Future Hackers of America

open postings.php and find:

Code:

  if ($threadinfo[open]==1)
  {
    $DB_site->query("UPDATE thread SET open=0 WHERE threadid=$threadid");
    $action="closing";
  }

This is where you want to start your hack. You will need to open newreply.php, see what the code does when a user posts a reply. Duplicate the required elements in postings.php inside the code above. You want to set $message to something like "Thread Closed". You already have the $username of the mod so you don't need to figure it out. You want to insert a post stating the thread is closed, which will be from the Mod right before the thread is really closed. It is really simple to do but I will leave it up to you guys to do it.

[sidenote]

Is there a way to call newreply.php from inside postings.php so that one wouldn't actually have to anything other than insert the call right before the thread close?

Code:

newreply.php?action=postreply&message=Closed%20Thread

The idea is to simulate what is sent when a user clicks on the "Post" button when entering a message. Possible? I don't know
