[DBTech] Threadmins and Group Moderators v2 (vB4) · **Released**: 04-20-2012

Threadmins and Group Moderators is a moderation enhancement for single users (who can receive permissions to modify their own threads, or single threads and social group discussions) as well as allow for usergroups to be set as 'group moderators' and allow the users in such usergroups the same moderator permissions.

Uses
Threadmins and Group Moderators is a self moderation system that allows threads to be moderated by the user that created them. Users can be given permissions to edit, delete, sticky, open/close or be immune to such actions. Also it allows users to be assigned as moderators to a single thread or to a single Social Group discussion and allows usergroups to be assigned as moderators to forums.

I believe this plugin should get much more effort before asking money for it.

It basically does not work 'as it is'.

I have version 4.0.8. It will not work until doing the following change in the functions.php:

PHP Code:


			
                $return = false;

                //THE NEXT LINE SHOULD BE COMMENTED TO MAKE IT WORK

                //if (!isset($permission))

                {

                    ($hook = vBulletinHook::fetch_hook('can_moderate_forum')) ? eval($hook) : false;

                }

                return $return;

This is probably Okay, but...

1. Where is the soft-delete ability which is announced?

One of the posters has a thread which has about 1,000 pages. Moderators have no time to clean it up, and I'd like to allow this poster to take care about his thread by allowing him editing and deliting messages.
The only way I found is clicking 'Edit' and then in the Advanced Edit mode VB has an option 'Delete'.

Just imagine how much time the poster should spend for deleting ~900 pages by clicking 'Edit' on each message and then 'Delete'!
This should be done 18,000 times!
This is really terrible.

2. After having this plugin running, option 'Manage thread' becomes available.

This is definitely a bug. Since it allows moving a thread into any forum poster wants.

This mod at the current time doesn't allow inline moderation, so yes, users need to edit post and go advanced to soft delete them.

Maybe in newer version there will be option for this, but in my opinion, this as it is now is pretty big improvement to not being able to allow any kind of moderation to users at all. Users don't need to have all moderators tools at their disposal.

In what way does it not work? Are you expecting it to do more than it does? If you can be more specific about the problem, we might be able to help you with it: Fix it if it's a bug, or explain why the mod doesn't do what you are expecting, or even look at implementing it if it's not a feature.

You've removed a permissions check, not something we'd suggest you do. I've not checked it on 4.0.8, but if you explain what the problem is, we'll look into why it's not working (if appropriate).

Soft delete is meant to work from within the post as Alan mentions in the previous post. This is not a mass moderating capability. It might be something we can look at adding. We will make some initial investigations to see what we can do for this.

The bug almost certainly comes from the code change you made above, as there are no administrative tools available to users normally. The only options a user gets is as if they have permissions to sticky or close their thread.

If you've got this problem without the code change you made above, please let us know so we can investigate.

Hi

I was looking for something like this, and I'm willing to pay for it, but before any tests and purchasing, I want to ask about specific scenario that I want to use this product for.

I want to give thread starter and some other users the control on specific thread/s in specific forum/s, not all his threads in that forum/s, is it possible with your product?

I found this product that may do what I want, but I have bad feeling about it (it is looks like dead product) http://www.forumsmods.com/cart/product/3-Threadmins

Regards

.

Are you going to create mod User Threads for VB3? I would buy it.

Just to confirm that this consideration is being looked into after a request made directly at the DragonByte Tech website.

We can look into this when considering the new features suggested above.

khurtsiya · #20 08-20-2012, 06:28 AM

I am not as good in English. Will you do VB3 version or not any time in future?

sutto · #21 08-21-2012, 12:03 PM

Hi Guys,

Thanks for another great mod!

I do have one issue though. I've set-up a specific sub forum to have delete & close access, however there are no available options to them to be able to soft delete other user posts.
