How can I make (for a certain forum) that the user starting the thread get the permission to edit/delete replies, but ONLY to his own thread?
something like "If forumID = XX and memberID = TMember_ID" I suppose?

Your english is fine, fully understandable in all levels. But you can never stop someone from misreading which is what I've been doing alot of lately.
Well MarcelG had it dead on. You will need to modify those files he listed above to add new functions to allow new agruments for topic starters = topic mods for each file that pertains to posting. Alot of work and code duplicating.
As much as this is a good idea, it will require alot of modding and doesn't fit the idea that I misread.< |

Hm... I don't think this is what I was asking for..:
If a user (any user, not only moderators) start a topic the user will get moderator status on that thread only, IF he starts the topic in that specific forum where this setting is on.< |

I've been looking at the code and it is becoming more understandable as I view it. There are alot of things I can reuse to make this easier.
The pages to edit would be as follows:
post.asp -
Going to add the functionality of who can post similar to the poll mod. Normal would be default, allows everyone to post as normal. Depending on whether the admin allows guests or not. Mods | Admins and then just Admins. Just write a lil function to grab the current forum_ID then grab that value isn't hard.
forum.asp -
Alot of variables which are easy to use. AdminAllowed would be the most useful as it already grabs who is and who isn't an admin from cookies, sessions and Mlev.
post_info.asp and pop_delete.asp -
I disagree with Marcel's response for the time being. I do not see a reason to heavily modify these files. Probably add a response of who can edit these files and why but that is about it. These forums, in theory, should act like other forums. If a moderator creates a post then only moderators, original poster and admin can edit the post. And so on.
However, I will find out in detail later on during testing if something does need to be added. Also I got some research and questions to get answered before starting.< |

I always wanted this feature as well. I created a hidden forum that only members of a certain usergroup can see. Problem is I created a News Mod that pulls the information directly from that forum and displays it on a separate page. I wanted the functionality that only moderators / Admins can start topics while everyone else can only reply. On the other page, it shows the main topic's subject and message. All replies are counted as comments.
If no one attempts then I will try it, but it won't for a while though.
I thought I would create a new column on Forum_Forum Table and specify the number (mLev) that had access to post new threads. 3 = Mod, 4 = Admin, everything else = Normal. I don't know how long it will take since it is just an idea.< |

Tnis can be very interesting for my blog thingy to have the author remove comments (replies)
from other members, which might be spam or unfriendly.
I'm going to check this tomorrow, to see if I can make something out of it.

Ah, you may have a point there =)
Not exactly what I was asking for but the code should be similar...

Let me re-phrase that... something that allowed someone posting to create their own sub-forum for which they are then automatically the moderator.
Less work for the webmasters, no?
Marcel's is a paying option. I would guess he sets it up manually for any users.

This would be a very cool function if used in association with the sub-forums mod - something that allowed someone posting to create their own sub-forum for which they are the moderator.  < |

Ok, at least I understand what you are writing now =) But I don't have the coding skill to do something like that. I'll leave this thread here and if anyone feel an uncontrolled urge to write this function you are welcome ;)

ROFL .. np.
Most of the code checks for mlev (3-moderator, 4-admin, etc..) to see if "they" can edit the post. If you want the topic author to have moderator control I think the easiest way to do it would be to write a function to replace the mlev check. Maybe you would pass the topic_id to the function and it would return the author_id. Check that against the current member_id and if true then the post can be editted.
Does that help or not ? < |
