tubedogg,

Thanks for taking the time. I've got half of it working...

First, this hack does work at the forum level. :laugh:

The problem is, the new thread and reply buttons are still showing at the thread level as depicted in the bottom of the previously attached image. :disappointed:

Not to be a pain but, I have followed your instructions to the letter, several times, and can't get it to work. Obviously, I am missing something! Could I impose on you to write new instructions specifically to what I am not getting? Exactly what needs to be replaced and where in order to hide the new thread and reply buttons in threads that I do not have permission to post/reply?

Perhaps as inphinity suggests, there are more steps to this?

Again, thanks!
