ahh right cool.
What are you using to dissallow rep in those forums if I may ask?
A plugin at the
showthread_start hook matching forumids and setting
$show['reputationlink'] = false should disable showing the button but still show the rep dots
Code:
$no_rep_forums = array(1,2,3,4);
if (in_array($threadinfo['forumid'], $no_rep_forums))
{
$show['reputationlink'] = false;
}
Not tested (might need to be placed in a postbit factory hook) & technically you could then still give rep via manually created url typed into the address bar but not showing the button may be a more user-friendly choice if the option isn't there
