Hi guys after seeing so many people trying to implement a function in MYBB forum script that will block any post if the message or title doesn't meet the requirements set by the Admin. We are going to create a plugin that will require a user to input a number of characters no less than specified when creating new topic/thread.
MYBB has a function to limit the MAX number of characters and function for minimum amount of characters but it affects all posts and doesn't really work with subject/title.
The way this plugin works is it stops any attempt to post or edit new topic or thread if the message or title is less than minimum characters required.
Save this file as minchar.php and upload it to: ./inc/plugins then go to your Admin Control Panel >> Plugins and activate it.
To change subject/title minimum character length edit this code:

That is it ladies if you have further questions please feel free to ask.
