Questions Regarding MyBB

[Jay]

Is there a way to perminantly remove the default group (Super Moderators, Moderators, Awaiting Activation) from MyBB?

There is a way but it's not a very good idea as it will give you problems/errors.

Re: MyBB Groups

Alright, thanks.

Also, mind helping me figure out why I get two yellow notification bars when I receive a PM?

Two, instead of one?

Mind taking a screenshot? That's more often than not a problem with the theme. Is it doing that on different themes? (Try switching to the default theme, and see if it's doing that) If not, it may be something with the core edits, or (very unlikely) a plugin problem.

Here you go. 😀

Alright. Do you have another theme you can change to? And if so, try changing to it and see if it does it on there. Either way, it might be just a template acting funky.

Go to ACP -> Templates & Styles -> and check the following templates

Header -> header
Look for duplicates of "{$pm_notice}". If there is a second one, remove it.

If not, go to
Global -> global_pm_alert
Check for duplicates of ANY part of this code.

<div class="pm_alert" id="pm_notice">
	<div class="float_right"><a href="private.php?action=dismiss_notice&amp;my_post_key={$mybb->post_code}" title="{$lang->dismis_notice}" onclick="return MyBB.dismissPMNotice()"><img src="{$theme['imgdir']}/dismiss_notice.gif" alt="{$lang->dismis_notice}" title="[x]" /></a></div>
	<div>{$privatemessage_text}</div>
</div><br />

If it's duplicated, remove the duplicate.

If not those too, then it MAY be a core problem you're having. But I would really doubt that.

That was the problem, thank! 😀

Also, will you volunteer and do some simple coding for my upcoming forum? You seem to know what your doing. :yes:

 

[Red Herring]

No problem. :great:

What kind of coding?

 

[Jay]

I'll send you a PM. 😀

 

[Red Herring]

Alright. 😉

You actually can, and not get errors, Well from what i see.

I changed the type in phpmyadmin -> mybb database -> tableprefix_usergroups -> edit a group to type 2 and deleted super moderators and didn't get a error, Made a group like super mods, And everything worked.

Maybe there are errors, Maybe not. But i agree with stephon, It's not a good idea.

Well I remember 1 or 2 threads on Mybb's support forum that they deleted the groups via the DB and screwed up their forum so that's why I suggested not too.

The only way I know is via the DB and I highly suggest you don't do this but why are you trying to in the first place?
