Admin/Mods exempt from character limit....

does anyone know how to make admin/mods exempt from the character limit when starting new threads and replying to threads?

I need the team members to be able to post large posts but everyone else not be able to

thanks in advance for any help offered

Yes, that is fairly easy to do. Give me a few minutes and I will try to get something together for you.

In newreply.php and newthread.php find:

Code:

$message = stripsession($message);



  if 



(strlen($message)>$postmaxchars and $postmaxchars!=0) {

REPLACE it with:

Code:

$message = stripsession($message);



  if 



(strlen($message)>$postmaxchars and $postmaxchars!=0 and $bbuserinfo[usergroupid] != 6) {

Find (in newreply):

Code:

eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate("newreply")."\");");



}

ADD above:

Code:

if ($bbuserinfo['usergroupid']==6) {$postmaxchars=10000000;}

Find (in newthread):

Code:

eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate("newthread")."\");");



}

Add ABOVE:

Code:

($bbuserinfo['usergroupid']==6) {$postmaxchars=10000000;}

EDIT: Didn't see your reply, or I would have let you do it. :p And I hope that works....seems to be working for me.

There are a few more places to change it or you will get the java-script warning when posting the message. I put it all in the hack file.

That's strange. Whenever I post as an admin and click the "Character limit" link I get the max character limit as 1,000,000. When I login as a registered member, I get the limit as 40,000. I posted over 40,000 as an admin (like 500,000 characters) and it worked. No errors or anything. Tried the same for a regular member and it stopped me.
