Enable Polls, Quick Reply, Avatars, Sigs Per Forum for vB 4
Version 1.0.1
(By Boofo)
What does this product do?
This product gives you the options to enable or disable polls, quick reply, avatars and signatures on a per forum basis without using the default forumpermissions.
NOTE: I know some of these have been done separately, but I wanted to have these options available all in one mod instead of scattered about in multiple plugins or products. I have been running this on my site for a while now with no problems.
Version Information:
Version 1.0.0 --Initial release for vBulletin 4.0.0
Version 1.0.1 --Fixed issue with Avatars and Signatures not showing up in PMs if they were disabled for any forums.

I found that the avatars setting for this mod overrides the user's own avatar view setting in settings->general settings. ie. it turned avatars on, even when the user has chosen not to show them. That's not a bug perhaps, but just the way it works.
Since I didn't need the avatar part of this mod I hacked my way around it by commenting out the avatar conditions in the plugin "Display Avatars & Sigs (postbit)"
