Topic: How do I make moderators to

be able to assign groups. Ie when someone registers they put them in the right group.

But I dont want them to be able to make another person moderator or admin. Thats a task I want the admin to have.

Re: How do I make moderators to

profile.php

Replace

else if (isset($_POST['update_group_membership']))
{
    if ($pun_user['g_id'] > PUN_ADMIN)
        message($lang_common['No permission']);

With

else if (isset($_POST['update_group_membership']))
{
    if ($pun_user['g_id'] > PUN_MOD)
        message($lang_common['No permission']);

It wouldn't exactly be elegant, but by using Elzar's suggestion in conjunction with CodeXP's Group Change Security mod, a moderator could try to make someone an admin/moderator, but they'd need the key that gets emailed to the administrator to do so.

Re: How do I make moderators to

Do what Elzar did, then

Replace: (line 1565).

                $result = $db->query('SELECT g_id, g_title FROM '.$db->prefix.'groups WHERE g_id!='.PUN_GUEST.' ORDER BY g_title') or error('Unable to fetch user group list', __FILE__, __LINE__, $db->error());

with:

if ($pun_user['g_id'] == PUN_MOD)
$modquery = "AND g_id!='.PUN_ADMIN.' AND g_id!='.PUN_MOD.' ";

$result = $db->query('SELECT g_id, g_title FROM '.$db->prefix.'groups WHERE g_id!='.PUN_GUEST.' '.$modquery.'ORDER BY g_title') or error('Unable to fetch user group list', __FILE__, __LINE__, $db->error());
