Question For all!

maybe you should also consider restricting them according to seniority. Eg. only people who has registered at least 7 days ago and has 5 threads can get them etc.

Otherwise a new registerer can still post 5 garbage threads, gets the file and will not come back again..

Yeah, that's a good idea. How might I go about doing that? Also, can I have a certain usergroup not bound to these rules? I have a private group that I don't want this to affect. Thanks for all your help

PHP Code:

$user_thread_count=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT count(*) as tc FROM thread WHERE postuserid=$bbuserinfo[userid]");
if ((time()-$bbuserinfo[joindate])/(60*60*24)<=X) AND $bbuserinfo[usergroup]==2 AND $user_thread_count['tc']<Y)
{show_nopermission(); exit;} 


Replace X with min. day after register, Y with min. thread number..

cool. How do I get a certain usergroup to not have to follow that above rule?

[Logician]

the code above applies to members usergroup only..

[groovesalad]

Members? I dont think I have a usergroup called that. I created a Friends usergroup and for some reason they are affected.

[Logician]

check its usergroup id. Only the group with usergroup id 2 should be affected..

Hmmm, I'll try again
