Double-posting

[[SAP]Francis]

Helloo, I need a code that will prevent users to double-post ( NOT MODERATORS/ADMINS ). If they posted the last post, and they try to BUMB their posts, after pressing the Post button, they will see the friendly message: "YOU CAN'T DOUBLE-POST! DOUBLE-POSTING IS FOR N00BS!"

Thanks,                                                                    Francis

2 Days passed now, any help? Please?

[karlbenson]

There is no current feature for this.

You can request it in the mod requests forum.

[[SAP]Francis]

There is no way to make it with modifying codes?

[karlbenson]

There is no current mod to do it.

But like I said, I'm hopeful that if you request a mod for it, someone will make it.

[[SAP]Francis]

Okay, I found a mod and installed it ( Merge double-posts ). But now, I need to know how to send PMs to tell them that their post has been merged. Any way to do this?

[Dragooon]

I Think I can do this. It seems quite easy.
I'll give it a go in a day or 2

[[SAP]Francis]

Okay, thanks, I just need to send a PM when an user's post is merged.

[Dragooon]

No Lol
I meant, showing them a error message if they try to double post.

[[SAP]Francis]

Ohhhh loool! Thanks!

OK Did it very quickly(Took 1 day) and submitted to the mod site for approval.
Mod Page :
http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=1018 (Currently Not approved)

[[SAP]Francis]

Omg!!! I go test it!
But not approved...

[Dragooon]

Lol Sorry
Before approval you cannot download it from Mod site.
So here is the file I have put there.(Use at your OWN risk).

[[SAP]Francis]

It works, admins got permission to double-post! Thanks! That's exactly what I wanted!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

PS: I need something. Its with the Visual Warning mod. I need to have the permissions 'Warn' and 'Manage replies' in the Moderations permissions, means my moderators will be able to warn, too.

[[SAP]Francis]

Honestly, after installing it, I can't post new topics...

[Dragooon]

I got to know about the issue.
I have updated the Mod on Mod site, (Still not approved though).
I suggest you uninstall it and wait for it to get approved on Mod Site.

[[SAP]Francis]

That's what I did.

[[SAP]Francis]

Bumb.

[Dragooon]

Lol?
Just wait for approval Lol

[[SAP]Francis]

Send me a link, I'll see if it works...

[De4thPr00f]

thx in advance

[[SAP]Francis]

Bumb.

[nick09]

hey give him time.

a mod takes some time to make......

[[SAP]Francis]

It is finished... It is just not APPROVED.

[Dragooon]

So wait for it to be approved then. Its not the only mod out there waiting to be approved, there are many others and it take time and bumping wont speed it up,

You could always go to sleep, and wake up and check back. It might be like fast forwarding time :0.

WTF you talking about?

[Dragooon]

He is simply saying, "Sleep and wait".
Stop bumping this topic.

[[SAP]Francis]

Lol...

EDIT: YAY! 100 posts!!!

[SleePy]

The mod was approved so you could use it now
There are other similar mods that do things differently as well. Just search the mod site.

French translation:

Code Select Expand

// Double Post stopper strings
$txt['double_post_attempt'] = 'Désolé, tu n\'es pas permis de double-poster. Revient en arrière et edit ton post.';
$txt['permissionname_doublePost'] = 'Peux double-poster';
$txt['permissionhelp_doublePost'] = 'En mettant cette option, l\'utilisateur va avoir la permission de poster deux fois d\'affilée.';
$txt['doublePostAdmin_main'] = 'Temps entre deux posts du même user.';
$txt['doublePostHelp'] = 'Temps ( en jours ) avant que le post ne soit considéré comme un essaie de monter son topic.';
$txt['doublePostAdmin_sub'] = 'Est mits en jours. Cliquez l\'iconne: <img src="images/helptopics.gif" /> pour plus d'infos. Laissez vide pour toujours permettre le double-posting.';
