Sig Editor

A nice link in the post which allows moderators, super moderators and admins to edit the signature of other users. There is also protection to stop the user changing the signature of other admins and moderators. A nice tick box is also present to allow you to suspend the signature without having to type in the message.

Hack suggested by Matt.

Updated to allow the original admin, ie the person with userid 1 to edit the sigs of any user via this interface instead of having to go to the admin panel. Sorted a bug with this that only let the person with userid 1 update.

Please everyone download the file and apply the changes to moderator.php again

i wish this was re-made so that only ADMINS could change the sigs

If it was an admin then he can just go into the admin panel....
This hack was designed to let mods who don't have access to the admin panel to be able to edit the signatures of users with abusive sigs.

Hmm I guess I can do this it follows the principles of the hideing the IP link from normal users which is in my sig.

... and as ip.gif you could kindly give us (all of us who used that link in postbit_ip_hidden template) some nice icon for 'edit signature' ... :laugh:
Couldn't you ?

Thanks verra much for the hack ^_^

I kinda, hid the hack behind the foldericon. In functions.php find:

	if ($post[dateline]>$bbuserinfo[lastvisit]) {
		$post[foldericon]="<img src=\"https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/images/posticonnew.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"New Post\">";
	} else {
		$post[foldericon]="<img src=\"https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/images/posticon.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Old Post\">";
	}

and replace by

	if ($post[dateline]>$bbuserinfo[lastvisit]) {
		$post[foldericon]="<a href=\"javascript:openeditsigwindow(490,320,'$session[sessionhash]','$post[userid]')\"><img src=\"https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/images/posticonnew.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"New Post\"></a>";
	} else {
		$post[foldericon]="<a href=\"javascript:openeditsigwindow(490,320,'$session[sessionhash]','$post[userid]')\"><img src=\"https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/images/posticon.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Old Post\"></a>";
	}

works nicely ^_^

Yeh, but what's the relationship between [Newpost] and Edit signature, to use that button ?
Thnx

PPN - I'm having problems with this hack, royally! I think I finally have it so two of the three admins can edit members posts, but not the third admin. Mods, it seems, can't edit anything. And no one can edit admin posts (admin, I mean). Could you maybe look at my moderator.php to see how badly I seem to have messed it up? I have it working on one board, but not on this one. I'd give you a url, but the domain isn't set up yet and the boards not open (maybe by Thursday).

Hi
Ive installed this hack this evening, and it seems to be working ok, except that I'm getting an IE error on the page now!!

The address where I'm getting this error is
http://www.christiansurvivors.com/fo...?s=&threadid=4

Hope someone can help Its probably something stupid and all my fault! *sigh* :nervous:

[Scott MacVicar]

its looking fine for me, no javascript errors or anything.

[Elentari]

Its not a javascript error. Its an IE error, that comes up on every thread ... you know, the small yellow warning sign that IE pops up every now and then?
The exact warning is as follow :

Line : 1198
Char : 63
Error : Undetermined String Constant
Code : 0
Url : http://www.christiansurvivors.com/fo...?s=&threadid=4

Hope that helps some?

Just one more question - in the downloadable file, it says you need to create 3 templates, then appears to tell you 4 templates that you need to make. Am I right in having all 4?? (editsig; editsig_done; editsig_error; & editsig_suspend)

[Scott MacVicar]

I'm looking at the board now and i'm getting no javascript error at all.
