A suggestion & a Question

[Big Hairy Jimbo]

For the next version, I would like;

1) When you click on the Modify Forums & Moderators screen, the system displays all the forums available in a tree structure, However when you go to edit a users Access Masks, the forums are listed in the order they were created, which gives you no clue as to what the parent forums are. Could this please be changed, so edit masks, are displayed as a tree, and not in the current order. (Thanks, this would really help heaps!!!!)

2) You might be able to do this already I dont know. Anyway, sometime ago, someone on this site, who's name escapes me, very kindly helped me out. I wanted to display a unique number on each post, so I inserted the code PostID=$post[postid] into my POSTBIT template. Ahhh just remembered, it was FireFly who helped me. Anyway, the result of this was that every post now had the word POSTID= and a number attached to it. This was great, however now, I would like to be to search for this. ie type in the POSTID and bingo it takes me to that thread. Anyone know of way of doing this?

I dont usually edit users's access masks on their level becuase there's bound to be more than one person who needs the exact same type of access. I just put them into a group if they need speciall acces and modify the permission in the Forums & Moderators > Permissions for that group they are in. Its easier and saves a lot of headaches.

Freddie, you're a GUN!!!! Thanks a lot, that did the trick.

While I'm in a good mood, I'll add, that the VBULLETIN forum software is simply brilliant. Good to see a developer producing a high quality product at an affordable price. I think you've hit on something here, ie sell it cheap, but sell lots of them. I don't know why anyone would pirate this software, as the service I have received from vbulletin is outstanding, & using the 12 months maintenance is brilliant. Not only that, but you keep updating the product as well. So I reckon, if you pirate VBULLETIN then you're probably likely to rip off your own grandmother as well. Keep up the good high quality work. ;)
