The [USML] Advanced Signature Options Version 1.2.0 allows you to prevent users from posting any kind of links in their signatures until they reach a certain post count (by default, this is set to 5). Now, you can already do this by default in vBulletin, however, it only prevents the users from posting full links. i.e. "www.somewebsite.com", whereas, this modification prevents them from also using "somewebsite.com" in their signatures.

Features

Exclude certain usergroups from the restrictions put in place.

Updated to version 1.1.0
1.1.0 (24 APR 2011):
- Added restriction by reputation
- Added version checking

Also, if you have 1.0.0 installed, uninstall that version before installing 1.1.0 as this one was basically a complete rewrite.

Hi! Was wondering if this mod would only apply to new accounts or if it would affect members currently using sig links. We want to mass remove current signature links as well as disable the option for new members.
We look forward to your reply. Thanks!

It would be doubly cool if you could include a tick box for admin to get an email every time someone changes their signature. This is for when clever spammers make posts, let them sink in the forums, and then change their signatures for prescription drug, etc. keyworded link spam.
