So often on forums when a particular poster reaches a notable plateau, a thread gets started "congrats to X poster for reaching X amount of posts. What this is, is similar to the mod that creates a new thread everytime someone registers. What this does is allow you to set milestones in your admincp(1000,2000,4000 or something like that) and it will start a thread automatically in a forum of your choice when posters in usergroups specified in the settings reach those points.
This is compatible in versions 3.6.x to the best of my knowledge.
Installation is simple, just upload the XML file and go to settings in your admincp. If you use it, please click install!:up:
When a user already has a congratulating thread, do not make a new one for him.
Possible scenarios:
* user posts, reaches the milestone, then deletes his post, then posts again, deletes his post etc. new threads get created each time.
* user posts, then his next post comes in a forum where posts are not counted, so his postcount stays at, say 1000. new threads get created each time.
Less likely scenario:
* another mod interferes, and short posts are not counted, so his postcount remains at the milestone mark. this is basically the same as point 2 above.
Possible solution:
* create the thread name, and see if there is already a thread title like that (by the same author, as the script runs). if there is, do not create the thread.
This doesn't seem to work for me on my forum. When I use my test username and set the post count to 499 and have the milestone to 500, when I post the 500th post, as soon as I do the quick reply I immediately get the "You must wait 15 seconds before posting again."
I got mine to work but I'm getting the same thing! And yes the it's not the same user.

I get the same error message it does actually make the post but says you have to wait 30 secs to post again.
And the account i set up to make the post, dont make the post?

Unfortunately this is occuring more and more often. Without this issue being addressed, I have to uninstall this mod, as I have to clean up after many users... This should not be the point of this mod.
