Doublepost = Not counted in user's post count · **Released**: 08-22-2002

We all know that sometimes there is a need to post a couple times in a row, whether it be multiple attachments, posting updates, etc. This hack will make it so that the double/triple/whatever post is not added to the user's post count, but still shown and updated in the forum and thread count. I kow at some boards there is a lot of competition in post counts, and although doubleposting is not looked highly upon in most forums, this would ensure that the user isn't getting any benefit out of it. Plus people could use it for bumping topics, etc, etc, etc. This hack will also make it so if that doublepost is deleted, it will not subtract from the user's postcount. Since it was never added in the first place, it shouldn't be a problem

.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: I did use (with permission) the query and if statement from Xenon's Prevent Doubleposting hack.
---------------------------------------------------------------------

This is a simple hack which only involves 2 file edits (editpost.php and newreply.php). And it does work with the QRB =P. If you have any questions, etc, post them here.

DOESN'T WORK.

you know we like to help

and to explain what i meant with attachment problem:
in my doublepost hack, if a user posts two posts in row and both contains attachments then the posts wouldn't be merged as it would be when none of the posts has an attachment

it was never a problem, i just mentioned, because at first you used my codeline and have also included the attachment stop.

I guess all I really want to know is exactly what code I need to work with Xenon's Double post hack.

I am totally confused now.

Boofo i think you're just suppose to use the coding that his hack includes... the only thing about his hack as that if there's multiple attachments it will disregard of one i believe... or at least thats what i got from what he said

I know, but his hack didn't include the not counting posts I don't think, did it?

no Boofo it didn't... but instead Xenon's hack merged the posts so infact a double post would never exist... but not sure if he used a time limit in his hack?

Ok, well, I guess I don't really need this one then.

You can set the time limit for stopping double posts with his hack.

correct, this two hacks can hardly be used together

it depends on every admins opinion which one he likes more...

Boofo · #61 08-24-2002, 12:19 PM

Sorry, Stefan, I didn't realize that your hack didn't add postcounts to Double Posts. I don't understand enough of this php stuff yet to sypher it all out. Sorry for making you have to put up with my nonsense.
