That's great. Good to hear it's working. Thank for using this mod.

Hi,

and again a great mod 
I saw it in the 2.0 version and wanted to have it too, now I have it, thanky JohnyB! 

I'm a dumb with php-coding, that's why I asking for some help.
I'm using the User Online Mod and tried to move the MCLegend under the User-Online Mod, but I wasn't to able to move it to the place I want to have it.
Can you help me please? 

I think I got it.
I found out, after a lot of tries, where I have to put the code and what I have to
remove.

I made this:

I searched in $themedir/BoardIndex.template.php for

Code Select Expand


        <td class="windowbg" width="20" valign="middle" align="center">
            <img src="', $settings['images_url'], '/icons/online.gif" alt="', $txt['uot_users_online_today'], '" border="0" />
        </td>

and replaced it with

Code Select Expand


        <td rowspan="2" class="windowbg" width="20" valign="middle" align="center">
            <img src="', $settings['images_url'], '/icons/online.gif" alt="', $txt['uot_users_online_today'], '" border="0" />
        </td>

I add at the end of this

Code Select Expand

<td class="windowbg2" valign="top">
                        <b><a href="', $scripturl, '?action=pm">', $txt[159], '</a></b>
                        <div class="smalltext">
                            ', $txt[660], ' ', $context['user']['messages'], ' ', $context['user']['messages'] == 1 ? $txt[471] : $txt[153], '.... ', $txt[661], ' <a href="', $scripturl, '?action=pm">', $txt[662], '</a> ', $txt[663], '
                        </div>
                    </td>
                </tr>';

            if (!empty($modSettings['arrange_mclegend']))

                        <span class="smalltext">';
                        foreach($context['mcl_group'] AS $key => $dummy)
                            for ($i = 0; $i < count($context['mc_legend']); $i++)   
                                if ($context['mc_legend'][$i]['id'] == $context['mcl_group'][$key])
                                {
                                   echo '[', $context['mc_legend'][$i]['link'], ']&nbsp;&nbsp;';
                                   continue;
                                }
                         echo '
                     </span>
                    </td>
                </tr>';

In my test forum it works as you can see at the pic, but please note, I'm a dumb
in php and don't know if it will work in your forum. 

[coolcrustycat]

Thanks for the mod - it's the first time that I've tried using any other than the forum software updates, so I was 'just a little nervous' .

However, after reading through all of this thread, it seems that the original reason for using it, won't work.

What I wanted to do, was to allow all of the moderators (who are hidden when online), see how many other mods are likely to be online. Unfortunately, Mods don't have access to the ACP as only Admin modify membergroups, and some earlier posts seem to have said that we wouldn't therefore be able to offer them the facility provided by this mod.

Is there anyway around this (especially for the php illiterate)?

Otherwise - it works great!

[Bulakbol]

@Manu0372. Looks cool. Cool color too. I'll try your code and see if it doesn't break on IE, FF and Opera. I'll get back to you.

@coolcrustycat. Are talking about 1.1.4 version and global moderators? Do you want your global moderators to see the groups in the legend?

If you want your global moderators to see invisible users, why not give them permission to moderate forum members? The problem is, they will see the IP's too. 


<edit>
@manu0372. Yes. It's a good location for the Legend if you have the Users Online Today mod installed. And you got the coding right. 
I moved it outside the bracket like this and it works very well.

Aye - it is the 1.1.4 version. Global and another Mod groups viewing ips isn't a problem, and yes we do want them to be able to see the groups in the legend, but without having access to the ACP.

The problem with allowing them to moderate members, is that we don't want:

access to registration management
access to the view/delete members screen
activate accounts
get approval notifications and approve accounts

These are functions that Admins use - (sites for members with mental health problems can sometimes get 'heated' ) which restricts us from allowing these functions to non-admin.

Hi coolcrustycat. If you want certain members only to see invisible logged-in members, we'll try to do something. Install the GroupOnlineStatus then give your member a permission and we'll make that member see invisibles. In Sources/BoardIndex.php, look for

Code Select Expand

elseif (empty($row['showOnline']) && !allowedTo('moderate_forum'))

and replace with

Code Select Expand

elseif (empty($row['showOnline']) && !allowedTo('hide_online_status'))

Try that if that's the one you are after.

Regarding the list of members in a group, SMF 2.0 Beta 3 has it but not 1.1.4. I think we need database query.

[coolcrustycat]

So basically, we would be able to select the people who are mods, and allow them to see all of the hidden members (as Admins currently can)?

That'd be a fantastic help.

Yes coolcrustycat, I think that's what you want. Have you tried what I told you to edit? Did it work?

[coolcrustycat]

Installed the GroupOnlineStatus without problem.

Changed the line in the BoardIndex.php as you've suggested:

Code Select Expand

elseif (empty($row['showOnline']) && !allowedTo('hide_online_status'))

Ticked the relevant boxes re allowing each membergroup the option to be hidden.

Mods still can't see other hidden mods - but I feel as though there might be a tick or something missing as it doesn't quite make sense in my head?

[Bulakbol]

Hi Coolcrustycat. I tried it again and it works on my testboard.  Does some of your mods see hidden online and some don't? 

[coolcrustycat]

Neither of the groups assigned as Moderators can see anybody who's hidden. What I don't understand, is why they should though, as their groups have only the same options at remaining hidden (or not) - wouldn't the code need to be changed for the specific mod groups that we want to be able to view all like admin can?

[Bulakbol]

Hi coolcrustycat. Why did you allow them to hide their online status anyway? 
It's a permission thing.  I allowed special member to hide thier online status but I don't allow them to see hidden members. Only me, the admin.

Got an error lol

Fatal error: packageinstall() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/home/jade/public_html/forums/Packages/temp/MCLegendDB2B3.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/jade/public_html/forums/Sources/Packages.php on line 883

I don't have trouble installing any other mods, and I have not changed anything.

I cant be bothered manually installing it lol .

@Joomlamz. Thanks for the translation. I have question about them though. In the English help file, the search position is <search postion="before"> but you use "end". Is it okay to use like that? And also the second one is for "ModSettings". The one you gave me is for ManageSettings. I don't know if ModSettings exist in the language files. Please verify. Thanks.

@klra. Cool. That's great.  Thanks for using this mod.

@Coldy316. What happened when you install the mod? Did you get any error?


@Alundra. If your server denied adding something in your database, just enter your groups id in Admin -> Feature and Options. Under Options tab, enter id's in  "Membergroup legend display arrangements".  Let me know if it does not work.

<edit @Alundra> If the mod won't install because of the the error, unzip the package, remove the

Code Select Expand

<code>MCLegendDB2B3.php</code>
from package-info.xml, re-zip the package and install. If there's no error, you can then enter your group id. Don't forget to turn-off the build-in legend in Admin -> Current Theme, and untick the checkbox for "Show group key on board index".

We have to let Mods remain hidden to stop certain members taking advantage of the fact that there mightn't be many mods online at that particular moment (feelings run high sometimes on the forum when members are stressed). 

Members are given the option of remaining hidden to help remain anonymous - after a while people can be recognised by writing styles and content, and some of the issues causing members to join in the first place can be extremely delicate.

All we need is to able to assign mod groups the ability to see hidden members

This option is available in permission setting, but it's 'packed up' with a group of others that include somewhat delicate admin tasks. You can find it in Member Administration -> Moderate forum members or something like it.
