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:
Note: You should really test that the hack is working and that you like it before doing anything else

Great hack!
This certanly makes it a lot easier to see if a mod isn't around for some reason.
I have also modified it slightly, to show in the percent read column:
"25 of 76, 33%" or "12 of 13, 92%" because the pure percent can be a bit misleading, and it helps to see if the mod is just not paying attention, of if they are swamped, and a co-mod may be needed.
thats a nice modification you made there care to share ?
Kentarus, how about adding all the fields which can be configured in admincp for this hack to the modmanagement.php ? and a better way to get the alerts in thread or email instead of receiving huge no. of pm alerts ??
$moderatorInfo[$userid]['readcurrent']." of ".$moderatorInfo[$userid]['readtotal'].", ".round(($moderatorInfo[$userid]['readcurrent']/$moderatorInfo[$userid]['readtotal'])*100);
I was going to make soething like this but yours is just so much better im not going to bother. Well done this is truly an excellent hack and deserves HoTM
A few days ago, I upgraded from 3.01 to 3.03. I hadn't check that hack until today, when I noticed that all numbers in the statistics page were zero. The only column showing meaningful data, is the Last Login. All the others have zeros. Any idea what could be wrong?
Also, the settings were all lost, maybe in the initial file I had downloaded, the volatile was not set properly. Anyhow, I re-run the installation script with some mods and re enter them, but I still can't figure out why all the stats are zero. I know that my mods did some moving and deleting yestarday, and I did too, but it just doesn't show up.
Any ideas?

P.S. : Never mind, it looks as if the templates have changed somewhere along the line. Deleted them and recreated them and now it works.
