Yes Josh, the .DStore file comes from the zipper of Macintosh.

I added a member to private moderation and it stopped me from sending private messages also. Mind lookin at sendprivate.php.

I removed the file and put the original back and it didn't stop me which is to be expected.

Ok somehow I got myself in private moderation along with my other admin user name... now wonder it stopped me. I look at my Edit users feature and it doesn't allow me to unprivate mod myself.. grr.

Hmmmm.....

In the moderateuser and unmoderateuser.php files.... try adding this below the require main.inc.php line near the top:

Code
<br />// -------------<br />// Get the input<br />   $Cat  = get_input("Cat","get");<br />   $User	= get_input("User","get");<br />


See if that solves it. [/]

Im getting an error on this line now!!!

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: get_input() in /home/httpd/html/4x4/forum/admin/moderateuser.php on line 28

Any idea what I should do?

I figured its a version thing, im running 6.1.1 so I took some of the stuff out, edited this and that, and got it going... A little different, but i got it going...

Works great though! THANKS!

Yeah,

The get_input function isn't used in versions before 6.2 so it's not needed.

[]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[/]

Have you done this? I would like to do this - is it pretty 'change intensive', or not really that much to change?

Sorry, I missed replying to this for a few days.

If you are running my private moderation mod.... what I would first do is change the database so that new users are in Private Moderation by default. The easiest way to do this, is to alter the default in the database:

ALTER TABLE w3t_Users
CHANGE U_PrivateModeration U_PrivateModeration CHAR(3) DEFAULT 'yes'


Then as you see new posters in moderation.... if they seem OK - click their username and remove them from private moderation.

You might also want to alter the welcome PM so that it tells people that "all new users posts are moderated during a probation period. When the moderators deem fit, you will be removed from moderation and can post live." Something like that.

Then of course if you needed to put someone back into private moderation, you could do so.

Then if you needed something to display a list of who was in private moderation.... and had x number of posts and had been registered for at least x days, then you could review the list and turn people on if you wanted.

OR.. you could alter addpost.php so that if their post count was = 10 or whatever, it updated U_PrivateModeration = 'no' thus turned them off at post 10.

It could be expanded in quite a useful way.

It should be. I know I've used it on 6.3.x. So should be fine. Might need to alter the instructions a bit, but should be no problems.

Will this work with 6.4? Or is there similar functionality for this built into 6.4?

Is anyone planning to update this for 6.5? I found it to be a very useful feature. I am taking a look at it, but the admin files have been redesigned for 6.5, which makes it more difficult to update.

Am I the only one that appreciates this fine modification of JoshPet's? I have looked into updating it, but it seems a bunch of stuff has been moved around into different files which I can't locate. Maybe someone out there is fluent in the 6.5 code enough to know where?

I desperately need this mod for 6.5 lol - too many 13 year old kids on my board who think bumping posts is the way to go *sigh*.
Pleaaaaaaase can you update it Josh?
