Custom Administrator Permissions
by
09 Sep 2005
Your Hack has an Admin Backend? Then you should consider protecting it with custom Admin Permissions - not every Admin has to be able to control everything. First of all, you have to decide on a uniqe Key for your Admin Permission, just like your Product ID. In this example I will use canadminmyhack. Go to your ACP File(s) and place the following Code below the Back-End requirement:
In your ACP Navigation XML Files, add the Parameter permissions to your Navgroup:
In order to display Text in the Admin Permissions Editor, you must create a Phrase in Phrasegroup Permissions:
Make sure that it is attached to your Product and inserted into GLOBAL Language! As the Permissions Editor only takes care of standard Permissions, you must create 4 Plugins: admin_permissions_form
customadminperms[canadminmyhack] must the Name of the Bit(field) you want to use, $vbulletin->bf_misc_customadminperms['canadminmyhack'] the Value of the Bit You must also create a Plugin for the Administrator Datamanager admindata_start
Now we need a Plugin to save our Permission setting after editing it: admin_permissions_process
Now, finally, we need a Plugin to actually check this Permission can_administer
Here again, $vbulletin->bf_misc_customadminperms['canadminmyhack'] must be the Value of your Bit. As you can see, I used customadminperms as the Bitfield. This is the Bitfield I will use for my Hacks, Bit 1 is already in use. If others want to use it too (to avoid having to create there own (Bit)fields) - feel free to do so. But please, first post here and state which Bit you are going to use and wait for an Okay so there won't be conflicts. To use it, create an appropriate Bitfield XML File. The following Install Code should be used then:
And this Uninstall-Code

@deathemperor
I don't know what you are talking about; $_CATEGORYOPTIONS does not seem to exist in any standard vBulletin 3.0 file. No members have liked this post.

I'm thinking if a bitfield_something.xml file would do the trick. No members have liked this post.

Yep, the ; is missing.
Well "Bitfield Usage customadminperms" just describes how this Bitfield is used, eg. what the Bits stand for

Therer was an apparent restructuring of the file class_dbalter.php changing the class and functions used in Kirby's uninstall example.
fetch_table_info has now changed to fetchTableInfo and drop_field has changed to dropField and lastly table_field_data has changed to fetchFieldInfo. new coding
Lastly TABLE_PREFIX is no longer needed... No members have liked this post.

I did everything the tutorial said and I can see the radio button in the admin permissions but when I click "yes" and save it, it goes back to "no".
Do I change customadminperms? No members have liked this post.
