Very good mod. Sorry for not see all the post here!

I don't get it, it's working for others, but not for me. I installed it and set permissions per forum for each usergroup and they're still able to post new threads all the time. I tried limiting it to 2 new threads per week. I am running vbulletin 3.6.4, if you know the problem, please let me know, thanks.

I just installed it on 3.6.4 and it works, as it should. Don't use "0" in the rules, maybe this means "turned off".
I tried to give a group permission to post 1 new thread and 2 posts per hour in a forums only - and it works fine! First I though: it does not work, because I was able to write 3 posts. But ist seems, that new threads do not count to new posts. So, in my case, the test user was able to write 1 new thread with 3 posts, or 1 new thread and 2 posts somewhere else. Then he gets the forbidden message...

Great hack!

I am running into what appears to be the same problem as Kalina, I have it installed and am able to set limits in the permissions area, but when I log in and make posts the mod seems to just not work. This is with 3.6.4. (I made sure to double check based on the info PyroMarkus has, but still no go.)

Did you find out what the problem was Kalina or did you give up on it? My best guess is that there is something that is conflicting with it, some other plugin/product, not sure though.

This maybe the exact hack im looking for but unsure about a couple things.

1. Can I set how many post,threads can be created PER FORUM or does this hack work as a global setting, meaning once enabled for usergroup "testgroup" this hacks is for all my forums or can I choose which forum this hack takes effect?

For example what im trying to do is restrict new threads/post to a specific forum "selling forum" to certain usergroups... Will this hack do that?

Can this code be adapted to be used over a longer period of time I need to be able to limit the number of posts in a 6 month period. What is the maximum number or hours you can add in to the mod? Thanks.

Does it work for VB 3.6.4?

[TorGa3iGhT]

could someone help me? ok, so i installed this plugin on 3.5.4, and it works 100% when I set the thread post limit for the administrator. When I set any number for registered users, moderators, or any other group, it just doesn't work, and those usergroups can still post however many threads they want.

I would appreciate any help anyone could offer on this! Thanks!

[stejoh]

Please, make the hack compatible with vB 3.6.x

[libabom]

I need to limit the daily message entry to the web site (forum) that every user can send only 10 messages per day.
Can it be possible? Is there any attachments or settings for this?
