A big thank you goes out to natro for allowing me not only to translate the plug-in, but also to publish/release this with

Enjoy this fine update.


Guests always seen hidden links, if this addon activated. You can't exclude guests and include group ids. Non-excluded Forums are depend by the made options in vbulletins-options.


You'll find different versions in the archive. "product-Hide_Links_From_Guest_v132_36x_english.xml" is the newest one.
36x in filename means, product for vBulletin 3.6.x only, not downward-compatibly
354 in filename means, product for vBulletin 3.5.4.

This Addon works fine with the "Post Replacement" addon from Larrysw.
You need only to change the "Execution Order" from 5 to 4 in "Plugin Manager" -> Guests will not see links in posts (Hook: postbit_display_complete)

For german members of vBulletin, please click here for install. Thx


Have Fun

I'm running a 3.6.5 VB and it only works with some links :s

and when you try to uninstall it, it won't uninstall. All you can do is disable it.

[newhen]

doesnt work

[texasf1racer]

So where is a hide hack which will only allow users to see links after so many posts?

[PapaSmurf]

Nice hack, can't wait for the updates to come through.

Installed.

[karlm]

Works ok for me on 3.6.5. I'd like to see this adapted for use with vbadvanced (links all show on vba pages), but that aside - it's an awsome hack!

[ginny989]

I just installed this on 3.6.5 and it worked where the guests couldnt see it but my registered members couldnt see the link either....what did I do wrong?
TIA!

[Fungsten]

The users - including me - couldn't see any links.

So where is a hide hack which will only allow users to see links after so many posts?

I thought it was in this MOD but I can't find it either!!

I'm running a 3.6.7 PL1VB and it only works with some links

[karlm]

For those who can't see the links - you need to goto your usergroup settings and amend it for admins/mods/registered... to show links.

Hello!

How can I exclude all the links from the site keep4u.ru? For example the next link:

PHP Code:

[url=http://keep4u.ru/full/070612/593280d90a857d908a/jpg][img]http://keep4u.ru/imgs/s/070612/593280d90a857d908a.jpg[/img][/url] 


I tried to write here: localhost|gif|jpg|keep4u.ru , but it not working and continues to hide from guests. I need to show all the images from keep4u.ru site. Please suggest something. Thank you.
