It will only work if settings in your ACP are correct:
- It will only work on the forums for which the forumid is in the list of id's in the vBuletin Settings for this hack
- AND the user have a primary usergroup that is in the settings for this hack.

Marco van Herwaarden · #14 01-23-2005, 08:01 AM

Can you give me a screenprint of your settingspage.

bigcurt · #15 01-24-2005, 02:10 AM

Yep sure can. here ya go.

I have registered users, mods, admin all them to where those are thr groups it will limit...idk what the problem is

I really would like this to work.. would it have anythind to do with the fact I am still using 3.03?

Marco van Herwaarden · #16 01-24-2005, 03:50 AM

Sorry but i can't see the usergroups in the image you posted.

Forum 5 is the real forum where posting, or a category that holds the forums you want to limit?

PS Tried to get you on MSN a few times, but you didn't respond.

This one controls the number of new threads

...

How about also controlling the number of new replays on the old threads?

bigcurt · #19 03-06-2005, 02:57 AM

Marco van Herwaarden · #20 03-06-2005, 07:57 AM

Just so others will not think there is a problem with this hack: the problem of BigCurt is solved. He didn't make the file edit.
