Moderators Functions - FractalizeR: Show items, awaiting moderation in notifications area

What does it do?
This hack shows all items, that require moderation in a notifications area. Items are grouped by type:

• Threads
• Posts
• Group messages
• Visitor messages
• Picture comments
• Album pictures
• Users
• Calendar events

Clicking on a group redirects you to a moderation panel for that type of items.

You can also restrict, what usergroups can see notifications and what items you want to appear in notifications

Russian localization included.

How to install?

1. Install *.xml file via Admin Control Panel (Product management)

Files description:

• product-fr_notifymoditems.xml - main product XML. English localization included.
• vbulletin-language-ru.xml - russian localization. Import as a language overwritting russian.

You'll probably have better luck getting help from Scanu - than Fractilizer
- mark it as installed - vote it up and post the question in his thread
- and I'm sure a donation never hurts

Anyone with a solution?

Well there is a difference between the vB4 and vB3 versions which involves the slash
Could you be using the wrong version for your forum?

============================
vB4 version:

'visitormessage' => array(
'link' => $vbulletin->options['bburl'] . '/' . trim($vbulletin->config['Misc']['modcpdir'], '/') . '/moderate.php?do=messages',
'total' => 0

==============================
vB3 version:
'visitormessage' => array(
'link' => $vbulletin->options['bburl'] . '/' . $config['Misc']['modcpdir'] . '/moderate.php?do=messages',
'count' => 0
==================================

I have vb 3.8.7 and I use the version for vb3 :/

[Bluemax712]

Does the built-in one in the ACP for checking awaiting messages work right?

[Terrablade]

Built in in ACP works fine..
The other options in fractalizer works fine. Just that one gives problems

[Bluemax712]

ok - just checking - that is weird

I see from the vB3 thread others had this same problem - have you tried manually editing that line in the xml file and reimporting

I believe the original version of this mod, depending on the options to show, showed a notification for all items listed in the moderation queue. This is regardless if the user can handle the items in the queue.

This attachment limits this view to threads / replies in which a moderator can handle it. The other options were not adjusted as it is not a focus for us. If the user is considered as a super moderator or above, then all threads / replies in the queue are included in the notifications count.

Thanks for this mod.
