Hi..thanks for this
There is a slight problem, it does not work too clever with GARS

Hello, great hack. thank you. I installed this one and works great but can we do it for this, the same thing for all posts, not only the "first post" of the threads??

Yeah that

This will be great once it's working right!!!! Thanks for this

Yes i only made it like that for the first post, as i thought it would be a bit to much to have that message show on every post. What do you guys think of making it so that the first post has one message and then the second has a different one? This way you can customize it so that it's not to much and such.

I am not familiar with GARS and do not use it, therefore, i'd have to look into making it supported with GARS. If you'd like, feel free to PM me with admincp access to your site so i can take a look at the variables and such. The only way it won't work is if GARS uses something other than $post[message], which i don't see why it would.

Possibly show only the first post?

Also is it possible add a way to make certain forums exempt from this? I have graphics tutorials that need to stay viewable to guests, but to limit the rest of the forums would be nice.
