this seems like an awesome mod. I'm gonna check it out some time soon.

Excellent addon for my forum - just what I need :)

(now to figure out how to prevent user from changing their age via their CP once they have registered ;) ) .

<font color="red">Reserved</font>

Do the template edit provided, that should remove the bday options from the usercp but not register.

i get this in 3.6.8

%1$s, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

any ideas the bold part is the problem

Good mod, however :
1) If I set up an "Over 18s" forum, it STILL shows in the forum list to under 18s. This is not good. It makes them curious :(
2) When setting things in the vBulletin control panel, you should use a drop down menu (defaulting to "older") rather than a text entry field.

I've had to uninstall this mod because my teen users were complaining that there were forums they could not see. I've installed this mod instead. I do think that Age Lock is a better mod, however, it lacks the ability to hide forums from the forum list. If it had that feature I'd definately use it instead.

Hi AngelBlue,
thanks for the comments,

however i dont see the advantage of hiding forums from visitors, maybe this is just me but i want my visitors too see what they can get?? i know in most cases if they see an adult section they will make a new account old enough to gain access but that's the choice of the user, it also passes any legal implacations onto them and off you

that said the next update will (hopefully :) ) include this feature as an extra option for those who do wish to hide them.

On another note any feature request would be greatful.

Thanks

Stuie

Does this work smoothly with 3.6.8?
Is there an ETA for the stable release? I see this is still in Beta stage.

A feature request: if the template modification for this hack is more than one line, then please add a Template Modification System XML.

When I made my first 18+ forum, I got a bunch of drama on my forums. Teens were complaining about there being an 18+ forum that they couldn't go to.

Forums can generate enough drama as is. No reason to encourage people to generate more.

Plus, it helps to cut down the forum display list when you have a big forum with lots of sub-forums.
