Thanks a lot for the greate add-on you post her for free

I have noted one thing in this add-on, when the input is zero "0" the add-on dosen't catch the count and the min-limit is baypassed. In other word if I set titles min lenght to 5 and I create a new thread and the title input set to "0" and click post it doesn't give an error to tell you need 5 chars fot title.

Thanks

One more thing, in Service/Thread/Editor.php Why the $thread = null, you should remove the null otherwise when editing the 1st post the title chars lengh will not be pass trough the cheking code.

Users can easily bypass this by quoting replies, could you please add the ability to disable this from happening?

Do you have any update? Also add option disable Quoted only reply and smile only reply. As well exclude smileys to count towards minimum characters.

@Paul R Heya Paul, took a look at this add-on. The checkboxes for turning the options on/off don't actually appear to work.

There's also a number of typos and weird grammar I'd be happy to help fix.

That's a shame. Well either way I fixed the checkboxes and English for myself lol

@HappyWorld great work, although is it a quick fix to strip all emojis?

Anyone got any idea why this plugin incorrectly flags up a short message sometimes when a mod trys to close a thread?
