User can Empty All PMs

This is really simple. I was amazed when I couldn't find it here. All it does is empties a user's PM box when they click a link and say "Yes, I'm sure"...

If you're good, you can get this installed in less than a minute. Otherwise, it may take two minutes!

You can alter it so that it appears as one of the Move/Forward/Delete buttons...you can also make an image for it (new message, pm tracking, pm to buddies, folders)

Really simple. That's all.

I wish there was a way that you could create a "Trash or Delete" folder and have a button/link to delete all the pms in that folder. Just like how emails are handled. Because sometimes I like to keep a few pms in a "saved" folder and since these types of hacks delete everything you can't save any pms. Didn't know if this could be possible.

Try this... this will add a new folder to your members pm box called "Saved Messages"... when clicking on the link with the edits below... it will remove all pms that are NOT in the saved messages folder Note that you must have installed the above hack before this will work.

[high]Sorry But i have to do two different versions of my little hack here... the one in this post is for people who have installed this hack... Improved PM Folderview.[/high]

In privfolder template...

Find:

PHP Code:

      <tr>
       <td bgcolor="#13486D" width="100%"><normalfont><a href="private.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&folderid=-1">Sent Items</a></font></td>
      </tr> 

Add After:

PHP Code:

      <tr>
       <td bgcolor="#13486D" width="100%"><normalfont><a href="private.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&folderid=-2">Saved Messages</a></font></td>
      </tr> 

Find:

PHP Code:

<option value="0">$inboxname</option> 

Add After:

PHP Code:

<option value="-2">Saved Messages</option> 

In private.php

Thats great ranger2kxlt I will have to take a look at this. I totally forgot about saying that I had the Improved Folder View Hack installed you must have read my mind... But I will take a look at this, it will be great...this way my users can keep those pms they want saved. I say release this a hack so that everyone knows about this.
