This hack allows a guest to view 5 threads within the forums. After the 5th
thread, the hack will bring up the error_nopermission_loggedout template
to force them to register with the board.

This hack was requested by frozt and jjj0923.

Templates affected: 0
Files affected: showthread.php and admin/sessions.php
Tables affected: session

How to install this hack:

You need to alter the session table using the following command:

alter table session add visitcount smallint(5) unsigned DEFAULT 0;

The rest of the instructions are in the attached file.

Your comments will be greatly appreciated.

You will be able 5 threads every 15 minutes, or whatever the admin set the cookie timeout for.

Wouldn't it be better to go to a template that says: "You cannot view any more than 5 threads"?

Yes it would. But I have a few different template sets, and blame this on my laziness, but I used what was already available.

I thought this was a wonderful idea, and installed it. Then I remembered the googlebot and uninstalled it. I think I need to come back some time when I have a few brain cells working and see if I can't code it so that google and other bots that I like can stay and crawl.

Is there a way to change the value from say 5 to 10 or 15?

Look for all instances of the following code. There are 2 of them:

Code:
if($session[visitcount] > 5)
And replace the number 5 with any number you want.
