Moderator Hack !!!

astrofool

Can it please be added back in ?

I know I've brought up this before, but not being able to assign access rights and see who can access and who can't access the forum right now is getting more and more important, and stifling any growth of the forums.

can it be added back in?

thank you for reading

SantaHoe

Yes!
Pretty please uncle Cloud / aunty Dev.

Like this, you mean?

astrofool

sort of, but with the private community boards you used to be able to edit each access mask individually, and also see which users could see the board, at the moment, none of that is available, I have the option to ban a user (doesn't say which forum, I am mod of 2 boards) and thats it, cloud said he was going to add the moderator hack back in to allow this, me just trying to remind him

Bard

oh - okay

I AGREE WITH ASTROFOOL!

Tried using the "Edit Access Masks" option to ban my brothers account from IrelandOFFLine forum (just testing). It came back with "You may not edit access for someone who is not a normal registered user!"

He IS a normal registered user and his username is Bounty Hunter.

... - so, eh... it doesn't seem to be working.

PS: any chance of a banlist in the mod cp?... so we can see at a glance who we've banned and selectively unban if required?

cheers cloud

just a simple question I hope. we had a user called barnz, I clicked the "ban" option on him, hoping that would stop access to the boards, what does the ban do? because now I can see his access masks, and he still has access, but am unable to edit them, it comes up saying he is not a normal user.

Does me clicking ban ban him from all boards? and if so does that mean that I could theoretically ban anyone? (bit powerful for a lowly community moderator )

astrofool

You may not ban someone who is not a normal registered user!


I get that same error^

it seems to be that clicking ban does something to that user, mmm, view "Devore" clicks ban

astrofool

that option used to be there bard, where u typed in the forums id and it gave a list of all people who could access the board, or in your case would be banned from it

astrofool

aye, I just tried stopping access for another user as a test and got the same

You may not ban someone who is not a normal registered user!

Weird - Should be okay now.

Are you a Doctor yet, Cloud?

Cloud

Not until the summer at least Phil!

I've changed it so you can modify access for all users except administrators and super moderators. The old check was to see if the user was not a registered user (usergroupid 2) or else if the user was a moderator.

Should work, if not post here.

echo "<p>You may not edit access for administrators or super moderators!</p>";
$stop=1;
}

Cloud

Any problems?

astrofool
