Suggestion: Moderation in sandbox

[-GiЯ]

I would like to suggest allowing us to manage more within the scrapbox. (I don't know about anyone else because we can't see other's scraps.) But I think instead of moderating every thread, allow us to moderate them ourselves, since only we can see them (along with staff).

I have setup what I believe to be the best settings for a sandbox forum should be, allowing users to store what ever they need within them along with allowing them to delete whatever content when no longer needed. Having moderators in a sandbox environment is a little redundant but I believe still necessary (you never know who's posting what, always good to have someone monitoring) but sending every thread made to mod queue could be overwhelming for any staff member, and if a member is only seeing their threads and has no need for one no longer why not let them remove it without having to request for it to be removed... since this forum should not be indexed by search engines anyway.

And can we get a couple prefix's for this section?
-Test
-Note
-Important

Something along those lines

I know PC 3.0 is in the works, and none of this will matter soon but just a suggestion 🙃

This is how I would setup the forum (Forum Manager):
"image removed"

And the Forum Permissions for the usergroup (Forum Permissions):
"image removed"

I'm shocked @sheep hasn't noticed it yet ;)

Should be done! We had to leave out the ability to delete threads (closing a thread should be a good alternative in the meantime) and undelete posts for now due to issues with permissions, but most other things should be good to go. =)

That's awesome, I'm glad I could contribute something the staff liked =P

If you don't mind me asking what issues are you facing with permissions?

Something I faced when creating links from the mod options dropdown was them not verifying. I made a plugin to pass the hash also & it works, although this is in forumdisplay_start (because I havent added these types of options in showthread)

$var = $db->query_first("
SELECT hash FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "cpsession
WHERE userid = " . $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] . "
");

then pass &hash=$var[hash] to the link

I'm not sure of the issue you guys are running into so I can't be much help, it's just a problem I remember facing when doing something similar.
