##
## Mod title: Display Post/Reply topic for guests
##
## Mod version: 1.0.0
## Works on PunBB: 1.2.x
## Release date: 2005-11-27
## Author: Daniel Moxon (http://programming-designs.com)
##
## Description: Display Post new topic / Post reply links for guests
## and direct them to the login page instead of displaying nothing.
##
## Affected files: viewforum.php
## viewtopic.php
##
## Affects DB: No
##
##
## Notes: The usefulness of this is so that guests don't get confused and
## will have the opportunity to login/register. If they login, it will automatically
## redirect them to the page they were at previously. (This is by default.)
## This mod should work on all releases but has only been tested on v1.2.10, is a
## very simple mod.
##
## POLL USERS: If you use the poll mod, you will need to replace the
## text with alternate information. To find out what you the text with,
## find the first "$post_link =" text in both viewforum.php and viewtopic.php
## and copy the text until you reach the first semicolon ";"
##
## This is essentially what the mod does, just with the original files
## provided with PunBB.
##

## own risk. Backup your forum database and any and all
## applicable files before proceeding.
