Restrict Profile Viewing Until XX Posts

[N-0p3rz]

How can I restrict the viewing of profiles until a certain amount of posts...

I want to protect contact information..

I've already got a fix that'll let me hide contact info from guests..

I want to take it further..

I've searched the forums over and over with different search parameters.. I just can't find anything..

Any help :-(?

Still nothing?

what fix are you talking about... vB can do all these things you're asking for by default forum permissions/promotions via usergroups. there are no needs for hacks or other modifications.

That's quite tedious..

[SCRIPT3R]

wow, a whole 2 minutes of your time is tedious?!?! if one was in a race, everything could probably be set up in less than thirty seconds. rather then load your forum full of unnecessary hacks, why not just learn how to use vB?

PHP Code:

$minPosts = 25;
if ($vbulletin->userinfo['posts'] < $minPosts)
{
    print_no_permission();
    // or this:
    // standard_error("You need $minPosts posts to view user profiles.");
}

^Great thanks.. Just what I was looking for.. Appreciate it

Now will this not allow people to contact moderators or the admin? And does this work with 3.6.8?

Based on the code above, it will not allow people to view any profile unless they have 25 or more posts...

It should still work on 3.6.8...
