UBB.threads PHP Forum Software Community Forums UBB.threads 7 Version 7 Support Moderator 'M' flag has disappeared

Hi to All, my name is Darryl and I am a global moderator of the Outdoorking forum that is using UBB 7.5.5. Since installing the upgrade, I have noticed that the small 'm' flag beside each moderators' display name has disappeared, even when we've checked the 'm' box in our user profiles and expired the cookies and logged in again.
Can you please help?
Best wishes,

I had the same problem. I think I removed everyone's moderator privileges and gave them back. Then it worked. And since that process was annoyingly cumbersome, I think I did most of it by db hacking.

Moderators are group 3

so..


would enable the image for all group 3 members..

now if you are and admin AND a moderator (some boards do that), then it would change the admins too.. but this can then be 'fixed' by just running the same query after it for group 1 (change the 3's to 1's)

SD, Forcing the selection from a query is not what I think the problem is as stated.
Darryl already stated he went into his profile and selected the icon.
Unless the tables are not updating from the ubb script.

exactly

it just removes 1 variable, since i don't have axx to his server..

OTAY!

Sirdude,

Bruce from outdoorking here (re Darryls problem)and I just ran the script and no changes to the moderator flag issue.

The problem appears to come from the 7.5.5 update after installation.

I'm unable to work out why this has happened. If you want access to the server I can arrange that just send me a PM.

sure.. i'll PM you

html.inc.php was changed for some reason...

the logic in the new $html->user_status routine keys on $v==3 now.. bla bla..

it's a bug that needs fixing.. cuz putting it back to $v==2 (temporary quicky) 'fixes' your site..

i have my moderator image turned on here and it isn't displayed in the GROUP_IMAGES slot in showflat either..

i can re-look @ the actual routine to discern the $modcheck versus $gimages versus whatever is going on, but it is a bug in stock from my 1st blush..

basically:


that logic decides to NOT grab a particular image for group 3 (moderators) it gets it right for admins and non mods

my guess is that it was to not have dup moderator/global mod images displayed, but that's a guess for now..

i'm stressed for time, so can't elaborate further..

Will need to look at this. Basically, what that line is for is that it's supposed to display the moderator image in forums that the moderator actually moderates. If they aren't in the list of moderators for that forum, then it's not supposed to display.

Sirdude,

Thanks again for fixing the problem with our board. I really appreciate your help and the speed that you fix problems for me is fantastic.
