[v1.2] Edit / Report Button Hack · **Released**: 11-02-2002

Edit / Report Button Hack - based on your permissions

What does this hack do?

Basically it allows you to insert a variable into your postbit template and if you posted the thread then it shows up with the edit link/button. If you didn't post it it shows the report link.

This is just like the hack installed here at vbulletin.org

Latest Version: 1.3

Thanks to:

- Hellsatan (for helping with a parse error)
- PPN for beta testing v1.2
- Dan_UPC for fixing two bugs

If you would like the report button in the default vbulletin style then here is the link:

Great hack, Mist.

Just a question or two, though.

What if you don't allow your Mods to edit posts in certain forums? And what if I want to report a post to my moderators if I come across one that I think they should know about? The only thing is that you don't want to have the report button show up on your own post, Admin or not. But I think you need it there, otherwise.

I thought this is why most sites have a forum for their staff.

To be honest i can't see a way around this...

Feel free to post any ideas

It's simple, just do 2 pieces of code instead of combining them into one. Sometimes a Mod or Admin can run across a message that they want the other Mods to know about and it would be easier to report it in the post than to go to a separate area and report it, you know what I mean?

Edit: That's ok, Mist, I went ahead and installed Firefly's code for this. It handles it like I explained. Good hack, though. Congrats!

Are you sure firefly's code shows this for admins?

I dont think it does..

Yes, ma'am, it does. That's what I was using before I tried your hack. It shows the edit button AND the report button for Admins and Moderators, like it really should be.

Just the regular users will only see one or the other.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
