After some requests and a debate in the requests forum I've finally finished the majority of this hack. It allows the admin to find a user via the current method in the control panel then click view user's pm's. They are then shown all the pm's in the users folders.

Includes admin logging and is designed to use the cp.css file which is already used by the control panel. I considered adding a search feature but it would be hard without indexing all of the pm's the way vBulletin already does. This means it would be a very limited search.
You can also now select which admins can view user pm's this is done the same way that restriction to the adminlogging is done, the variable is at the top of pm.php

This hack involves uploading pm.php to the admin directory then following the instructions which requires you adding the two links within /admin/user.php

Updated 25th November 2001 @ 22:39

Update was to fix broken smilies by disabling them and to show pm's in all folders not just the inbox. To update simply upload pm.php to your admin folder again.

legal ramifications?

we had a situation on the boards, and now users are telling me this could be an invasion of privacy? that this could be a legal matter?

what do you think? we have a terms of use which states (it was read and ok'd by a lawyer, however he wasn't internet law or anything) 'Duplication or use of any content from this WEB SITE for commercial purposes or in any manner likely to give the impression of official approval by Amitymama.com, is prohibited.

Works great also with 2.2.9

**INSTALL**

Well I have this installed on my board and the only ones to have complained about it are the ones that are trying to distrubute warez in someway and thought that no one could see their PMs. I had to tell them that even with out this hack installed I can go in the database and see everything that they have done anyway.

Marzas · #**216** 03-22-2003, 04:48 AM

could someone make it that i can see all pm's sent by all users on one page or something.

Marzas · #**217** 03-27-2003, 08:16 PM

Does this hack enable viewing of the messages in the Sent Items folder , as well as other folders that was created by the user ?

Or just those messages in the Inbox ?

Very useful Scott, Thanks!

Looks like a good hack.
Im not installing just yet , im going to try and edit the code so it will e-mail the user who made the pm that their Pm is being investigated.

Nice job tho :-)

Is there a way to only let a certain admin view PM's. I only trust me.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
