Kareha Admin Tripcode

Good evening (or morning) all,

This has probably been covered, but for the life of me, I can't find any mention of it. I have just installed v1.0.7 onto a MR3020, and am configuring the Kareha board. I want to have a tripcode / passcode so that when I post in the forum, instead of "MonCapitan !KjgbjRVFJBY" (or something) it shows "MonCapitan ##Admin##", so that no-one can post claiming to be me. Please find below a copy of my board's config.pl (with sanitised fields).

Also, I have read that there is a "Special Admin Screen" to control and edit the board. I;ve looked up all the PirateBox and Kareha documentation I can find, but I can't see any info on how to access it. Could I be mistaken?

Thank you all in advance.

good question.
Never heard of a "Special Admin Screen" so far :-/

Saving your name: I would rather say, it is not covered by that simple software. mh.

I've been going through what I can find, and dedicated hours (and beers) to trying to figure this out.

From what I can see, this line is what I'm after:

#use constant CAPPED_TRIPS => ('!!example1'=>' capcode','!!example2'=>' <em>cap</em>'); # Admin tripcode hash, for startng threads when locked down, and similar. Format is '!trip'=>'capcode', where 'capcode' is what is shown instead of the trip. This can contain HTML, but keep it valid XHTML!

It seems if I and the right tripcode in the script, the board will show the 'capcode' instead of the trip. For example, if I enter "MonCapitan#banana" the board returns with "MonCapitan!5RRtZawAKg".

All-powerful logic indicates that if I add the line:

#use constant CAPPED_TRIPS => '!5RRtZawAKg'=>' ADMIN'

then enter the name "MonCapitan#banana" it *should* return with "MonCapitan ADMIN", but all experiments have failed, with the board returning the raw tripcode. I have tried putting the add-in line before and inside the brackets... Maybe it is a lost cause. But darn-it I'll keep trying!

OH MY GOSH! I'm such a dunce... You know when you can't find something, and as soon as you open your mouth to ask for help, you see it? That's what happened here...

There is a hash # at the start of the use constant CAPPED_TRIPS line. Once I saw that, it worked out.

Now the line reads:

use constant CAPPED_TRIPS => ('!5RRtZawAKg'=>' ADMIN','!!example1'=>' capcode','!!example2'=>' <em>cap</em>');

and when "MonCapitan#banana" is entered as the post name, the post output reads "MonCapitan ADMIN"

I would also like to point out that multiple "admins" can be setup in this way, just make sure that they all have commas in between (rewrite the 'examples' in the brackets!).

Eureka! Huzzah! I certainly hope my little SNAFU can be of benefit to someone out there...

And a big kudos to Matthias, for his patience is that of a saint!

Picture for triumphant resolution

Very cool!
Thanks for documenting it here. Do you want to insert an article on our piratebox.cc-wiki?

Let me know, I would generate you an account.

Matthias

Would love to, I'll get started on a more concise version. Please PM me the details.

Hi,
you should get an email in the next minutes including your password.

It would be great, if you can create the page Generic-Mods-Customize_imageboard (linked).

Beside the steps some words for further explanation would be very cool!

Many thanks!

Best regards
Matthias
