Currently "Report to moderator" messages are being sent to ALL Joomla's administrator & super administrators. I can't turn off the moderator status from these users in Fireboard's user manager: (not changeable, this user is an site (super)administrator)
It'd be better if there would be option for turning this feature off. Workaround could also be that admins with "Receive System E-mails" turned off in Joomla's user manager wouldn't receive these messages.

I find this as a problem because the site im running has 15 admins, and most of them don't actively use forums. Anyways, keep up the exellent work

Hi...

I had a related issue: I inserted additional usergroups and set the group-ids for these to the next free ids. My #__core_acl_aro_groups-table now has this content:

Code:

gid pid name lft rgt --------------------- 17 0 ROOT 1 26 28 17 USERS 2 25 29 28 Public Frontend 3 16 18 29 Registered 4 15 31 18 Group1 5 14 19 18 Author 6 13 20 19 Editor 7 12 32 20 Group2 8 11 21 32 Publisher 9 10 30 28 Public Backend 17 24 23 30 Manager 18 23 24 23 Administrator 19 22 25 24 Super Administrator 20 21 (additional groups are called "Group1" and "Group2" in this snippet)

The most of my users are members of these two groups.
Because the query for admins in function ReportMessage in the file report.php is

Code:

SELECT id FROM #__users WHERE gid >= 24;

quite all users get the report-message.

Too be continued...

... here comes the continuation:

To solve this, I changed it to

Code:

SELECT u.id FROM #__core_acl_aro_groups AS g1, #__core_acl_aro_groups AS g2, #__users AS u WHERE g1.group_id=24 AND g2.lft>=g1.lft AND g2.rgtable messages send to your admins. Bye Goodbyte

Sorry, I can't get this post not to screw up! I try to send the full response to trorram and toni by private message...

Thank you so much for pointing me to the right place.
Your query change didn't quite help me, it basicly retreived all my users as admins.
So this is what I came up with:

Change this, (*joomla_install*/components/com_fireboard/template/default/plugin/report/report.php row 97):

Code:

SELECT id FROM #__users WHERE gid >= 24

... to this:

Code:

SELECT id FROM #__users WHERE (gid = 24 OR gid = 25) AND sendEmail = 1

This sends reports only to admins & super admins with enabled "Receive System E-mails".

Yes, it's right, that the query, as you can see it in this forum, doesn't work correctly. Looks like the forum don't like "smaller or equal"-signs. I try to repeat the WHERE-clause:

WHERE g1.group_id "EQUALS" 24 AND g2.lft "GREATER_OR_EQUALS" g1.lft AND
g2.rgt "SMALLER_OR_EQUALS" g1.rgt AND
u.gid "EQUALS" g2.group_id

You have to replace "EQUALS", "GREATER_OR_EQUALS" and "SMALLER_OR_EQUALS" by the appropriate characters.
This query isn't meant to solve your issue. It's a suggestion to the admin to fix their query. It does quite the same like the original one, but has (quite) no problems with additional usergroups. Additionally it should be a pointer for you where to find the right place to customize the behaviour in the way you like it.

Hi,

Im having a similar problem with the report to moderator. Basically I have install JACLplus, and created a private group which has around 60 members. In this group, the group ID is 31 - Members are getting these report to moderator emails from the system. Is it because of the group ID is higher then the admin and super admin ID?

Thanks

Scott

Yes, that's exactly the same problem I had and you can use the suggested fix if the administrator-account still has the ID 24. In this case the administrator-group with ID 24 and every group below in the tree-view of the groups (by default only the super-administrator) will get the messages.

The query uses the "nesting-set"-structure of the groups-table to find the children of a node.

Bye
Goodbyte

so it would then look like this?

Code:

WHERE g1.group_id = 24 AND g2.lft > or = g1.lft AND g2.rgt

where am i putting this line in to?

try to wrap your example with the code line.
