Posted a small change which would fix a stupid bug on my part, it just changes the one line.

PHP Code:


		
			
Change



$lastthreads=$DB_site->query("SELECT dateline FROM thread WHERE dateline > UNIX_TIMESTAMP(NOW())-3600 AND postusername='$bbuserinfo[username]'");



to 

        $lastthreads=$DB_site->query("SELECT dateline FROM thread WHERE dateline > UNIX_TIMESTAMP(NOW())-3600 AND postusername='".addslashes($bbuserinfo[username])."'");

Excellent idea. Is there a way to add a setting that you can change in the Admin CP? ;)

I suppose there is :)

I'll look into how everyone else did it, I took the easy way out because I didn't feel like touching the database at all (aside from adding the template), but I'll see what I can do.

Here you go Boofo. To work with admin options simply go to forums/admin/setting.php then add a setting to the relevant group - it generates a qury and it allows you to work with a variable which is an option when creating the setting ;)

Then this variable with its value (e.g. 5) can be used throughout every php page which includes global.php :)

Can this hack be made some people can only post some many times ina CERTAIN forum? as opposed to the entire forum? and have the time extened to say a person can only post twice in 24 hours (from their first post) in Forum A - but can post all they want as often as they want in Forum B?
