Modification Name: Post Count-Restricted Forums 3.1.0 Author(s): CTM Description: Allows Administrators to restrict access to a forum by post count. Restriction is via Forum Settings section in Control Panel, and an unlimited number of forums can be set in this way. Administrators and Moderators of the post count-restricted forums can bypass the post count limit, in the same way that they are able to bypass other forum restrictions. Unauthorised users may not search post count-restricted forums or see their Recent Visitors information. Fully Wordlet-ised for easy modification and translation. Demo: None Requirements: UBB.classic 6.7.0 or higher Download Link: Contact privately Credits: Allen and Gizzy, for pushing me hard enough to release this  Updates:Version 3.1.0:Fixed small Recent Visitors loophole (thanks Ian Spence) - If you're using v3.0.0 find and remove the following in ubb_lib_pntf.cgi: && (&UBB::LIB::PostCountRestriction($in->{f}) == 1) So here it is, the updated version of PCRF at long last. Fixed all bugs from the 2.0.0 series, including that horrible Recent Visitors bug and all the Search bugs (as far as I can see). Thanks again to Allen, Gizzy and Ian Spence for encouraging me to get this done. Sorry I had to make you wait so long.  This mod might work on 6.6.x, but I'm not going to make it official until someone tries (I don't use 6.6 any more so I don't have anywhere to test it; if you do get it working on 6.6 then I'd be very grateful if you could tell me so others could know too). Bug reports/problems/comments/flames all welcome, but please keep them in this topic because my PM inbox needs to be cleaned out first. Thanks

Ian Spence has found a problem that is caused by my code when users are not logged in and try to view a forum or topic. This problem is now fixed (PCRF v3.0.1). If you're using v3.0.0 find and remove the following in ubb_lib_pntf.cgi: && (&UBB::LIB::PostCountRestriction($in->{f}) == 1)Thanks Ian

hey; you're the one who asks me if you can install them to my board... Evidently UGN is Al's test board lol...
I don't even think my "mod's installed" post is accurate anymore; you should update the list lol...

Well that's weird, because I wrote the thing and I can't find those bits either... Does the mod work okay without those instructions? If so, those instructions must've come from a previous mod that I based the documentation on. If PCRFs are searchable by authenticated users and are unsearchable by unauthorised users without the bits you can't find, then those instructions mean nothing and I need to remove them. I'll take another bash at this after the exam today. Thanks for the report Allen

A few people have told me that this works on 6.7.1, and as far as I know there haven't been any code changes that would affect this mod. Try rehacking ubb_lib.cgi, ubb_forum_summary.cgi, and especially cp2_forums.cgi.

I tried it 3 times and it's still the same
What should be the room settings of the one I want to restrict? does it have to be set as a Private Room? does the room name must be checked under the Forum Permissions in the user profile?

Which version of UBB.classic are you using?

Are you using any other mods (particularly ones that involve forums or the Control Panel) alongside this one? I'll see if I can install the mod on a fresh copy of 6.7.0 later tonight, and if not I'll mess with the code a bit to see what's wrong.

Thanks..
I'm almost done installing this. Will this allow me to prevent users with a post count >25 from viewing and posting in certain areas or is it only for the search and recent viewers?

Ok, I installed it and it seems that it does not work on 6.6... anyone think they could fix it or is 6.6 forgotten by all now? I added a test forum and tried it with a test account and it didn't work. Now I can't delete the test forum for some reason. It gives me this error after I've deleted it and I try to access it. quote:
An error has occurred: No such file or directory opening NonCGIPath/Forum17 at CGIPath/ubb_lib_files.cgi line 878 main::NiceForumThreadsRebuild() called at CGIPath/ubb_lib_files.cgi line 436 main::GenerateDotThreadsFile() called at CGIPath/ubb_lib_files.cgi line 412 main::GetForumTopics() called at CGIPath/ubb_forum.cgi line 247 main::get_forum called at ultimatebb.cgi line 706 Please inform the board administration of this error so that they may fix the problem. Thank you!
I put all of the original files back and it still doesn't work. Here's the debug info when I try to delete the testing forum for the second time. quote:

You might give him until Monday or so to respond, some people access their accounts Mon-Fri.

No luck with contacting CTM. Anyone have it archived somewhere ? I really Really REALLY could use this modification.
