i'm on 3.7.2 and also getting the || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||

any suggestions?

[kawzaki]

brilliant,
i have been looking for this for a while.. using wrong key words


vb forum 3.6.8 and working smooth so far.

however, be careful,
once u add a group on a forum to moderate, they get view permission to all other forums ( including private ones ). must check the other forums permissions to avoid giving unwanted access.

thanks a lot!

I really would like to see Andreas updating this mod. Its very useful. I'll send him a PM and maybe he has time to do it

Has anyone figured out how to make this work with the social groups, visitor messages and user albums? As it stands now there is no way to assign mods to those areas when you use this plugin.

A quick but dirty method to get rid of it is to go in to the following plugin
Add Usergroup as Moderator: Show Usergroup forumdisplay_moderator

find

$show['doshowmodgroup'] = false; 
        $moderatorslist .= '||';

change to

$show['doshowmodgroup'] = false; 
        $moderatorslist .= '';

It seems to work


Would be nice if it was updated to 3.7 though 3.8 is coming "soon" so I wouldn't hold my breath for a 3.7 release unfortunetly

Same problem here.

This is even worse that the inability to give moderation access or not to those areas, because when you upgrade your forum from 3.6 to 3.7, all your existing moderators will be given rights to any social groups (for example), without ability to remove those rights, but any new moderator (added to a moderator usergroup) won't, without ability to give those rights (except by adding the moderator to a dummy forum by the standard way and give the rights to social groups).
