after quick post delete, it says 'returning to thread' but returns to forum instead of thread

this is the hack i used
http://www.xmbforum2.com/hacks/quick-post-delete-2.0.zip

This has not been tested.
Make a backup copy of post.php then edit post.php and upload after changing -


Find:

$deletevalid = TRUE; // This new flag will indicate a message was submitted and successful.

Add after:

$rtnfid = FALSE;


Find:
$db->query("DELETE FROM ".X_PREFIX."threads WHERE tid=$tid OR closed='moved|$tid'");

Add after:

$rtnfid=TRUE;


find:
updateforumcount($fid);

Add after:

if ($rtnfid) {


find:
message($lang['editpostmsg'], TRUE, '', '', $full_url.'forumdisplay.php?fid='.$fid, true, false, true);

Add after:

} else {
message($lang['editpostmsg'], TRUE, '', '', $full_url.'viewthread.php?tid='.$tid, true, false, true);
}

there are two instances of updateforumcount($fid);
after which one should
if ($rtnfid) {
be added ?

The one mentioned in the original hack instructions.

how to make 'delete' button/option visible only to mods/admin ?
because in my board, edit/delete option is disabled for members

It would be helpful to know if the changes already provided worked as per the original request.

sorry..i forgot to mention but above changes suggested are working perfectly fine

but how to disable 'delete' button for all members, except mods/admin

can someone plz update me on this...

viewthread.php

Find:

Code:

$delete = ''; if (modcheckPost($self['username'], $forum['moderator'], $post['status']) == 'Moderator' || ($thread['closed'] != 'yes' && $post['author'] == $xmbuser)) { eval('$delete = "'.template('viewthread_post_delete').'";'); }

Replace:

Code:

$delete = ''; if (X_STAFF && modcheckPost($self['username'], $forum['moderator'], $post['status']) == 'Moderator' || ($thread['closed'] != 'yes' && $post['author'] == $xmbuser)) { eval('$delete = "'.template('viewthread_post_delete').'";'); }

okay that didnt work for me.
members were still able to see delete button.

so i made this change

replaced the code you mentioned , with this code

Code:

$delete = ''; if (modcheckPost($self['username'], $forum['moderator'], $post['status']) == 'Moderator') { eval('$delete = "'.template('viewthread_post_delete').'";'); }
