Moderator Activity Logging (updated)

<font size="3">Moderator Activity Log for 2.x</font>

Disclaimer:

-No support is offered for this hack. If you PM or email for support, it will be joyfully ignored. When I have time, I will answer questions in this thread.

** FREE LICENSE ** You must leave the header and footer intact.

Design Spec:

Track moderator and admin activites including: closing, opening, moving, and deleting threads. You are able to set the number of logs you view at one time and you can focus down to just one moderator by clicking on their name.

Installation (never had ModLog installed):

-upload install_modlog.php to your admin directory
-upload modlog.php to your admin directory
-run install_modlog.php, follow instructions
-delete install_modlog.php

Installation (have a previous version running successfully):

-upload modlog.php to your admin directory

Changes from the previous version:

-now has a fancy install routine instead of boring text instructions. Installing will now be easier and more fun!

-puts a link on the left side of your Admin CPanel under Admin Logs

Works on:

-vB 2.2.1
-untested on everything else but should work with the whole 2.x line and even 1.x if you figure out the postings.php modifications.

Screenshot attached, files attached in replies. Questions? Read the disclaimer at the top of this post. Thanks~

I think if you follow all directions (modifying admin/index.php) that you should have an entry for it in the Cpanel-- it will be below the Admin Logs.

>>I have run a test and have tried to clear all logs, but it won't.

Usually when people had problems with this it was because it uses a javascript onchange or something.. I forget..

>>So by that does this mean that it will always store 10?

No, it will store an infinite amount of records until you clear out the table. (You can do this manually with the empty command from phpMyAdmin or mySQLFront).

When you select 10, 25, or 100 that is the amount of records it will show you on the page, not how many it will store. Hope this helps~

waaaw I've been waiting for this hack

but I noticed It's still missing the stick/unstick merg/split edit functions

anyway thanks alot overgrow

[Overgrow]

I don't care enough about those to bother logging em.. if someone wants to write an extension of this hack, feel free, it would be easy.

[nafae]

yes and the bump w/o post moderator version

[Lucky]

Thanks, I know how to manually delete the logs, but it would be good if that feature worked as it fills up pretty fast. If you know how to remedy this please post as I would really appreciate it.
TIA

Thanks Overgrow, everything seems to be working fine. Just waiting for a mod to do something (my test mod name isn't logging any activity, but I think that's another issue).

I like my hacks nice and easy like this one!

Thanks Again.

i had a problem on V 2.2.1:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: htmlheader() in /kunden/fanwerk.com/webseiten/vbb2/admin/modlog.php on line 56

the header is still intact and all changes are made i don't know what happend???

This doesn't work for me? I had the old version installed, but stopped using it (didn't delete the sql entries) so I just followed the upgrade instructions... but I just deleted a thread (I'm an admin) and it's not bringing it up...

[Tim Wheatley]

Weird. I assume changes were made to the table entries between the earlier version and this one?

I manually edited the mysql table and renamed modlog to modlogold, then ran the sql query from inside the install file. Then I've manaually copied the old modlogold data into the new modlog and it works fine.

to delete the logs don´t wotk, can you fix this please
