Need help!(About membergroups)

[nunopitbull]

Ok, so here's my problem, i'm using advanced settings on permissions, so i can have a membergroup having permission only for that board.
Ex: Portuguese Moderator, Downloads Moderator etc, and each one has it own image.

Now everything was great, untill a member told me that it's not showing the (Moderator: Nick) on the places. So i thought to myself:

Well, let me go on Admin -> Boards -> Modify(Portuguese) -> Moderators: Additional members to have moderation privileges on this board. Note that administrators don't have to be listed here. -> Select wannabe.

So i thought it was going to do the trick, BUT it replaced wannabe's "badge" for a Moderator one and his "membergroup title" changed aswell. I thought on removing the image on the Moderator membergroup, and it worked, the SMF 1.1.10 used the Language Moderator badge. But the title keeps "Moderator" and not "Portuguese Moderator" as it is called the membergroup. Now why that hapens if I have wannabe seted as primary group: Portuguese Moderator?

Any help is apreciated, really!

thanks,
Nuno!

EDIT: i tried deleting the name of the membergroup "Moderator" but it replaces me for a post-count membergroup title... not even the primary membergroup:/

It sounds like it's working as it should be. If you created a custom moderator group, it's not the same as the "board" moderator. So when you assigned him to that specific board as moderator, it will change his status to be moderator for that board.

For the Portuguese Moderator badge, it should still apply in all the other boards as long as you didn't add him as a board moderator for them specifically.

Well, but that ain't solving my problem still

I want to keep the advance permissions(so i can have a badge for each membergroup that moderaters diff parts on forum) and have a (Moderator: nick) like if I was assigning it from Real moderator stuff.

I tried doing it manually, like adding in the board description (Moderator: blaba) but BBcode doesnt works. Any solutions? please :x

[nunopitbull]

Nothing said untill now solves my problem:x

Position:     Portuguese Moderator

That's what shows in the profile of "wannabe".

Now my question is: I have "wannabe" as Primary Group: Portuguese Moderator.
After that, i added him as that Board moderator(so that people can see the (moderator: wannabe) on that board.

But then, the Group Moderator(Local board mod) overwrote the image It has as a Portuguese membergroup, so i went to moderator group and deleted the pic, and it replaced for the Portuguese one. Ok by now. But i also deleted the Moderator Group name as i thought it was gonna have Portuguese Moderator, but instead, it now has the name has a post-count group. (Grade: D) Now, if the position showed is from Portuguese Moderator, why hes name is a post-count group?:|

Noone can me help?

[nunopitbull]

Althouth, i wonder ... I have this idea....

Can you guys help me out giving some "tweak"? instead of Going on Admin -> Board -> Modify -> Choose the local moderator for that board, when doing that action, it DOESNT inserts the member on that membergroup BUT only makes him visible saying on the board (moderator: blabla).

Please that would be what i want! Since nothing else working!

EDIT: I attach the ManageBoards.template.php of the default theme, i guess it's the one it might need? (I'm using OverView theme from DZ studio + SMF 1.1.10)

[nunopitbull]

Please help me out

Unfortunately it doesn't work like that. The membergroups system is a little more complex than that.

Aw damn, don't say that :/ I was so ansious to just delete the effect of ading that person to that membergroup. :|, theres no possible work-around? :x

[Arantor]

Not really since they're moved into a sort-of member group when you add them to the board as moderator, which triggers a special permission group all on its own - if you go into Membergroups, you'll see the Moderator group (group 3). This isn't a real group, you can't assign people to it -- except by configuring them as such in the board panel.

This group is unique; it has so many tweaks throughout the code to make it work like that.

[nunopitbull]

So there's no way I can have some tweak that will cause the same effect has having the  name of the person moderating that board (Moderator: xxx) ?

For example, making that box as the effect of just adding the (Moderator: xxx) style? :x

[Arantor]

One thought: you can add it into the board description itself.

You could even go one further and make the board description HTMLified:

Code Select Expand

This is my board's description<br /><span class="smalltext">Moderator: <a href="index.php?action=profile;u=12345">Joe Bloggs</a></span>

[nunopitbull]

Well, i added it, and i thought to myself: How, what an awsome solution, really looks like i wanted! But then, i noticed still something missing :x, look at attach. Can't that part be made?

You would have to manually edit the code from MessageIndex.template.php for your theme.

Where and how exactly? :< aw nvm, seems to many ways :|

[Arantor]

If you're interested in doing this you'd have to attach the file here for me to edit.

[nunopitbull]

My theme doesnt has a MessageIndex.template.php ... i'll post the one on default theme(im using overviwe theme)
