What does this hack do?
// ++++++++++++++
It allows your users to private text each other within a post.
It still maintains a regular post. but allows an option to private text other users.
You can choose which usergroupcs can add private text messages and which groups can see them.
But unless a usergroup is allowed to view no other user will be able to view it except the user recieving and the user posting.
Enjoy this hack It's really a good addition to keep things smart.
The usergroups options can be edited in the admin cp usergroup.php
And the private text length can also edited in the vbulletin options in admin cp under thread options.
The private text messages work with bbcode... smilies... and disables html etc... same as a regular message would work.
Also maintains the same image count... so if you have your image set at 5 per post and the user tries 3 in a post and 3 in the private text message they will get the images error
The private text messages can be edited the same way as a post, but when quoting they're bypassed.
Hopefully you'll enjoy this hack as much as i did making it If you like it please click on the install thanks [ g-force2k2 ]

Following Screenshot... Proximity (another s/n for me ) and me are having a private text conversation... as you can see from the guest shot they don't exist for the guest

Yet another screenshot same scenario if you look at the screenshots... Apocalypse (me again) and Proximity are conversing this time... in the last one from g-force2k2 perspective this conversation wasn't viewable

Finally last but not least another screenshot from my prospecitve... this time i have full access to see all private text messages as you can see by comparing my first one to this one

btw if you look a screenshot back or two you'll see that html was disabled within the private text messages... and that smilies were enabled

Enjoy everyone... comments... suggestions... etc

great hack man...

in my idea, this is more efficent than PMs because i rarely read my PMs

but it would look nice if you made the text for people that can see it like with a black background with white text so people can notice it

[g-force2k2]

yeah i think i might modify it to make it more regonizeable... and yes it can be used like a private message

btw you can also simply just edit the postbit_privtxt template and add color etc... whatever you like very simple to modify
