[AddonsLab] Post Limit Per Node 2.8.1

Fixed: clicking the Post thread button no longer shows "The requested forum could not be found" — the forum chooser opens as usual.

This release improves limit messages and fixes several cases where posts were counted incorrectly or limits did not apply as expected.

NEW

Custom URL for limit messages
Limit messages can now link to a rules, FAQ, upgrade, or other custom page. Normal XenForo permission errors remain unlinked.

Better message for zero allowance
Members with an allowance of zero now see the add-on's limit message instead of XenForo's generic permission error.

FIXED — LIMIT CALCULATION

Empty forum lists could disable reply limits
Include/exclude settings with an empty forum list are now handled correctly without disabling normal reply counting.

New forums could escape limits
Creating, editing, or deleting a forum now immediately refreshes the forum list used for limit calculations.

Closed threads could be counted incorrectly
Closed-thread exclusions are now determined by each thread's own forum.

Unapproved content could incorrectly use an allowance
Unapproved threads and replies no longer count toward posting limits.

"Exclude closed threads" could not be disabled
Unticking the option now correctly turns the exclusion off.

FIXED — MESSAGES AND COUNTDOWNS

Countdown could use the wrong post
The wait time is now calculated from the post that actually frees the member's next available slot.

Countdown could show an incomplete message
Expired countdowns no longer display messages such as "You can post in this thread in" without a time.

Last allowed thread did not refresh the page
Creating the final allowed thread now refreshes the page and displays the limit/countdown, just like replies.

Exempt members were not tracked correctly
Thread authors and members already participating in a thread are now tracked correctly while remaining exempt there.

Thank you!

This update fixes a phrase-display conflict that occurred when using our add-on alongside [OzzModz] Thread Reply Button: No Permission Error Display and [OzzModz] Thread Reply Max Posts In Thread Permission.

In certain cases, our add-on incorrectly replaced a message from those add-ons. The correct message is now displayed consistently.

Thank you!

This release fixes a XenForo 2.3 compatibility issue where the limit message was not appearing at the top of the thread page.

This release resolves “insufficient privileges” showing at the forum/thread top location even when the user can actually post/reply.

Added new options to display restriction messages for posts and threads at the top of thread list and post list.

We have tested the add-on on XenForo 2.3 and it works. Feel free to upgrade and report any issues.

Thank you!

This version introduces a new option, that enables cross-category check for user threads and posts.

If this option enabled, only a given number of threads/posts will be allowed across all categories defined in the option "Category-based check ID list". If disabled (the default), the limitation will apply to each category separately.

This version fixes a bug with post submission always causing a redirect to the latest post instead of showing the post immediately, as per XenForo default behavior.

The reason the redirect was implemented was to show users, that they have hit their limit on number of posts, and the redirect was meant to be executed only when users hit their limit. It was, however, redirect in all cases, even if users have permission to post without any limitations. With this update, we kept the redirect but only for the case, when user hits their limit with the submission of the current post, so we redirect them to that post to make it clear to the user, that they can't submit another reply again.

This version fixes a bug on XenForo 2.2 which would result in search forums not working with category-based check option

Thank you!
