can you make this hack require a admin approval before it is completed?

also, instead of allowing members to select where the forum goes, there should be a default location category where the user forums will be created...

but the admin approval should be first on the list...some1 makes a forum, then it has to be ok'd before it is actually placed on the forum and opened.

include a max forum section limit?

i guess with a bit of extra coding this could be used to rent out forums, or provide free forums , like one of those free forum services..

but i dunno if thats a vilation of vbs terms of use or not. youd need to check it out i guess

i am currently working on the store integration

where they buy one it its adds 1 to the user table and if they buy 2 theyere allowed to make 2 then they have to buy new ones

Nice hack, but I would re-think the idea of letting users allow HTML in the forum description, otherwise unrealiable members may use malacious tags in the description.

Good work though

ok d00d will remove it off next release

but note you can trick your members by makeing Yes & No Mean yes

lol

Ok... one thing you've put in here is allowing users to create private forums? What is the point of that?

This hack is open to a lot of dangers. Firstly the more forums you have the more abuse and the longer its going to take pages to load. Imagine you have about 100 active users and they all decided to make a forum. I would have thought that would have killed the bandwidth...

This is open to much abuse in my opinion. And a must for the next version has to be the moderation of applications... Even restricting the ability to apply for a forum by usergroup too...

well d00d i have made it a store addon so it will cost member about 15000 SP's to buy a forum so not alot of people can afford that

anyway i am off to work will finish when i return l8r

As good as this hack is, everyone should really take precaution, think of consequences, I mean in effect you're giving members powers that they definitely shouldn't have, the possibilty to create forums by themselves, that's one main thing that only admins can do...

Sounds great. Have to test it out.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
