Hello,

I was wonderinf if there was a way to get this mod:
http://www.phpbbhacks.com/viewhack.php?id=1289
to work with your Custom Mass PM mod...

It would be awesome if it could be set so a group owner and the moderators could Mass PM their usergroup

Thanks,
Twinsen

I'll second this request.

The ability for a group moderator to be able to mass PM all in his group would be very usefull.
I.E. to inform the group about a specific forthcoming event etc.

How can users other than the admin be added to the list of who can use this mod?

[-=ET=-]

Allow the group moderator to mass PM his group is a standard feature of this MOD.
Go to your ACP > Group Admin > Management > Choose a group and select who can mass PM this group

But this MOD does not add any group owner, or many group moderators as Ptirhiik's MOD does.

I have Group ModeratorZ installed... and all my groups have, ofcourse, a group owner.. and most of them have (a couple) of group moderators.

Now... for your group owner AND moderator to PB everyone in that group, do the following:
In admin panel, set the group mass pm on "Moderator", so now the group owner AND admin can PM.
You probably got this far...

now, for the adjustments...
In privmsg.php:
Find:

Code: Select all

   $sql_g = "SELECT DISTINCT g.group_id
   FROM ".GROUPS_TABLE . " g, ".USER_GROUP_TABLE . " ug
   WHERE g.group_single_user <> 1
      AND (
         (g.group_allow_pm='".AUTH_MOD."' AND g.group_moderator = '" . $userdata['user_id']."') OR
         (g.group_allow_pm='".AUTH_ACL."' AND ug.user_id = " . $userdata['user_id'] . " AND ug.group_id = g.group_id ) OR
         (g.group_allow_pm='".AUTH_REG."')
      )" ;

Now, change this into:

Code: Select all

   $sql_g = "SELECT DISTINCT g.group_id
   FROM ".GROUPS_TABLE . " g, ".USER_GROUP_TABLE . " ug
   WHERE g.group_single_user <> 1
      AND (
         (g.group_allow_pm='".AUTH_MOD."' AND g.group_moderator = '" . $userdata['user_id']."') OR
         (g.group_allow_pm='".AUTH_MOD."' AND ug.group_id = g.group_id AND ug.group_moderator = 1 AND ug.user_id = " . $userdata['user_id'] . ") OR
         (g.group_allow_pm='".AUTH_ACL."' AND ug.user_id = " . $userdata['user_id'] . " AND ug.group_id = g.group_id ) OR
         (g.group_allow_pm='".AUTH_REG."')
      )" ;


So, the line

Code: Select all

         (g.group_allow_pm='".AUTH_MOD."' AND ug.group_id = g.group_id AND ug.group_moderator = 1 AND ug.user_id = " . $userdata['user_id'] . ") OR

is added. This will have everyone who is group_moderator in a certain group which has group mass pm on moderator, gets the image button to groupmsg.php

Now, in groupmsg.php, you'll have to make this change twice.
First, find:

Code: Select all

$sql = "SELECT DISTINCT g.group_name
   FROM ".GROUPS_TABLE . " g, ".USER_GROUP_TABLE . " ug
   WHERE g.group_single_user <> 1 AND g.group_id='".$group_id."'
   AND (
            ('".$userdata['user_level']."'='".ADMIN."') OR
            (g.group_allow_pm='".AUTH_MOD."' AND g.group_moderator = '" . $userdata['user_id']."') OR
            (g.group_allow_pm='".AUTH_ACL."' AND ug.user_id = " . $userdata['user_id'] . " AND ug.group_id = g.group_id ) OR
            (g.group_allow_pm='".AUTH_REG."' AND '".$userdata['user_id']."'!='".ANONYMOUS."' ) OR
            (g.group_allow_pm='".AUTH_ALL."')
      )" ;

and change it into:

Code: Select all

$sql = "SELECT DISTINCT g.group_name
   FROM ".GROUPS_TABLE . " g, ".USER_GROUP_TABLE . " ug
   WHERE g.group_single_user <> 1 AND g.group_id='".$group_id."'
   AND (
            ('".$userdata['user_level']."'='".ADMIN."') OR
            (g.group_allow_pm='".AUTH_MOD."' AND g.group_moderator = '" . $userdata['user_id']."') OR
            (g.group_allow_pm='".AUTH_MOD."' AND ug.group_id = g.group_id AND ug.group_moderator = 1 AND ug.user_id = " . $userdata['user_id'] . ") OR
            (g.group_allow_pm='".AUTH_ACL."' AND ug.user_id = " . $userdata['user_id'] . " AND ug.group_id = g.group_id ) OR
            (g.group_allow_pm='".AUTH_REG."' AND '".$userdata['user_id']."'!='".ANONYMOUS."' ) OR
            (g.group_allow_pm='".AUTH_ALL."')
      )" ;

and change

Code: Select all

   $sql = "SELECT DISTINCT g.group_id, g.group_name
   FROM ".GROUPS_TABLE . " g, ".USER_GROUP_TABLE . " ug
   WHERE g.group_single_user <> 1
      AND (
            ('".$userdata['user_level']."'='".ADMIN."') OR
            (g.group_allow_pm='".AUTH_MOD."' AND g.group_moderator = '" . $userdata['user_id']."') OR
            (g.group_allow_pm='".AUTH_ACL."' AND ug.user_id = " . $userdata['user_id'] . " AND ug.group_id = g.group_id ) OR
            (g.group_allow_pm='".AUTH_REG."' AND '".$userdata['user_id']."'!='".ANONYMOUS."' ) OR
            (g.group_allow_pm='".AUTH_ALL."')
      )" ;

into

Code: Select all

   $sql = "SELECT DISTINCT g.group_id, g.group_name
   FROM ".GROUPS_TABLE . " g, ".USER_GROUP_TABLE . " ug
   WHERE g.group_single_user <> 1
      AND (
            ('".$userdata['user_level']."'='".ADMIN."') OR
            (g.group_allow_pm='".AUTH_MOD."' AND g.group_moderator = '" . $userdata['user_id']."') OR
            (g.group_allow_pm='".AUTH_MOD."' AND ug.group_id = g.group_id AND ug.group_moderator = 1 AND ug.user_id = " . $userdata['user_id'] . ") OR
            (g.group_allow_pm='".AUTH_ACL."' AND ug.user_id = " . $userdata['user_id'] . " AND ug.group_id = g.group_id ) OR
            (g.group_allow_pm='".AUTH_REG."' AND '".$userdata['user_id']."'!='".ANONYMOUS."' ) OR
            (g.group_allow_pm='".AUTH_ALL."')
      )" ;

Niels, I'm not sure if this is proper coding... (I know for sure it's not easymod compatible. ) and all.. or if the SQL statements work... but it works on my forum. Might be handy for other people who use this mod.
