k! I agree!

I have some suggestions, but I think they will never be implemented (board-smilies are not counted as images and so on).

Andreas, I have this installed, but the image size restrictions just don't work. I'm using 3.5.4 and my max dimensions are not working.. I had a user post a 1024px wide image where my max was 400px. o_O What did I do wrong?

EDIT nvm. o.o

Andreas has afaik a holiday trip.
Probably another user can help you.

it's the best.

I have a(nother) problem and a suggestion.

Suggestion: Make the font size limit work with vB font sizes. It took a lot of guesswork to figure out the point equivalent of size=1, 2, 3, etc.

Problem: I have the limit set to 16-point, but...users cannot, for some reason, use size=1. Any reason why? Its definitely not over the limit.

Superb hack. It does however remove the rel="nofollow" hack on signatures only. Any way to have this reapplied in this easily before i start manually hacking?

[dead7]

I think i've found one bug perhaps someone can try this on theirs.

If a user types in a signature and lets it word wrap, or uses return to make line breaks, the hack will work just fine for the restricted amount of lines allowed.. however.

I had one user do this

]center[line 1]/center[
]center[line 2]/center[
]center[line 3]/center[
]center[line 4]/center[
]center[line 5]/center[
]center[line 6]/center[

Now because each individual line is centered (i realize the tags above are wrong its just to show the example) it allows the signatures to go past their allowed # of lines limit.

If you were to center it all as one the hack still works fine the way the hack was intended to by restricting the signature by the number of lines allowed.
If anyone else can try this i'd appreciate it... otherwise everything about the hack works fine except for this individually centered text.

Thanks.

Nice one

Is it remove email address ?

[BJv1985]

Everything works find when it's 1 image but when a user tries to add a second image it counts the size limits for both images as 1?

Even a way to force it to only consider the primary group's permissions would be good.

EDIT: Nvm, I fixed it by setting the default values of those bitfields in the product xml to 1 instead of 0, then re-installing the product.

I think this answers my question I have been looking for in this thread.

As like the rest of VB, a setting of "0" means unlimited and not zero. Correct?
