Hello everyone,
Last week we made the big leap from vB 3.8.6 to vB 4.1.3, and although the transition went pretty smoothly, some very useful features seem to be missing in action.
For instance, in vB 3.x, when a moderator would search for all the threads started by a user, in the result list he could only manipulate the threads created in areas where he had moderation permissions
Since the upgrade, however, all the threads can be selected, even though the moderation permissions haven't changed
So for instance, if mod A wants to close all the threads opened by user B in his section (GSM in this case), he has to manually (and carefully) sift through the results to pick the relevant threads, instead of just using Select All -> Close Threads, like he did until now.
Otherwise, if he selects by accident a thread that's in a different area (Hardware, for example), and tries to close everything down, the forum will naturally spit out an error that he doesn't have required permissions.
Is there any way to disable the checkboxes if the moderator doesn't have permissions in that forum section, like they were in vBulletin 3.x?
