Reply request....

I got a hack request for anyone.

I been searching for a way to limit the ammount of replies to a thread. Example:

For only specified forum id such as 5 , 7 ,18 and 30

When a user is posting a thread there is an extra field called "Max replies".

They can fill it in and put a number between 1 - 50.

They post thier thread. And the first whatever users replied can reply but after the limit is reached it displays a message stating maximum replies have been reached for this thread.

An example of how this would work would be somthing like this.

I'm on my board and i just made a song for all my fans. I put the song as a hidden link in my post and ask that users reply. (Already have a hide hack installed) The first let's say 20 people who reply get to download my song. But after that all other users will get a message of "your too late!"

Anyone help me with this?

I found some old 2.x code on this site that might help....

Code:



if(in_array($threadinfo[forumid],array(13, 17, 19, 20, 26, 27, 33, 34, 44, 45, 51, 52, 58,  59 ))) { 

$posts=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT COUNT(*) AS replies FROM post LEFT JOIN thread USING (threadid) WHERE post.userid=$bbuserinfo[userid] AND thread.forumid IN (13, 17, 19, 20, 26, 27, 33, 34, 44, 45, 51, 52, 58,  59 ) AND post.dateline > ".(time()-3600)); 

if($posts[replies]>=10) show_nopermission(); 





}

Thanks alot!

so basically close a thread after X replies?

Try this (ported from the above code, untested, but theoretically it should work):

PHP Code:


		
			
if (in_array($threadinfo[forumid],array(13, 17, 19, 20, 26, 27, 33, 34, 44, 45, 51, 52, 58,  59 ))) { 

  $posts = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT COUNT(*) AS replies FROM post LEFT JOIN thread USING (threadid) WHERE post.userid=$bbuserinfo[userid] AND thread.forumid IN (13, 17, 19, 20, 26, 27, 33, 34, 44, 45, 51, 52, 58,  59 ) AND post.dateline > ".(time()-3600)); 

  if ($posts[replies]>=10) print_no_permission(); 

}

If the time doesn't matter you can also avoid the query:

PHP Code:


		
			
if (in_array($threadinfo[forumid],array(13, 17, 19, 20, 26, 27, 33, 34, 44, 45, 51, 52, 58,  59 )) and $threadinfo['replycount'] > 10) { 

  print_no_permission();

}

  print_no_permission();

}

This will stop the posts at 10 but for some reason it does 10 posts per person....

Erm ... yep.

If you want x posts/user you will need the query.

But from you first post I thought you wanted a general x posts limit, therefore I included the 2nd snippet.

Not to mention the code above is set for a certain time limit....

i don't see why users themselves would have the control on how many replies they want for any thread... admin option is already possible with this hack:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=60059

this is per-forum based so you can set each forum to have a limit of replies per thread... this is basically what you search for i think...

Ok let me try that.....Last question is how hard is it to add the box for the newthread.php. To let the users specify how many replies there are allowed :)

that just may work thanks alot....
