is there anybody that made or ha ve some ideas to make a function similar to edit topic, that instead to allow u to add and edit the prevoius topic, allow u to only add some text or images without the possibility to edit the previous things ????
it would be very nice, so the people cannot modify so easly that they wrote.
is it clear??
bye ste |

I don't remember seeing an add-on like this anywhere, but it would make a nice MOD I'd say  |

just curious but whats the point of that?
I know what your saying but what logical reason would there be for this? if someone has to edit something, they made a typo or something, they can edit the topic.
If they want to add to their post, they can edit the topic and leave the original stuff there... |

| agreed... adding to a post is considered editing. why re-invent the wheel? what differences or enhancements will be obtained? |

in some fields isn't allow to modify the original post, but only add something; at least i need it and i'm thinking how to make it.
moreover i often read on the net that a lot of people get angry cause somebody edit the post changing the argument or the meaning of the post; it create a ot of confusion. So i don't think it's a so stupid thing.
what do u say, is it so difficult? from where can i start? "editing"  the reply.asp page??

When another person edits the post, chances are they're a moderator or administrator, as they are the only allowed to edit posts besides the original author.
It is the right of the admin/mod to edit the content of the post in order to maintain the boards, thats the whole point... I dont think I get what your trying to say. |

There is an edit/delete time limit mod here. Someone posted another at the bottom of the thread.
You can set the edit time to 0, but that would affect all posts and wouldn't allow for adding on.
I took a quick glance and you should be able to do this by adding a field to the forum table in the db. Then you can turn it on/off when you create/edit a forum. Then you can control individual forums. I think all the changes needed are in post.asp.
If you need help let me know. |

I simply don't wanna that people change the old post, and when they wanna change something, oh well they can only add something.
is it an impossible mod???
i'm pretty newbie so i don't know from where to start. I think i've to follow the edit mod, only changing something. In fact in method=edit in the message field is possible to read and modify the old message.
It would be enough to save the old message in a variable and have the message field empty. So the user can write the text to add, and than add the new text to the varibale. somethng like in the Injection mod in post_info.asp
txtMessage = txtMessage & .....
could it work??
bye
