I am still getting errors in the log:

8: Undefined index: elgm4
File: /home/me/public_html/forum/Themes/default/Themes.template.php (main_above sub template - eval?)
Line: 577
   

8: Undefined index: mm_mm
File: /home/mepublic_html/forum/Themes/default/Themes.template.php (main_above sub template - eval?)
Line: 570

any ideas?

Dannii

Add the language entry I previously posted into modifications.english.php

as for mm_mm, it hasn't got anything to do with my mod.
"Never imagine yourself not to be otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise."

thanks, I think that might be the member map thing.  The lang entry seems to have fixed the error message - thanks :)

Hi,

Great mod but how can i use it whit other language then english?

Dannii

Unzip the package, and look at the Groups.english.php and Languages.xml file. Translate the changes made in those files.

If you send me the translations, I'll include them in the next release :)

Any plans to update this mod for use with 1.0.8?  I haven't used the mod with 1.0.7 yet, so I couldn't compare results if I tried it with 1.0.8.

Thanks!

Will you please update this to RC3...pretty please?   :D

It should work perfectly fine in 1.0.8 already.

I search all the filed can't find ;version_emulate=1.1-RC2. Can u explain it lite better?

Dannii

Add it straight to the end of your forum's url when you open the package manager page.

I'm still lost.  Plus I tried something last night only to crash my site/had to re-upload several files & re-add several mods.  So I think I'll wait 'til you're done.  ;)

Thanks eldacar!

Installed the package to 1.0.8 last night and all my testing appeared successful.  I had to create the new Groups button to match my button set, but that's all.

I did have one error message that I noticed in the error log that was around the time of testing, but it seemed like everything worked, anyway:

http://.../index.php?action=membergroups;sa=edit;id=9 (I removed the path info)
8: Undefined index: elgm_primary
File: forum/Sources/ManageMembers.php (I removed the root path info)
Line: 344

Mean anything to you?

I did have one suggestion - the Groups button appears all the time, even for Guests.  No groups appear in the window if you click the button and you're not the correct Moderator, but I guess I expected the Groups button wouldn't appear for Guests (ideally, only for the correct Moderator, but the code to accomplish that would probably be a nightmare!).

Otherwise, awesome mod!  Private boards will take my forum to a new level.

Dannii

There is a permission which says whether you can view the groups interface, and whether you can see the button.

I'll have a look into that error.

I was able to clear the permissions for all but the new membergroup, so only the new group sees the Groups button.  But I can't get it to show only for the Moderator of the new membergroup.  Only the moderator can see the interface details, so that's good.  Can you tell me what I missed in these testing steps?

1. I registered a new member that will be the Moderator (the actual member would have done this, first).
2. I created the new membergroup, setting the new member from step 1 as the Group Moderator.
3. I set the permissions for the new group the same as the Ungrouped Members (having set them as I liked earlier), then cleared the "View the Group Interface" from all groups except my new membergroup.
4. I added the private board, setting the access to only the new membergroup, and setting the board Moderator as the same person in step 2. (now I've set Group Moderator and Moderator of the board as same person. Are both steps necessary?
5. The private board didn't show for the Moderator, so I added him to the new membergroup.
6. I registered a new member, then logged in as the new group's Moderator and added the new member to the new membergroup.

I didn't see where I could hide the Group button from the new membergroup members that are not a Moderator, but otherwise everything seems to work as expected.  Was there anything I should've done differently?

Not your mod, but a related question; I'm a little confused by the n/a on the Moderator membergroup permissions.  Is it true that if I modify the permissions of the Moderator role, even though it's n/a, that it will save settings that apply to all Moderators in all boards throughout the forum (excluding Global Moderators)?

Thanks for all your help!

***Ooops!
I just noticed something strange.  In the Member's List, the member that I set as the Moderator of the new group, and of the private board, has it's Position listed as the new group name (I did add him to the group in step 5 above). But the new member that the Moderator (myself) added to the new group (via the group interface) is listed as a "newbie".  Is that the correct result?

When I click on packages...I get this: http://dawnswebdesigns.com/sg/index.php?action=packages

I've tried adding what you put after it & it did nothing.  Should I have put space between packages & ;

I tried to upload the package straight from the mod site...but when I clicked on install a pop up box appeared asking me if I want to open or save index.php.

Can I try to pull off using your RC2 mod on my RC3 software by adding it manually?  Cuz I think I've got the hang of adding mods manually...finally. :D  Or does anybody have an edited for RC3 version I could try to pull off manually?  ???  Cuz I want some private groups/boards. 

Even without this mod...I can still have private groups/boards...I'd just have to slap a mod on each one right?  I couldn't have the groups moderate their own boards with a leader is all right?  Cuz my forum's a support group site.  To protect peeps privacy most of it's blocked off to guests.  But once peeps register...it's open.  I want to allow kids...they need support too...but I don't want them to see most of the support group boards.  I'd like private groups/boards for them...plus they can see anything guests can see.  I also want private groups/boards for shy men & women.  Plus a moderators group/board.

So to have all this...without your mod...I'd have to make my mods all global mods to allow them access to their own private group/board...right?  Otherwise I'd have to add each mod to that board invidually & could end up with quite a list of names next to that board...right?  Thanks...in advance...for any/all help.  :D

Doug: The permissions allows everyone to see it, regardless of whether they can do anything in the Groups page. This is because I plan to eventually add more features that non-mods can do there.
If you only want your group mods to view the page, you'll have to make a new group for them, and only give them the permission.
QuoteNot your mod, but a related question; I'm a little confused by the n/a on the Moderator membergroup permissions.  Is it true that if I modify the permissions of the Moderator role, even though it's n/a, that it will save settings that apply to all Moderators in all boards throughout the forum (excluding Global Moderators)?
Correct.

There is an 'allow primary' option for each group. If this is enabled, then members added through the groups page will have the new group added as their primary group if they currently have no primary group. If it's disabled, all new members will always have the new group added as a secondary group.
The setting does not influence anything other than the groups page though.

DawnsWebDesigns: try http://dawnswebdesigns.com/sg/index.php?action=packages;version_emulate=1.1-RC2
And yes you can add the mod manually, but it takes a little bit of work ;)

Hey folks,
I've got 1.1RC3 and want to install 1.3d (worked on RC2). But there's no install link? We've got about 20 groups on our forums and not having group mods significantly increases the work of the admins. PMs there and here.

Can anyone please tell what's wrong?
