Recently I discovered that moderators can make sticky posts in their moderated forums. I had thought it was admin only due to a post over at infopop, so I had wondered how a mod had done it on my board. I didn't like this, so I have tracked down the code to change this. I think it is just this one line, and it is real simple to make sticky posts admin only if you so choose.
In the editpost.php file, find this:
elseif ( ( ( ($user['U_Status'] == "Moderator") && $check) || ($user['U_Status'] == "Administrator") ) && ($Number == $Main) && (!$Sticky) ) {
and REMOVE this part:
( ($user['U_Status'] == "Moderator") && $check) ||
so it looks like this:
elseif ( ( ($user['U_Status'] == "Administrator") ) && ($Number == $Main) && (!$Sticky) ) {
Thats it!
