PLEASE REMEMBER TO BACKUP BEFORE YOU BEGIN!


If you like this hack, please be kind and click on "Install this Modification" Link.

can you make them agree to the rules before they can even enter the section of the forum?

No, they have got to click on the New Thread Button.

Basicly, it's Posting New Thread Agreement, not Viewing fourm Agreement.

Nice hack :)

Sweet, I like this one. :) I'll install this ASAP.

I will assume that once a member accepts the rules they will no longer see them. Correct?

Nice :) thanks for sharing ;)

That is correct :smoke:

Absolutely killer! I'll give this a whirl on one of my sites!

Thanks!
