This modification is a fantastic means for staff members to efficiently communicate within a thread without normal members being able to see what is said. It has been tested extensively by quite a few different forums.

This box appears in showthread.php for staff members. Only staff can see it.

Wow, you never fail to provide the community with access to awesome, usable mods!

Good work Mr. DC.

Excellent, may be a good idea to have the date and time shown so people know when it was posted.

EDIT: It has that option, brilliant

Does it work with 3.6 as well? this looks alot better then the current method we use

No, I posted it in the 3.6.x area just to be tricky.



I tease, I tease. Yes, it works fine :)

lol !

wow great mod thanks

Have used this for a while, it's a great hack that helps keep you and your staff on the same page. Very very helpful for a lot of reasons. :) I'm glad to see Zoints sharing so many great hacks with the org.

*Clicked Install*

Oh ho!

So *thats* where it came from!

Nice one David. :)

A suggestion: I have found that it is nigh-impossible to reference what is said in the Thread proper...as it is with Hidden Posts. Perhaps a method of 'quoting' a specific post inside the Zoints Box would be doable?

BB code does work within the box. I assume that's not what you want though? Can you elaborate a little please :)

has anyone tried this with GARS? technically it should work with it right ?

Benj- it should work with GARS fine, since that's just a template mod. At least, that's what I think- I haven't used GARS much.

David- god damn, you're making every hack that I always wanted for my forum but never had! You're brilliant- all I gotta say.

Does that involve quotes? Maybe a button to auto-quote a post in the Mod Comments section would be a useful addition.

Also, perhaps letting users hide the mod comments box would be nice.

lnstalled very handy thanks
