Possible to set the ability to have a member album to "full member" status? I think it would remove a lot of the liability of allowing members to be able to upload photos, since it's obvious whether they are "good/bad" by the time they get to ~30 posts...

I am asking since we're wanting to install this at ubbdev to show it off and didn't want cranks signing up with accts and uploading unwanted graphics/photos :)

That should be possible. Fits in nicely with the "guest" feature request that was just made too...

I've had a look through my member files, and I'm not sure where the best place to read that status is. Line 9 has kind of the right info, but I'm not sure if that'll change from board to board. (I.E. Junior Member becomes "Noob" at some other site, and breaks the script...)

Anyone have any ideas where to do a good solid check for junior member status?

Thanks

line #9 is the same across ubb's regardless of the custom title (at least in the 7 I just checked ;) )

We have different names in the threads for the titles, but in the member files themselves, it's the above.

Cool. I saw the same thing in my board. I wrote a quick script to parse line 9 from all members, and saw the same result. Looks good!

OK, I'll see what I can do...

Done! Give it a try in the 6.0 beta. You'll have to replace album.pl and album_strings.txt.

It works through the new "block_ubb_junior_members_from_uploading" config item. When set to 1 (the default) junior members can not upload.

Cheers

album.pl and album strings are a couple + days old... did the right ones make it to the party? :)

My bad. I've started doing the development on a new system, and for some reason that meant I neglected to copy the updated files into the build area.

Anyway, it's fixed now... Hope you didn't waste too much time on that one!

Cheers

no problem, I can say from experience you are ahead of a couple of paid scripts in the organization department ;)

Sweeeeet.  ;D

Thanks, this is bound to attract some attention and therefore more feedback, which is always a good thing.

Thanks!
