View Usernotes Given
Mod Version: 1.00, by Reven

This product will allow all current staff on your forum view usernotes they have given to members of your community. All moderators, super moderators and administrators are able to view a list of usernotes, the users they were given to, and links to either view or edit each.

The usernotes are divided into pages, each with ten. Staff can browse through each page of usernotes using the navigation menu at the bottom right of the table.

Your staff can view their posted usernotes by going to:

http://www.example.com/forums/misc.php?do=viewusernotesgiven
(vBulletin.org truncates this link. Please copy this link to your clipboard and paste it into a text editing program for the full link, or hover over the link in your browser.)

Where http://www.example.com/forums/ is the path to your forum root. You can decide whether or not you want to edit a template somewhere on your site in order to show a permanant link to this page, but I found the feature worked best as a link in a sticky within my staff forum. Adding functionality in order to show a link to the page somewhere on the forum only visible to staff would create an extra query for everyone, not just staff, which is a bad overhead for such a small forum feature.

Non-staff are shown the normal contents of misc.php (Smilies) if they access the page.

Features

• Lets moderators, super moderators and administrators view all usernotes they have posted through one page.
• Divides usernotes into groups of ten per page, in order to prevent large loading times.
• Images are not shown, so as not to stretch the page dimensions. Smilies, BB code and HTML/PHP/Code tags are all shown as normal.
