How do I give moderator rights to a user for every forum without doing one entry per forum in the modsarray ?

Can I do something like that ?
array(1,20)=>array(5) ?

You can paste in bb_specials.php something like that (instead of default array):

if($forum!=0){
$mods[$forum]=array(USER_ID1, USER_ID2...);
}

This will set specified USER_IDs for all available forums.

Hi, Paul!

Is it possible somewhere around the abobe, before or after, to add some more admins with the default syntax?

Yes, it's possible (not admins, but moderators).

/* Define moderators here as specified by default */

$mods=array(
1=>array(2,3,4),
2=>array(10)
);

/* Define moderators here in whole for all possible forums */

$modsAll=array(USER_ID1, USER_ID2...);

/* Here goes the algorithm for concatenating both arrays */

if($forum!=0 or $action=='userinfo'){
foreach($modsAll as $mod_id) {
if(!isset($mods[$forum])) $mods[$forum]=array();
if(!in_array($mod_id, $mods[$forum])) $mods[$forum][]=$mod_id;
}
}

Haven't tested it but should work...

Thanks, Paul :) Of course - mods, not admins, my fault.

It's good to know the above code because some days ago I made a new forum and a couple of hours I wondered why am I not a mod of the new one - I forgot that I must add it in bb_specials.php :)

I would even say that it's very useful.

Greetings!
