Notify user about his moved thread

++ fully translatable, no file edits, no new queries, no template edits, no problems ++

Hello!

Here's another one I made for my community which I want to share with you.

We have to deal with many users who don't have experience with vBulletin or bulletin boards in general so they often get confused when we move a thread to a better location.

This plugin notifies the user with a PM when we moved one of his threads. This plugin is rather simple but can be extended with ease. However, I won't do it because I don't need it

Known limitations:
This one doesn't affect the inline moderation. I couldn't find a hook for it so I decided to leave that to an expert


Installation:
Just upload the product-file. It will install the plugin and the 2 new phrases for you.
Now you have to edit the freshly installed plugin. It's called Plugin - Notify user about thread move.

Edit those two lines according to your information.

PHP Code:

$pmdm->set('fromuserid', X); // replace X with your USERID
$pmdm->set('fromusername', 'Y'); // replace Y with your USERNAME 


Both information must be correct, they tell the user who sent this PM.

In my case, I would have to use:

PHP Code:

$pmdm->set('fromuserid', 1); // 1 is my ID
$pmdm->set('fromusername', 'MrNase'); // MrNase is my nickname 


which sends a message from the user 'MrNase' whose ID is '2'

Save the plugin and you are done


Have fun with it and feel free to release additions to this product!


Please click install or you'll get the flu!!!

After a week I can tell you that the thread MUST be specified.

When one of my mods moves a thread, the pm is sent from me. I dont know every thread that is moved, and I get the question back WHY WAS MY THREAD MOVED and I dont even know what thread it moved.

Sorry - I uninstalled this hack. Its a great idea and I appreciate the effort, but its incomplete and causing me more work, and I dont see the author paying attention to this thread. Let me know if you update it.

Please read my first post:

It's working for me, I don't know why it's isn't working for.

Like COBRAws pointed out, there's another modification that does the same. Feel free to install that one if you don't like this one.
