I am getting this error now:

Warning: strpos() [function.strpos]: Empty delimiter. in /global.php(349) : eval()'d code on line 178

The following errors occurred when this message was submitted:

1. This forum requires that you wait 30 seconds between posts. Please try again in 29 seconds.

Any help with this?

For all those asking how to exclude forums in addition to the permission restrictions inherent in the hack:

In the .xml file, or by editing the Plugin PHP Code (vBoptions/Plug-in Manager/Edit):

FIND:

AND forumid NOT IN (0$limitfids)

Directly below the above, add:

AND forumid NOT IN (x,x,x)

The x's are the forumid's to exclude.

It is possible to added an icon that will take you to the last post in the thread. Also, I'd like the name of the forum to show underneath the thread title.

Can anyone please help me with this.

Thanks!
