From the makers of the colour green and purple comes the most exciting and fun way to moderate your forum: GRAMPS
In a nutshell, gramps simply allows you to keep 'inline' notes on a post by post basis viewable for admins, mods and/or whatever groups you define.
Its pretty self explanitory by the attachment pic and the acronymn GRAMPS (er - ok... the name sucks but who really cares? I always wanted to do a hack whose name sounded overly complicated, yet the acronymn was pants. Now I have done it!)
Please read the readme (there are vital install instructions buried in there!) and click the frickin install button. Ive wasted much of a sunny sunday doing this because I needed it for my forum.
Well I went through and did the changes myself to the showthread, but it looks like the phrases never went made it. I am lost as to what to do, but at least im not getting any error messages lol .

Ok I got it to work. I had to run the admin file by itself to set the permissions. I thought it would be in my admin panel and just didnt think about trying to run it. Its always something so simple.
BTW yoyo, the installer is named GISH (Geek Install System for Hacks... also the name of a very fine Album) and is set up so that you only need a few variables set and an array of phrases, templates, file changes, db changes and settings. Anyone glancing through it can easily see how its set up. Im not overly bothered who uses it as long as the copyright notice still goes to me
Its not perfect, however its the exact same file I use for my last 4 or 5 macks... all I have had to do is change the array accordingly.
However - GRAMPS does need a mate doesnt he
On a side note, if it interests anyone - I was going to make a log page that displays all gramps notes for quick moderation (in other words a quick view for the mods to see what the other mods have been working on) however I wont bother to if no one is really interested.
Toodles
That's cool, and yes I am interested in seeing that feature.
Ahh I missed that statement about gish. Now I understand. Its nice that people are still making hacks for 3.0.x since I will probably never upgrade to beta or its final version.
Wow, it seems that no one is using vb3.07 anymore!?
Everything I have been writing lately is with 3.5 in mind, for easy upgrades - but I didnt think so many people were running live with beta boards. huh!
Paul - thanks... I swear I did guess I didnt. Those boxes can be a bit funky sometimes
Corrie - I guess I forgot the gish folder in the install package though most people will have installed any of my other macks will have it or just add it themselves (ill stick the empty folder in the package today).
I didnt add the admincp changes as the only thing is the settings which is pretty much a one off, therefore I didnt see the need to put a permenant place in the admincp index. I guess it could always be an option though.
As for the pineapple - you may just have to wait and see. Ill shortly begin the extensive work to upgrade GAS. The adventures of the Pineapple may just be concluded there.

Huh? I think you got it backwards.. I am using 3.0.7 now, and was applauding you for writing cool hacks for it still, instead of jumping ship (not that I don't enjoy seeing new hacks for 3.5 in here a well).
