[EAE Add-ons] Conversation Tools 1.4.3

[valaiVerified member]

By purchasing this add-on you also agree that EAE Addons, and the author will not be held responsible for any lost/deleted conversations.

This add-on allows admins with the proper permission to view and delete user conversations and batch prune conversations within the administrator control panel. This add-on is useful in a number of ways: to better understand a reported conversation message as you can follow the flow of the conversation, find old in-active conversations that are just taking up space, or to find and remove spam conversations, to name a few.

See all updates for new added features, and screen shots.

Options->Admin control panel:

• Change view attachment browser link

AdminCP->Content->EAE Conversation tools:

• Find conversations
• Plum conversations

Administrator permission:

- EAE Manage conversations

Features:

• Can set the attachment browser to use the conversation browser when viewing an attachment with the content type conversation message. This setting is ignored if the viewing administrator does not have EAE Manage conversations permission
• Paginated, set to fetch 20 conversations per page and 20 conversation messages per page
• Find conversations by username or title. When by username you can select started by, or all conversations
• From the find conversations page you can delete a conversation or selected conversations (a confirmation pop-up will appear). Click the conversation title to view the conversation
• BBCode is supported when viewing conversations
• When viewing conversations, attachments are served through the Admin CP. A lightbox is used to view images when applicable, otherwise viewing an image works the same as the attachment browser
• You can also use the Conversation tools to prune conversations with no replies after x days, or when last reply was x days ago. Before you can actually prune conversations, a count is returned first to show the number of conversations you are about to permanently delete
• You may include moderators and administrators conversations when pruning. The default is set to exclude their conversations. If you choose to include moderator conversations, administrators that are also moderators will be excluded
• Pruning is handled by a job runner. You can hit cancel while pruning, but be warned that you may end up deleting a large amount of conversations if you decide to change your mind

When pruning conversations you may want to set the days to a high number and get the count before proceeding. The default is set to 365 days. Note that this add-on has the potential to delete all conversations depending on your settings. Deleted conversations can only be restored from a back-up, so back-up your database first.

Version 1.4.0 Bug fixes, changes, and new features added.
Bug fixes:
trying to access array offset on value of type null (Listener), that was thrown on certain circumstances.
fixed a template bug that would display the wrong phrase for who can be blind carbon copied.
Added features:
added a conversation monitor widget. This widget monitors conversations started by those who registered within X hours. Defaulted in the widget at 48 hours, but you may want to increase this. Clicking a conversation in the widget allows you to view that conversation. Clicking the widget title takes you to your conversation page and lists any started conversations by members that registered within X hours. Defaulted to 48 hours in the conversation tools options page. You may want to set this to a higher value than the widget.
added a link to view user conversations in the member tooltip, under moderators options. This link, and the Find conversation link on a user profile page now lists all conversations for the member, not just started conversations. This was changed for the sake of convenience when it came to reported conversations.
Permissions: Conversation moderator permissions: [EAE] Can view conversation widget. Defaulted to No on install. Note that [EAE] Can view user conversations permission must be set to Yes.

Options: Monitor cutoff time (hours). Display conversations started by members whose registration date is within these many hours. Defaulted to 48.

Queries: one for those who have permission to view the conversation monitor.

Screen shots: Don't mind the number of hours displayed in the screen shots, I just didn't want to create another new user and create more conversations.

Version 1.4.1 Compatibility changes: Compatibility update for @Xon's Conversation Essentials add-on.

Version 1.4.2 Compatibility update:

If you have @Xon's Conversation Essentials installed and the option Prevent conversation hard-delete checked, this update will display a reminder/warning that the option must be un-checked before conversations can be deleted or pruned.

Note, if you have Prevent conversation hard-delete option checked, you can still view pruning conversations counts. You just can not prune conversations until you physically un-check that option. This is by design to respect that setting as you have set it for a valid reason.

Version 1.4.3: PHP 8.0.X compatibility update
updated the order of arguments sent to the removeBccRecips method to be compatible with PHP 8.0+
