limited forum access by post counts

is there a way to make it so only a cerent forum needs that number, like forumid 3??

ops missed that part sorry! Sure it is possible, otherwise it would be meaningless to apply it to all boards:

Just use this line:

if ($bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==X AND $bbuserinfo[posts]<Y AND $foruminfo[forumid]==3)

instead of:

if ($bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==X AND $bbuserinfo[posts]<Y)

If you want it template driven:

Replace

show_nopermission();exit;

With

eval("standarderror (\"".gettemplate "error_minpostnumforthreads")."\");");
exit;

Yes it works great
thanks
only you forgot 1 ( i think

eval("standarderror(\"".gettemplate ("error_minpostnumforthreads")."\");");

Make sure you entered the forumid and usergroup id correctly.

If you are sure about it, send the code you inserted here (starting a few lines before it and ending a few lines after it.) and let's check it out..

I'm on 2.2.9 and it's not working for me either:

Here's my code:

$postpoll=iif(trim($postpoll)=="yes",1,0);

$visible=iif($foruminfo[moderatenew],0,1);

if ($bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==2 AND $bbuserinfo[posts]<50 AND $foruminfo[forumid]==107)
{
show_nopermission();exit;
}

// auto bypass queueing for admins/mods
if (ismoderator($foruminfo[forumid])) {
$visible=1;
}

ok put the code before

// draw nav bar

in newthread.php in v.2.29. I guess this should fix it. Also please notice that this code only stops new threads not replies..

Thanks L!

I'm hoping it solves my problem but I guess I'll hunt around for a similar code that prevents new posts too just in case. Thanks again!!
