Yes you can, you just need to learn how to use the bitwise thingier try looking at some of the functions files.

[EmreTheMatrix]

bitwise thingier is the options in forum table cuse if yes its just save it as numbers
like 86017 if yes then how i can understand that
its not easy as vb2
can u guide me please like for exsample i want to add countreplies or countreq
how i can do that ?

[EmreTheMatrix]

ok i have looked at the function convert_array_to_bits in the file
functions_misc.php

now its count it in some weird way

well i thought if i will add 1 more option its will read it

so in admin/forum.php

after
print_yes_no_row($vbphrase['count_posts_in_forum'], 'options[countposts]', $forum['countposts']);

i added

print_yes_no_row('Count Reqs Made in this Forum Towards User Req Counts', 'options[countreqs]', $forum['countreqs']);

in order to add counter for requsts.

but its didnt saved is value only showed me yes/no row
if i edited it to yes or no its stayied the same

so how i can make it work ?

please help me cuse im starting to be desprte :disappointed:
