| thank you ruirib...........but the forum has a lot of subforums, and I would allow any user to post the first mesaages only, but no replies....and following all those topics could be hard ....is there no way to make "no replies" as default? |

No, not without changing code. If that's what you want I can change the topic title and move this to the MOD w/O code.

I think you intended to move it to MOD w/O code forum. |

Yeah, I guess you are right. My mistake, and now I cannot correct it, since I have no moderator rights here... |

i know there is a "Posting Restrictions MOD" can do this job easily.(i think it's made by HuwR...) it really a great & useful MOD, but i do'nt know where you can get this mod now. 
maybe you can try getting the HuwR's portal snitz package on HuwR's site, then............. ask help if you have trouble to "extract" this mod. i think the main modified code you need should be in post.asp and post_info.asp these two files.
another way.. turn on moderation feature to all forums, then just as ruirib mentioned, after approving a topic/first post, LOCK it immediately! 
anyway, it really a strange mod request. i'm very wonder what's forum situation you'll need this feature ??  |

a forum dedicated exclusively to advertising posts....please look at www.aquariabiz.com
I need to avoid users reply to advertising post, also to not allow eventual polemic thread.....but at the same time I want to leave any user free to post advertising also for commercial people not able to use Internet
....just checked...that MOD doesn't exists in HuwR's site  |

| I did update posting restrictions to be used for 3.03. It was basically instructions in a text file. I will try to find if I have that file somwhere. |

File: post_info.asp
Lines: 812-813
Find the following statements:
if Request.Form("lock") = 1 and ForumChkSkipAllowed = 1) then
strSql = strSql & ", 0 "
Modify the above statements as below:
if (Request.Form("lock") = 1 and ForumChkSkipAllowed = 1) Or _
(Forum_ID >= lowestForumID) then
strSql = strSql & ", 0 "
Lines: 1000-1002
Find the following statements:
if Request.Form("lock") = 1 and ForumChkSkipAllowed = 1 then
strSql = strSql & ", T_STATUS = 0 "
end if
Modify the above statements as below:
if (Request.Form("lock") = 1 and ForumChkSkipAllowed = 1) Or _
(Forum_ID >= lowestForumID) then
strSql = strSql & ", T_STATUS = 0 "

File: config.asp
Add the following statement in config.asp.
Const lowestForumID= 1

I have an idea about that, add after line number 1101 in post.asp:
'# Subscribe checkbox end ##
this line:
if strRqMethod = "Topic" or strRqMethod = "TopicQuote" then Response.Write "<input name=""lock"" type=""hidden"" value=""1"">"
It should Auto lock every post once a user Posts a message, while giving moderators the ability to unlock it.
Edited it because i missunderstood you and I thought you wanted to allow one reply, If you need this to work only on a certin forum in your board, ask and I'll post the changes needed |

rabufo it should not be different for 3.4.3 except for line numbers.
If that is for every topic in any forum than what David K suggested would be Ok.

Const advertisingForumID = [Forum ID of Advertising Forum]
this means I can block the reply for 1 forum only, right??
isn't possible to block replies for ALL forums at the same time? Couldn't I write there ALL Forums ID?
