Hey, i am having a little problem with my forum and i was hoping someone could help me. I want to set up my forum in a way so that guests can view any posts in the forum, but they cant see any links that are posted. So when a user posts a link to somewhere, when a guests looks at it, it just says something like "(You must be a registered member to view links)". I hope this is possible, Thanks

Note: I am using phpBB3. and i dont want to spam, so if you would like the link to my forum, just post that and then ill post the link.

Nope. I advise you get cheap/free hosting and install phpbb3 or nulled vB onto it. You'll find it has a lot more features than forumotion and if you're on offshore you can host your porno and warez! Smile

All you need to do is post
Code:
[hide]link here[/hide]
You will need to do this for all the post and you will need to type the message saying you will need to register to see the post or whatever you want.

That's just annoying.

1) Who the hell would want to put hide tags on every link in their post.

2) Only staff and topic repliers can view it. Not members who haven't replied.

3) Members won't always put hide tags on all their links.

OP: I have an offshore server, i'll let you have an account on it for 10$ a month. Which is a great offer. From my knowledge, forumotion don't give backups, so I can crawl your forum over there for free. Trust me, official phpbb3 is so much better than forumotion.
