Adsense as second post. 2 Sizes - Big for guests, small for members
-----------------------------------------------------------------
This hack is for forums that use the standard Postbit Template
If you use the postbit_legacy template >>
click here <<
What this hack does:
This modification displays adsense as second post in every thread.
Guest see a post like adsense with a product Referral (firefox in this code) and a large rectangle as post content. Members only see a standard banner so they don't get annoyed by the big advertising. I also included an information for guests, that they see a different not so disturbing ad if they register. This serves to purposes, one is to get more members to register of course the second purpose is to blend the advertising better into the post layout.
ADD-ON:
In addition you can add a Google Adsense link unit as last post of a thread on any page for members and guests. This advertising will only show if the thread has more then one post so that it does not show 2 advertisings directly below each other in case that the thread has no replies yet. Google Adsense has updated its ToS so that you are now allowed to use up to three link units on one page. So if you already use my "Adsense Link Unit in Navbar" Mod there woun't be a problem.

IP_NoRegister! Block problem IPs or IP Hosts from registering on your site!
---------------------------------------------------------------------
This script is basically the same code used for my IP_NoView! hack but was created because a member asked me to modify the script to block specific IPs or IP Hosts from Registering.
How this works
This works through the use of three settings inside the AdminCP >> vBulletin Settings >> Ip_NoRegister! These settings include an ON/OFF switch, a list of blocked IPs, and a List of blocked IP Hosts.
If the system is on, a pluggin at the start of Register check the IP and IP Host of guests and compare them to the array of blocked IPs. If the guest that is trying to register has an IP that matches, then the system generates an error letting them know that the Administrator has blocked registrations by guests with their IP address.
Users Can Hide Posts From Unregistered Browsers
--------------------------------------------------
Requested by a forum member because of someone who had been banned continuing to nose around the forum as a Guest and I thought it was a sufficiently neat idea to be worth making known to the masses. All users have to do is choose to hide their posts to unregistered browsers (and search engines) in their UserCP. Sort of like a custom Tachy for privacy. Screenshot at the bottom!
INSTRUCTIONS
OPEN:
AdminCP > User Profile Fields > Add New User Profile Field
Add a new Single-Selection Menu then fill in the following settings:
Title: Hide my posts from Unregistered Browsers and Search Engines
Options: (Make sure they are in this order!)
No
Yes
Set Default: Yes, but no First Blank option
Field Required: No but display at registration
Field Editable by User: Yes
Private Field, Field Searchable on Members List, Show on Members List: All No. (Unfortunately you must make this a non-private field or the change won't register with Guests)
Display Page: Options: Log In/Privacy
Save the page and make a note of the field number assigned to your Custom Field, which is shown on the User Field Manager page next to the display number. If this is your first Custom Field then your field number will be 6. In the following template edit, change the X in fieldX to the number of your Custom Field.
OPEN:
UserCP > Styles & Templates > Edit Templates > Postbit(_legacy)
FIND: (shouldn't be tricky, it's the first lines )
Code:
Code:
<table class="tborder" id="post$post[postid]" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr>
<td class="thead" $post[scrolltothis]>
REPLACE WITH:
Code:
<table class="tborder" id="post$post[postid]" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<if condition="$post['fieldX'] == Yes AND is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 1)">
<tr>
<td>
This user has chosen to hide their posts from Guest browsers.
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<else />
<tr>
<td class="thead" $post[scrolltothis]>
FIND: (Should be equally difficult, it's the last lines)
Code:
<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="profile.php?$session[sessionurl]do=addlist&userlist=buddy&u=$post[userid]"><phrase 1="$post[username]">$vbphrase[add_x_to_buddy_list]</phrase></a></td></tr>
</if>
</table>
</div>
<!-- / post $post[postid] popup menu -->
REPLACE WITH:
Code:
<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="profile.php?$session[sessionurl]do=addlist&userlist=buddy&u=$post[userid]"><phrase 1="$post[username]">$vbphrase[add_x_to_buddy_list]</phrase></a></td></tr>
</if></if>
</table>
</div>
<!-- / post $post[postid] popup menu -->
And you're done! You can of course change the post-subtitute message to anything you like but you can't hide a post entirely because it breaks the formatting of the page so the table row must remain.

$forum[subforums]
</select>
</form>
<!-- Subforum pull-down menu --------------------------------------->
Step 2. Open:

Replace the templates with:
Code:
<!-- Subforum pull-down menu --------------------------------------->

Hide Contact Information From Guests
-------------------------------------
What does it do?
Hides contact information from guests, including PM, email and website details, age and birthday, and Instant Messaging.
It is removed from everywhere that it appears.
How do I install this?
Download the attached file and follow the (lengthy) instructions.
You just said the instructions are lengthy. What do you mean?

vBshout Automatic Pruning *ALL VERSIONS*
-------------------------------------------
NOTE: Does not work with Inferno vBshout
What does it do?
This addon will automatically prune (remove all shouts) from the vBshout Shoutbox.
*You can set the time when the product will prune the Shoutbox.
How do I get vBshout?
vBshout 2.0
vBshout 2.1
.: Installation :.
1. Upload pruneshout.php to your /includes/cron/ folder
2. Import the product product-shoutbox_prune.xml
.: Upgrading :.
Upgrading from 1.0 / 1.0
1. Upload and overwrite /includes/cron/pruneshout.php
2. Import the product product-shoutbox_prune.xml (Make sure overwrite is turned on)
.: Configuration :.
By default the shoutbox will prune every Sunday night at 11.59pm
If you wish to change this proceed to the following steps.
1. On your admincp find Scheduled Tasks. Expand the group and then click on Scheduled Task Manager
2. Find Shoutbox Pruning and select Edit from the dropdown menu, then click go.

Template Modification System
-------------------------------
Template Modification System
Description
This modification allows easy management of template modifications.
Hack authors can define the necessary template modifications for their products.
When exporting a product, all template modifications assigned to this product
in MASTER style will be embedded into the product XML and imported on the
end-user vBuleltin installation automatically if TMS is available.
Alternatively, it is also possible to create separate XML files for template modifications.
This way, 3rd parties can provide Template-Modification XL files for existing hacks.
Hack authors can also export standard template modification instructions as
textfiles to package them with their hacks, which allows users that do not
have TMS to also install them
In case the author defined modifications do not work (eg. the user uses a custom style),
the users can easily customize the modifications for their style(s).
TMS modified templates transparently, e.g. all Templates can still be modified
manually in style manager - they will appear unchanged there.
System Requirements
This Modification requires MySQL 4.1 or higher - it does not work with MySQL 4.0!
If you use MySQL 4.1 series, MySQL 4.1.10 or higher is required
If you use MySQL 5.0 seriesn, MySQL 5.0.3 or higher is required
vBulletin Compatibility
Those asking for a vBulletin 3.7 release will be feathered, tared and blown up - this is the vBulletin 3.7 release.
The same goes for those asking if it is compatible with vBulletin 3.6.whatever - it is compatible.
Branding:
Please not that TMS puts a small branding/copyright notice in footer - see readme.txt for further details.
