So whats stopping anyone saying they are over 18 when they are not.

Neal-UK

Well at least you are trying to stop them from looking, therefore their parents can't have a go at you but only themselves for not watching their child. Plus, it complies with USA legislation doesn't it?

Nothing, it works on the basis that you trust your members. it's impossible for you to prevent people signing up with a fake bday unless you required proff of there D.O.B, however as Neal-UK points out it helps to cover your back by providing a service which attempts to prevent underage viewing of adult material.

thanks

I should have had that earlier :) In the moment I solved the "problem" what I had a usergroup with a disclaimer where people agreed to be 18 or over when joining .. but this is way better ...

Little confussed? If I have a site that contains both 18 and up forums and teenage allowed forums can I set which forums to be tagged with must be 18 or is this a global setting?

What would be cool is if the system lets you register even if you are under 18 but you can set what forums you must be 18 to enter. I have my site setup that way and it works sweet.

You can register with any age with a disclaimer that some forums you must be at least 18 to enter but I allow all age registrations. When that registered member tries to enter a forum that is for "Adults Only" they are prompted with a warning and they must agree that they are 18 years of age to enter but the down fall is that my age verification prompt does not check with the registered bday but is good enough to be comlient since the member is having to check a box and agree that they are 18 years of age and its logged.

You can see it here www.seekingadultfriends.com

You can set up a rule on a forum too forum basis,
Age Lock allows you to specify how old or young they have to be before they can access the forum.

So you can have a forum that is only for under 18's, which would prevent anyone older than 18 to enter it while at the same time you could have another forum which is for over 18's

this is very handy for our board, thank you.

however, would it be possible to do it so some usergroups are immune to the check?

Question,

has the upload folder been placed in the wrong place in the zip file?

or do you not upload the files for version 3.6?

the only upload folder is in vb3.5.1

Thanks
Derek

Same question I was JUST about to come on here and ask

stuie_b

there are no uploads required for 3.6 you simply need to install the plugin file and do the template changes, sorry for not being so clear

does this only work on a forum basis or can i make it so people can't even register unless they are of a certain age?

FYI:

Age Lock - Global Setup

changed:

PHP Code:


		
			
$agelock_qry = $db->query_first("SELECT * FROM forum WHERE forumid='".$fid."'");

To:

PHP Code:


		
			
$agelock_qry = $db->query_first("SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "forum WHERE forumid='".$fid."'");

The query in the global_start hook did not have the TABLE_PREFIX included in the query making the modification fail on my board. With the change as indicated above the modification now works. For Ver 3.5.X

Thank you very much. I NEEDED this!

Is the age inclusive or exclusive?

inclusive: I want the forums to be only access to those who are 18 or older I enter 18 as the age lock.

exclusive: I want the forums to be only access to those who are 18 or older I enter 17 as the age lock.

If using the exclusive scheme will someone who has turned 17 and two months old have access?

Got a database error after installation trying to see if it worked or not, and it doesn't for me.....

Code:

Database error in vBulletin 3.6.0 Release Candidate 2:



Invalid SQL:

SELECT * FROM forum WHERE forumid='14';

See post number 18 on how to fix it.

In the plugin system | plugin manager | global_start hook edit Age Lock - Global Setup as per post 18 "To:". The "TABLE_PREFIX" was left off the query.

Ok, next question....this.....

Quote:

Older or Younger?
Should the user be older or younger. (Younger or Older)

The default value is '0', but what do you put to determine the 'Older' or 'Younger'?

This is a pretty good hack but it would be nice to be able to set a global min age. I only allow users 16 and older to register then 18 and older to view certain forums.

Can I just lock off one forum,

Example:-

User who is 12.

She can see all the forums, but she cannot access adults chat, but can access Kids chat and not Teens, or will this hack lock out everything?

So can I set mulitple ages up;

Adults 18
Teens 13
Kids 12 and under

and if I lock it will it lock everything?

Yes/No, depends on the choices you make.

What about a global age lock? No registrations under XX? Better yet let them register then lock them.

What program do I use to edit an xml file?

Notepad worked.

ok, got it working. Great hack.

08-29-2006 06:45 PM

OK, I seem to be the only one having this problem, so I must be blind - but I'm not seeing where to set this up the way I want it after it is installed.....

JenniferK

08-29-2006 10:43 PM

OK, nevermind, I found it (by going into the forum edit) - but I have a new question:

I have a forum for teens and have it set so that users should be younger than 20. When I try to test it, if not logged in the forum shows and gives the appropriate message when the forum is clicked. But when I log in as my test user, the forum does not display at all. Further, when I log in as my teen test user (which should have access) the forum still does not display. Can anyone tell me what I might be missing?

I've got a little question.

I installed this hack, but I have people who have posted in previous threads in the locked forum who are able to maintain their posting. They can't post in anything else, but can post in this thread that they've been posting in for a while.

Any way to fix that?

murdo

09-07-2006 11:13 AM

I have the same question as someone else, how do you determine wether the lock should be for older or younger? default value is 0 ...

Daky	09-28-2006 10:52 PM

Heya
I just installed this hack on my vbulletin 3.6.1 it works, but i have a problem.

What actually happens is that registered users under age of 16 actually are able to access the page from "navbars" link "NEW POSTS", or even from a dirrect link., otherwise script works if underage users try to access directly from index page.

Any1 else having the same problem?

If someone knows how to fix this, please share with me.

Thank you

Hollanda

10-04-2006 06:23 PM

I've got the same problem, also can the people that have already posted still see their post's.

Idea of hack is nice, just if it was working properly :)
