Forbid Users from Posting Links or Images if They Have Fewer than 15 Posts

Just as the title says - if a user has fewer than 15 posts, he will be unable to post a link or an image within a message.

This mod was originally done by Erwin for VB 2.x, and is ported with his kind permission.

It is a product. To install, simply import the xml.

(please note Andreas's fixes below if you have problems with scripts that post automatically)

This Hack has a serious bug which causes issues with other Hacks that automatically create threads (and are using others users for this):
You check the posts for the viewing user, instead of checking the posts for the user that makes the post.

Corrected Plugins:
postdata_presave

PHP Code:

// get useriinfo for this post
$userid =& $this->fetch_field('userid');
$userinfo = fetch_userinfo($userid);
$pagetext =& $this->fetch_field('pagetext', 'post');

if (($userinfo['posts'] < 15) and (stristr($pagetext,'[url') or stristr($pagetext,'[URL') or stristr($pagetext,'www.') or stristr($pagetext,'http://'))) 
{
    $this->error('error_nourlallowed');
    $return_value = false;
}

PHP Code:

// get useriinfo for this post
$userid =& $this->fetch_field('postuserid');
$userinfo = fetch_userinfo($userid);
$pagetext =& $this->fetch_field('pagetext', 'post');
if (($userinfo['posts'] < 15) and (stristr($pagetext,'[url') or stristr($pagetext,'[URL') or stristr($pagetext,'www.') or stristr($pagetext,'http://'))) 
{
    $this->error('error_nourlallowed');
    $return_value = false;
}

This causes an error on my board for anyone replying to a thread:

Warning: Missing argument 1 for fetch_userinfo() in /includes/functions.php on line 998

sandman, the parameter for fetch_userinfo is $userid.

[Andreas]

I knew I would mess up something ^.^
Though, it was just the missing userid as amy already pointed to - edited the post.

I'm probably being completely stupid - but what do I edit to fix the bug?

probably he adjusted it for is own needs, i lowered it at our forum to 5.

Mod is great However, amykhar is there a way to disable it for certain forums. For example this would conflict with the Reported Posts mod since members with less then 15 posts would not be able to report posts.
I tried the following but it didnt work.

if (($vbulletin->userinfo[posts] < 15) and ($vbulletin->forum[forumid]!=X) and (stristr($pagetext,'[url') or stristr($pagetext,'[URL') or stristr($pagetext,'www.') or stristr($pagetext,'http://')))
{

Is there a way to let the users who has less than 15 posts be able to post Smiley faces? Right now if a user types in a message and uses a smiley faces it doesn't let them post. Frankly I don't mind the smiley faces...? Anyone know how to change this?

Thanks!!!
