They're not  quite done. The Devil conspired against us and just as we were working on the forums the network goes all insane and the servers drop to a crawl. BlueBall, Oldbloke and Gandy spend several days tearing their hair out and get it fixed. So while Gandy is working away on the network issues he's not working away on the scripts. I think they assumed you'd all prefer to have the servers running nice and fast rather than the forums being all sorted. :)

The scripts have been tested on the Test Forum and they seem to work fine. Tomorrow looks good for Gandy to run them on the live Forum. Fingers crossed this time tomorrow we should all be done.

I'm was tempted to do the forum permissions manually tonight but it's a massive task and I'd still be at it now. The automated system is going to be the best way to do it by far. It also means that the whole system will require no human intervention in the future. You get a new badge and you get access to any new forums straight away.

This means the forum runs itself and I can then retire :norty:

Just to clarify ...

The scripts run on an hourly schedule so you might have to wait an hour for your new permissions to be activated.

Great.

Presumably you can see Badge Holders' Banter and Supporting Member chat :).

I know the button was pressed at about 8.15pm tonight.

Once again thanks to Gandalf and Smilodon. They have literally spent days this week - and I mean days - getting this ready to go. :worshippy::worshippy:

Ok the permissions are live and I refuse to believe that everyone can see the bit's they're supposed to see etc etc. That's not the script, that's me trying to get the forum permissions correct in the first place.

Please let me know in this thread if you think you should have acces to an area  you cannot.

To summarise.

Anyone with a green or red badge should be able to see badge holders banter
Anyone with a black supporters badge should be able to see Supporters chat
Anyone with a red or green CS badge should be able to see CS:S private chat
Anyone with a green or red WOW badge should be able to see Members Only in the DMR raiding section
Anyone with a red WOW badge should be able to see Council in the DMR Raiding sectionAnyone with a red game badge (CS, CoD4, L4D abd dMr game admin) should be able to see into their own game admin forum and public admin forum in the dMw Admin Section of the forum
Anyone who is CS public admin should be able to see into the CS public admin forum in the dMw admin section. (only CS have public admins and so only the use the public admin forum)

If you think you're not getting what you should from the above please shout.

Why do I need a moderator to check my posts in the CoD4 admin section?

I write down everything I want to remember. That way, instead of spending a lot of time trying to remember what it is I wrote down, I spend the time looking for the paper I wrote it down on.

Have you read some of your posts?

Seriously that's what this thread is for. Each user has about fifty individual setting and each forum has about thirty different user group permissions. I just ticked the wrong box for CoD4 Game Admins. Now I've ticked the right box.

Thanks

Next mistake please..... :)

By the orders of the mighty leaders of our community and as mentioned before I believe by Penfold in another post about the changes.

Supporting members get the ability to store 250 posts, non supporting members get 5.
Supporting members can also
upload attachments to the forum
have a signature file beneath their posts including a graphic
have an avatar next to their name
open and upload to a personal forum photo gallery


Even I subscribed last night and the mighty forum computer has burst into life, assigned me the black and gold £ badge for supporters and added me to the supporters user group so I too get the goodies.
