Note: Development of this hack has stopped.
The built-in version is far superior to this hack and has better controls and permission checking. For those of you who will remain on 3.0.x, I will try to support this hack as best I can, but it won't be a top priority. If you plan on moving to 3.5, I hope this hack made your life a little bit easier while you waited .
Current Version: 1.2.1 (Wed Dec 11 15:26:30 PDT 2004)
What this is?
This hack will allow you and your moderators to do your job more effectively by allowing you to mass-moderate. You can perform the same action on multiple threads and posts without leaving the current page!
What is required?
In order to use this hack, you must have cookies and JavaScript enabled! If you don't, this hack will not work. (Note: there is no "alternative display" for people without JavaScript enabled).

Bugs
I have thoroughly tested this hack with as many different combinations I could think of. But I probably have either over looked one or two, or just didn't think of some. If you find any odd behaviour, please let me know!

Fixes For 1.2.1
The following fixes are in in the next version:
ok, after asking a few questions on vbadvanced.com forum, here's what i came up with... I've added the following code to the adv_portal template since it replaces all the code between the <html>... and <body> tags from the templates:
Now, I get the permission to delete the posts, I get the checkboxes, I get the number of checked off topics in the bracket, but when I hit GO (to move topics, for example) I still get the no permission error. I've tried adding myself as a moderator to the specific forum in question as well, and nothing.
Btw, is my <body> tag supposed to look like this on the page load:

Code:
<body onload="inline_init(, 'thread'); ">
Glad you found out what the problem was. And no the body tag is not supposed to look like that. The first argument in the inline_init() function is supposed to be the thread or forum ID that you're currently viewing. Missing this would cause that no permissions page to be thrown. I'm not sure how to resolve this, though.
Is it possible to add the inline mod tools to search results? As i need to move alot of specific threads and being able to mass move searched threads would be nice ^.^
A question was asked about attachments here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=206 but never answered. Most of my use of this tool is with merging posts that deal a lot with attachments. I do not want to delete the attachments, merely merge all text and attachments into one post, however the attachments from all except the first post are lost. How can this be remedied? A solution would be very much appreciated.
PS - thank you to all involved in making this wonderful tool. Outstanding work.

Sorry, I must have missed that post. Use this for a solution.
Open inlinemod.php and find:
PHP Code:
// Remove the others
Add before that:
PHP Code:
// save attachments to new post
$DB_site->query("UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "attachment SET postid = {$vars['newpost']['postid']} WHERE postid IN (" . implode(', ', $vars['posts']) . ")");
I have no way of fixing any previous attachments that were left missing. However, they were not removed from the database so you could manually relink them if you need to.
1. I added that above coding for Merging and keep attachments, but it does not seem to be working. Anything else I should have done to inlinemod.php or others?
2. Anyway to have the option of Physically Deleting the Posts/Threads instead of Soft delete?
