He's just asking for a hack that sets a forum unaccessible unless you have a certain amount of posts.
I thought this was a standard vB feature.
All you need to do is edit newreply.php and newthread.php and find the following:
PHP Code:
verify_forum_password($foruminfo['forumid'], $foruminfo['password']);
Then below it place a switch statement checking the users post count:
PHP Code:
switch ($foruminfo['forumid'])
{
case 1: //this means if the forumid is 1
if ($bbuserinfo['posts'] < $certain_amount_of_posts)
{
print_no_permission();
}
}
Just change the $certain_amount_of_posts to a shorter variable containing the post count.
You can check more forums by just adding more cases to the switch.
