Change a user's post incrementation factor... · **Released**: 03-04-2003

This hach was requested by nintendo: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=49637

This hack allows you to set the direction and the incrementation factor for user posts.
The default incrementation factor is 1. With this hack you can freeze a user's post
count by setting the incrementation factor to 0, or you can make it go backwards by
setting it to -1. Of course, you are not limitet to -1, 0, or 1. You can set it to
any positive or negative number and that users post caount will increment or decrement
by the specified number each time that user makes a post.

Tables affected by this hack: user, usertitle
Files affected by this hack: newthread.php, newreply.php, admin/user.php

To begin with this hack you must allow for negative post counts, and you need an
additional field in the user table.

Execute the following statements at the MySQL prompt:

alter table user add postdirection smallint(5) DEFAULT 1 NOT NULL;
alter table user modify posts int(6) default 0 NOT NULL;
alter table usertitle modify minposts int(6);

Quote:

Note: If you have installed this hack and are not able to set the post incrementation factor to a negative number execute the following statement.

alter table user modify postdirection smallint(5) default 1 not null;

I apologize for this mixup.

I have already updated the instruction file.
