Mini Mods - Guest can't see links.

OK, lately i made a little template modification that make guests register before they can see any link on the website.

Here is what you need to do to active it and use it in your Forum.



Go to AdminCp>Plugin & Products > Add New Plugin

then do this:

Hook Location : postbit_display_complete
Name : what ever you want
Execution Order : 5
Plugin PHP Code :
if ((!$this->registry->userinfo[userid]) OR (is_member_of($this->registry->userinfo, 1, 3)))
{
$this->post['message'] = preg_replace("!<a[^>]*(http|www)(.*)</a>!siU", $vbphrase[nolink], $this->post['message']);  
}
Plugin is Active : Yes

After you complete all the fields just press on SAVE button and you are done.

Insteand of 1,3 you can change the numbers to a diffrent groups you want.
but 1 and 3 is the Default groups that not allowed to see links in posts.

Worked fine to me and should work fine for you.
Have Fun.

Well, vb.org is probably uses another kind of a hide hack that only members with license like a special user group can see al the hidden content.

I can't access to you forum, I'M getting an error "PAGE NOT FOUND"

[MylesM]

Doesn't work with C-Logic SEO? When ever I go to a post it says "Page not found" :S

[FreeResellers]

if ((!$this->registry->userinfo[userid]) OR (is_member_of($this->registry->userinfo, 1, 3)))
{
$this->post['message'] = preg_replace("!<a[^>]*(http|www)(.*)</a>!siU", $vbphrase[registerlink] , $this->post['message']);  
}

That did work for me with 3.8.6. Patch Level 1.
But I would still like to see that there is a link... I mean, now people just don't see anything.
Not even a messege that they have to register to see the links.

Is there a way to use this code in subforum xy only?

[datoneer]

My vbulletin version:3.8.3
my code:
if ((!$this->registry->userinfo[userid]) OR (is_member_of($this->registry->userinfo, 1, 3)))
{
$this->post['message'] = preg_replace("!<a[^>]*(http|www)(.*)</a>!siU",
<b><font color="white">To view the link you have to <a href="login.php">Login</a> or <a href="register.php">Register</a></b></font>, $this->post['message']);
}

And i get this error when i open post as guest:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '<' in /home/datoneer/public_html/includes/class_postbit.php(294) : eval()'d code on line 90

Help please??

When you say the latest vbulletin, do you mean the latest vb 3.8, or the real latest 4.x?

If it's 4.x try changing this line from:

$this->post['message'] = preg_replace("!<a[^>]*(http|www)(.*)</a>!siU", $vbphrase[nolink], $this->post['message']);

to:

$post['message'] = preg_replace("~<a[^>]*(http|www)(.*)</a>~siU", $vbphrase[nolink], $post['message']);

[webmastersitesi]

how can i hide links only at SHOWTHREAD_SHOWPOST area?
