#139648 - 04/01/01 08:03 AM [6.0x] MegaMod [Finished]
Al Bundy Junior Member Registered: 03/29/01 Posts: 28 Loc: The Netherlands Add to del.icio.us Digg it	I just finished the MegaMod hack for UBB 6.01. It took me 3 days, but I'm very happy it's working now <img src="smile.gif" border="0" alt="" /> For the people who don't know what a MegaModerator is: A MegaModerator can moderate in all forums in your board. What the hack does: It adds 4 MegaModerator input boxes in the Moderator Settings section of the control panel. You just add them like normal moderators. In your Miscellaneous settings you can specify the status for your MegaMod. You can download the hack here: http://albundy.dhs.org/ubbhacks/megamod.txt Already tested succesfully on 6, 6.01, 6.02, 6.03

The Donut Member Registered: 03/17/00 Posts: 236 Loc: Amarillo, Texas	Woo. I might install this one later. Hope this version actually works. lol. Webdaddie: Not much. To add stars for MegaMod, just add this in your stars code: Code: code: right after the admin stars, and before the moderator stars. just replce $thesestars with whatever your stars variable is, then replace megamod.gif with whatever your megamod gif(s) will be.

This is what calls the files: Code: code: I'm not sure what I'm changing here when it calls: $thesestars

The Donut Member Registered: 03/17/00 Posts: 236 Loc: Amarillo, Texas	elsif ($user_profile[8] eq "MegaModerator") { $thesestars = $MegaModStarURL x $vars_misc{MegaModStarNum}; $star_status = "$vars_misc{MegaModeratorTitle}"; add that after your admin stars. scratch what I told you earlier. I'm not using the hack that you're using for stars, so you'll have to add a mega moderator star check in the file where that stuff is. I'm just naturally confusing, sorry.

I will always try to do something with the stars hack, but I don't hav much time at this moment... Btw I'm sorry my testing board is in Dutch, it's just because i do all the hacks for a UBB on a big Dutch internetsite, so I have an exact copy running so i can copy all files to that server when I finish a hack

stk Junior Member Registered: 04/03/01 Posts: 4	I have found a Major Bug: cp_forums.cgi ------------- Find: if ($Status ne 'Administrator') { $modprof[8] = 'Moderator'; Recplace by: if (($Status ne 'Administrator') \|\| ($Status ne 'MegaModerator')) { $modprof[8] = 'Moderator'; This should be replaced by unless (($Status eq 'Administrator') \|\| ($Status eq 'MegaModerator')) { this would be also possible with if (($Status ne 'Administrator') && ($Status ne 'MegaModerator')) { but the unless thing is clearer Now to the old one, if you have this bug all your Admins who are Moderators in some Forums will be cut down to normal Admins without Admin rights. If you are allready in the Trap open your Admin Member file per ftp or whatever and replace the Term Moderator with Administrator Good Luck, stk [ April 03, 2001: Message edited by: stk ]

Al Bundy Junior Member Registered: 03/29/01 Posts: 28 Loc: The Netherlands	I found the mistake, too, i used \|\| instead of &&... But when i found out about that I was at my work and when I got home I forgot to fix it Edit: I fixed it now... Edit 2: Now I look at my own code, i see the line doesn't have to be changed. First I did, but later I found out I didn't need to change that, and i lacked updating my documentation. I scanned my documentation for more bugs like that, but I didn't find anymore, so it has to be ok now [ April 03, 2001: Message edited by: Al Bundy ] [ April 03, 2001: Message edited by: Al Bundy ]

Would it be good an addon hack that sort of displayed the megamodaerators on the main page of the site? _________________________ I have created for you, an Owl. It is a good Owl. It is The Owl.

If you just search for Moderators, MegaModerators turn up in the search results, too.
And if you want to search for MegaModerators only, you only have to do this:

In cp_user_search_form.pl, find:

I also put this in the megamod.txt, because it might come in handy.

Al Bundy Junior Member Registered: 03/29/01 Posts: 28 Loc: The Netherlands	I just found a little bug. If you make a megamoderator an Admin, and after that you take away the Admin rights, he will become a Member, Junior Member, or Moderator. It's 0.21 here right now, and I'm very tired, so I will take a look at this when I wake up again

alpha2503 Junior Member Registered: 04/17/01 Posts: 4 Loc: Hannover	I think I've found another major bug in the hack but I don't know how to remove it... ! When you've installed the Hack, the authorisation System for the private forums will be damaged because if you authorisize a MOD to have access in ONE private forum, he'll have access to all ones ! This is only possible as a MOD or maybe a MegaMOD ! A normal user only has access to the forum you authorisized him for ! Try to test it in the TESTFORUM ! There it's the same ! I hope you can help me and you can understand my bad english ! _________________________ � [ PRaO Admin ]
