Remove new thread button

[steve71]

I would like to remove the newthread.gif button in one forum but without closing the forum.

I use the hack "Easy forms" and want to force members to post thru it. Then the form is posted as a new thread in the forum of choice.

The reason I can't just close the forum is because I want to give members the option to reply.

Is it possible to combine these together:

<td class="smallfont"><if condition="$show['newthreadlink']"><a href="newthread.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newthread&amp;f=$foruminfo[forumid]" rel="nofollow"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/newthread.gif" alt="$vbphrase[post_new_thread]" border="0" /></a><else />&nbsp;</if></td>


with the condition:

<if condition="$forumid == 17">
<a href="http://www.website.ca/forum/misc.php?do=form&fid=16"><font size=3><b>Post a review</font></a> </if>


http://www.website.ca/forum/misc.php?do=form&fid=16 being the path to the form page.


Either change where newthread.gif links to in forum id:17 or remove the button and replace it with a link to the form page.

Either way is ok.
