Mod Name / Version: Show Post Count to Admins and Mods only 2.0

Description: Allows the administrator to select whether the Post Count will be displayed on the forum (for each user) and to whom (admins, admins and mods, all, none). Very useful modification if you have users (I have one of them) who don't have anything to do all day and loiter the forum with posts that contain either one laughing graemlin or words of wisdom like "I agree" - so that they can increase their post count.

A different aproach would be to exclude users from having the post count upped

in addpost.php:


// ------------------------
// Up their totalposts by 1
if ($Username != "trouble_maker"){
$Totalposts = $user['U_Totalposts'] + 1;
}
