File Name: Number of Posts to Post Links (Anti Spam Measurement)

This will give the admin the option to make it so only users with a certain post count set by him/her can post links in posts and threads. By default it is set to 5 posts. This is an anti spam measurement if you will.

Install the hook.xml file through Manage Hooks in your Admin Panel and then to configure it go to System Settings. There you will see a new setting called NenaDice. Click on it and configure the hook to your needs. There you can enable/disable the hook, set the number of posts needed to post links, enter your custom error message and as last but not least you can choose which groups and forums can bypass the post restriction.

Hello,

Does thid hook block images too? I would like to have this but only to block links and not image links. I'm not a PHP developer ... just looking to the code and note this preg_match:

if(preg_match("/http:\/\/|www\./i", $this->request['Post']))


Has I understand, it only blocks "http:www.example.com" and not "http://example.blogspot.com".

Is that right?

Thanks.

Yes, it will block images and the tlinks in your example too. It will block any kind of clickable links.

I'm having a slight issue at the moment and we can't pin point the cause. Occasionally we get members who get the error message (that they can't post a url) and I'm absolutely positive that they aren't posting any url's. ANy ideas ? It's about 1 out of every 100 members that have this issue when the first sign up.

Can this allow IMG but not URL links?


In my forum I have lot's of images and need to allow these.



Thanks




No, as I said it stops all kinds of links.

I am using this in several forums of my clients and we have never encountered this. If the post will not contain any links in it then it will go through fine.

Maybe the problem is on that user's end. Anyway, I can not fix something that I can not reproduce.
