(php) any help appreciated

I don't know anything about php and was wondering if someone could help me with this problem.

I would like members of my site to have a certain post count to be able to access my wf-downloads module. And if they don't have enough posts, they are redirected to a page that says "sorry, you need 10 posts to access this area".

Is there a relatively easy way to accomplish this perhaps by adding some code to the wf-downloads index page?

If $user.posts < 10 Then
redirect to NotEnoughPosts.html




can someone at least point me in the right direction?

I'm no php expert, but I found this section of code in edituser.php:
Quote:

if ($xoopsConfigUser['avatar_allow_upload'] == 1 && $xoopsUser->getVar('posts') >= $xoopsConfigUser['avatar_minposts']) {
include_once 'class/xoopsformloader.php';


Which basically checks to see if custom avatars are allowed, and if they are and the minimum post level is ok, it allows you to go to the avatar uploader form.

Not sure how useful this will be, or where exactly you would put it, but it's a start :)

in modules/wfdownloads/header.php

add this code just above $myts = & MyTextSanitizer :: getInstance(); // MyTextSanitizer object

if (!$xoopsUser->getVar('posts') >= 10) {
    redirect_header("../../index.php", 2, _MD_WFD_NEEDMINPOSTS);
    exit();
}


then add this line just above ?> in wfdownloads/language/english/main.php

define("_MD_WFD_NEEDMINPOSTS","You Need A Minimum Of 10 Posts To Access Downloads");
