Miscellaneous Hacks - Cyb - Auto Reply

Info:
I'm using this to automatically welcome users in my "Introductions" sub-forum. You can customize messages and use it for any other auto-replying needs. You can write several messages (separated by |) and they will be used randomly in auto-replies. This work with subjects too. There are three different Sets of subjects/messages to use in different forums. You can set product to not reply to threads started by listed members, turn on/off signatures, etc... See screenshots for details about features...


To get this working don't forget to:
-Set forum id(s) in product options
-Set poster id(s) in product options

Otherwise it will not work or you'll get error messages.


Note:
-This executes 1 simple query on forumdisplay but only in selected forums.
-Same simple query is also executed when user searches for new posts.


Installation:
-Import XML file (as product) through AdminCP: Plugin System > Manage Products > [Add/Import Product]

What version of boards are you using I seriously doubt it's the hack as I haven't had any problems with that at all and I use it as an auto welcome. So every time someone replies to the auto reply as if I were talking to them I step in and reply again. Plus when my mods move topics from other sections to that section I reply in there as well.

Use forum tags.

is there a way to make this simply auto reply at random to the specified forums? Instead of only when a member posts? Also I have a problem that it wont work when I move unapproved posts to approved posts. Is there a way to get it to work even after a post has been approved?

[tafreeh]

this is a great mod... but i have a question...
Seconds to wait (after thread creation) before posting reply i put 30 in this field but still it create the post after 2 hour or so... how do i make it a minute....?
