Staff Applications System


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

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.

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.

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.

/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.

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. :sick:

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.
