[Boots]

will this work on the secondary usergroup?

[q8manar]

No Answer until Now :(

[PHPKD]

thanks very much
Installed & working 100% without any problems or errors

[luroca]

This is a very useful hack and I click install but it´s a little buggy, at least in my board :(

Permissions are nor inherited (I must set manually for every forum) but the valids post/thread/hour limits are the ones from parent forum/category, not which I set for each forum ...
Is this a bug or a specific problem of mine?

A suggestion: Why not settings in usergroups manager?

Regards

[Dadoo]

A suggestion: Why not settings in usergroups manager?


I couldn't agree anymore,
I used this hack on 3.0.7 without any problem and it was great but now it's very very very very very hard to edit any usergroup's permissions
I have 40+ forum parts and for every part I have to edit "each" and "every" usergroup's permissions ONE BY ONE. This is a total timekiller and I'm about to lose my nerve ;)

anyway thank you for the hack but please, please please could you make this one work, like the "old 3.0.x style"???

[BoYagoob]

installed, and worked great! :)

[Fergal C]

Can this plug in be used to limit the total number of posts members make on a community per day?

Or must it be done forum by forum?

[masterross]

hello,

i've tried to set
Maximum New Threads 1
and
Enter time period here (in hours) 0
so user to be able to make only 1 thread for ever in a forum
but it did acept it :(
can you modify it to do that?

thanks,
Ross

I'd like to have that beaviour too.

Say I set a limit for a sub-forum

All the child forum get the limitation, but the actual "counter" is for each individual sub-forum. Instead of for the whole sub-forum


Thanks.

[TwTom]

I've been looking for one of these for a while. Great hack!

[AndrusW]

Will this work in 3.6.2?

[Jay...]

legendary mod! it works with 3.6.3 everyone! i am over the moon with this!

[punchbowl]

works on 3.6.4 too!

[yingzhou]

Very good mod. Sorry for not see all the post here! :D

[Kalina]

I don't get it, it's working for others, but not for me. I installed it and set permissions per forum for each usergroup and they're still able to post new threads all the time. I tried limiting it to 2 new threads per week. I am running vbulletin 3.6.4, if you know the problem, please let me know, thanks.

[PyroMarkus]

@Kalina

I just installed it on 3.6.4 and it works, as it should. Don't use "0" in the rules, maybe this means "turned off".
I tried to give a group permission to post 1 new thread and 2 posts per hour in a forums only - and it works fine! First I though: it does not work, because I was able to write 3 posts. But ist seems, that new threads do not count to new posts. So, in my case, the test user was able to write 1 new thread with 3 posts, or 1 new thread and 2 posts somewhere else. Then he gets the forbidden message...

Great hack!

[timwf]

I am running into what appears to be the same problem as Kalina, I have it installed and am able to set limits in the permissions area, but when I log in and make posts the mod seems to just not work. This is with 3.6.4. (I made sure to double check based on the info PyroMarkus has, but still no go.)

Did you find out what the problem was Kalina or did you give up on it? My best guess is that there is something that is conflicting with it, some other plugin/product, not sure though.

[bada_bing]

This maybe the exact hack im looking for but unsure about a couple things.

1. Can I set how many post,threads can be created PER FORUM or does this hack work as a global setting, meaning once enabled for usergroup "testgroup" this hacks is for all my forums or can I choose which forum this hack takes effect?

For example what im trying to do is restrict new threads/post to a specific forum "selling forum" to certain usergroups... Will this hack do that?

[Sparkey]

Can this code be adapted to be used over a longer period of time I need to be able to limit the number of posts in a 6 month period. What is the maximum number or hours you can add in to the mod? Thanks.

Sparkey

[libabom]

Does it work for VB 3.6.4?

[TorGa3iGhT]

could someone help me? ok, so i installed this plugin on 3.5.4, and it works 100% when I set the thread post limit for the administrator. When I set any number for registered users, moderators, or any other group, it just doesn't work, and those usergroups can still post however many threads they want.

I would appreciate any help anyone could offer on this! Thanks!

[stejoh]

Please, make the hack compatible with vB 3.6.x

[libabom]

I need to limit the daily message entry to the web site (forum) that every user can send only 10 messages per day.
Can it be possible? Is there any attachments or settings for this?

