tested with 3.0.3
You went into a lot of trouble selecting the moderators for your forum, you created a set of rules, told them what you expected from them. Now, how do you know if they are really moderating?
Of course, if you have 3 forums and 3 moderators, it's not big deal. But if you have 5+ moderators then this tool might be useful.
I wanted to receive an alert when my moderators were absent, or when they were in the forum but weren't doing any moderation at all... also I want my moderators to be active posters. But checking on every one of them is time consuming. That's why I made this tool.
With it you receive an alert pm if:
a moderator has been absent for more than x days
a moderator has not modded (edited/deleted/moved/closed) for more than z days
a moderator has not posted in HIS forum for more than y days
a moderator has nos posted for more than y days
a moderator has not created a new thread in HIS forums for more than y days
a moderator has not created a thread globally for more than y days
a moderator has failed to OPEN and potentially read at least x percent threads in HIS forum in the last week
Installation instructions:
1)
Upload the files in the .zip file to your forum. Make sure that you follow the directory structure in the zip file.
modmanagement.php goes in the root of your forum
functions_modmanagement.php goes to the includes/ directory
modmanagement_cron.php goes into the includes/cron/ directory
modmanagement_install.php goes into the admincp directory
2)
Open the modmanagement_install.php in your browser
3)
That's it No file modifications, no template modifications
Customization:
- Go to vbulletin options and change how many posts a moderator should do in how many days, how long can someone be inactive, etc.
- Go to the scheduled tasks and you can change the cron job. By default, it sends the alerts sunday morning.
Other options:
Open modmanagement.php in your browser to see a summary of the moderators activity.
Even more customization:

As I said, great hack. However, I would prefer if I call it "Moderator Statistics" instead of "Moderators Management". I've searched the files and the templates, and I can't find where that phrase comes from. I am talking about the phrase that appears in the welcome box, as shown in the attached picture.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

It is in the phrases
AdminCP
Languages & Phrases -> Search in Phrases -> mod_management (phrase variable name)
This is crazy. I just reuploaded (same size). I tried to change the template name to another one, yet still empty!!!
Ah! Forgot to say I am using 3.01
That might be the problem.... I have only tested this hack with vb3.0.3, it might not work with 3.0.1. Depending on your server configuration you can get a blank page if you have a php error, like calling a function that didn't exist... can you get the detailed error from the server log or something like that? maybe it is a simple fix. Did you remembered to upload functions_modmanagement.php in the includes directory? You can also try adding something like "Hello" at the very end of the file, if it doesn't print then it is a php error and nothing with the template.
What can I say? I am really sorry. I was hoping there was a cache for moderator permissions... there is not. 12293 queries is not acceptable. In my defense 12293 queries in only 3.6 seconds? Those must be light-speed queries.
Please use the modified version in this post (reupload it in your includes/ directory), I wrote a custom fetch_permissions and it uses A LOT less queries. Please let me know if it helped, I know it will.
I feel much better now: Page generated in 1.09987 seconds with 11 queries
However, the sorting by lastvisit still doesnt work very well:
here's the order I get with modmanagement.php?sortby=lastvisit

If you want to allow some other group to access the code too, you can just modify the condition in modmanagement.php, right?
says
PHP Code:
// only administrators can see this page if (($bbuserinfo['usergroupid'] != 6) AND ($bbuserinfo['usergroupid'] != 5)) { print_no_permission(); }
Please reupload the includes/functions_modmanagement.php file in the zip, there was a bug with the ordering by lastvisit, it was showing the lastactivity and ordering by the last visit.
Yes, you can just modify the condition in the modmanagement.php in that way. In your example that would give access to the supermoderators also.
No that does not make sense. I wish someone could explain. I am sure there is a reason for it. Anyway, I just placed a non breaking space as echo. The only annoyance is that it drops the header table from topmargin=0
