Set permissions on the images and links in the posts

by Luky November 1st 2009, 7:30 pm

You can now add permissions for viewing the images/links in your messages. This option will allow admins to choose who has the permissions to see the links and/or images. Everything is configurable individually for each category/forum/sub-category/sub-forum or for the entire forum.

People who don't have the necessary permissions, will see a small alert message instead of the images/links.

If viewing the images/links is forbidden for guests, a link to log in/register will be displayed instead of images/links when browsing the forum.

Enabling this option will increase the chances of acquiring new members for your forum. Very Happy

How it works?

Go to your Administration Panel > General > Categories and forums

Select Forum you want to modify and click on this button

Here is an example of a message that contains two links and a picture:

This is what we see in the same post if the sub-forum which it belongs to can be read by guests, but the options to hide the links and images are enabled:

It's your turn now! Wink
