a phrase and doing the bitfields thing doesn't help. So I installed the product on page 27. That doesn't bring up the 4 choices either, just blanks. I can uninstall the product, but I am unable to uninstall installuserpage.php. I really don't understand this. All I know is I have tried every combination and nothing works. I would just like to have a userpage, but I can't get the 4 choice to show up in User Groups.

What do I do now?

[waza]

I found the bug in the installuserpage.php, fixed it and did a reinstall, but after reinstall, it still doesn't work, so we'll have to wait till a fix comes out.

[CyberRanger]

I'd like to enlarge the editing window used when a user is creating or editing a page. Can anyone point me to what I'd need to change?

Yup, i've pretty much gone through the exact same process and tried a few other things on top and no matter what I do, it won't show the usergroup options for me either. >.<

Baffled why this is happening to be honest.

[waza]

In the announcement of 351 they say:
usergroup permissions must be linked to a product.
But if i tought the usergroup permissions of the userpages where linked to product: vbulletin...

[o1dirtydog]

can't wait for this to get all the issues worked out. could possibly be one of the best mods in a long time.
