Slight Issues with 4.2.2

[Steris56]

Maybe some of you can shed some light i upgraded to vb 4.2.2 upgraded all my mods ect the issue that i am having now is my staff permissions i have forums out of public eye but when i go in as a s/mod for example i can not see the forum i have looked at all the masks and permissions and it all seems ok i might be missing something obvious

Off the top of I my head, I don't know, I have not come across this issue.

Have you disabled all your mods and see if the issue still persists?

Open your includes/config.php file and below <?php add the following.

define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true);

So it looks like this:

<?php
define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true);
/*=================================================  =====================*\
|| ##################################################  ################## ||
|| # vBulletin 4.2.2

Use a editor like notepad++ to edit any files, don't use Notepad or Wordpad.

If that fixes the issue enable plugins again by adding // before the line you added, then navigate to ACP --> Plugins & Products --> Manage Products and disable one mod at a time until you find the one causing the issue.

how do i disable forums like that and still check with forums off the admin are fine is the rest of staff that isnt

 

[Ozzy47]

What do you mean disable forums, you mean the forums them selves where people post in?

what i mean is i have forum closed at the moment and i am using your mod to check user permissions if i disable globally then i wont be able to use your mod and any user other then admin will get forum is closed message

OK, try adding this to the config file then.

$my_unique_ip="XX.XX.XXX.XXX"; // Change this IP to your Unique IP.
if ($_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"]==$my_unique_ip) define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true);

Just add your IP in the first line, then hooks will only be disabled for your IP address.

I think you need to take the call for that out by editing the ozzmodz advanced footer template, "ozzmodz_advanced_footer_footer"

Ummm, perhaps you are using my [OzzModz] Moderator Control Panel Link In Footer mod?

Thank you Max that was it

no just the advanced footer mod

max got it right i removed the modcp link code and its all good now

quick question in the advanced footer mod not sure how hard it would be but could you allow an option in acp to get rid of the link instead of taking the code out

thanks for all your help my friends

Ahh, yeah in the next version I am going to remove it, not entirely sure why I added it anyway.
