admin flag is working...

This ended up being a bug which I've corrected in your installation. It's a simple fix for anyone else that might happen to read this post.

File in question: scripts/showflat.inc.php
Line # in version 7.5.5: 950

Current Code:

PHP Code

$userstatus = $html->user_status($usernum,$gimages);
 

New Code:
PHP Code

$userstatus = $html->user_status($usernum,$gimages,$modcheck);

Humm...
So the majority will not know the 7.5.5 release was changed from the initial release unless they read this post?
Maybe need to add to the change log?

The way I understand it, and Rick will correct me if I'm wrong is this. The whole process is supposed to pretty much remain the same. As always, when there are enough fixed bugs to warrant a new release, then we'd put out a new release as usual.

If a bug can be easily fixed, then it will be added to the current release and the fix posted here as well as we did. That way, people downloading after that, won't be impacted, and anyone reading this forum can do a quick fix.

We'll be working on a better way to handle notifications of this. Maybe an official bugfix forum, since everyone's license is now tied to their forum id, so we could have a forum specifically for this only for licensed users.

No you are correct on this as far as the past tense process.
Just though it would be nice to note in the 7.5.5 changelog that the zip was updated why and when. And the version did not change.
Just would be a nice kinda thing to have.
Then we can view the changelog to see if anything changed on the zip file instead of scrolling through the bug forum and not knowing if a fix will be in a future release or is in the zip file already with the current version.

I made this change and am still having the problem in my LisaShea forums. I have a moderator "Jilly" who I even gave admin privs to and she still is not having any icon show up by her name. I even tried removing all her privs and adding them back again. Any ideas?

i posted in another thread that the user_status routine is buggy.. something to do with 2 versus 3 and wanting/not wanting the M flag to show for the forum a particular moderator moderates..

html.inc.php

might be still buggy ? wink

Also if you check their "My Stuff" preferences make sure they have the check in "show M flag". I know one of my Admins, and several of my moderators didn't have that checked and no matter how many permissions I gave them... they had the permissions but the flag wouldn't show up until that was checked.

(Maybe not your issue, but it was one similar that I went through right after the change over).

Ah ok somehow she did not have that checked. I can't imagine she unchecked it - maybe it defaults to unchecked? I'm set now, thanks!

Yea,Rick put something in there if a user was in multiple groups with icons. So they can select one and only one. No way to determine which correct one to use with out user intervention was the reason.
So if say a user is a admin and a moderator with the default settings they would need to goto mystuff and select one or the other for a icon.

So I believe even if they are only in one group with a default icon for the group, they still need to select it in their profile.

I didn't realize there was as a separate thread for the same issue.

I ran that SQL query and it seems to be working.
