appologies if I'm being thick or anything, I have looked for this but cant find anything out about it.

I've had a few moderators who have been bumping up their post counts by themselves by changing the number in their profiles.

I want to reset these back to what they should be but cant find out how to anywhere without guessing an approximate figure! I tried the resync post count option but that doesnt work.

is there any way to do this or a mod or anything to hand?

Thanks in advance

Kev

The forum itself doesn't have this ability, you will have to write the code yourself, or hope that someone writes a mode for this.

Change the code for the field on line 1686 of register.asp to include the readonly attribute
<input type="text" name="posts" size="4" maxlength="7" value="<% = lngPosts %>" READONLY/>

or else change it from type="text" to type="hidden" and include <% = lngPosts %> at the end of the above code (less the readonly part) and this will keep the info within the form.

It can still however be modified by saving the page locally and modifying the file and then submitting the form but it should stop them.

there's a mod that displays user statistics in their profile... it shows how many *actual* posts they have in the database and displays the results... you could try that and then you'd get an accurate reading..
