Most of what this hack did is built into 3.6. Thanks Andreas, it was very helpful. Clicks uninstall after upgrade.

Definitely DOES NOT work in 3.5.4

I have members who have included external URL's in their signatures and more than the single line of text.

If there are additional changes to be made, would someone please post a nice easy set of instructions to follow?

But not all that it did is built into 3.6... for example, preventing some custom BBcodes. The built-in sig limits don't let you do that:

Note that custom BB codes cannot be controlled by any permission; you can only disable their use in signatures by disabling all BB codes in signatures.

This hack, which still works for me in 3.6.4 BTW, allows me to designate specifically which custom BBcodes (like [spoiler] and [media]) are not allowed in sigs. The buttons still appear in the toolbar, but if a user attempts to submit a sig with one of the "forbidden" custom BBcodes, they get an error message telling them why the sig is not allowed.

So, it is still useful, at least for me, in 3.6.x.

Thanks again, Andreas!

I installed this thinking that it would do exactly what I wanted and it doesn't do it. Gutted. I am really in need for it. I need it so that I can control how many links can be placed in a signature per usergroup.

For example,

Usergroup 1: can have 1 live email address and 1 hyperlink
Usergroup 2: can have 1 live email address and 4 hyperlinks

Can this script be modified for that?

Also, what's the difference between the amount of lines that can be used in the sig and the one that is already used in the default vbulletin within the sig. They both do the same thing don't they?

w00t! I had this when I had 3.5.4 and I loved it, now that I upgraded to 3.6.7 PL1 I thought it wouldnt work so I uninstalled it ... I searched for the Mods they have on 3.6 and nothing could compare the the ones this had to offer, so I reinstalled it and guess what? This works on 3.6.7 PL1 perfectly! It just doest diplay the box that says "You may ____" or "You may not ____" but that isnt a big deal, because once they try to do somethig that isnt allowed they received the error saying " You cannot have _________" so its all good :up:

[Dannyloski]

^ Nevermind, I thought it weas working but for some reason, users who were following the rules and tried to Edit their signatures got errors ... So now I'm using 3.6.7's Signature Limiter Settings, and added this hack to for external images ... all I need now is a filesize limiter for external images ...

That's exactly what I need as well
