If someone has some coding experience I would like a hack that would allow admins to write comments in posts so only other admins could see. For example:

Admin posts:
"Welcome users blah .blah. blah.
/* Commented area that only admins can see */"

Also the ability to,
User posts:

"[Some Flame]
/* Admin comments in to other admins not to delete this thread */"

I think this has been asked for before, be wonderful if someone could make it. If you wanted at add in a feature that would change the color to like red or yellow of the commented text that would be great. Maybe the ability for users to leave comments for the admins in their posts too.

Thanks in Advance

hmm, you can use the hidden post hack by firefly so admins/mods can post posts which just they can see

I looked at that hack the only problem with it is it throws the post into moderation so ya theres a problem there because I use post moderation on my site.

Why are Admin's posts Moderated?

No no, it will put the hidden posts into the moderation and an admin or mod can set them to visible in the mod/admin panels. Then users can read them. For the most part they appear the same as users with posts being moderated and hidded admin posts, confusing the mods when verifying posts.

I see...

I know that Xenon is working / or was working on a newer version of that hack...Perhaps he could tell you more...

I'm back

anything done with this? anyone looked at it?

Xenon · #8 03-16-2003, 01:15 PM

sorry, haven't done anything with it.

but with vb3 there could be an easy way.
vb3 also stores deleted posts which are just shown to admins/mods, so you can delete posts just for that issue

Did Firefly release a hidden post hack?

Yes, it's called "Post posts in threads and only allow mods to read em"

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
