I would like a popup window with a "yes" or "no" asking, "Are you sure this is a valid review?" (or whatever you wanted it to say) this way a poster can be asked, are you sure you are posting this in the right area!??
This would help to eliminate moderators having to moderate simple posts, from deleting to approving.
Hope that is more clear. Thanks!

You might want to look at this mod and maybe modify it for your needs - Cyb - Prevent Newbies from Posting to Wrong Forum (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=177952)

that is close! yes, we have newbies posting in the wrong area, and are posting a non-review in the review section. BUT we also have long term members doing it by accident. So ideally I would like to see a popup for just that section/forum to ensure they are posting in the right section, no matter what their post count is.
Very CLose though Lynne! thanks for trying ...
any other ideas?

I haven't looked at the code for that modification, but you may be able to modify it and instead of checking for postcount, you check for forumid.

You cab use a simple javascript alert window when you click the post button that will alert them. It won't stop them but at least they will get the warning.
