New Posting Features - Post Once Per Thread

Post Once Per Thread (popt)

Description:

Restricts users so they can only reply once to a thread.

A new section added to the vBulletin options provides the forum admin with the ability to specify a list of forum id's to be locked down - the usergroups id's to be locked - and the quantity of replies allowed. If a restricted user tries to reply more than the permitted quantity they will see the default vBulletin "no permission" screen, you may wish to alter the phrase for this error to include a section on posting more than the alloted limit.

This is a 3.6 port of an original hack here, credit where its due.

Installation

1. Download and install the attached product
2. Edit the "Post Once Per Thread" options in the AdminCP

This is broken, at least on my forum. I am only able to restrict one usergroup. Not multiple ones. If I add more than one (ie 2,3) the hack breaks and does not work for either usergroup. I am running 3.6.4. Luckily I only need it for one usergroup, but in the future I may need it for 2.

hi! tks for the hack.
i wanna ask, if the post limit its about the complete thread, or about every page of the thread. ´cause i nead often to limit the users from page and not from the complete thread.

tks for your time.!

does this work on 3.7.0? reserved if it does

I'm working on getting this working for 3.8 I put in a debugging code and found that this code is never true in 3.8

if (strpos("," . $vbulletin->userinfo['usergroupid'] . "," . $vbulletin->userinfo['membergroupids'] . ",", "," . $vbulletin->options['popt_groupid'] . "," ) !== false) {

So it doesn't work. Any response at all would be helpful, this is of extreme importance.
