View Other's Posts

[Princeton]

Is there such a thing as "View Other's Posts"? There is a "View Others' Threads"; but, I am interested in prohibiting members from seeing others' posts from a thread.

I thought it existed but I cannot find anything...

in vB3 it could be done with some conditionals

my mind is stuck on vbs' permissions-based system ... thank you for waking me up; this option will definately work

<if condition="$bbuserinfo[userid] == $post[userid]">Post here </if>
that shoudl work :) for a quick fix

good solution for some but I decided to go the permissions-based route .... this will control access via printthread and archives

thank you

I got it working... it works perfectly!
Here's how I currently have it:
The thread starter can view all posts submitted into their thread.
Only the first post (postcount=1) is visible to everyone.
Replies(s) submitted by a member can be viewed by that member.
This is set on a per forum basis ... not every forum needs this function.
This can be set on a per usergroup setting.
