Please click Mark as Installed if you are using this hack.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: This hack can only be used by Super Administrators. What Does This Hack Do? This is a major update (a virtual re-write, there is very little original code left) of Dream's Read PMs hack v0.7. Permission for me to release this hack is shown here, and blessings are given by Dream here. This hack will allow you as a Super Administrator to read your member's private messages. Please, lets not get into a discussion in this support thread about the suitability of this hack and invading privacy etc, (I have seen this happen in other threads, so, I am pre-empting people before it starts). If you have a moral objection to this hack, please don't comment on it, just don't install it, it is as simple as that. This hack is here for people who want to use it, I have no opinion about it one way or the other. Original Features by Dream:
Question: How do I hide the Read PMs link?Answer: The only way to do so, is to not upload cpnav_rpm.xml and to use a shortcut/bookmark to http://<your-forum-path-here>/admincp/read_pms.php? instead. vBulletin Version Compatibility This hack can be used with vBulletin versions 4.0.0 - 4.2.1. The version of this hack can be used with v3.8.0, v3.7.0, v3.6.0 and later versions is available here. Hack Support IMPORTANT: This hack is no longer supported. Branding There is a small unobtrusive block of copyright branding text at the bottom of each page generated by this hack, which is there to promote my work and allow you to use this hack for free. Install/Uninstall Instructions IMPORTANT: THERE ARE NO FILES TO IMPORT INTO THE ADMINCP The readme.txt instructions file is included in attached .zip file. The upgrade instructions are exactly the same as the install instructions. Translations Official Language Files (included in the zip file):

I also get the invalid specified file error when attempting to import the XML file from my computer. Becasue I'm not using any languages than english, and we don't have to upload any files to our AdminCP folder, wouldn't importing the XML file be my only step? Appologies for the confusion.
UPDATE: OK, I missunderstood the directions so, I got the read_pms.php and read_pms_eng.php files uploaded to the AdminCP folder and the XML file uploaded to the XML folder but I cannot see the option under "Users" in the vB admincp that should say "Read PMs". Any ideas on what the issue is or what I need to change? UPDATE....again: It works. Appologies for the confusion...its been one of those days. Thanks for the mod and I marked it as installed.

I'm also getting: "Invalid File Specified"
I have uploaded - read_pms.php read_pms_eng.php For example ->> They're sitting in /forum/admincp/read_pm_eng.php I then either imported cpnav_rpm.xml or placed it in the correct folder. Both ways resulted in the above error. I made both .php files 777 on VB 4.2 PL3 Any ideas? The following members like this post: Markowitch

Is there any way to make smileys work with this? Currently the path to the smilies on my forum is being messed up because the admincp directory is being included in the path and because of this smilies that are used in the PMs are not showing up and a broken image picture is shown instead.
The actual path to smilies:
But this mod shows the PM and makes this the path to the smilies:
Anyone know of a fix? Running this on 4.2.1. No members have liked this post.

The easy fix is just place a copy of your smilies folder at that location.

Thanks for the mod, works great!
Quick question though, Is there anyway I can restrict the access to a different usergroup than super administrators ? No members have liked this post.

I'd say check around line 80 in read_pms.php, there is a check for supermoderators there (that did not actually work on my forum (4.2.1 PL1) as intended).
