[Edited] Sorry Niels.
Just a question; I created a group called "News Letter"; can I make all moderators of my boards to be moderator of that News Letter group, so that every moderators can access to mas_email.php?

Thanks a lot in advance.

fist, you should note, that a groupname with space are not allowed for the custom mass email mod, so rename it to e.g. newsletter or news_letter

this is to inshure that you can make a template file with the same name as the group

About your question, I do not think that would be posible without a mod, that allows several users to be a moderator of the same usergroup, maybe sutch mod already exist, try look at www.phpBB.com or request one there

maybe some other users here, know about sutch mod ?
"Multiple moderators for a usergroup"

if you wish to enable ANY moderator on your forum, to mass_email ANY usergroup, then you can easy modify the mass__email.php file, to allow this

simply
[FIND]
$userdata['user_level'] != ADMIN

[REPLACE WITCH]
$userdata['user_level'] < ADMIN

this should make it posible for ANY MODERATOR to email ANY group

I think it works fine

[Niels]

you have requested this feature for the new up-coming version of the mod
this will enabe ANY moderator (forum moderators) to send mass email to groups witch are marked as MOD, standart is only group moderators enabled

instead

Code: Select all

[FIND] (2 places)
(g.group_allow_email='".AUTH_MOD."' AND g.group_moderator = '" . $userdata['user_id']."') OR

[REPLACE WITH]
(g.group_allow_email='".AUTH_MOD."' AND '".$userdata['user_level']."'='".MOD."') OR

I haven't tested this, but it should do the trick

Sorry to bother Niles; I upgraded mass_email.php to latest version for that security bug and I made into the file the modifications you told me to allow all moderators to mass email any groups, but if I set all groups to private Moderators can only mass email the group Moderators.

Any help?

Thanks a lot in advance

[Niels]

have you replaced the code all 2 places, it should still work

[jobbesat]

I replaced in both places, I set permissions to PRIVATE in every groups, but Moderators can mass_email only Moderators

Thanks a lot in advance.
