Staff can Post hidden Posts · **Released**: 05-07-2004

If you have installed that Hack by Chen, you will already know what this Hack does.
If not i'll shortly explain: If you install this hack, your staff will be able to post hidden posts, which are just visible by other staffmembers. This can be usefull, if you are not sure, what to do with a thread, and want feedback by the other mods.

I have to say, that this is not an easy hack, so do not install it, if you are not familar with vB hacking, as i won't give much support.
I have put the basic instructions into the Installfile, which does everything needed.
The instructions in the advanced install file, are for those who have already installed this hack, and want to get some more features (like number of new hidden posts in the navbar and such things).

Have fun, we always have

Well, i have added the instructions to show up different, but its up to you, how different it will be

Great! I've been waiting for this.

When they try to quote a hidden post, it will work like it does here and not quote it right? And can you tell me (in PM maybe) how to add it to the Quick Reply box, too?

Thanks for this, sir.

You should be able to use the same condition raped around the quote & quick reply buttons

Code:

<if condition="$post[visible] == 0 and $thread[threadid] > 0"> </if>

I want to be able to use the quick reply with a hidden post, just not have it quote the hidden post.
