Make invisible users visible to Super Moderators and Moderators.

Very simple, but seeing there was a request for it, I figured I would go ahead and release how I was able to accomplish this in vB 2.0.3. Not sure if it is the same in 2.2 or not, but it probably isn't too much different regardless.

EDIT: Updated instruction attachment for inclusion of complete 2.2.0 modifications.

EDIT2: See Post #29 For the fix for fourmdisplay.php for versions 2.2.2 and 2.2.3.

EDIT3: see Post #48 For the new install file for vB version 2.2.6

[shoppingtelly]

This would be a really usefull feature but can't get it to work on 2.2.0

I guess there is no way to change the code lightly where supers and mods see invvisibles, but not the admin. I choose to reamin fully hidden for protection of my board.

I would think it would be just a edit in the hack, can anybody help? If not I must uninstall this wonderful hack.

Thanks,

midz

Hey. I've been attempting to install this hack for 2 hours and I cannot figure out why it is not working. I'm sure it's something simple, and I'm just missing it...

Here's a code snippet..

PHP Code:

    if ($loggedin['invisible']==0 or $bbuserinfo['usergroupid']==6 or $bbuserinfo['usergroupid']==5 or $bbuserinfo['usergroupid']==7) {
      $numbervisible++;
      $userid = $loggedin['userid'];
      if ($loggedin['invisible'] == 1) { // Invisible User but show to Admin
        $invisibleuser = '*';
      } else {
        $invisibleuser = '';
      }
      if ($loggedin['usergroupid'] == 6 and $highlightadmin) {
          $username = "<b><i>$loggedin[username]</i></b>";
      } else if (($mod["$userid"] or $loggedin['usergroupid'] == 5) and $highlightadmin) {
          $username = "<b>$loggedin[username]</b>";
      } else {
                $username = $loggedin['username'];
            }
      eval("\$activeusers = \"".gettemplate('forumhome_loggedinuser')."\";");
    }

    while ($loggedin=$DB_site->fetch_array($loggedins)) {
      $numberregistered++;
      $invisibleuser = '';
      if ($loggedin['invisible']==1 and $bbuserinfo['usergroupid']!=6 and $bbuserinfo['usergroupid']!=5 and $bbuserinfo['usergroupid']!=7) {            
        continue;
      }
      $numbervisible++;
      $userid=$loggedin['userid'];
      if ($loggedin['invisible'] == 1) { // Invisible User but show to Admin
        $invisibleuser = '*';
      }
      if ($loggedin['usergroupid'] == 6 and $highlightadmin) {
        $username = "<b><i>$loggedin[username]</i></b>";
            } else if (($mod["$userid"] or $loggedin['usergroupid'] == 5) and $highlightadmin) {
                $username = "<b>$loggedin[username]</b>";
            } else {
                $username = $loggedin['username'];
            }
      eval("\$activeusers .= \", ".gettemplate('forumhome_loggedinuser')."\";");
    } 


My usergroupid's are correct.

Thanks for the help!

Does this hack work with vBulletin Version 2.3.0 ?

[ssabmud]

This isn't working for me in 2.3.0. Anyone know what needs to be done?

[Quikdeth]

bump. I have 2.3.2 I had it before the update, but would like to re-install on this new version.
