How would I remove the rep button or disable it in a sub-forum.
I have a sub-forum for off-topic stuff. And posts does not count there, and I would like for it to not be able to rep there neither.
there are two simple methods to make a button invisible
one is using
template conditionals plugin and other is
css trick
method using the plugin :
open
postbit templates (both
postbit &
postbit_classic templates)
find the code for reputation button
{$post['button_rep']} and use code like below for it
<if $fid <> X then>
{$post['button_rep']}
</if>
where
X is the forum id (number) of your sub-forum where you do not need the
reputation button
If you plan to do more of such special things consider template conditionals. Its actually a terrific mod without which even my themes will fail.
It always you to insert a condition ie an if and else statement. Using this you can hide certain thing s from guest while making it available to users.
