Hack for [IMG] tag in posts so that guests must register to view imbedded images
Hi all,
I have a hack that I'd like to see, and I'm hoping that it actually wouldn't been to difficult to implement. I'm looking for a hack that would allow an Admin the ability to "flip a switch" and make it so that any posts which include imbedded images (using the [IMG] tag) would be disabled for guests. Ideally, this would be a forum permission that could apply to certain forums only, at the Admin's choice.
Instead of guests seeing the images within a post (as you normally would) they could see either:
1. A Replacement graphic that says something along the lines of "In order to view this image, you need to register."
2. Or any custom text (via a template) that would say the same thing: ""In order to view this image, you need to register. Click here to register." etc.
This could be a way to save bandwidth and bump up the amount of registered users. Seems like it would be nice hack.
Is there already a similar hack out there, or does someone want to tackle this one?
