Advanced Warning System (Beta Version) · **Released**: 09-08-2005

Advanced Warning System

IF YOU ARE RUNNING vB 3.6, THERE IS A NEW THREAD FOR THIS HACK UNDER THAT VERSION. vB 3.6 USERS GO HERE:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=124477

This is a direct port of the Advanced Warning System, as it was implemented in vB 3.0.x. This port has all the features of AWS version 3.4.16, except the Notes.

For a complete description of AWS capabilities, please refer to the following thread:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?p=574374

The vB 3.5 compliant version of AWS includes:

1 Product XML (17 Plugins, 107 Phrases, 26 Templates, 43 Settings)
1 ACP Navigation XML
1 PHP Functions File
3 Images
2 PHP Frontend Files
1 PHP Admin CP File
1 PHP Mod CP File
3 PHP Cronjob Files

This port would not be possible, without the help of KirbyDE, to whom I am greatful. KirbyDE will also be responsible for supporting you here, with questions related to this particular release. Also, this port would not have been possible, without the help of Juan P hernandez, who offered me a free test system, in which the porting was performed.

The hack has been tested and it is believed to be bug-free, however since this is a major hack, I release it today (September 9th 2005) as beta.

I hope you all enjoy it.

If you found a Bug, please report it at http://bugs.kirbydemos.ath.cx

This helps to keep issues organized, which can't be guaranteed if it's only posted in the Thread.
Thank you.

P.S.1: After you install the hack per the instructions, please update your installation with the separate files listed. They are newer files not included in the zip.

P.S.2: If you want to use the Notes feature, as it existed in AWS 3.4.16, please install AWS per the instructions in the zip file, and THEN follow the instructions included in the warn_notes_update_instructions.txt.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Please keep in mind that this hack is not supported. What this means is that I have no obligation to support it. The reason for that, is because I have no access to a vB 3.5 system any more, so I can't work on this hack any more. Andreas (or KirbyDE) who undertook the support of this version of the AWS hack in the beginning, is obviously too busy to support it. So you are on your own, at least as far as the interaction with vB is concerned. If you have an issue with the hack files themselves, I'll do my best to solve it, but without a test environment, it is not easy. So users of vB 3.5 beware!

P.S. May 31st 2006: The zip file uploaded today, should contain all the debugging done by Delphi, so it should be fine as it is. You do not need the other files listed at the right, only the zip. Download it and follow the instructions in it, for installing the hack. I leave the other files there, just in case some one needs them, they will be deleted later.

Disregard, the user hit the ban threshold and I didn't realize he was banned.

Sorry.....

How long does the PM cut-off last for?? I am guessing it follows the warn maturity??

If so, can it be set to increment like bans??

I have my maturity set to 30 days and bans to increment starting at 1 day.

It looks like PM cut-off will last longer than the ban.

I guessed so, but for the name of God, I can't tell what is the problem with this guy, if you have a clue, I am listening.

PM Cut-off depends on the points the member has. So yes, it follows maturity. The maturity depends on the warning type. Less severe warning types should have a small maturity, more severe ones, should have larger.

When you had this for 3.0, we modded it so that it didnt have two segments 1. post related 2. profile related. We combined it so the system would just run off one set of programmed warnings and if it was post related it took the info, if it was not post related, then it didnt show any thead info. It seems more logical to have the system this way.

Reason is, what if you have a rule that could be either post related or not post related. Seems silly to have to program that same law twice in the system.

Cant you just combine it? Drop the post related/non post related feature and just make it one set where the system pulls the thread link if the warn comes from the post or not if from profile?

I just dont remember how to merge it from a year ago and really dont want to go through that again.

Andreas · #**138** 09-17-2005, 04:07 AM

Seems to be more logical to me to have separate warning types.
Don't know hiw sv1cec thinks about it, but I think it should not be changed.

WNxWakko · #**139** 09-17-2005, 04:09 AM

Why have two seperate. What Im saying is the way we modded this mod a year ago was the system determined if it was post or nonpost related in itself.

I have 10 laws which have different criterias and could be both, so that means I have to create 20 warnings in the system, 10 for each and when you look at the summary page showing all the warnings you could get it looks horrible with 10 dupes.

sv1cec · #**140** 09-17-2005, 04:40 AM

It could be modified to work as WNxWakko, but what's the reason? I fail to see the reason to spend some hours recoding that, just to save up some copying and pasting. I certainly do not have the time to do it.

Ok well I have several problems. Here we go:

1)First problem comes up when using the AWS menu in ACP. I can use the managing warning options but when I click Manage Warning Types I see the bar that sayd Current Warning Types but I get a DB error above it:

PHP Code:


			
Database error in vBulletin 3.5.0 Release Candidate 3:

Warn User and View User Warnings. However when i click View Warnings Logs I get a white DB Error page:

PHP Code:

When I click the setting for Statistics - Warnings For Users I get a DB Error:

PHP Code:


			
Database error in vBulletin 3.5.0 Release Candidate 3:
Invalid SQL:
SELECT COUNT(*) AS users FROM user AS user where warnings>0 OR alerts>0;

Referrer     : /forums/admincp/index.php?do=nav
Username     : Xplorer4x4

Also take note I had this installed on vB3.0. I noticed in the Statistics-Warnings Per Type that all my old warnings descriptions are active, but the warnings issued count is off.

I also had some problems with my postbit_legacy template, but I assume thats what I get for doing template mods at near 4AM

.

Any ideas?
