Easy moderator tags

[motomac]

I want to share with you a simple instruction how you can easily add moderator tags to your IPS forum without any 3rd party plugins or styles.

First open your ACP and go to Customization -> Editor -> Toolbars and click Add button. Then choose Custom tab.

Specify your button options. For example:

• Button Title: Warning
• Icon: choose any icon. I can recommend a free icon pack IcoMoon:
  
• Type: Single Line Block
• Use option: No
• HTML:

<div class='ipsMessage ipsMessage_warning'>{content}</div>

Save.

Now click on the created icon and choose Permissions tab. Set which user groups can use this button.

After that drag&drop your new button to the editor. Your button is ready!

With the help of this instruction, you can add more moderator tags. IPS CSS framework has four message styles:

• ipsMessage_error
• ipsMessage_success
• ipsMessage_warning
• ipsMessage_info

You can simply use them by putting it into the button HTML code above.
