Re: how to disallow to users to delete post older 24 hours

There's no way to do this. You'll have to modify the code to add this feature.

I don't think it's too hard to add this. You just have to check the timestamp of the post in viewtopic.php, delete.php and edit.php.

Re: how to disallow to users to delete post older 24 hours

I believe there was a thread about this particular feature earlier, though. I suggest you try searching for it.

Re: how to disallow to users to delete post older 24 hours

Here's a quick way to do it.

In viewtopic.php (around line 281), replace:

    
        // Generation post action array (quote, edit, delete etc.)
    if (!$is_admmod)
    {
        if (!$pun_user['is_guest'])
            $post_actions[] = '<li class="postreport"><a href="misc.php?report='.$cur_post['id'].'">'.$lang_topic['Report'].'</a>';

        if ($cur_topic['closed'] == '0')
        {
            if ($cur_post['poster_id'] == $pun_user['id'])
            {
                if ((($start_from + $post_count) == 1 && $pun_user['g_delete_topics'] == '1') || (($start_from + $post_count) > 1 && $pun_user['g_delete_posts'] == '1'))
                    $post_actions[] = '<li class="postdelete"><a href="delete.php?id='.$cur_post['id'].'">'.$lang_topic['Delete'].'</a>';
                if ($pun_user['g_edit_posts'] == '1')
                    $post_actions[] = '<li class="postedit"><a href="edit.php?id='.$cur_post['id'].'">'.$lang_topic['Edit'].'</a>';
            }

            if (($cur_topic['post_replies'] == '' && $pun_user['g_post_replies'] == '1') || $cur_topic['post_replies'] == '1')
                $post_actions[] = '<li class="postquote"><a href="post.php?tid='.$id.'&amp;qid='.$cur_post['id'].'">'.$lang_topic['Quote'].'</a>';
        }
    }
    else
        $post_actions[] = '<li class="postreport"><a href="misc.php?report='.$cur_post['id'].'">'.$lang_topic['Report'].'</a>'.$lang_common['Link separator'].'</li><li class="postdelete"><a href="delete.php?id='.$cur_post['id'].'">'.$lang_topic['Delete'].'</a>'.$lang_common['Link separator'].'</li><li class="postedit"><a href="edit.php?id='.$cur_post['id'].'">'.$lang_topic['Edit'].'</a>'.$lang_common['Link separator'].'</li><li class="postquote"><a href="post.php?tid='.$id.'&amp;qid='.$cur_post['id'].'">'.$lang_topic['Quote'].'</a>';

With:

    // Generation post action array (quote, edit, delete etc.)
    if (!$is_admmod)
    {
        if (!$pun_user['is_guest'])
            $post_actions[] = '<li class="postreport"><a href="misc.php?report='.$cur_post['id'].'">'.$lang_topic['Report'].'</a>';

        if ($cur_topic['closed'] == '0')
        {
            if ($cur_post['poster_id'] == $pun_user['id'])
            {
                if ((($start_from + $post_count) == 1 && $pun_user['g_delete_topics'] == '1') || (($start_from + $post_count) > 1 && $pun_user['g_delete_posts'] == '1'))
                {
                    $now = time();
                    if ($now < ($cur_post['posted']+86400))
                        $post_actions[] = '<li class="postdelete"><a href="delete.php?id='.$cur_post['id'].'">'.$lang_topic['Delete'].'</a>';
                }
                if ($pun_user['g_edit_posts'] == '1')
                {
                    if ($now < ($cur_post['posted']+86400))
                        $post_actions[] = '<li class="postedit"><a href="edit.php?id='.$cur_post['id'].'">'.$lang_topic['Edit'].'</a>';
                }
            }

            if (($cur_topic['post_replies'] == '' && $pun_user['g_post_replies'] == '1') || $cur_topic['post_replies'] == '1')
                $post_actions[] = '<li class="postquote"><a href="post.php?tid='.$id.'&amp;qid='.$cur_post['id'].'">'.$lang_topic['Quote'].'</a>';
        }
    }
    else
        $post_actions[] = '<li class="postreport"><a href="misc.php?report='.$cur_post['id'].'">'.$lang_topic['Report'].'</a>'.$lang_common['Link separator'].'</li><li class="postdelete"><a href="delete.php?id='.$cur_post['id'].'">'.$lang_topic['Delete'].'</a>'.$lang_common['Link separator'].'</li><li class="postedit"><a href="edit.php?id='.$cur_post['id'].'">'.$lang_topic['Edit'].'</a>'.$lang_common['Link separator'].'</li><li class="postquote"><a href="post.php?tid='.$id.'&amp;qid='.$cur_post['id'].'">'.$lang_topic['Quote'].'</a>';

Oh, my mistake.  Add

                    $now = time();

Above the if statement.

Re: how to disallow to users to delete post older 24 hours

You'll still be able to access edit.php and delete.php directly. And what about moderators and administrators?

I assume he meant just regular users. As for still being able to access them directly, quick was the key word in my post.

Re: how to disallow to users to delete post older 24 hours

This is an interesting idea, but I think I would choose a different time period

either 5 minutes - you have a little time to fix any typos and then its locked

or else a week or two - you can edit while the topic is fresh, but lock it later so you don't have to moderate ancient posts

just change the 86400 figure to what you want
