This is a great mod, just one question.

I am holding a contest that is valid from a certain date. I know according to the FAQ, how to set a minimal post requirement to signup.

Is there anyway to count if the users have had at least X posts starting on a certain date?

For example, contest starts on 2/23/2009 and ends on 2/26/2009. Even if a user has 100 overall, he must still make 5 NEW posts between 2/23 and 2/26 in order to qualify to register.

No sorry. Information about when the posts were created is not stored, by vbulletin

[Budget101]

How do I input a hidden field to automatically log the users IP address regardless of their Usergroup?

[Gizmo999]

How would I get it to include the forum users name and email address automatically in the output? I'd restrict use to members only.

it would need to save to database and send an email.

When can we expect the attachments option? This is the only thing keeping me from using this mod
