Usergroup block

Posted: Fri Jul 09, 2004 10:13 am

Maybe this is another stupid question ... and/or I'm trying to reinvent the wheel.

I have the laziest moderators on the planet, so they need a nuke block that reads a summary from forum posts in their private bb usergroup forums.

Currently, Nuke 6.9, moderators can only see last post summary when viewing the Forum Index Page.

I'm using NSN Groups therefore the future block can be allowed for any group I create, ie: moderators.

I've search for someone else's code ... and I've attempted to modify some other existing forums block code, but it's beyond my current knowledge. Maybe I need an explanation of $HideViewReadOnly = 1; And is there a variable (example $ModView = 1) available and could I apply the same logic as below?

Code:

$HideViewReadOnly = 1;


<snip>





$Count_Topics = 0;


$Topic_Buffer = "";


$result = sql_query( "SELECT t.topic_id, f.forum_name, f.forum_id, t.topic_last_post_id, t.topic_title, t.topic_poster, t.topic_views, t.topic_replies, t.topic_moved_id FROM ".$prefix."_bbtopics t, ".$prefix."_bbforums f where t.forum_id=f.forum_id ORDER BY topic_last_post_id DESC", $db );


while( list( $topic_id, $forum_name, $forum_id, $topic_last_post_id, $topic_title, $topic_poster, $topic_views, $topic_replies, $topic_moved_id ) = sql_fetch_row( $result, $db) )





{


   $skip_display = 0;


   if( $HideViewReadOnly == 1 )


   {


      $result1 = sql_query( "SELECT auth_view, auth_read FROM ".$prefix."_bbforums where forum_id = '$forum_id'", $db );


      list( $auth_view, $auth_read ) = sql_fetch_row( $result1, $db );


      if( ( $auth_view != 0 ) or ( $auth_read != 0 ) ) { $skip_display = 1; }


   }
