VBulletin question
 

How do you set the minimum number of posts someone can make before they can add a URL to their post?
Anyone know by chance?

What version of vbulletin are you running?

night be an add on, check vbulletin.org the hacks section

Yeah, that is what I came up with too . . . was hoping maybe I missed an update

3.0.7 and 3.6.4

Cyb - Advanced Permissions Based on User's Post Count

This product allows you to set permissions based on user?s post count for:
-viewing forum (threads listing),
-viewing threads content,
-creating new threads,
-replying to threads,
-viewing attachments,
-Viewing/Posting links and e-mail addresses,
-sending private messages,
-sending e-mails.

This will disallow members with no permissions to view forums/threads/posts/links through normal view, printthread, search, archive*, thread preview. Note that you can set Forum/Thread Permissions for each forum/sub-forum separately. Screenshot shows additional options in Forum Manager and error messages shown to user when trying to view restricted area.

*-When you set in some forum "Minimum Post Count To View Thread Listing In This Forum" option to different value than "0" guests will not be able to see thread listing in that forum through Archive. For logged-in users this function works normally regarding user's post count.
-When you set in some forum "Minimum Post Count To View Threads Content In This Forum" option to different value than "0" guests will not be able to read threads in that forum through Archive. For logged-in users this function works normally regarding user's post count.


in the 3.6 addons in vbulletin.org

i advice using invision or phpbb =D

thanks fris . . .

Baddog, you need to upgrade to 3.6.5 . If I'm not mistaken, you would have to create group permssions in your admincp and then assign permissions to that group.

This one works quick and easy too.

thanks all . . . . now to block Russia and I am set

I advise suicide for you.

Sidenote....

Quick and dirty way to block those pesky bot spammers (they have defeated the captcha/image verification during registration) is to add a required field to profiles/registration like "choose a number between 1 and 100" (use the regex option to make sure it IS a number between 1 and 100 .. or whatever you come up with) ...

I did this on our board and stopped them dead in their tracks. If it was ever circumvented, I'd just change that required field to another question.

After you tried suicide by chopping your testicles off, i'm not really interested in suicide no more

linking to another forum, ban hammer!
