did you all repleace the XX in the template with the default posts/per page number?

This seems like an awesome hack. Great Idea.

I am still quite new to VB and Code.

Is it possible to stop guests seeing a thread after the first three posts (sorry for being difficult)?

I just think if the guest sees the convo start a little, he or she would be more inclined to register or login.

Most of my threads don't go past 10 posts. So I'm thinking that having guests only allowed to read the first page of a thread may not really have much of an effect on my forums, which I why I ask about stopping them after the first three posts.

And can we tailor the error message to say that they need to log in or register before they can keep reading the thread?

Sorry for the Noob questions. :bunny:

Thanks

hmm, try using this one

add this to the very beginning of your postbit or postbit_legacy
Code:

<if condition="$post[postcount] > 3 and !$bbuserinfo['userid']">
<!-- Start Error Message -->
<if condition="$show['spacer']">
    $spacer_open
    <div id="edit$post[postid]" style="padding:0px 0px $stylevar[cellpadding]px 0px">
    <if condition="!$post['islastshown']"><!-- this is not the last post shown on the page --></if>   
</if>
<table id="post$post[postid]" class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr><td class="alt1" id="td_post_$post[postid]">
<div><b>Guests may only view 3 posts of a thread. You need to register to get full access. <a href="register.php" rel="nofollow">Click here to register.</a>
</b></div>
</td></tr>
</table>
<if condition="$show['spacer']">
    </div>
    $spacer_close
</if>
<!-- End Error Message -->
<else />

then add to the end of your template
Code:

</if>
but this one will add an error message in each post higher than 3

i don't think so because your archive pages are not affected by this

but if your showthread pages are seo'd you might try to set a "rel=nofollow" tag to each link in the page navigation

Bison 03-27-2006 09:38 PM

My mind tells me that there's more code needed to hide threads beyond the threshold that you'd like guests to see and that it would require hacking the showthread.php. Somehow you will have to check how many posts are currently within a thread and when you reach the number of posts you set, a call to a phrase that prints the error message should be displayed to include a link to the register link.

ok i have a problem with this,for some unknown reason its showing the posts after the warning,and the display is all over the place,i have used your code in postbit only,this is what ive put in
Code:

<if condition="$post[postcount] > 10 and !$bbuserinfo['userid']">
<if condition="$post[postcount]%10 == 1">
<!-- Start Error Message -->
<if condition="$show['spacer']">
    $spacer_open
    <div id="edit$post[postid]" style="padding:0px 0px $stylevar[cellpadding]px 0px">
    <if condition="!$post['islastshown']"><!-- this is not the last post shown on the page --></if>   
</if>
<table id="post$post[postid]" class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr><td class="alt1" id="td_post_$post[postid]">
<div><b>Guests may only view the first page of a thread. You need to register to get full access. <a href="register.php" rel="nofollow">Click here to register.</a>
</b></div>
</td></tr>
</table>
<if condition="$show['spacer']">
    </div>
    $spacer_close
</if>
<!-- End Error Message -->
<else /></if><else />

here is my postbit template
Code:

<if condition="$post[postcount] > 10 and !$bbuserinfo['userid']">
<if condition="$post[postcount]%10 == 1">
<!-- Start Error Message -->
<if condition="$show['spacer']">
    $spacer_open
    <div id="edit$post[postid]" style="padding:0px 0px $stylevar[cellpadding]px 0px">
    <if condition="!$post['islastshown']"><!-- this is not the last post shown on the page --></if>   
</if>
<table id="post$post[postid]" class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr><td class="alt1" id="td_post_$post[postid]">
