Restrict a Thread depending on users' posts
 
I'd like to be able to restrict a Thread from being seen/posted in/etc based on how many posts I user has done. For example under my main forum thread I'll have a thread title '100K' -- I'd only like those users that have 100k posts or more to even see that. How can I do this? Thanks in advance.

Hello. I was pretty bored tonight/this morning so I thought I'd play around with this idea. Here's what I did so far:

Step 1 - Made `req_posts` field (INT, default=0) in THREAD table. (database)

### FOLLOWING DONE IN FORUMDISPLAY.PHP ###

Step 2 - Added req_posts into the thread query
PHP Code:
$threads = $DB_site->query("SELECT [...], req_posts, [...] 
------
Step 3 - Find:
PHP Code:
while ($thread = $DB_site->fetch_array($threads))    
{ // AND $counter++<$perpage) 
Add AFTER
PHP Code:
$bbuserinfo['posts']+=1; // min post count requirment minimum | line 1
if($bbuserinfo['posts']>=$thread['req_posts']){    // min post count requirment minimum | line 2 
-------
Step 4 - Find:
PHP Code:
eval('$threadbit .= "' . fetch_template('threadbit') . '";');
} 
Add AFTER
PHP Code:
} // min post count requirment minimum | line 3 | last line 
------
------
That should prevent them from showing up in the forum display... which is a start, eh? If you're wondering about the +1 to the bbuserinfo[posts], it seems to error out my way for GUESTS and users not logged in, not that adding one to that is a HUGE deal; it's just one extra line of code and doesn't actually add to the post count. Maybe someone knows a better way?

So I'm guessing that somewhere in the AdminCP you'll set up the req_posts?

Will this still display the thread in the list though??

Oooooh, you want users to SEE the thread but not be able to access it? Well, if that's the case, you can disregard anything after step 1. :P

It could be configurable in the admin panel if you added some code there to do it with.

More code is needed for when they actually visit the thread, I just didn't do that part. (yet?)
