has anyone/can anyone make a hack that would track a user's number of posts per a certain forum? i.e they would have 2 post counts, 1 being the main post count, and 1 being the count for that certain forum. Thx :)

I thought this might be easy, and it was. :)

In showthread.php go to line 488. You'll see something like:

Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------

change it to:

Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------

Go down about 6 lines where you see:

Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------

and add a line so you have:

Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------

Finally, go to the Postbit Template named "postbit".

Near the bottom of the initial window you'll see:

Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------

Change it to:

Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------

Be sure each line of code is on a single line, so if you copy/paste watch that it doesn't embed some newlines in there.

Let me know how it goes for you please.
