vBPrivate Threads

This hack has been ported to vBulletin 3.5.4 from the vBulletin 3.0.0 version with permission granted by:
Quote:
"You may modify, improve, upgrade, redistribute this hack, include it
in another hack or yours or translate it provided you do it free of
charge and you distribute it in www.vbulletin.org at least, there is no
need to pm me asking for permission"
in Kentaurus's post for its original release, found here

--------------------------------------------------------
This is my first major ported and released hack for vB.
--------------------------------------------------------

With this Code Modification you can add private threads to your forums. A private thread is:
  • A thread that some users or usergroups can view. Others cannot.
  • A thread that some users or usergroups cannot view. All others can.

Using this Modification, any user in a forum that has Private Threads turned on may create a private thread. It is useful for holding private moderator conversations, or for making a thread private when some users would like to see the discussion closed and others want it to continue.

Future Plans:
  • Add Super Moderators and Moderators to override the standard permissions
  • Admin Options for allowed private thread types
  • Admin Options to define users with override-permissions privilages
  • Admin Options for those who can make private threads
  • Private Threads will NOT show in the lastpost column when user does not have access to thread
  • Creator can view thread by default

Hack History:

Version 1.0.6
  • Changed several file edits to plugins (Thank you waza)
  • Some plugins were reverted back to file edits, no version change as it is going a bit backward
Version 1.0.5
  • Updated queries for install
  • Added queries for uninstall
  • 1 Added Plugin
  • Fixed copy/paste errors in file edits find/change
  • Added missing printthread edit
  • Fixed Search problem
Version 1.0.0
  • Initial release

Hack Overview:
  • Products: 1
    • 2 Queries
    • 1 Phrase
    • 13 Plugins
  • File Edits: 5 files (7 edits)
  • Template Edits: 3

Does this hack allow a specific forum to display private threads only? I only want this in one of my forum. Thanks

is there anyway that this can be reversed and used to block a user from a thread?

we sometimes have a thread when it is someones birthday and so would be nice to be able to @ban@ them from a thread created

I tried to install this on Ver. 3.6.4 but found I couldn't edit threads; I just get a blank page. I realize this mod wasn't intended for 3.6.4, but any ideas on how to fix this until the next version comes out would be appreciated.

Thanks Eikinskjaldi for a very useful mod!

I am not sure why it would make your template go blank other then it is causing an error and you have php errors turned off, check your error log from cpanel to see what the error is.

As to the 3.6.4 edition, as things currently stand I am having issues optimizing a piece of it and until thats complete it won't release, as well it is not my top priority currently as other things have come up related to the site I co-own. It has the option to block users if I recall right, its one of the 3 or 4th options, if not i'll make shure to make that part of the next release.
