I thought this hack was cool myself i'll probably be installing it on my own forum

Here's a screenshot of the added permission thanks to The Ghost for confirming that an option like this didn't exist

Though i know you can restrict by forums but thats a much bigger task Enjoy

One more quick note if you disable administrators from deleting posts then they won't have access either... for security reasons all usergroups were set to no... so you have to activate the users you want to have permission regular members wont' have access either way

Will this also stop them from deleting threads? That's what the Ghost was looking for, I think.

Can we get a text version of this, too, please?

[g-force2k2]

Thanks! Might not be a bad idea to say that in the first message.

I have this in 2 places in the editpost.php. Which one do I add the code after?

if ($action=="deletepost") {

[g-force2k2]

sorry boofo ;\ totally missed that... i tested it on the first one but failed to see the second one... but correct me if i am wrong but if you place it on the first one can you edit the post then or does it give you an error?

This line is in the usergroup.php not the user.php. You need to edit your instructions.

makeyesnocode("Can delete own threads by deleting the first post","candeletethread",0);

[g-force2k2]

i made an error i will fix the changes and update tomarrow ;\ don't have a forum to test with at the moment so i'll re add later... sorry about that...

After adding it after the first occurrance, I can still edit posts so that looks good. You haven't tested this yet? Shouldn't it be in the beta section until it is fully tested at least once?

[g-force2k2]

I did test it boofo just didn't notice that there were two differen't if ($action=="deletepost") {

my friend allows me to test on his forum but hes not on right now ;\

i tested it but after you stated the issue about two different actions that got me... so i'll do another final test tomarrow... and i'll have to take into consideration the editing perms...

but i did test and it didn't allow for deletion but better sure to make sure there isn't anything added before reattaching something that is...
