Private Message Workbench: Read, Search, Delete, Report and more

PM Workbench v1.00 Beta 5

================================================== ============================
Hack: PM Workbench
Version: 1.00 Beta 5
Author: MarcoH64
vB Version: vBulletin 3.5.0. RC2
================================================== ============================


Important Notice:
Depending on the modules installed, a privacy statement might be added to your board.
This Privacy Statement can not be removed or hidden by any means. Failure to comply would be against the TOS
of this hack, and you would not be allowed to use it.

If your board already has a Privacy Notice covering reading Private Messages by Administrators, you can PM me a link to that statement on your board (provide test login if needed) and your email address, and i will mail a Plugin to remove the Privacy link.


What is this hack?
PM Workbench offers you a variety of tools for working with or extending the standard vBulletin Private Message System.
It is a Modular System that will allow you to add those functions that you need for your board. New Modules might be added later.
The system is fully phrased and options can be set in vBulletin Options.
Permissions to use Modules are given using the includes/config.php for increased security.
Currently no file or template edits are needed.

More modules might be added later. For some i am waiting for new hooks to be implemented in RC3.

Currently Supported Modules:

PM Workbench - Report PM

This Module adds a Report PM icon to the postbit when users are reading a PM. The reports and send to the PM Folder of the
userid defined to receive them. Administrators who are given access can read the reports, the original PM, and add notes to them.

Features:
- Access to the PM Reports is controlled in your config.php for added security
- Add report button to PM's, no template edit needed.
- Usersw can give a reason for the report.
- Reported PM's can be seen without modifications to them (PM's are not forwarded, but just added to the inbox of the report userid).
- PM's are fully parsed
- Notes can be added to reports.


PM Workbench - Read/Search Private Messages

This Module let administrators who are given permission, search and read PM's

Features:
- Access to the PM's is controlled in your config.php for added security
- PM's can be searched for:
- Keyword (title and/or body)
- Username (sender/receiver/both, optional exact match)
- Send date after
- Send date before
- With a simple click read the PM and see who still have it in their folders.


PM Workbench - Performance Pack

Add extra indexes to the pmtext table for faster searching.


Known limitations:
The 'Report PM' module might not work on some heavily modified Styles. I will be (hopefully) posting another (beta) hack for that tomorrow.

Nope, it wasn't ImpEx.

I changed this in includes/adminfunctions_mh_pmwb.php:

	$row['totalpm'] = ($vbulletin->products['mh_pmwbrd'] ? "<a href=\"mh_pmwbrd.php?do=showpm&amp;u=$data[userid]\">$data[pmtotal]</a>" : $data['totalpm']);

To this:

	$row['pmtotal'] = ($vbulletin->products['mh_pmwbrd'] ? "<a href=\"mh_pmwbrd.php?do=showpm&amp;u=$data[userid]\">$data[pmtotal]</a>" : $data['pmtotal']);

It all works fine now..

marco can u describe the problem when you tryed it,so i can ask over at vb.com on this issue

[Marco van Herwaarden]

I never had chance to try it, since the Product Manager option is missing from your ACP menu. I don't know how you f...cked up your board like that, but i can't help you unless you fix your board first.

[Thug]

i dint mess up my board, was a fresh vbulletin install jus 2days ago
thats why i wanted you to just type the prblem here so vb could look into it

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Well i already told you the problem. But this is not an unedited board!

[Thug]

i sorted product manager
but the 1st and last file of products refuse to be uploaded

[Marco van Herwaarden]

You are now uploading them as products? What error you are getting now?

Hi Marco,

Is there a way to make it accessible for supermoderators?

Regards

[Marco van Herwaarden]

You would need to give them access to your ACP, and include their userid's in the config.
