Warnings System Hack v2.1

Latest Version Warnings System Hack v2.1 Can be Found [ Here ]

After a Successful first release i decided to make a more customizeable and more optimizeable Warnings Hack well here it is...

For new installers simply run the auto installer (install_warning.php) and then use the installation_txt.php to make template and file modifications.

For members that have used my version 1.0 simply make the changes listed in the warn_upgade.php then delete all custom templates and run one query listed in the upgrade file. Then run the installer.

Thanks as always for GoldKnight's assistance

Version 2.1?

okay Nuclion try changing the whole code that you just posted into one line

PHP Code:

  $DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET profileview=profileview+1 WHERE userid='$userinfo[userid]'"); 


that should do the entire trick for that at least... then reapply my code and see what happens regards...

error is moving to line 1737 after doing that.

// Store hack By Lesane

$storeadmin = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT * FROM <--- line 1737
storeadmin");
$pointname=$storeadmin[pointname];
$storename=$storeadmin[storename];

$store=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT storep FROM user WHERE userid='$userinfo[userid]'");
$storepoints=$store[storep];

i'm sorry for asking you again with this old problem, but when i klick on the links in the postbit template, there will only show up a blank popup and if i open the warn.php?s=... directly via the link in the forumhome template it's blank, too... i use version 2.1 of this hack... does anyone can help me ? maybe with my bad english,too !

How about a master log that is viewable by the public? So that they can see all the warnings ever given out to everyone, by any admin/mod? Just like what we see in the admin cp?

I thought that is what the warn.php would do. But I guess that just displays the warning levels and points?

Also, in the template set that I have, I need to change the font color. It is currently white, which is difficult to see on my light blue background. Check it out here:

www.ez-company.net/forums/warn.php

What is the easiest way to do that?


Also, I installed this w/o a single glitch. No errors whatsoever. I think a few of these errors people are getting, are due to not setting the vBulletin Options - Warning System settings. But it really is a nice hack. I just need to work on the postbit icon addition...and somehow get a warning list of all users who have been given a warning, on a public page for all to see.

Okay....I have put this through some paces on my test forum and here is some interesting stuff:

First install:
1) Install when flawlessly
2) Noticed that it didn't update usertitle when the hack banned a member. **Fix posted by g-force2k2**
3) After doing some editing in the templates...all of a sudden I started getting a parse error when trying to view posts and the postbit template would not show. un-installing the hack completely did not solve th4e parse error and the database had to be overwritten to get it to go away.

Second Install:
1) Install went flawlessly
2) While customizing templates I noticed that a few of my hacks had stopped working: Moderator graphic and donator hack and site supporter hack......all had stuff to display in postbit.
3) un-installed hack in this order checking to see when the others would appear again,,,first un-installed the database parts.....my other hacks still did not show.....un-installed the script modifications.....my other hacks still did not show......un-installed the 3 template modifications....my other hacks showed back up again.
4) Also before I un-installed I tried some features and found that when you use the system to un-ban someone after the points system banned then their usertitle didn't change back to "member" but I think I can fix that.

Third install:
1) tried to run the installer but it kept telling me "duplicate value and referenced the number 40 so I changed all the 40's to 140 like was suggested in a post and it installed.
2) I had modified the installer with the template modifications of mine and the warnings list additions I wanted so it would install them first shot and I wouldn't have to go in a update all that again but I noticed that the templates (that I modified in the installer) showed up in the templates list as already edited instead of originals (started to think)
3) I then noticed that there was two sets of options in the vb options now but if I looked in the database....there was no settinggroup entries for the warnings system and a couple more that were there before were not present either.
4) I ran the un-installer again...it said successful just like every time. I also un-installed the template and script mods.
5) No matter how much I looked I couldn't find evidence that the hack still existed but it still showed 2 sets of setting groups in the admin panel.
6) I had to overwrite the settinggroup table to get that to go away. (thinking some more)

Fourth Install:
1) Changed the values to 33 (since that was next in line in my database) and installed fine once more.
2) everything seems fine...no problems like before....my other hacks still worked so I started using the functions again.
3) after asessing points to a member...I went to the admin panel and took them back and it said that there were no members warned......seemed correct.
4) I then asessed points to that member again and in the admin panel...took them back....seemed correct.
5) I then asessed enough points for that member to be banned and then went to the admin panel and through the warnings system unbanned that member and it said like it should that it was done, so I then went to the post I was testing all this in and clicked on the "[View Warnings]" link and the three warnings that should have been deleted showed up. A quick look in the database shows that they in fact had not been deleted.

So....it would apear that the uninstall doesn't work corectly and causes some strange stuff to happen in the database.

The templates showing up as already edited instead of original after modifying the install script suggests that some data was still in the database (although invisible) from the original install and edit.

the remove and delete warnings function isn't working even though it says it is from the admin panel

Would it be possible for you to look into these issues?

I love this hack and want to use it
