and the info is in nuked, it's a lot to pull up though (I tried it several times in different forums )

I forgot this step:

EDIT admin/FUNCTIONS.PHP

find:

PHP Code:

    if (!$ignore[$post[userid]]) {
        eval("\$retval = \"".gettemplate("postbit")."\";");
    } else {
        eval("\$retval = \"".gettemplate("postbit_ignore")."\";");
    }
    return $retval; 


and replace it with

PHP Code:

    if ($post[nuked]==1) {
        eval("\$retval = \"".gettemplate("postnuked")."\";");
    } else if ($ignore[$post[userid]]) {
        eval("\$retval = \"".gettemplate("postbit_ignore")."\";");
    } else    {
        eval("\$retval = \"".gettemplate("postbit")."\";");
    }
    return $retval; 


I will update teh main post.

I'm pretty sure that it should work then. Also make sure it stays nuked on the new reply page.

You will notice the colors and table widths may not match your forum.... you will need to fix the templates, beacause when I posted them here they change to match this forum.

The attatched file contains more generic templates that will look better on your forum.

that was it!

man, this is a great hack, considering that our forum never deletes stuff.

my many thanks... works perfectly now on 2.2.4

:thumbsup:

Just wanted to test out the vbhacker installer for my hack. I only have one forum/database so I need someone else to take a crack at installing it.

This hack enables moderators to "nuke" posts. Which means the post will be disabled, and hidden from view on the thread. The post will be replaced with the word *NUKED*. Moderators will still be able to view the original post through a link. Moderators may restore the nuked post back to it's original.

In a thread, if a moderator clicks the asterisk of a post, a window should flicker up.
Next time you view the thread (or if you reload it) the post should not display, but the word *NUKED* should be there.
If you hit 'reply', the preview of the posts below the reply box should also have *NUKED* instead of the actual post.


If a moderator clicks the asterisk on a nuked post, a window should popup showing what the original post was, with vb codes disabled. And the option to restore the thread - which if clicked should un-nuke the post.

If a regular member, or guest ever clicks the asterisk he should be faced with a permission denied page.

You need vbHacker to install this.
Just upload the attatched data file to the /admin directory and run vbHacker to install it.

Let me know of any problems.
