Can someone help me with modifying a IPB mod?

Hello all,
I was looking for a mod which impose a restriction of number of posts needed on downloading attachments for IPB 2.3.0 (latest release).
can someone help me getting that?
I found a similar mod for IPB 2.1.x but that is not working with the latest version.

I already have searched ize, ips and many other invision service sites/forums but failed to get any response.

I can provide you the IPB 2.1.x compatible version of the mod for your reference.
I already informed the original coder of this mod and he was readily agreed for this as he stopped coding mod for IPB.

With Regards
Abhik

 

Well, I don't have the original mod that you're looking for. But I can make one that have the same effect.

1. Open file sources/action_public/attach.php

2. Find:

$this->class_attach->show_attachment( $attach_id );

PHP:

Replace with:

		if($this->ipsclass->member['posts'] >= $this->ipsclass->vars['posts_require_dl_attachment'])
        {
		    $this->class_attach->show_attachment( $attach_id );
		}
        else
        {
            $this->ipsclass->lang['posts_required'] = "You need {$this->ipsclass->vars['posts_require_dl_attachment']} posts to download this attachment";
            $this->ipsclass->Error( array( 'LEVEL' => 1, 'MSG' => 'posts_required' ) );
        }

PHP:

3. Saved upload.

4. Login to your ACP -> Tools & Settings then click on Add New General Setting

Setting title: Posts required to download Attachment.
Setting Desc: Posts required to download Attachment.
Setting Group?: Topics posts & polls recommended.
Setting Type?: Text input
Setting Key?: posts_require_dl_attachment
Setting Current Value?: How many post do you want your member to have in order to download attachment.

The rest leave as default.
Save changes.

You're done.
