[InTeNsE-HuMoR]

The admin cp settings (for editing the rules) don't show up. All files have been uploaded and edits made. :(

[akanevsky]

Please refresh the admincp after uploading both the prduct and the files.

[FreshFroot]

great stuff mate!

[InTeNsE-HuMoR]

Please refresh the admincp after uploading both the prduct and the files.

Thanks for your response. It was actually my fault. Forgot to upload 1 file but all is working now. Is there any chance of allowing us to remove the copyright notice? Maybe if we paid to remove it like your other hacks have the option?

Ok, thanks! Instead of donating, I think I will purchase one of your other hacks sometime soon. I have my eye on your invites system and already have your interactive profiles modification. Great work btw, love your mods! :)

Once again, thank you very much for the release! I've always used your rules hack since it's the best there ever was. :)

Can you add certain rules to certain forums so that if you want to warn users as to a specific content of a single forum they have to tick to agree on that particular forum's rules?

[nnjj.net]

what if I want to add it to the navbar?

[nnjj.net]

any one help?

[chatzworld]

add the link in the navbar section when you go to edit styles :)

[nnjj.net]

There is a mod that forces users to read a thread, maybe this can be adapted. Do a search :)

[ColdSpirit]

Well the problem is that i have made a search and only found for the version 3.0 and none for 3.6.x(8)..

Thank you anyway...

[dcpaq2xx]

How do I go about changing the wording for "Forum Rules" ?

Thanks

Doug

[DjLuv]

[Unsterblich]

[fodvapor]

Great mod...but im not brave enough to do any template changes. Dont want to screw everything up...lol

Downloaded but not going to install just yet....thx for mod

[Alphawolf83]

Is it possible to force users to accept the rules before posting/viewing the forum?

[akanevsky]

German translation added to the first post, thank you Sebijk.

Is it possible to force users to accept the rules before posting/viewing the forum?

Yes, but this hack does not provide such functionality. I think there's another hack that does just that, not sure though.

[Greek76]

Is it just me but once I installed this product I have a few users that get banned upon registering to the forum...

[lafsunlmtd]

when i installed this, everything works on the back end, but i am getting a blank white page for rules.php
