Just as the title says - if a user has fewer than 15 posts, he will be unable to post a link or an image within a message.

This mod was originally done by Erwin for VB 2.x, and is ported with his kind permission.

It is a product. To install, simply import the xml.

(please note Andreas's fixes below if you have problems with scripts that post automatically)

Just installed this baby. Let's hope it works!

I'd love for new users to be able to post images but couldn't seem to figure out how to disable that part. I'm mostly just worried about URL's.

Speaking of which, if I wanted to block .com's and .net's, would I just add this into the code?

Code:

or stristr($pagetext,'.com') or stristr($pagetext,'.net') or stristr($pagetext,'www.') or stristr($pagetext,'http://')))

Thanks!

Disabled (not uninstalled, yet). It was causing the RSS Poster Robot to silently fail and also cause Reported Posts to be shunted to email instead of properly going to the Reported Posts forum. I see there is a manual fix for these issues which I'll be adding at some point.

Thanks! I will try this.

can anyone confirm if it works with 4.0 ? this has been very helpful...anti-spammer wise.

AndrewRich · #**226** 02-01-2010, 11:25 PM

I (finally) applied Andreas' fix and the mod now works without issue. The two problems we had were with reported posts and RSS auto-posts, and I tested both of those scenarios after installing the fixed version.

I also changed the error message from "You are only allowed to post URLs to other sites after you have made 15 posts or more." to "You may not post URLs or inline images, or report other users' posts, until you have made at least 15 posts."

INSTALLED on mousepad.mouseplanet.com.

Here is the updated (fixed) version including the revised error message. This will save time in downloading the original and patching it.

hello,
i'm in v3.8.4
It seems this product is not compatible with "reported posts are creating new threads" functionnality :
no threads are auto-creating anymore when activating this module.
Does anyone else have this problem ?
thanks !

ndebarnot · #**228** 03-16-2010, 09:07 AM

The AndrewRich's solution works great.
thanks !

mikeinjersey · #**229** 05-07-2010, 10:59 PM

believe it or not...it still works in 4.0.3. (the fundamentals atleast)

If there's anything we should know...plz let us know.

also, any word if this will be updated soon ?

sGroupInt · #**230** 09-17-2010, 03:00 PM

Installed and working great.
Just wondering, does this modify past posts from users with less than 15? Deleting their images or links?

Or does it just restrict future posts?

Thanks.

EDIT: Ah, never mind. I found a user with 1 post with a pict.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
