restrict post icons to admins/mods - metulburr - 2016-09-25
Is there a way to restrict post icons to admins and mods?
Everyone on the forum can see them, but only admins and mods can make the post icons choice.

This is a good question, I'm assuming the code would look something like this
if ($mybb->['gid'] == 4) {
//display post icons
} else {
//dont
}

no i mean not to display, but to add them.

The reason is no one uses them, and all we admins/mods use them for is is the I icon for information and such.
Is there a way to disable them completely?

Yes I understand, this code would still work, you would insert this only for new threads.
EDIT: Go to Post Icons in control pannel and delete all of them. You might need to edit some templates (displaythread)

You're familiar with HTML/CSS though? I'm going to do this to my forum, I've been wanting to do it for a while. I probably won't have time until tomorrow though. I'll post the code back here

yeah i could do that. But i was kinda hoping someone would come along and say put X line here and it will only allow mods and admins to insert post icons. lol

I foudn my answer to this
First install template conditionals plugin
then go to newreply and new thread templates and change posticon variable from this
{$posticons}to this
<if $GLOBALS['mybb']->user['usergroup'] == 4 || $GLOBALS['mybb']->user['usergroup'] == 3 then>{$posticons}</if>