1. Yes
2. Thats what it does

[Kalina]

This plugin has been fine for me til today, I am running vBulletin 3.6.8 Patch Level 1. Now, ALL my forums that aren't set for this plugin, the ones left at "0" for all 4 fields, well now it's literally not letting anyone post a thread or reply except for once per hour, for select forums only.

Any idea why it would suddenly do this?

[baghdad4ever]

i want this hack per forums only

not per usergroup/forum

bec i had 20 usergroups and 100 forums

so it is hard to edit all user group in all forums

[Subah]

Thanks :)

did you add the casino mod? that's what did it for me

[Kwikms]

vb 3.6.8 - doesnt work for me :(

no error. I put in

Maximum New Threads 2 Enter time period here (in hours) 1

Maximum New Posts 3 Enter time period here (in hours) 1

for administrator in an admin-only forum. Nothing happens, I can post as much as I want.

What could be wront here?

EDIT: - I tried another usergroup in another forum and it works. maybe it's because of the admin-status.

[Forum Lover]

is it 3.7 friendly?

[Kwikms]

Code:

I'd love to see

You may only make {1} replies every {2} hours. Please come back in about {3} hours.

Shouldnt be to hard to get this information out of this query, but I dont know how. Any ideas?

[Konstantinos]

can u make this per forum and for all usegroups cause if for example i want all usergroups to post 50 posts to a single forum i cant cause setting 50 max for every usergroup if i have 8 usergroups results to 400

[m2006]

thanks you very good mod

[Subah]

Any update for 3.7 ?

[Basboss]

I'm using it with vB 3.7 and it's working just fine :)

[Kwikms]

Two suggetions:

- Show a user how many posts/replies he is allowed to make in this forum
- Show a user how long he has to wait till he can post again.

Would be awesome.

[clr_75]

On our site we have a few of the "Vote Off" games and one of the rules is you can only vote once every day. Could this mod work to limit users to only 1 post in a particular thread per 24 hours? If not does anyone know of a mod to do so?

Thanks!

[PyroMarkus]

I love this mod and I do not get real errors in 3.7.2 and in 3.7.3 but it seems not to work properly anymore - it did for 2 years with 3.6.4.

Even as admin I suddenly get often the mod-message "you are not allowed anymore today..." in some "private" forums although there never was an value set for this mod in those forums.

Somehow it seems to fail in any forums, which is limited to start threads for some/most usergroups...

[Puntoboy]

Have you managed to get this working for 3.7.3 PL1?

[PyroMarkus]

No, I am so sorry. It brings the above mentioned errors and I had to permanetly disable it.

[Cyn]

Working great in 3.6.11 :)

[PyroMarkus]

Try to upgrade, because 3.6.x is different ;):

...but it seems not to work properly anymore - it did for 2 years with 3.6.4.

[drgonzo120]

anyone who will update this to 3.7.2 ?

[Basboss]

It works just fine with 3.7.3 and 3.8.0 beta 1

[PyroMarkus]

Are you sure?

Yes, the plugin was working in 3.7.x but with those new versions (after 3.6.x) I suddenly had irregulary messages for some users and even admins, that they would exceed their limits, although they did not or even had no limits at all in those forums.

So, working, somehow: yes, but working as intended: no, starting from 3.7. - in my installation...

[yahoooh]

any update for 3.8

[eternal_]

Is there one where a usergroup will only be able to post a certain number of posts across all forums? With this one the settings are for each individual forum.

[Spaz21]

does this work with 3.8.1??

[fourat]

Work with 3.8.2 :)

[Javierogo]

This hack is terrible! :down:

[yahooooh]

any one update this for 3.8

[yahooooh]

we need one confirm that it works in 3.8.4 witjout issues plz

[Kwikms]

we need one confirm that it works in 3.8.4 witjout issues plz

It does work with 3.8.4 for me.

[aleclee]

Works fine for me in 3.8.4.

Wondering if anyone has tried it in 4.0.

[Wajdan]

Does it work with vb4 ?

[cuocsongso]

Does it work with vb4 ?
I don't think so

[yahooooh]

plz we need this great hack for vb4

[BirdOPrey5]

Off hand I don't see any reason this wouldn't work in 4.x. Anyone that curious should just try it.

[Phobos49]

Does NOT work with 3.8.7 PL2. :(
