What this does
This will hide information from a user untill that user replys to your thread. If user has not replied to your thread, he/she will see a message to do so, if user is guest they will see nothing. If user has posted a reply, then they will see the lockdown information posted.

I figured i would go ahead and release it since its okay to release now. :squareeyed:

Good hack but fxp boards died long ago i think only these would have use for the hack.

Anyway thanks for coding it to 3.0l7 livewire im sure sum ppl will find this usefull :D

i most definitely would have a use of it.

Just a quick observation - I haven't installed it so I may be wrong- but wouldn't they be able to view it via the archive without having to post ?

No, the archive contains no information about whats hidden.

No they didn't :rolleyes:

I am glad he coded it...but fxp boards would not be allowed to use vBulletin...

but thanks for the hack..I will use it for my needs :)

Wasn't this released after the ban was lifted? Or is this just a 3.0.7 update?

Not to my knowledge. At least not here on vb.org.

this hack isnt allowed on vb.org chief.

been there done that ;p)

Yes it is, the rules were lifted awhile ago.

Sorry chief but yes it is... Heres the thread

Thanks, just curious, how can I make this hack hide the normal forum attachments? (non picture items)

/me installed.

Thanks Ill find a place for it.

Hello all I installed it, but I think I screwed something up...... but I dont know where.....
When I Click New Thread In Additional Options
instead of the lockdown options like in the screen shots I get this:

"//LockDownHack //LockDownHack"
No options to click and instert things......:( just this text.....)

I think I did mess up something... Can someone please try and help me figure out where I went wrong.....
The install process went all ok I have checked my file and templates edits....

You will have to redo your template edits. Its always smart to copy your template to a text file before installing a template change.

I have re-checked my templates edits I added a //Lockdown before and after to find the hack I now have removed it but not even the lockdown bit dissapeared..... I can see it ok in the forumcp permissions have enabled it....
But when I do new thread I dont see the option... to insert lockdown...
Thanks for the help

Have you chosen which forum is lockdown? https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachmen...chmentid=26493

I have marked the forum as Lockdown active but lockdown option does not appear when I click new tread inside the forum.....
I only see the "normal" options.... not the lockdown part

When I got to a "lockedown" forum I see:
.:: LockDown v ::.
megaboz has included a secure ftp. Please reply to view the details.

even though I have not included anything since I dont see the lockdon boxes....
And if I go to the AdminCp and I remove the "lockedown" part to a forum I still see after:

.:: LockDown v ::.
FireStarter has included a secure ftp. Please reply to view the details.

I really dont know what I did wrong...

This would be good but only hide text no [img] code or anything other vb code.

why am i not seeing the lockdown options in my new thread tab, i dont see any options but when i post above it says user has included secure ftp, please reply to see it, but they dont evn have to reply either, seems similar to the issue someone just posted above

same error here, and also when i activate lockdown for one forum (same with the first screenshots) i have this error in my vbulletin admincp:

Database error in vBulletin 3.0.7:

lucino, you did not run the SQL query as instructed

2 questions:

1. Does this support BBcode?
2. Anyone have this mod and "prevent double posting" install and have no problems?

it would be great to have this for vb350. hey you programmer guys, can you modify it so it works with vb350?

would really appreciate having something like this in my forum.

Can some1 please tell, does this work fine on vb 3.0.6 too?

`

First thanks for your reply! Okey I did it .... but I got this error :

#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'lockdowninstall.php' at line 1

I also activate lockdown in one forum and I got this display message at my vBulletin Admincp:

Invalid Title Specified


I still want to have this hack and I dont want to give up... that is why I am here again asking for your help to resolve this error. Thanks in advance!

What was the exact SQL you tried to run when you got that error?

================================================== ==

I run this lockdowninstall.php as I?ve got this error before :

Database error in vBulletin 3.0.7:

And this is what LiveWire said :

So... People would just spam your board then to see the info? What's the point?

How come I can only see blank boxes after I post and in the add new thread page their are no options to add hidden information.

Yeah, Dark has a point. I've seen hacks similar to this on many other boards, the majority of the time most members won't take the time to write a meaningful post. They just want to see the damn information that you've so annoyingly hidden from them... so they'll just post something quick, meaningless, and would more than likely be considered spam.

One of the many reasons why i don't use this hack myself...

Oh...

Who the hell downloads from ftps any more? Make something for bittorrent and you have yourself a good hack. :P

nice one but how can i use it just to hide the attchments??

i did exactly as instructed
but the hide window doesn't show up on the Additional Options when i creat a new thread

got any idea ?
thanks
btw: i already set it is a lock down forum

edit: nvm, i think i am using Dark Visor [hide] Hack Resurrection v1.14 which conflict with this one

can u make this intergrated with the Post Thank You mod

or make it run on vb 3.5

newsflash for yeah - a hell of alot of people do - people who know what they are doing and want things alot faster then on some slow P2P program with inconsitance speeds and resources.
