With this hack you will be able to set a minimum number of posts for your users in order to send Personal Messages.

After installing the hack, go to Settings-Options-Private Messaging Options. There you can enable and disable the hack. You can also enter the minimum number of posts for your users in order to send Personal Messages. By default it is set to 5 posts. You can also choose which User Groups and Individual users will be excluded from the post limit.

A new option added which will allow those users who are below the post count limit to send pm to contact a member of the staff.

The new mod can be downloaded from its thread at my forum for free. Which is the support thread for the mod as well.

Just ran various tests with 4.04pl1 and with minimum post count needed set to 1, I was able to select "Send PM" to any member. No blocking message appeared and it went straight to the vBulletin editor screen to permitting any registered member (Group 2) with a post count of 0 to freely send PM's.

What am I missing?

Regards,
Badger

No, as stated, it's permitting Registered Users from Usergroup 2 which is not in the excluded list.... Any idea why it's letting them send PM's?

I'm using 4.04pl1 ...

Thanks ..

Badger

Do you mean that users under the post count set by admin to be able to pm the staff only?

I went back and did some more testing ...

It simply doesn't seem to intercept a registered member (UserGroup 2) and present the screen advising them that they can't send PM's until they make a post.

Badger
