Hide Post Buttons

Another small hack, this one requested by cessna140.

It will remove the New Thread and/or Post Reply buttons from showthread and forumdisplay if the user does not have permission to post a New Thread and/or Post a Reply.

Again, it's really quite simple. Download the attached file and follow the instructions.

Please no PMs, email, ICQ, or AIM about this hack. It will be ignored.

Is it confirmed that this hack works with 2.2.6?? I installed the hack and had the following problem: The reply button was gone even for users who have the permission to reply to other's posts.

in addition I use the quick reply box hack and would like to have the quick reply box vanish as well when a user has no permission to post.

hi i still have 2.2.5 and still test my board offline. I also have the same problem. If i am logged in as admin, i see both buttons!
if i log in as user, there is only the new thread button!???
I have the quick reply box installed as well.

What should i do?

i think there is something wrong with this code.

PHP Code:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - = = = = = = = S H O W T H R E A D . P H P = = = = = = = - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
__Find around line 468__
updateuserforum($thread['forumid']);

__Right after that add__
// ****** //
$showthreadbutton = 1;
if (!$getperms['canpostnew']) {
    $showthreadbutton = 0;
}

$showreplybutton = 1;
if (!$getperms['canreplyown'] or (!$getperms['canreplyothers'] and ($thread['postuserid']!=$bbuserinfo['userid'] or $bbuserinfo['userid'] == 0))) {
    $showreplybutton = 0;
}
if (!$thread['open'] == 0 and ($bbuserinfo['userid'] == 0 or $bbuserinfo['usergroupid'] != 6 or !ismoderator($thread['forumid']))) {
    $showreplybutton = 0;
}

if ($showthreadbutton == 1) {
    eval("\$threadbutton = \"".gettemplate("showthread_threadbutton")."\";");
} else {
    $threadbutton = " ";
}
if ($showreplybutton == 1) {
    eval("\$replybutton = \"".gettemplate("showthread_replybutton")."\";");
} else {
    $replybutton = " ";
}
// ****** // 


Thanks for any help!

ok thanks for the help!

But i found a solution for me. I just changed the code of firefly's quick reply box to this:
now it works!

PHP Code:

// ****** //

$showthreadbutton = 1;
if (!$getperms['canpostnew']) {
    $showthreadbutton = 0;
}

$showreplybutton = 1;
if (($bbuserinfo['userid']!=$thread['postuserid']) and (!$getperms['canviewothers'] or !$getperms['canreplyothers'])) {
    $showreplybutton = 0;
    } elseif (!$getperms['canview'] or (!$getperms['canreplyown'] and $bbuserinfo['userid']==$thread['postuserid'])) {
    $showreplybutton = 0;
} elseif (!$thread['open'] and !ismoderator($thread['forumid'],'canopenclose')) {
    $showreplybutton = 0;
} else {
$showreplybutton = 1;
}


if ($showthreadbutton == 1) {
    eval("\$threadbutton = \"".gettemplate("showthread_threadbutton")."\";");
} else {
    $threadbutton = " ";
}
if ($showreplybutton == 1) {
    eval("\$replybutton = \"".gettemplate("showthread_replybutton")."\";");
} else {
    $replybutton = " ";
}
// ****** //
