Not Supported Code Changes Translations

Some may not have noticed, but vb4 no longer supports restricting Moderators from viewing Join-To-View/Invite Only content.

This modification does the following:
- Restricts Moderator access
- Hides the display of Social Groups set to Invite Only/Join-To-View (similar to this)

These are file edits. Back up your original files.

Included in the zip are changed files which can be used as replacements; for those that prefer to make the changes manually, here they are.

1) In /group.php
Find (~ line365):

Code:

// If a group id is specified, but the group doesn't exist, error out
if ($vbulletin->GPC['groupid'])
{
    $group = fetch_socialgroupinfo($vbulletin->GPC['groupid'], true);
    if (empty($group))
    {
        standard_error(fetch_error('invalidid', $vbphrase['social_group'], $vbulletin->options['contactuslink']));
    }

Replace with:

Code:

// If a group id is specified, but the group doesn't exist, error out
if ($vbulletin->GPC['groupid'])
{
    $group = fetch_socialgroupinfo($vbulletin->GPC['groupid'], true);
    if (empty($group))
    {
        standard_error(fetch_error('invalidid', $vbphrase['social_group'], $vbulletin->options['contactuslink']));
    }
    $group = prepare_socialgroup($group);
    // Disallow everything except joining if you can't view a
    // group's content.
    if(
        !$group['canviewcontent']
        AND $group['type'] == 'inviteonly'
        AND $_REQUEST['do'] != 'join'
        AND $_REQUEST['do'] != 'dojoin'
    )

}

                $grouplist .= $templater->render();
