Disabling Moderator Inheritance

[wnd]

I'm trying to figure out how to prevent moderators from being inherited from a parent forum.

I managed to disallow the ability itself, but now I'm having trouble with modifying the cache so that the moderator no longer displays as a moderator of that forum.

I've modified class_datacache.php, specifically the build_moderators function, in a way that prevents the parent forum's moderators from being added to the moderator list of that forum:

PHP Code:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19

private function build_moderators($moderators=array(), $pid=0) { if($this->moderators_forum_cache[$pid]) { foreach($this->moderators_forum_cache[$pid] as $main) { foreach($main as $forum) { $forum_mods = ''; if($this->moderators[$forum['fid']]) { $forum_mods = $this->moderators[$forum['fid']]; } $this->built_moderators[$forum['fid']] = $forum_mods; $this->build_moderators($forum_mods, $forum['fid']); } } } }

---

However, even after rebuilding the cache with this new change, the moderator still continues to appear. What am I missing? I've looked at the function update_moderators above it, but it doesn't seem to have anything adding the parent moderators to the subforums.

(If this is in the wrong forum, a move would be appreciated.)
