The query in the global_start hook did not have the TABLE_PREFIX included in the query making the modification fail on my board. With the change as indicated above the modification now works. For Ver 3.5.X


Thank you very much. I NEEDED this!

What program do I use to edit an xml file?

Notepad worked.

OK, I seem to be the only one having this problem, so I must be blind - but I'm not seeing where to set this up the way I want it after it is installed.....

[JenniferK]

OK, nevermind, I found it (by going into the forum edit) - but I have a new question:

I have a forum for teens and have it set so that users should be younger than 20. When I try to test it, if not logged in the forum shows and gives the appropriate message when the forum is clicked. But when I log in as my test user, the forum does not display at all. Further, when I log in as my teen test user (which should have access) the forum still does not display. Can anyone tell me what I might be missing?

I've got a little question.

I installed this hack, but I have people who have posted in previous threads in the locked forum who are able to maintain their posting. They can't post in anything else, but can post in this thread that they've been posting in for a while.

Any way to fix that?

I have the same question as someone else, how do you determine wether the lock should be for older or younger? default value is 0 ...

Heya
I just installed this hack on my vbulletin 3.6.1 it works, but i have a problem.

What actually happens is that registered users under age of 16 actually are able to access the page from "navbars" link "NEW POSTS", or even from a dirrect link., otherwise script works if underage users try to access directly from index page.

Any1 else having the same problem?

If someone knows how to fix this, please share with me.

Thank you

I've got the same problem, also can the people that have already posted still see their post's.
