Disable IP Address Viewing for Mods and Super-Mods everywhere on Vb Forums ?

[SaN-DeeP]

How can we disable IP Viewing for Moderators and Super-Moderators everywhere on forums ?

Disable IP Address viewing even from Admincp and modcp.

Looking for a hack/modification for same, i assume a few more members mite be interested in same thing.
We are planning to appoint lots of new moderators, so a IP security @ begining would be a nice feature for privacy issues of members.

Being able to view IP addresses is an integral part of being a moderator, any member worried about a sites moderators having access to them is either insanely paranoid, and shouldn't be on the net at all - or more probably - has something to hide.

As posted above, our exisiting mods have the ability to IP Viewing completely.. (all are supermoderators ) since we are appoiting around 10+ New Moderators on a trial basis (as its a tech forum) , we prefer to hide the IP Address of our users for 10 days..

Admincp -> Usergroups -> usergroup manager -> mods -> select no for "Can View IP Addresses".

I would assume that globally disables it...if not, it should

I know this thread is almost two years old!!!!! But I have good reason to resurrect it.

I tried to disable my Supermoderators from being able to view IP addys in the Usergroup Manager but even if you put no, they can still see it.

The reason I ask is that I installed that Anonymous Posting hack and wanted to have a little fun with my supermods and disable it temporarily. Why does that function in the usergroup manager appear to not work? Just wondering and if this is an overide function then is there a hack to disable IP viewing?

Thanks.

Because the issupermoderator overrides it, as a super moderator basicly has all settings set to yes for forum moderation, which includes viewing ips.

Thanks Zachery for the quick reply.

issupermoderator? is that a php.file
I'm new to hacks and coding and wouldn't likely mess with that.

Are moderators also overriden as well? If I set them to not view IP's will they not have the ability? Thanks.

No, its not a php file, its a permission setting at the bottom of the usergroup options, its above administrator. Its what makes a super mod a super mod./
