Hi all
I'd like to be able to post images to my forum, but only me as admin to be allowed to do it...not everyone!
Is this possible, and if so, how can it be done?
Cheers |

possible yes but itd take a lot of editing.
you could try finding the part of the code in (i assume) post.asp that makes the table display the image icon and where it says "if strIMGInPosts = "1" change that line to
if strIMGInPosts = "1" AND (mlev = 4) then
thatd only remove the option to use that - they could still use the img tags - tho you could change it from [img] in inc_func_common. |

Hi
Thanks for that - unfortunately I don't really understand! I understand what I need to do, but I don't understand wht you said afterward about they could still use the image tags??
I just found this in another post:
A bit of a kludge, but should work.
Look for this line in inc_top.asp
mLev = cint(chkUser(strDBNTUserName, Request.Cookies(strUniqueID & "User")("Pword")))
Immediately after that line, add the following
if (mLev = 3 or mLev = 4) then strAllowHTML = 1end if
This would give moderators and Admins HTML On in posts. To restrict to Admins only just remove the mLev = 3 part.
Is it really that simple to change the setting for me ONLY as Admin to be allowed to post to html?? Is it completely secure - in other words will anyone else be able to post html? Also, will they be able to view the HTML if it's still turned off in the forum options. I'm figuring that this will solve my original problem of wanting to post pictures if I can post the HTML link to them?
Cheers!

OK. Went to have a look...but it appears it must have been an older verion...I can't find either of the bits of code in my inc_header.asp! What and where would be the equivalent now? What would I need to add to the latest version of snitz to make it do what I'm trying to get it to do??

well im not entirely sure. u could try (dont try this on an active forum tho) adding the code towards the top of inc_header.asp I would suggest probably somewhere before "call sForumNavigation() " would be the best - and probably beneath "'## START - REMOVAL, MODIFICATION OR CIRCUMVENTING THIS CODE WILL VIOLATE THE SNITZ FORUMS 2000 LICENSE AGREEMENT
Response.Write "<meta name=""copyright"" content=""This Forum code is Copyright (C) 2000-04 Michael Anderson, Pierre Gorissen, Huw Reddick and Richard Kinser, Non-Forum Related code is Copyright (C) " & strCopyright & """>" & vbNewline
'## END - REMOVAL, MODIFICATION OR CIRCUMVENTING THIS CODE WILL VIOLATE THE SNITZ FORUMS 2000 LICENSE AGREEMENT
just make sure you don't interupt any other functions etc where u put it in and im guessing it should work. |

ignore what i said before try this in inc_header.asp:
insert if (mLev = 4) then strAllowHTML = 1 end if after if Application(strCookieURL & "down") then
if not Instr(strScriptName,"admin_") > 0 then
Response.redirect("down.asp")
end if
end if to make it look like this:
if Application(strCookieURL & "down") then
if not Instr(strScriptName,"admin_") > 0 then
Response.redirect("down.asp")
end if
end ifif (mLev = 4) then strAllowHTML = 1 end if |

Hi
Thanks for the suggestion...unfortunately it doen't appear to work...HTML code still shows as off and I tried to type in some HTML anyway, and that didn't work unfortunately...
Back to the drawing board unfortunately! |

ok well you could try my original suggestion. if you do what i already said then replace all instances of " " with a new image code in "inc_func_common.asp" that will stop other people posting images - unless you tell them the new code. |

Hi
Jezmeister, thanks for your help!
In the end, I decided to have one more go at installing the Super Admin HTML MOD and it worked (so far!)! It does exactly what I wanted and a little more! |
