MarkFL is a genuine 'good person'. Two custom MODs created for me this week. This one addresses a problem we are having on our forum where the Link feature of the Basic and Enhanced Editor; we have the Enhanced (WYSIWYG) Editor Toolbar as the default registration option; was being used by a persistent spammer to create a spam hyperlink in their first posts. This MOD let's us remove that button from the editor for Registered Users (usergroupid 2). We have a Promotion enabled on that usergroup, so when users get promoted into the next level usergroup, the full featured editor toolbar becomes available.

Very nice, works in vb4.2.0 & vb4.2.3

Some suggestion Mark.
what about, an option to put and "how many posts" user must have be able to see those bbcodes selected in for Affected Usergroups? (2 options with same result)


P.S. Is there a way to take control of customs bbcodes to?

As mentioned, you can use the promotion feature for that.

This product is for the default BBCodes only...if you don't want buttons on the toolbar for your custom BBCodes, then don't include a button image.

I want them, but not for all usergroups.
