-NB-

• This module can't be redistributed elsewere than here without my agreement. Pictures includes are royality free icons ; there are not mine.
• Because i'm not a coder, if someone can improve the code, it will be a pleasure.
• Because the staff of another french forum than vbulletin-fr has criticized my work and try to copy it, i do not allow them to use this module.

Running 3.6 here.. hack doesnt work. it makes all users unable to read replies regardless of their permission.

[spuny]

hello cclaerhout, hack doesnt work appropriately, it indifferently applies the restriction to all the groups
