#228138 - 11/22/02 01:38 AM [6.2] Private Moderation 1.3
JoshPet I type Like navaho Registered: 11/29/01 Posts: 11330 Loc: Charlotte, NC Add to del.icio.us Digg it	Mod Name / Version - Private Moderation 1.3 <br />��Version 1.1 blocks the users ability to edit their profile if they are in private moderation. 1/23/03 <br />��Version 1.2 offers the option to block the sending of Private Messages. 1/28/03 <br />��Version 1.3 adds in the functionality to be able to search and find users who are in private moderation - thanks Raconteur <br /> <br />Description - This allows you to put a user into "Private Moderation" where all their posts will require approval from an admin or mod. An alternative to banning...allowing their good posts to get through. Almost like a probation. <br /> <br />Working Under - UBB.Threads 6.2, 6.2.1 <br /> <br />Pre-requisites - none <br /> <br />Author - JoshPet - www.joshuapettit.com <br />��for discussions and bug reports come to www.threadsdev.com <br /> <br />Credits - Raconteur <br /> <br />Files Altered - addpost.php, ubbthreads.php, /admin/selectoption.php, admin/selectusers.php, admin/showusers.php, includes/selectusers.js <br /> <br />Database Altered - 1 field added to the w3t_Users table (U_PrivateModeration) with a yes/no value. <br /> <br />New Files - /admin/moderateuser.php, /admin/unmoderateuser.php <br /> <br />Any other info - Only Admins can enter or remove a user from private moderation. Edit their profile, and you'll see the option right below the "ban this user" option. Remove them from moderation the same way. The User and All Admins/Mods receive a PM when they are added or removed from Moderation. <br /> <br />Backup your files and database before doing any modifing of you code. <br /> <br />Haven't done much testing yet myself. But all seems to be OK with initial testing. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <br /> Attachments 60856-PrivateModeration1.3.zip (133 downloads) _________________________ Joshua Pettit www.JoshuaPettit.com My abilities are for hire.

JoshPet I type Like navaho Registered: 11/29/01 Posts: 11330 Loc: Charlotte, NC	There are some tweaks to this mod, that I could see useful, and would write up if anyone was interested.<br /><br />As an alternative to approving user registrations.. you could set it up that New Users are in the Private Moderation for their first X posts...or until the Admin "approves" them for live posting.... Let people start there and earn their trust. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> _________________________ Joshua Pettit www.JoshuaPettit.com My abilities are for hire.

ksanuk Member Registered: 02/06/02 Posts: 297 Loc: Bangkok, Thailand	Hi,<br /><br />Great mod.<br /><br />I do have a request though <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /><br /><br />Could this be modified to work on a forum by forum basis and then allowing not just the Admin, but also the moderators to approve posts?<br /><br />Reason for asking is that I have one area on my board in which tensions seem to flare up at times, yet the same poster that would need moderating in there might be well behaved in other areas.<br /><br />Sanuk!<br />

JoshPet I type Like navaho Registered: 11/29/01 Posts: 11330 Loc: Charlotte, NC	Moderators are allowed to approve posts in their forum. Currently only admins can put a user in, or take a user out of private moderation. But anyone who can normally approve posts can approve them. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /><br /><br />This isn't fancy... but if you wanted it to work in a specific board only....<br /><br />Where you normally add this in addpost.php:<br /><pre><font class="small">code:</font><hr><br />// -------------------------<br />// Private Moderation - by JoshPet<br /> if ($user['U_PrivateModeration'] == "yes") {<br /> $Approved = "no";<br /> } <br /></pre><hr><br /><br />Try changing it to this:<br /><pre><font class="small">code:</font><hr><br />// -------------------------<br />// Private Moderation - by JoshPet<br /> if (($user['U_PrivateModeration'] == "yes") && ($Board =="keywordofboardhere")) {<br /> $Approved = "no";<br /> } <br /></pre><hr><br /><br />I think that'll do it. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> _________________________ Joshua Pettit www.JoshuaPettit.com My abilities are for hire.

pootlecat Power User Registered: 07/24/02 Posts: 83 Loc: Canada	Ok - I think I have a little problem <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> <br />Made all the edits required and can see the new link when I edit a user. <br />The problem is that I don't think the username is getting passed on properly. I tried to put a user in Private Moderation and got the following PM: <br /> <br />"Webmaster has put into Private Moderation. All their posts will require approval." <br /> <br />Username missing I assume? Any help or suggestions would be great! <br /> <br />p.s. forgot to say that if you go back to edit that user again the option to put them into moderation is still there. It doesn't say click to remove them as I assume it should? Edited by pootlecat (01/25/03 09:49 PM) _________________________ Never heard of Neopets.com? If so then you won't like my site ;P

I haven't test this yet... .but this should disable the Private Message ability (sending) if they are in Private Moderation. <br /> <br />Please let me know how it works. <br />

Code:

 <br />OPTIONAL STEPS - To restrict the Sending of Private Messages: <br /> <br />########################## <br />## Open sendprivate.php ## <br />########################## <br /> <br />######################################## <br /># Find this: <br /># <br /> <br />   $user = $userob -&gt; authenticate("U_TextCols,U_TextRows,U_Preview"); <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /># <br /># Change to this: <br /># <br /> <br />   $user = $userob -&gt; authenticate("U_TextCols,U_TextRows,U_Preview,U_PrivateModeration"); <br /> <br />	// ----------------------------------- <br />	// Block if they are in Private Moderation <br />      if ($user['U_PrivateModeration'] == "yes") { <br />		   $html = new html; <br />	       $html -&gt; not_right('You cannot send Private Messages while you are in Private Moderation.',$Cat); <br />	  } <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />########################### <br />## Open mess_handler.php ## <br />########################### <br /> <br />######################################## <br /># Find this: <br /># <br /> <br />   $user = $userob -&gt; authenticate("U_Groups,U_EReplies,U_TextCols,U_TextRows,U_Preview"); <br />   $Username = $user['U_Username']; <br />   $Password = $user['U_Password']; <br /> <br /> <br /># <br /># Change to this: <br /># <br /> <br />   $user = $userob -&gt; authenticate("U_Groups,U_EReplies,U_TextCols,U_TextRows,U_Preview,U_PrivateModeration"); <br />   $Username = $user['U_Username']; <br />   $Password = $user['U_Password']; <br /> <br />	// ----------------------------------- <br />	// Block if they are in Private Moderation <br />      if ($user['U_PrivateModeration'] == "yes") { <br />		   $html = new html; <br />	       $html -&gt; not_right('You cannot send Private Messages while you are in Private Moderation.',$Cat); <br />	  } <br />
