Hi, I would like to see a feature where you could create custom groups and set limits to number of posts for that group. And once a member passes a post limit they are automatically upgraded to the next group that would give them more access to what ever you have set permissions for.

It could work the same as the current rank system but for groups........

If you didn't want to use this feature you would simply set the post limits to 0.

Any other thoughts on this would be great.

Cheers,
Booga.

Sounds like a "Karma System". Have a search as I think there has been discussion on the topic.

"Karma System"?? I'm not sure what you mean. Can you please explain this.

Thankyou

Re: No. of Posts = Group Upgrade

As in this thread it is a way to elevate rights based on some criteria like votes or post count. This is a little different than simply # of posts but could be used for that too.

The custom avatar setting uses a post count and is maybe a place to start looking. But it would really need to be an admin function to upgrade users group membership based on a post count. Or a cron job to do it automagicaly.

Just ideas on how to do it. I haven't heard of it being done but the Karma System seems to be close in function.

there is a hack for phpbb to enable group & rank upgrade based on post count. maybe the implementation could be looked at (vanilla phpbb, not XOOPS phpbb)
