Super Close Threads v1.0

As requested by Ice Melee...

a big thanks to GoldKnight for helping me beta test this one and get things squared away

What does this hack do?

Well if your and Administrator and at times you don't want anyone editing or replying to a closed thread (including Moderators and S Moderators) this hack will prevent then from doing so...

Super Close and Super Open thread are special admin features that i have included in the admin optioins... once a super close is implemented it will decline moderators and smoderators from replying editing and even accessing the edit thread options...

It is a new type of close that can only be induced by an Administrator in the admin thread options... a Super Close will overide both a close and an open thread at anytime...

Well i hope that some use can be made of this hack

I have a problem, PHP people, help me please!

if ($thread[open]) {
$replyclose="https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/images/reply.gif";
$thread[closereason]="";
} else {
$replyclose="https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/images/threadclosed.gif";
if (trim($thread[closereason])) {
$thread[closereason]=bbcodeparse2($thread[closereason],0,1,1,1);
eval("\$thread[closereason] = \"".gettemplate("showthread_closereason")."\";" );
} else {
$thread[closereason] = "";
}
}

That is what I have in my showthread.php file...

I have to replace it with:

// +++++++ Super Close Thread Hack [ g-force2k2 ] +++++++
if(($thread[open] == 0) OR ($thread[open] == 2)) {
$replyclose='https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/images/threadclosed.gif';
} else {
$replyclose='https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/images/reply.gif';
}
// +++++++ Super Close Thread Hack [ g-force2k2 ] +++++++


I'm sure there's an easy fix for this but I don't know what it is

[N9ne]

Attached is a PHP file of my instructions so hopefull it doesn't parse the image code.

bump, please help!

Ok I managed to fix it for myself! Ok it took me a bit of thinking though [I had no idea where to start!], but in the end I just used some intelligence and tried a few tricks and looked at the PHP, tried to understand it and got a grip of it and fixed it for myself! At first I had a problem that it wasn't calling the template for closereason but I also fixed that, but then I had a problem with it showing the reply image instead of close image but I fixed that too!

Thanks for a great hack, now i can superclose threads

It's a nice hack but it would be nice if moderators couldn't alter these threads at all. Currently they can move/delete them still.

I fixed that on my board by adding the code to more sections of postings.php.

eg, at the top of a section under (for example)

PHP Code:

// ############################### start stick / unstick thread ############################### 


you get an 'if' action thing. In this case

PHP Code:

 if ($HTTP_POST_VARS['action'] == 'stick' OR ($action == 'stick' AND $s == $session['dbsessionhash'])) { 


. Under this you get

PHP Code:

$threadid=verifyid("thread",$threadid);
  $threadinfo=getthreadinfo($threadid);

  if (!$threadinfo[visible]) {
    $idname="thread";
    eval("standarderror(\"".gettemplate("error_invalidid")."\");"); 


. Just put

PHP Code:

// +++++++ Super Close Thread Hack [ g-force2k2 ] +++++++
  if(($threadinfo[open] == 2) AND ($bbuserinfo[usergroupid] != 6)) {
    show_nopermission();
  }
// +++++++ Super Close Thread Hack [ g-force2k2 ] +++++++ 


underneath any function you don't want moderators to have power for, such as deleting/moving a superclosed thread.

Also, in postings.php, it would be better if 'the thread has been successfully superopen/superclose'' read 'super-opened/super-closed or something. Just change

PHP Code:


    $action = "superclose";
  } elseif($threadinfo[open] == 2) {
    $threadinfo[open] = 1;
    $action = "superopen"; 


to

PHP Code:

    $action = "super-closed";
  } elseif($threadinfo[open] == 2) {
    $threadinfo[open] = 1;
    $action = "super-opened";
