Must have post to see links

[Android4Life]

Is it possible to make it where you have to have  a certain amount of post to see links?

[Suki]

You mean the links on any message?

sure is possible, open Sources/Subs.php find:

Code Select Expand

'content' => '<a href="$1" class="bbc_link" target="_blank">$1</a>',

replace with:

Code Select Expand

'content' => $user_info['posts'] < 10 ? 'sorry, you cannot see the links until you get 10 posts' : '<a href="$1" class="bbc_link" target="_blank">$1</a>',

find this:

Code Select Expand

'after' => '</a>',
'validate' => create_function('&$tag, &$data, $disabled', '
if (strpos($data, \'http://\') !== 0 && strpos($data, \'https://\') !== 0)
$data = \'http://\' . $data;
'),



and replace with:

Code Select Expand

'after' => '</a>',
'validate' => create_function('&$tag, &$data, $disabled', '
if (strpos($data, \'http://\') !== 0 && strpos($data, \'https://\') !== 0)
$data = \'http://\' . $data;

if($user_info[\'posts\'] < 10)
$data = \'sorry, you cannot see the links until you get 10 posts\';
'),


Just change the 10 for any number you want.

code is from memory so it may have some errors. Do a backup of your file first.

It'll work with the url BB code, and it's located by going to the root directory of SMF (where SSI.php is located) and going to the Sources directory. From there, you will see the Subs.php file.

I did it and now my forum won't load, get this. thanks for the help in advance!

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting ')' in /home/content/38/6934638/html/forum/Sources/Subs.php on line 1308

My Subs.php is attached to this post.

[ascaland]

Here you go.

Thanks! It does not block it off though, I created another account with no post and it didn't stop me from seeing links. Could my Registered Links mod be affecting it?

[Android4Life]

or does it not work on the topic post?

[Android4Life]

Please can anyone help?

[Suki]

Android4Life please do not bump your topic like that.

Use this one.

Android4Life please do not bump your topic like that.

Use this one.

Using this one I get
Not Found

The requested URL /forum/sorry, you cannot see the links until you get 10 posts was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request

[Suki]

That's because we are replacing an url with text.

Use this one.

nice tutorial thanks for the info..

[ascaland]

Use this one.

Suki, don't forget to bring $user_info into the function's scope.

[Suki]

Oh yeah, good old globals, I always forget those.

Actually, instead of modifying the tag directly, let's use the buffer instead, use this one

[Android4Life]

with this in there, I get

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting ')' in /home/content/38/6934638/html/forum/Sources/Subs.php on line 1308

on every page.

Also could you make it 2 post instead of 10? I tried, but it didn't work. Thanks, I really appreciate!

[Android4Life]

Also like an idiot I didn't back up the original so does anyone have that?

[Marcus Forsberg]

Does this work?
