UBB.threads PHP Forum Software Community Forums UBB.classic [Archived] UBB.classic Bugs 6.3.0: Moderator title even if users are no moderators in forum [FIXED - 6.3.0.1]

Hi!

I just noticed, that moderators are displayed as moderators in forums they don't moderate!

This has been changed a few version ago and now this bug seems to be back.

Greetings

This is probably not a bug, but a subtle change. I know that I prefer my moderators show the title no matter where they post.

If people show up as moderators in forums they dont moderate its wrong and will cause misunderstandings. It has not been this way in 6.2

Maybe they forgot to implement that logic when they added the new custom titles.

This issue is going to need to be looked at in detail. Please open a support ticket for further assistance. Thanks.

Got the same problem <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

OK, just opened a support ticket.

Would you be so kind to post the solution here (if there is any)?
Thank you.

Around line 1200 of ubb_lib_posting.cgi... it currently reads:

<pre>unless($Moderator && ($Moderator =~ /$this_user_number/)) {
$user_status = &CustomTitle($user_profile[8], $user_profile[7]);
} # end if</pre>

Change it to read:

<pre>unless($Moderator && ($Moderator =~ /$this_user_number/)) {
$user_status = &CustomTitle("Member", $user_profile[7]);
} # end if</pre>

This has been fixed in the next release.
