Hidden Board accessed over time (not membergroup)?
« on: June 22, 2012, 09:31:38 AM »
I have created a For Sale/Swap hidden board on the forum that can be accessed by only certain membergroups however some members are joining, posting one word replies until they get to the right membergroup/post count and then proceed to visit each day just to promote their own items for sale :(

Is there a way to base access to a hidden board on length of time they have been a member?  For example can I say they cannot  post in that board until they have been a member for 3 months (instead of the 1-2 days it takes them to reach the membergroup/post count just now)?

Unfortuantely that mod would not do for me as the rest of my membergroups are on a post-based method and this mod allows for  post-based or time-based :(   I only need this one board to be time-based but thanks for the quick reply and the suggestion - it's appreciated.
