About This File

Are you looking for staff? Developers? Designers? Or anything else? This application will help admins/moderators to find people to help in their boards.

Here's a quick rundown of some of the features for this resource:

• Extra Fields
• Module to add Positions on ACP (moderator, webdesigner, developer, etc)
• Ability to automatically move the "winner" member to a chosen group (you inform the group when you're adding the application record)
• Ability to restrict the application by: Content count, Reputation points/likes, Number of days as member, Minimum age and groups
• Ability to inform how many places the position has. Example: you can create an application record to "hire" 3 moderators.
• Module on ModeratorCP to view all pending records from all applications
• Compatible with most important features from IPS 4.2 (Recommended Comments, Content Message, Reactions, Member History, Richer Embeds, etc.)
• Fully integrated to the framework: tag system, follow system, report system, search system, activity streams, share Links, etc.
• Moderator actions on applications, comments and reviews
• Moderator permission to approve/reject applications
• Ability to create RSS feeds from member applications
• Etc.

Sorry to ask such a basic question but I wasn't able to tell from the screenshots.

Can guests apply?

I seem to recall this application on a previous version of IPS, and if I recall correctly it didn't but I seem to recall you said you'd look into it. This would be a great addition to my site, however I have very few members currently and 95% of my traffic is that of guests.

No. I really don't think interesting an admin promote someone that he doesn't know (as a member) to a staff position for 2 main reasons:

• You wouldn't be able to restrict the applications by the way you can for members:
  • you can require X number of posts; Y days as a member; Z rep points, etc
• The guest WILL have to create an account to become a staff member (since guests can't moderate), so I think it's better sooner than later.

I would be aiming to find media related team positions, such as writers and video creators.

Perhaps a toggle setting? *Allow guests to apply?

No, sorry. Add a checkbook it’s the easiest part. I would have to change a lot of things for this happen. I don’t see much sense in change everything to... nothing, as the account will need to be created later. 

It’s just a question of workflow, opinion, etc. Not even Commerce allow guests to buy.

Hello my friends Adriano no fun Staff application system   

after the correct installation when I enter the application in the main tab of the forum, the page in WHITE is attached, screenshot.  http://prntscr.com/hx1ehj.   http://prntscr.com/hx1esf

@cristian romero garcia

White screen only?

Leave a PM with your ACP credentials. I’ll take a look tomorrow in the morning. I’m on a mobile device now and can’t do much.

I have the same issue @Adriano Faria

 

I have the same issue @Adriano Faria

This is pretty weird. Send a PM. The other user still didn’t send. (actually sent but there’s a htaccess password that he didn’t tel me).

Need to see if there’s something in the logs. 

Edited January 7, 20187 yr by Adriano Faria

No worries, details have been sent.

Will take a look. Tks. 

Reeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaally weird. It's the FURL again. /applications doesn't work. /staffapplications works fine. The thing is that /applications isn't used anywhere, so it *should* work.

@Joey_M, your board is working fine. I will add a new feature now so I won't update it on IPS right now.

 

Reeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaally weird. It's the FURL again. /applications doesn't work. /staffapplications works fine. The thing is that /applications isn't used anywhere, so it *should* work.

/applications is a folder on the file system where the applications are stored.

That explain it so... I thought it would have any issue only with another FURL.

Tks. I already changed it.

What's New in Version 1.0.1:

New Feature:

• Added support to Forums app as a new setting in the category
  • A topic will be created when a new application is submitted
  • This topic will be udpated everytime the application is edit to reflex the changes

Fix:

• Changed FURL to avoid blank screen error

@cristian romero garcia, update your install with newest version. Will fix the blank issue error.

——————————————

I received two PMs with similar doubts so i added this note to the file description and will add it here too:

Permission: NO ONE except staff (with proper permisison) will be able to view/read or know who are the applicants. All that regular members will know is the number of users who applied to it.

Can applicants send attachments when applying for a position @Adriano?

If not, please would you add it? This would be an awesome addition, as I wrote before purchasing I am looking for graphic designers and writers - assessing their skills will be paramount to who myself and my partner accept.

No, not currently. I'll give some thought for a further version. Saying that because I'm planning a much bigger feature to the app (questions and answers) so the applicant can interact with staff before they approve or reject it. But I don't have an ETA yet. It can be next week or next month.

There's no rush, I just feel it would benefit people - not just myself.

The Q/A addition would be a welcomed feature. I have to say, I think the system is awesome. I wasn't going to purchase it, yet I liked how neat it makes things and I feel it gives a professional feel to my site. Top work!

Just purchased/installed. I created a new Application and it is listed on the Applications page. However, when  click on the Application to see the details and Apply it goes to a Classified Advert page. Any idea what could cause this?

Wasn’t you that sent a PM a few days back with same issue in another app?

It has absolutely nothing to do with Classifieds. 

Unless you have changed the FURL from Classifieds. Do you?

No, it was another user. Please, send a Pm with credentials. I’ll take a look tomorrow in the morning. 

I've been checking my PMs and Posts, haven't found it yet. It does sound familiar though. I know it's not the Classifieds, that's just where it's going. I'm an old fart with a lot going on so sometimes I forget some things. I'll keep checking.

Yes, it was an issue in the Classifieds FURL. I just updated your board and it's ok. I already contacted the Classifieds dev to release a new version.

Tks.
