Forward a post to another member, via PM!
2.2.x | by Velocd
This hack, as well all my other vB2 hacks, I no longer provide support for (being I run vB3 and it's too much hassel to debug vB2). When vB3 Release Candidate comes out, by request I might convert some of my hacks.

What is it?
Well, it's been since summer when I released a hack, and today I decided it was long enough.
This hack will allow you to quickly forward a post within a thread to another member via PM, by just filling in some quick fields (such as the username, and PM subject).
I've been wanting to do this hack for some time, as I'm such a lazy person when it comes to using PM to notify members of certain posts. This hack helps a bunch, believe me
Screenshots? Demo?
No demo, but you can find a screenshots in the next post.
Instructions?
See install.txt, inside the zip.
If you use this hack, please remember to click install!
Suggestions and comments are always welcomed.
I have one suggestion myself, for vBulletin.org to install this hack!
Or even a variation of it

I tried to have the reciepient the default $username. But obviously my coding is not up to snuff.
Anyone have any ideas how this would be done? A straight:
PHP Code:
<tr>
<td bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}">
<normalfont><b>Recipient:</b></normalfont><br><smallfont>Enter a valid username of the person who shall recieve this.</smallfont></td>
<td bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}"><input type="text" size="25" maxlength="15" name=($username)></td>
</tr>
I've upgraded it to include an "Alert Moderators" checkbox. I hate how the normal Alert system works by sending emails out. Now when people Alert the Mods through this system, it writes a post into a thread in the mod/admin room.
Other than that, I've added more post checking so that it retrieves the username and post title from the post table instead of relying on the name to be passed via the link.
