Inferno Warning System v1.3

Well this was created purely for my own self and staff needs, but i'm sure you guys and gals will need a warning system to keep control over any member that doesn't wish to follow your rules.

The previews pretty much tell you all the features available, one that isn't shown is that the graphical representation of warnings will be displayed in a members profile, so that you may warn members via their profile or post(s).

v1.1 Updates:
- You can now enter a "Reason To Show User" input, this message is shown for users who are banned.
- Minor gramatical error in the ACP options.

v1.2 Updates:
- Missing template added (minor)
- WOL Fixed (minor)
- Unable to warn user via profile more than once if warn duplcation was not allowed (high)
- Ability to remove warnings
- ACP option to allow/disallow staff to remove warnings
- Warn log stretched page if it was large

1.3 Updates:
- Bug Fix: Warning points to be given were not consistant with maximum points allowed (the drop down menu went from 0 - 10 no matter what)
- Bug Fix: Those who cannot recieve PMs (either via turning it off themselves or due to other permissions) resulted in an error when you tried to warn them, this no longer happens but the PM will not send.
- Added new flexible warning expirations 'Hour' (Allows you to make the warnings expire in hours aswell as days/months)
- Added extensive flexible ban times (Now allowed to ban a user for x hours/days/months)
- Added post modifier notice (Allows the staff member to automatically add a notice to the top of the users post, allowing others to see that the post was warned)

Enjoy

Very cool! *installs*

(and, only one apostrophe in the wrong place! "one's" in the Admin CP.)

Is the warning hierachical which should mean that Mods cannot warn other mods or even admins?

I was curious about this myself.

[Zero Tolerance]

SMods/Admins can warn via profile, and mods of a forum can warn people in those forums (if they have made posts).

@ jluerken - I'm afraid it doesn't use a hierachical system, but you can insert protected usergroups, i usually enter all usergroup IDs which are mods/s.mods/admins, that way only staff can warn members.

@ hydrostatic - I'll get that in for v1.1

@ kall - Sorry, i'll make sure that's fixed in v1.1, nothings perfect, right?

Very useful .. installed with no problems on RC2
Clicked install

[sowen]

Fantastic! clicked install.

I am however getting this error when i do a 'run now' on the cron job;

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /.../.../.../forum/includes/functions.php on line 4240

Any ideas?

Thanks for the update ZT. There's just one thing. Why does the warning image indicator (in postbit) appears to all protected users? It is supposed to be hidden, there's no point to have it visible.

Does this checkbox serve a purpose .. if you click on the warn icon (+), you can issue a warning !?

ERm... thats the box to select the post with moderation tools isn't it? :squareeyed:

:: EDIT :: BTW ZT, are these templates uncached? Im seein'em as uncached

GREAT hack, but I only encountered one problem:
To test it out, I added 6 points to my own warning level, and then went back in and removed 6. For some reason, it banned me--perhaps because "remove points" used cut-and-pasted code from "add points" that hasn't been reversed?

Besides that, I'm very pleased.

Great to see it finally released Zero

I do not want the warning system shown to folks that do not have any warnings. I still would like admin, mods, or folks that have been warned previously to see the warning bar.

How do I do this?
