Need xx posts to make an new thread · **Released**: 07-22-2002

Thanks to Lesane (my hack is based on his minimum number of days to make new thread hack)
And thanks to Xenon for beta testing and bugfixing

Screenie in next post

Info:
This hack will add an extra field when you create or edit an forum wich alows you to set an minimum number of posts before users can make an new thread. If users don't have enough posts they will see an output stating the minimum number of posts needed.

Edit info:
5 edits in 2 files
1 SQL query
1 new template

Hope you'll enjoy this hack!

If you installed it please click "INSTALL", thank you

[edit]
confirmed working on ALL 2.2.x version of vbulletin.

Important if you have installed Lesane's store hack 2.0 (only checked it on that one)
My script asks you to update admin/forum.php. Lesane's also did that. So be sure you do those steps very carefully!. If you update the db entries, you will find the code that I tell you to find not working. Just look at the difference and ADD the difference between done and undone (in my txt).

What about min. posts/min. days? Basically a user needs 30 days or 30 posts before he/she can post in a specific forum? This would be great for classified sections. Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Hey,
I have this installed but its causing a problem with one of my forums (one that I know of anyway)

One of my members is complaining that he cant post in one of the forums but everyone else can, its set to 0 posts required for this specific forum but he is saying that he still cant post.

No-one else has had a problem posting though

Any ideas?

Thanks a lot,
John
