Just to mention what I observed with TapaTalk installed: It doesn't affect only TapaTalk users, it affects all users.

I'm not saying that this is the reason why your users can bypass restrictions you created, but just mention that when I used some versions of TapaTalk, I made double posts and I don't use TapaTalk at all.

A little help if it can be done?

This is on top of the thread,
"You are restricted from posting in this thread."

When member clicks to read the thread, he goes to the last post, down the thread.
Actually he does not see buttons to answer but he does not realize why he cannot. (until he goes to the top, if he goes)

Is there a way how I can show this announcement in two places? up & down the thread.
or down instead up.

Thank you.

I will see what I can do about that tonight. :)

When you have some spare time (I know you don't) :D
Just tell me how I can make it or what to change - insert, don't bother anything else.

Thank you.

Well, what I would do is look in the "SHOWTHREAD" template for a good template hook location to display the message. The existing message uses:

Now, when I look at the template, I find also:

And so that's where I will first try displaying the message as well.

But, that's much lower on the page than I would like...the closest I can get with the default template hooks is here:

I have drawn an arrow indicating where I think it would be better place. So, I will have to write a plugin that puts a custom template hook where I need it to be (so we can avoid any pesky manual template edits). :)

Update - Version 1.9.5:

• Restricted posting message on both the "forum display" and "show thread" pages now displayed both above and below threads/posts.

Thank you for the update, very nice. Message is in the places as supposed to be.

A worthy change ! Thanks guys .

To try and 'solve' my multi-posters I've checked Forum & Children individually and Grouped, rather Forum and checking Admin>Child setting. May be working more reliably???

Update - Version 1.9.6:

• Fixed bug where only last individual forum|restriction was recognized on some servers.

Any hope to have an option, restrict and by threads ? :)
