Will try this in the morning. This is actually on my request list

Usergroupid 7 is not necessarily a moderator, as that group is a group added by the admin. Moderators are determined by there inclusion in the moderator table outside of Admins at usergroup 6 and Super Mods at usergroup 5.

Would be better (may add a query) to use this as it would catch all moderators in addition to hiding options from moderators in forums that they do not moderate.

Code:

// Hide admin options to members
if (ismoderator($thread[forumid)) {
  eval("\$forum_adminoptions = \"".gettemplate('forumdisplay_admin_options')."\";");
} else {
  $forum_adminoptions = "";
}

I wasn't thinking of moderators from another forums. Silly me.

Thanks Freddie, package updated.

Nevermind that, stupid typo on my part that i hadn't noticed. Fixed now

Awesome script and keeps my users from being confused about what those extra options are! Very useful

I did everything I was supposed to and it only works with my default template.

Not sure why it doesn't work.

it just prints nothing for the other templates. Even though I am logged in as admin.

I'm not sure either. I need some more info or even better - the link to your pages.

is there a way to uses this under vb 1.1.x also? the varialbe "ismoderator" dosn't work

I'm not going to hack this for versions lower than 2.0 because of time. This hack should be compatible with all 2.0 betas.

Don't find the utility of this hack!
