Okay, so I have a classified section on my website. I want to make it so that users need at least 25 posts to be able to post in the classifieds (unless they are a paid member). Is there a way to easily do this?
Let's say I want to apply this to all Registered users. Can I revoke the permission for the Registered group to post in the classified forum and then after 25 posts make it so that all Registered users automatically upgrade to say 'Super Registered' users which then have the ability to post in the classified forum?
Additionally I would create a paid member group that bypasses this altogether so they don't need 25 posts to start s new thread in the classifieds.
Here's a cleaner and simpler solution to accomplish this via a 3rd party add-on. This has been tested by me personally, and works like a charm. It's also very, very simple, and incredibly lightweight.
