I would like to be able to disallow the deletion of posts (regardless of whether or not it has replies) by users. I would still like moderators and administrators to have this option but not regular users. Is there a mod for this that would enable me to turn this function on and off from the admin panel? Thanks in advance...

not currently but I am sure one could be written very easily. you would need to add a check to the deletepost.php
if ( ($user['U_Number'] != $Postedby) && ($user['U_Status'] != "Administrator") && (!$modcheck) ) {
$html -> not_right($ubbt_lang['NO_EDIT'],$Cat);
}
where if the forum is checked then they can't delete unless a mod or a admin
and then in the admin control panel viewboard.php add a field that allows you to check permissioning for delete by user group...

Quick update... Checking the admin log, I see that there have been no post deletions since I installed this little "tweek". And no one has whined yet either... which I kinda half suspected might happen. They didn't want me knowing that they were going around posting and deleting... using that method to bump threads and then causing people to think there are new posts and there's not and they think it's a "software bug" and I'm getting flooded with email and PMs... blahblahblah. They didn't know that I had logging on and knew exactly who was doing what... Anyway... so it's working!!
