Prevent Doubleposting

This is why i really want a Mini-Hack section here, please Chen

What this hack does:
When a User posts to a thread where he already has the lastpost, no new post will be added. The lastpost of him will be edited and the new text is put after his first message.
This would not be done, if he has an attachment in his new post or the old post is older than 1 hour (you can change this timespan yourself )

Known bugs: None

Hope someone can use it, i do

Believe this hack includes just 1!! codehack.

i have one question....heh....i hope this thread is like....still loooked at!!!!

anyway....

the attachment is the Double Post Prevention Hack before I installed

Anime-loo 's Post Redirect Hack.

I was wondering what i would change in the code so that it will show

"Double Posting are we?"

between each post, instead of right after the text like it's doin now....if needed, i'll attach another screenshot of how it looks now....

I hooooppppe someone can answer this *dances*

[Hobbes]

:bunny: well...i'm bored....so i'll show ya how it looks now...


the attachment actually shows

(1) how it was [in the quote]

(2) how it is now [after i installed Anime loo's Post Redirect hack.

heeelp??

hmm, i can't really see the sense for this, but all you have to change is this:

PHP Code:

addslashes($lastpost[pagetext] . "\n\n" . $message) 


the string \n\n produces two enters, but you can replace it with everything you want to be between the two posts.
if you left out the \n tags, it will lead to your problem.

if they're in, maybe you have to ask anime about his hack

*dances*....

to exclude forums:
change this:

PHP Code:

if($lastpost['userid'] != $bbuserinfo['userid'] OR (time() - $lastpost['dateline']) > 3600 OR ($attachmentid and !$foruminfo['moderateattach'])) { 


into this:

PHP Code:

if(in_array($threadinfo['forumid'], array(x,y,z)) or $lastpost['userid'] != $bbuserinfo['userid'] OR (time() - $lastpost['dateline']) > 3600 OR ($attachmentid and !$foruminfo['moderateattach'])) { 


and change x,y,z into the forumids you want to exclude [/B]

When I do this I get this error:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected ',' in /home/opie/public_html/forums/newreply.php on line 296

I'm running 2.2.7 if that matters.

[Xenon]

if you have made everything right, there couldn't be such a parse error.

you should check your php syntax on mistakes you have made

[Opie]

if($threadinfo['forumid'], array(10,11,13)) or $lastpost['userid'] != $bbuserinfo['userid'] OR (time() - $lastpost['dateline']) > 3600 OR ($attachmentid and !$foruminfo['moderateattach'])) {

That's what I put and those are valid forum ids, but still the error... weird.

[Xenon]

whats wierd?

you clearly forgot half of the codechanges......
why haven't you put the word in_array in your code as i stated?

[Opie]

Sorry I don't know too much about php, so instead of array put "in_array" ?

I didn't see where you said put "in_array".

[DigitalDesktops]

use this code instead, it seems VB took out in_array lol:

[sql]
if(in_array($threadinfo['forumid'], array(x,y,z)) or $lastpost['userid'] != $bbuserinfo['userid'] OR (time() - $lastpost['dateline']) > 3600 OR ($attachmentid and !$foruminfo['moderateattach'])) {
[/sql]
