I don't want my current users to have to accept the rules again. But the option "Reset Acceptance Status For All Members" doesn't make it clear if it's going to accomplish that if I press the button.

I mean, is there an option to set all current users as having accepted Rules?

[Valter]

This is automatically done on upgrade. (General Rules).

"Reset Acceptance Status For All Members" will force them all to re-accept.

That clears up what I suspected - "reset" in this case means to clear their prior acceptance.

But I'm sorry I don't understand about upgrading. I uninstalled all my add-ons when upgrading to 4.0.1, so I didn't actually 'upgrade' this mod, I installed it new. So they're all going to have to re-accept? Not a big deal, just wondering.

installed and nominated - i love this hack ! its the most usefull !

Question to coder:

Is there a possibility to add to the "Before Accepting Rules User Can Not" functions that the user can not see the CMS or blogs ?! this will be very userfull for me too !

ONE BUG !
HTML Code is not possible in the "Show 'More Rules' drop-down menu on Rules page" function - can you fix this ?! or is this not possible ?!

or can i display two rule sets together ?
