Portions of the Install script written by: Kier Darby
vBulletin is created by Jelsoft Ltd. http://www.jelsoft.com

---- Installation.
Run ff_install.php. This will make the modifications to the database and create the new templates.

Open admin/forum.php and look for:
PHP Code:
  makeyesnocode("Count posts made in this forum towards user post counts?","countposts",1); 
After that add:
PHP Code:
  //WL 04-JUNE-2001 New Forum Features Hack
  
maketableheader("Search Engine Options (v1.2 by Wayne Luke)");
  
maketextareacode("Meta Tag Keywords: ","metakey");
  
maketextareacode("Meta Tag Description","metadesc");
  
makeinputcode("Meta Robot Tag","robotext");

  
maketableheader("Forum Control Options (v1.0 by Wayne Luke)");
  
makeyesnocode("Show in Active Topics?","showactive",1);
  
makeyesnocode("Censor Words in this Forum","censor",1);
  
makeinputcode("Minimum Posts to View","minviewposts");
  
makeinputcode("Minimum Posts to Start New Thread","minposts");
  
//WL End Modification 
Also in admin/forum.php Look for:
PHP Code:
  $DB_site->query("INSERT INTO forum
                      (forumid,styleid,title,description,active,displayorder,parentid,
                       parentlist,allowposting,cancontainthreads,daysprune,newpostemail,newthreademail,
                       moderatenew,allowhtml,allowbbcode,allowimages,allowsmilies,allowicons,
                       styleoverride,allowratings,countposts,moderateattach)
                   VALUES
                      (NULL,'
$styleset','".addslashes($title)."','".addslashes($description)."','$isactive','$displayorder','$parentid',
                       '','
$allowposting','$cancontainthreads','$daysprune','".addslashes($newpostemail)."','".addslashes($newthreademail)."',
                       '
$moderatenew','$aallowhtmlcode','$aallowbbcode','$aallowimgcode','$aallowsmilies','$aallowicons',
                       '
$styleoverride','$allowratings','$countposts','$moderateattach')"); 
Replace with:
PHP Code:
$DB_site->query("INSERT INTO forum
  (forumid,styleid,title,description,active,displayorder,parentid,
   parentlist,allowposting,cancontainthreads,daysprune,newpostemail,newthreademail,
   moderatenew,allowhtml,allowbbcode,allowimages,allowsmilies,allowicons,
   styleoverride,allowratings,countposts,moderateattach,metakey,metadesc,robotext,
   showactive,censor,minviewposts,minposts)
 values (NULL,'
$styleset','".addslashes($title)."','".addslashes($description)."',
         '
$isactive','$displayorder','$parentid','','$allowposting','$cancontainthreads',
         '
$daysprune','".addslashes($newpostemail)."','".addslashes($newthreademail)."',
         '
$moderatenew','$aallowhtmlcode','$aallowbbcode','$aallowimgcode','$aallowsmilies',
         '
$aallowicons','$styleoverride','$allowratings','$countposts','$moderateattach',
         '"
.addslashes($metakey)."','".addslashes($metadesc)."','".addslashes($robotext)."',
         '
$showactive','$censor','$minviewposts','$minposts')"); 
After that add:
PHP Code:
  //WL 04-JUNE-2001 New Forum Features Hack
  
maketableheader("Search Engine Options (v1.2 by Wayne Luke)");
  
maketextareacode("Meta Tag Keywords: ","metakey",$forum[metakey]);
  
maketextareacode("Meta Tag Description","metadesc",$forum[metadesc]);
  
makeinputcode("Meta Robot Tag","robotext",$forum[robotext]);


  
maketableheader("Forum Control Options (v1.0 by Wayne Luke)");
  
makeyesnocode("Show in Active Topics?","showactive",1,$forum[showactive]);
  
makeyesnocode("Censor Words in this Forum","censor",1,$forum[censor]);
  
makeinputcode("Minimum Posts to View","minviewposts",$forum[minviewposts]);
  
makeinputcode("Minimum Posts to Start New Thread","minposts",$forum[minposts]);
  
//WL End Modification

In newthread.php find:
PHP Code:
  $smilieson=iif($foruminfo[allowsmilies],$ontext,$offtext);

Finally add the following to your forumdisplay template:
<META NAME="keyword" content="$keyword">
<META NAME="description" content="$description">
<META name="robots" content="$robotext">


These same instructions are included in the readme.txt located in the zip file.

erm, do I understand you right? you have a "general chat" subforum and posts in there do not count to the users total number of posts?

Is that a new feature I don't know about (still using beta3 - maybe it has been implemented later)? or is it a hack of yours?

You can set a forum wherein the user's posts will not count to their total posts. It is in the Control Panel.

You need to put $foruminfo[minposts] and/or $foruminfo[minviewposts] in your error templates.

Alter the line that checks for posting permissions in newthread.php to something like this

if ($foruminfo[minposts] && ($foruminfo[minposts]>$bbuserinfo[posts]) and !(ismoderator($foruminfo[forumid],"",$bbuserinfo[userid]))) {
eval("standarderror(\"".gettemplate("error_forumno post")."\");");
exit;
}

I had posted before that this had to be changed and I thought I updated the files appropriately. I will double check them in the morning and if necessary re-upload.
