Also @Daniel Hood, could you make that username is showed? So it will be Last edited by (moderator name or even just common users username if he is in group who can edit his own posts)?

Hello,

Can admins be excluded from the moderation actions login?

 

[Daniel Hood]

There's not currently a way to do this but I could possibly include it in a future release. It's arguable that it's good to log those actions though because being able to trace moderation actions, regardless of admin or not, can be useful to see how threads/users/posts changed state, etc...

 

[zastavra]

You're right, but sometimes admins have to perform maintenance actions that have no reason to be reported to the rest of the staff members.

Interesting. Did you have a moderator log item discussion thread go into 2 pages worth of posts?

 

[Daniel Hood]

A couple of nice features are coming to Moderator Essentials 1.6.0.

Here's a screenshot of the ability to add tags to threads from the inline mod tools.



Also, I've created a moderator control panel that adds a few more tools, such as ip searching and a banned user list, plus another way to access the front end user banning. All these things require user permissions which are prefixed with "ModEss - ".



And also brought the tag management tools to the front end (permissions tied).

1.6.0

What's New?

• Moderator Control Panel. Moderator Control Panel that features some tools from the admin panel;
  • Ability to view banned members (requires permission "ModEss - Ban Users")
  • Ability to ban members (requires permission "ModEss - Ban Users")
  • Ability to unban members (requires permission "ModEss - Ban Users")
  • Ability to search users by ip address (just like the admin panel, no additional permission required).
  • Manage Tags functionality from...

@Daniel Hood is the tags function tied to XF1.5, and if so, do you need to be running 1.5 for ME1.6.0 to work?

Yes it's tied to the tag functionality in XF1.5 but no it is not dependent on XF1.5. Just don't give anyone the permission to manage tags so that page cannot be accessed. If they were to have permission and accessed the page, you'd get some error messages based on files that don't exist, etc..

Can't you wrap the relevant code in a version check, to stop errors being thrown?

if (XenForo_Application::$versionId >= 1050032)
{
    ...
}

I'm using that for the next version of mine as I'm using XenForo_Model_Thread::FETCH_LAST_POST_AVATAR which was only introduced in B2.
For the alpha the version check would be 1050010, of course.

That's not a bad idea at all. 1.5 is such a good release that my subconscious just wanted to encourage people to update

Huh.

Suddenly I need this in my life site.

Daniel Hood updated Moderator Essentials with a new update entry:

1.6.1

What's New

• Fixed bug with front-end banning of members.
• Made XenForo 1.4.x integration cleaner by allowing you to set the permission ModEss - Manage Tags before upgrading to XenForo 1.5.x without worrying about any error messages. This allows you to set all moderator essential permissions ahead of update so your staff can dive right in to Tag Management.

Ah, no.. forgot about that one. I've added it to XenMods. I'll release 1.6.2 this week with that fixed.
