I'm looking for a way for Staff can add a member to a Moderation Watch List. There would be a section in the Mod CP or somewhere else of all the members on the Watch List. Pretty much this would be a way to keep tabs on certain members, as well as their posts.

Thanks!

Clone the user-group that you use for your registered users and call it "Watch List" (same permissions).

1.) Set ... Always Moderate This Group's Post: YES
2.) Change the users Primary User-group to "Watch List" usergroup.

This should get you basically setup.

That's what I was thinking of doing, however, I'm looking for it to be more in depth. I'd also like my Moderators and other Staff to be able to change them as well.

What do you mean assign it Moderators?

Sorry, I answer some of these questions in the middle of my busy day, between phone calls. Sometimes, I do not have enough time for my thoughts. I just type.

In this case, I have no idea what I was saying about the moderators in that sentence. So just ignore it. I erased it from my post as to not confuse others. Thanks

Question: Won't the members see though they're on the Watch List, and won't they be able to leave the group?

This is a non programming, simple method that works.

Glad it helped.

If you display what user-group they are in then of course they will know. I do not believe by default vbulletin displays their user-group. On my boards this is security level information.

So I tried with a test account, and the Watch List group showed up as a permission group. I was able to leave the group since it was a public usergroup.

How are you leaving the group? What page are you on? Type out the last part of your URL?

Are you referring to (by any chance), "Social Groups" or "Forums"?
