Allow ONLY mods and admins to use custom avatars

My mods have been bugging me for ever that they want custom avatars, just like they have custom user titles.

This hack is really simple, won't take you more than 5 minutes.

1. In member.php find

  if ($bbuserinfo[userid]==0) {
    show_nopermission();
  }

  $avatarchecked[$bbuserinfo[avatarid]]="checked";

and add this right after:

if (ismoderator()) {
  $avatarcustomposts = 0;
}

2. In the same file replace this:

  if ($bbuserinfo[userid]==0) {
    show_nopermission();
  }

  $useavatar=iif($avatarid==-1,0,1);

and add this right after:

if (ismoderator()) {
  $avatarcustomposts = 0;
}

And that's it!

Have fun.

Thanks again, Chen!!! This is something we've been waiting for for a year now! *looks to Matt*


And yes, it should be red. *sigh* *goes to change av, now* But I won't spam, so....

This would be a great feature in v3. *hint*

Is there anyway to allow 1 other custom usergroup besides mods and admins to be able to do this?

[Admin]

Yes, instead of adding the code I give in my first post, add this:

if (ismoderator() or $bbuserinfo['usergroupid']==X) {
  $avatarcustomposts = 0;
}

(change X to the ID of that other group)

[ptbyjason]

ahhhh, I knew it had to be something simple like that, thanks Chen!

Edited to say: The admins are happy as is. Yay!
