Visual Warning Mod

[xenovanis]

Yet another update of the Visual Warning mod, originally created by Grudge and updated by Permutations (1.1 beta 3), Xenovanis (1.1 RC1), Aaron (1.1 RC2, 1.1 RC3, 1.1) and Eleglin (1.1.1).

Description
This mod allows you to give visual warnings to your users in four stages:
  1) First warning - instant message and a green warning mark next to user name.
  2) Post moderation - the user's posts must be approved before they are seen.
  3) Mute - instant message and the inability to post polls or messages.
  4) Ban - user is gone.

Latest version
Version 1.31 will work with 1.0.x, 1.1 bèta 3 public, 1.1 RC1, 1.1 RC2, 1.1 RC3, 1.1 final and 1.1.1.

Changelog
- Updated to work with SMF 1.1.1
- Added a whole proper visual warning section in the "Features and Options" area (only for SMF 1.1 RC2, 1.1 RC3, SMF 1.1 and SMF 1.1.1)
- Added French translation (by Eleglin and Val). Please refer to the file 'modification.xml'

Please uninstall any previous versions of this mod before installing this one. Also remember, before you apply any mod:
Backup your database!!!

so much i wanted this mod but i have some errors look:

1. clicking in admin panel -> Warning Management i have the followinr error:

Code Select Expand

Unable to load the 'list_warnings' template.

2. clicking in admin panel -> Post Moderation Manager i have thie error:

Code Select Expand

Unable to load the 'pmod_manager' template.

That is due to a bug in the packagemanager. You need to upload the file VisualWarning.template.php to your /Themes/default directory and the file VisualWarning11.php to your /Sources directory.

Excellent timing Xeno.

It was only last night that I started looking in to this one for a 1.0.5 board.

You must be psychic. Thanks for the update.

Have there been any changes to the database structure? The reason I ask, the 1.0.5 board already has previous version records and table structure from a previous install. I would be looking to install and upload the mod manually and just would like your opinion as to whether to uninstall the tables and records from MySQL first.

Cheers

Its kind of wierd.

I checked & the files were put in place?

I think the bug is just a common ftp problem (overusing)

There is a confirmed bug in the packagemanager. It does upload the files but once uploaded they are empty (0kb).

Thanks Fizzy.  Actually, I just updated the 1.1 Beta 3 Public version (made by permutations) to 1.1 RC1 and there weren't any changes in the database there.
If I understand correctly you want to re-install the mod on a 1.0.5 board where it was installed before? I think that is safe to do, the installer skips existing tables and columns.

[J. Williams]

They didn't appear empty

[xenovanis]

Yes, you have a point there. I use different servers and on one the packagemanager works, and on another it doesn't. But in this case it didn't work and that is a bug. Now, back on topic?

[J. Williams]

Ok i've had no errors at all with this.

The button looks a bit smudged(unclear)

Thanks Xeno for putting my mind at rest.

Well, I'm not a designer, so I created one with the buttongenerator. Feel free to design another button though. 

Thanks Xeno for putting my mind at rest.

You're welcome. Still backup though, always backup

"Back-up" is my middle name

[allever]

Any live demos?  or screenshots?  Would really appreciate it!

I'm debating whether to write my own, or not.. this mod does not seem to do it for me for what I am looking for..

Thanks

i had this very BAD error, and i am trying to uninstall but the package has WAY too many files, i don';t know where to look.

this is error:

Code Select Expand

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare autowarn() (previously declared in /homepages/20/d107436098/htdocs/bb/bb/Sources/Security.php:227) in /homepages/20/d107436098/htdocs/bb/bb/Sources/Security.php on line 281

that's bad, ins't it?

[xenovanis]

Nitro, did you uninstall any previous versions of this mod? It looks like it's installed twice.

[rjordan]

Ok I know this is probably someplace else but I cant really find it.  I  have added this and it works great under the default theme, but under helios and any others I have it does not show up.  So how can I fix this, keep in mind im not very programming smart....

[xenovanis]

You need to adapt custom themefiles to work with this mod.

How to make mods work with themes?

If you are using SMF 1.0.5, you need to make the changes descriped in the file VisualWarning_SMF10.mod.
If you are using SMF 1.1 Beta 3 Public, you need to make the changes descriped in the file VisualWarning_SMF11.mod.
If you are using SMF 1.1 RC1, you need to make the changes descriped in the file VisualWarning_SMF11R1.mod.

Um, what does it do?
