Private Message Flags Hack

This means you can flag certain private messages and have a filter to show only flagged. I guess its the same thing as GMail Stars.

This is beta as I haven't tried it out yet. Once I hear of a few successfull installs i'll upgrade it.

Few Notes
This removes the Private Message icon coloumn within the PM List (it works while viewing a PM.
I haven't included a template edit for Flagging while viewing a PM, YET (only while in PM list view).
This is my first proper vBulletin hack, i'm an experienced PHP coder but haven't really touched vBulletin.
There is no installer as of yet.

Stats:
1 MySQL query
4 Phrase Adds
1 Template Modification
9 File Edits

Install Time: 5 minutes

Files Modified:

• includes/functions_misc.php
• private.php
  
  

Install file attached.

Note. You'll need to upload an icon as /misc/warning.gif. I used the default vBulletin Warning sign(!) as the icon.

PLEASE CLICK INSTALL IF YOU USE THIS HACK, IT'LL CERTAINLY ENCOURAGE ME TO CODE MORE HACKS

[Note: 22nd March 2005: 11:15 GMT] Few typos in the install. Fixed.
[Note: 23rd March 2005: 15:37 GMT] There was a problem of it returning always to the folder Flagged. Problem fixed. Install updated.

Simply replace:

PHP Code:

$folderjump .= "<option value=\"-2\" " .iif($_GET['folderid']==$selectedid, HTML_SELECTED).">$vbphrase[flagged]($flaggedcount$vbphrase[messages])</option>"; 


with

PHP Code:

$folderjump .= "<option value=\"-2\" " .iif($_folderid==$selectedid, HTML_SELECTED) .">$vbphrase[flagged]($flaggedcount$vbphrase[messages])</option>"; 


infunctions_misc.php

Slight difference that you can tag them in a different way.

Oh well.

@nexialys - Dont put me down. I did this for other people and NOT myself. I felt the way you pointed it out could have been a bit more respectful.
