Administrative and Maintenance Tools - Extra Signature Settings (Deafult signature + 3 other extra options)

This mod will expand further the Signature Settings with 4 extra options.

1) It will allow you to add a minimum number of posts for your users to create signatures. You can aslo choose which usergroups and/or individual users can bypass this limit.

2) It will allow you to prevent/ban individual users from using signatures at your forum.

3) It will allow you to exlude signatures from being shown in certain forums of your choosing. That is for normal users because the staff signatures will still be shown if you want.

4) It will allow you to set up a default signature which will be displayed in all the posts for all those members that don''t have a signature of their own, from the moment that it is set and onwards. The past posts won''t be affected by it. When they will create a signature of their own it will overwride the default signature from that moment and onwards.

All the settings can be enabled and disabled separately. For more info, please have a look at the attached screenshots below.

Installation:

To install the mod, upload the includes folder to your forum root folder and then import the expanded_sigs.xml file inside the mod package to Plugins&Products in the acp of your forum. Then go to the mod setting option: Extra Signature Options. It can be found on the left side of the Admin Panel, right above the RSS Feeds.

I think I've found a bug. The plugin "Prevent signatures from being displayed in certain forums." removes the signature for those user groups that you have specified on the "Signature Free Forums" page. However, the text on this page says:

Enter here the ID of the User Groups whose signatures you want to show at the Signature Free Forums. To choose more than 1 User Group, seperate their IDs with commas. By default it is set to show Admins signatures.

So the text says "enter those user groups for which you want the signature to be always displayed", but the plugin does the exact opposite and removes the signature for those user groups (and only for those!).
