How to add users moderator and get them in moderator group

Posted: Wed Apr 17, 2013 11:34 pm

*bump* Does anyone know how to do this? The user's name supposes to show green name too.

are you referring to "groups moderator"? It's been awhile since I messed with that, but I think you have to be logged in as the moderator group "moderator" and then click on usergroups within the forums. then add other mods. There is a way to add them in the forums acp as well (user admin - permissions)

Yes, I am referring to "groups moderator". I put my other user as "test" in usergroups. Then I logged into test and go in forums. My user doesn't show green name. It doesn't look like it has no powers.

And also I tried to add test via User Admin -> permissions. I put all forums as "Is moderatored"

I received the error message like this

Code:

Could not obtain moderator status





DEBUG MODE





SQL Error : 1064 You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ') AND aa.group_id = ug.group_id AND aa.auth_mod = 1 GROUP BY ug.us' at line 3





SELECT ug.user_id, COUNT(auth_mod) AS is_auth_mod FROM nuke_bbauth_access aa, nuke_bbuser_group ug WHERE ug.user_id IN () AND aa.group_id = ug.group_id AND aa.auth_mod = 1 GROUP BY ug.user_id





Line : 561


File : admin_ug_auth.php

And I tested on user level and changed from user to administrator. It doesn't work too. administrator level is not really moderator. right?

There is a "fix group" script in the distro:
UtilityFiles/DBFixes/

Sounds like you may need to run it, but there are some other posts about it if you search the forums; which I might look at first.

Do I just upload fix group.php and open that file via webpage?

Load it in the module folder of 'Forums' and then execute it from this folder.

Which folder do I have to place it in? There is more than one folder "Forums".

Posted: Thu Apr 18, 2013 2:28 pm

module folder of 'Forums' = /modules/Forums/

Posted: Thu Apr 18, 2013 6:11 pm

I placed it in there. I have to execute this file by typing http://www.link.com/modules/Forums/fixgroup.php. right?

If yes, I received the message like this

Code:

You can't access this file directly...

*bump* I believe that it's fixed. You are right about placing fixgroup.php in /modules/Forums/fixgroup.php

But you forgot to say that I should type the hyperlink like this after I place the file in /modules/Forums/

Code:

 http://www.yoursite.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=fixgroup

That should be executed after you type or copy that in url.

Note: You must log in your main accounts as site admin and GOD before you try to execute fixgroup.php.

I noticed that user admin - permissions doesn't make the username into green username when I add the username as the moderator on the forums. It only works great with group Admin -> Permissions.
