What does this hack do?
// ++++++++++++++
It allows your users to private text each other within a post.
It still maintains a regular post. but allows an option to private text other users.
You can choose which usergroupcs can add private text messages and which groups can see them.
But unless a usergroup is allowed to view no other user will be able to view it except the user recieving and the user posting.
Enjoy this hack It's really a good addition to keep things smart.
The usergroups options can be edited in the admin cp usergroup.php
And the private text length can also edited in the vbulletin options in admin cp under thread options.
The private text messages work with bbcode... smilies... and disables html etc... same as a regular message would work.
Also maintains the same image count... so if you have your image set at 5 per post and the user tries 3 in a post and 3 in the private text message they will get the images error
The private text messages can be edited the same way as a post, but when quoting they're bypassed.
Hopefully you'll enjoy this hack as much as i did making it If you like it please click on the install thanks [ g-force2k2 ]

Doesn't work here.

Firstly, whenever I change permissions I do so, go back to check and they've gone back to the original (off) setting.

Even when I do click on then don't go back in, I (admin) can view all of them (as I should), so can the person I send it to (as he should), but unfortunately when each of us logs out of the board we can still read it...

@Tim Wheatley:

First open your modified usergroup.php.

Replace

PHP Code:

makeyesnocode("Can add private text messages","canaddprivtxt",$usergroup[cannaddprivtxt]); 


with

PHP Code:

makeyesnocode("Can add private text messages","canaddprivtxt",$usergroup[canaddprivtxt]); 


---

Now, open your modified showthread.php. When you first modified it, you inserted the following two times:

PHP Code:

// +++++++ Private Text Hack [ g-force2k2 ] +++++++
if(!$getperms['canviewprivtxt']) {
  $viewprivtxt=0;
}
// +++++++ Private Text Hack [ g-force2k2 ] +++++++ 


Replace both with:

PHP Code:

// +++++++ Private Text Hack [ g-force2k2 ] +++++++
if($getperms['canviewprivtxt']) {
  $viewprivtxt=1;
}
// +++++++ Private Text Hack [ g-force2k2 ] +++++++ 


Now everything should work.

[g-force2k2]

Tim there's two changes that you need to make...

A)

open admin/usergroup.php

find:

PHP Code:

$cannviewprivtxt 


it should be:

PHP Code:

$canviewprivtx 


B)

open showthread.php

find:

PHP Code:

// +++++++ Private Text Hack [ g-force2k2 ] +++++++
    if($getperms['canviewprivtxt']) {
      $viewprivtxt=1;
      }
// +++++++ Private Text Hack [ g-force2k2 ] +++++++ 


should find it twice and replace them both with:

PHP Code:

// +++++++ Private Text Hack [ g-force2k2 ] +++++++
    if($getperms['canviewprivtxt']) {
      $viewprivtxt=1;
      }
// +++++++ Private Text Hack [ g-force2k2 ] +++++++ 


I await to hear good news from you too Tim

@Boofo: See step 3 and step 6 for showthread.php in your install_privatetext.php.

[Boofo]

Thanks. I just found that about 2 seconds after I posted the message that I just deleted.

Sorry about that. I erased it after I found the second instance of code. It was formatted different in my showthread.php so I had to search for a single line. I felt kind-of stupid and thought I could erase it before anyone caught it.

My ISP has been down since about 1/3 into this hack. I had just uploaded the newreply (before the added change which I have to do when I can get the site back online) and just got done with the showthread.php and was uploading it when the site went down. Now, I have made the changes to it and am just waiting for the site to come back up so I can finish the hack. I'm in a holding pattern, I guess you could say.

g-force2k2, I may need your assistance when I finish this in case I got something wrong in the middle of all of this. Having a site go down in the middle of a hack can be quite frustrating, especially when there are changes made during that time.
