CraKteR Wrote:and I said I was gonna do an minimum chars thingy so stay tuned
Can't it be done by replacing
PHP Code:
if(strlen(trim($mybb->input['message'])) == 0)
{
error($lang->error_nomessage);
}
into
PHP Code:
if(strlen(trim($mybb->input['message'])) == 0 || strlen(trim($mybb->input['message'])) < 5 )
{
error($lang->error_nomessage);
}
change in newthread.php and newreply.php, the minimum chars in a message is set to 5 ... Probably not the best way to do it but it "works" i suppose
Only problem i think is that you don't have admin-settings But that can't be too hard to integrate Update ::
